塞内卡:塞内卡道德书简·摘录 12

塞内卡《塞内卡道德书简》· Seneca's Morals · 认知 · 哲学 · 健康 · 行动

Now, to sum up what is already delivered, we have showed what happiness is, and wherein it consists: that it is founded upon wisdom and virtue; for we must first know what we ought to do, and then live according to that knowledge. We have also discoursed the helps of philosophy and precept toward a _happy life_; the blessing of a good conscience; that a good man can never be miserable, nor a wicked man happy; nor any man unfortunate that cheerfully submits to Providence. We shall now examine, how it comes to pass that, when the certain way to happiness lies so fair before us, men will yet steer their course on the other side, which as manifestly leads to ruin.

白话

核心是:幸福建立在智慧和德行上,先知道该做什么,再按所知去生活。塞内加总结前面讨论:哲学和教诲有助于幸福生活,良心安宁是福,好人不会悲惨,恶人不会幸福,顺应天意的人不会不幸。接着他提出新问题:既然幸福之路明明摆在眼前,为什么人们偏要走向毁灭?这提醒我们,知道道理不等于会走对路,关键在是否真正按知识行动。做法是:检查自己知与行之间的差距,找出明知故犯的地方并改正。

上下文

塞内加在《道德书简》中承上启下,总结幸福论后转向探讨人为何明知故犯。
