何謂 New Perspective？ 二之二
(問到底 No.6907 2008 0111 Friday)
而蘇格拉底公式的最妙處是，承認了，相信了，
在樓下之上，確是有一個「樓上」了，也是上不了樓
的。蘇格拉底的意見是：唯有無私的人，可能上樓。
而我們說的New Perspective，就是「New」在
這裡。
傳統的舊眼光，通常都是向內看。一事當前，首
先考慮自己。想一想，這事，是不是對自己有利益。
如果有人告訴自己，地球是圓的，不是方的。首先就
要考慮：如果相信了地球是圓的，對自己有甚麼好處？
請注意這裡的小小修辭學：舊眼光只是想到：
「如果自己相信了地球是圓的，有何好處？」
而不是想到：
「如果地球是圓的，有何好處？」
\ 只有眼光看外的人，才可能想到：「地球是不是
圓的？」這才算是有了New Perspective。
孔子是否中國落後的主因？其實也是一個很顯淺
的問題而已。(二之二)

Dear Leechard,
The essay of 9&10.1.08 on the New Perspective(Part I) has addressed my question/doubt on your essay of 3.1.08 well. The concept of 樓上樓下 accurately describe the mentality of human beings, especially about what we usually talk about '層次高低'! Thanks.

Dear Mr Leechard,
I feel hopeless and meaningless to read your articles about "promoting intelligence”. When I consider the clever people among my real life, they were all born to be that clever. They understand themselves are ignorant just because they are clever enough to notice their mistakes, but not suddenly inspired by any articles.
For example, can you imagine some “very not clever” people you know in your real life suddenly become intelligent after reading a magic article? Will a man score higher in IQ test right after he discovers he is ignorant?
It’s absolutely impossible. The fact is just that a man has IQ high enough to discover he’s ignorant, but not the converse.
Can any student readers here dare to say that, their academic results have a great improvement after being inspired by Leechard’s or 蘇格拉底’s writings? From my real-life experience, all top students were NOT inspired by any others’ writing to become top students.
The most important is hardware (and power supply). Software doesn’t help much…
