Memories, Dreams, Reflections by C.G. Jung
Nice reading, a good example of how a person pursues individuation. The last 3 chapters (X to XII) are worth rereading -- some more open-minded thoughts that Jung did not expose in his scientific works are said here.

宋词三百首笺注,上彊村民(选词),唐圭璋(校注)
选词:不是很好。原因:没有唐五代的词,偏重南宋的长调(比如吴文英的,多晦涩)。
注释:过于简单,该注的也不注,阅读南宋的长调时非常困难。
集评:非常好,可以看出唐圭璋的博识。

The Passion of the Western Mind by Richard Tarnas
写得非常好。第6章尤其精彩。
读康德那一节,科学的信徒们就不会那么100%坚定地认为科学=真理。人类通过认知获得的知识和总结的规律,与其说是外面的客观世界的本质和规律,不如说是人类自己大脑认知的规律。这是因为外来的perception总是经过大脑中的先验(a priori)结构过滤,只有这个先验结构能够理解的perception,才能在大脑中形成idea。所以,我们认知的过程,与其说是对外在的客观世界的了解,比如说是对这个先验结构的了解,这个认知过程进一步促进了这个先验结构的发展。
我并不是否定科学,只是指出它的局限性。
在当代世界,和科学相对立的另一个流派是理想主义,以歌德、黑格尔、荣格为代表。它和科学最本质的区别在于认为这个世界是有spirituality上的意义和目的的,有超越于profane的transcendence的存在。
读黑格尔的时候我非常吃惊,因为我迄今为止的领悟和认识基本上都包含在他的观点里了。想一想,也不奇怪,因为我本来就是荣格一派的。简而言之,我(们)认为这个世界的实体就是神性(说transcendence更准确些)的自体,是他的具体展现,这个世界的发展就是他从无意识向有意识,不断 evolve的过程。这个发展是通过的人类的意识(conscious)的发展来实现的。黑格尔认为发展的终点是perfection,我倒不这么认为,难保这次发展走歪了,夭折了。等下一次宇宙大爆炸再重新开始。
我们的观点是不是可验证的?回答是不能。那为什么我要持这种观点?因为我喜欢。

The Upanishads: Breath of the Eternal Hardcover by Swami Prabhavananda, Frederick Manchester
Pretty good translation.
Not complete translation; I read it to get a taste of Upanishads before diving deep it.

河流的秘密,苏童
写得不错。不是经过时间提炼的唯美,而是充满市俗气息的回忆。苏童文笔有些阴柔,他描写的苏州市井生活别有一番味道。最后面的几篇是短篇小说吧?
