爱垦评注：感官体验的跨界与澄明

事件，或稱：境遇：Covid-19; 变革先锋（Pioneer-of-Change, WEF 2020）从世纪伟人，日本画家葛饰北斋的一幅画《神奈川冲浪里》中找到正面的领导衝力。葛饰北斋的画作对西洋西洋印象派画家影响深远，最着名者包括梵谷；而梵谷的《星夜》一画，启发了歌手Don McLean写成Vincent （Starry starry night）一曲。故事在每一桩个人突破现实界限、自我弱点的努力中流淌。那是互相对话的、激发的影响力；其过程就是人的创作衝動继续绵延的契机。说深一点，克里斯蒂瓦的“互文性”在哪儿提供着转变的资源。符号资本。

Like the crews in Hokusai's masterpiece, those on the COVID-19 frontlines are today fighting towering waves. But - just as the sailors can spot Mount Fuji - they do so because they have a strong sense of purpose. Theirs, then, is a lesson in leadership for all. （What can this painting tell us about leadership in the COVID-19 era? Jun 1, 2020 WEF）

日本画家葛饰北斋（Katsushika Hokusai，1760－1849），在1999年曾被美国《生活》（Life）杂志，选为过去一千年最重要的百大事件与人物（The 100 Most Important Events and People of the Past 1,000 Years）第86位。换句话说，他是一千年来最伟大的日本人。

體驗使藝術形象具有詩意的超越。根據王國維的《人間詞話》的最初原稿，「出乎其外，故有高致」的「高致」二字原為「元著超超」。意思是當作家的體驗達到「出乎其外」的境界時，所寫事物的根本的性質就會顯著地突現出來，放射出詩意情感的光輝。作家的體驗可以說是一個「悖論」，一方面它要「入」，可另一方面它又要「出」。「出」就是在體驗時的超越。超越可以有好幾層意思：

第一層意思是獲得對對象本身的超越。作家的描寫不受對象本身形體、姿態和顏色等物理性的束縛，而能見出事物的物理性以外的美學意義來。這也就是說作家寫的是平凡的事物，卻能放射出不平凡的光輝。作家所寫的是司空見慣的事物卻能放射出特異詩性光輝。清代文論家葉燮在《原詩·外篇》中說：

 

凡物之美者，盈天地間皆是也，然必待人的神明才慧而見。

 

就是說美是到處都有的，問題在發現。那麼什麼人能發現呢？葉燮認為要有「神明才慧」的人才能發現。實際上「神明才慧」也可以理解為人的一種精神狀態，那就是當作家處於體驗的超越狀態中時，人的神明才慧也就顯露出來，也就有可能從平凡的事物中發現意義和詩美。的確，人的精神可以處於不同的狀態中，當人們處於麻木的狀態中時，就是有靚麗的美，也會熟視無睹。相反，一旦人們進入到體驗的狀態，那麼平日很不起眼的事情也會閃現出詩意的火花。關於這一點，英國浪漫主義詩人柯勒律治說過一段很精彩的話：

給日常的事物以新奇的魅力，通過喚起人們對習慣的麻木性的注意，引導他去觀察眼前世界的美麗和驚人的事物，以激起一種美的超自然的感覺；世界本來是一個取之不盡，用之不竭的財富，可是由於太熟悉和自私的牽掛的翳蔽，我們視若無睹，聽若罔聞，雖有心靈，卻對它既不感覺，也不理解。[12]（P63）

這里所講的就是人們如何從一般的觀察轉到體驗的境界中的問題，在一般的經驗性的觀察中，人們的習慣性的麻木佔了上風，就是對最美的對象也只能視若無睹、聽若罔聞，對美的事物既不感覺也不理解。只有當人們轉到體驗的狀態，那麼那種超越的感覺才會被喚醒，於是獲得一種「內視點」，不是用常人的眼睛去「看」，而是用心靈去「看」，這樣人們就「能從慣常的平凡的事物中見出引人入勝的一個側面」（歌德），從日常的世界中分離出意義的世界、情感的世界，也就是詩意的世界。

Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you.

Traveling is a brutality

Traveling is a brutality. It forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comfort of home and friends. You are constantly off balance.

Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer.
