Abstract: There has exited leisure since ancient times. Leisure has been endowed with new meanings in modern times. This paper argues that leisure is a kind of self-reflection of human beings on the existing condition, a regression to the nature; a pursuit of human beings of the truth fulness, goodness and beauty, a yearning for freedom and the harmony between human beings and nature. All in all, this paper views the leisure as the spiritual home for human beings.

Key words: leisure, thetruthfulness, goodnessandbeauty, theharmonybetweenmanandnature, spiritualhome
