澄怀味像
“澄怀味像”指放空心灵,抛却一切世俗干扰与功利之心,在虚静空明的心境中,观赏、品味由“道”所呈现的物象。“澄怀”是“味像”的前提,唯有不受客观束缚与世俗影响的审美才最接近于“道”。此时,物与我消泯了界限,审美者可由玩味山水而与“道”相通,体会到精神的真正自由与超越。
Clear the Mind to Savor the Image
This refers to emptying one's mind, casting aside all kinds of worldly interference and eliminating the desire for fame and fortune. In a state of thorough, lucid serenity, one can observe and enjoy physical objects as manifested by dao. "Clearing the mind" is the precondition for "savoring aesthetic images." People's appreciation of beauty can approach the infinite dao only by breaking loose from worldly constraints and vulgar influences. At that very moment, the boundary between oneself and external objects disappears. The beholder, feasting eyes on beautiful mountains, rivers, and lakes, achieves communion with dao and thus attains a true mental freedom and transcendence.

Sages illuminate objects by embracing dao, and virtuous people clear the mind to savor the image. (Zong Bing: On the Creation of Landscape Paintings)
