本文以《禮記•樂記》爲研究對象，結合呆教學、美學與治療學，討論〈樂記〉所指出的「詩」、「歌」、「舞」合一的「樂教」審美治療。由「禮」與「美」在根源上爲巫術禮儀，在性質上皆爲使心理臻鈴脆俗境界的同質關係的基礎點上，進而論證「樂」爲個體生命、團體文化乃至天地自然之最深沈的節奏形式，儀式之具備「轉移代罪」與「淨化贖罪」的作用，使得「樂教」充滿了審美治療的意義。藉由儀式所進行的個人心理治療、團體文化治療，最終達致生命與天地的和諧狀態，亦即「中和」的審美境界。

By combining religious study, aesthetics and therapy, this study takes "Chapter of Music-Book of Rites" as a research subject with an aim to exploring into the aesthetic therapy of "musical education" in uniting the "poem", "sons" and "dance" which specified by "Chapter of Music." Sourced from black magic rites, "etiquette" and "beauty" are basic points of homogeneity relationships in nature that makes mentality reaches a state free from worldly ways, further proving "music" as the individual life, group life and, even, the most unfathomable rhythmic mode of the universe and nature. Rites works to give functions of "shifting substitute for sin" and "purgation and expiation," making "musical education" rich in aesthetic therapy. Eventually, it reaches a harmony of life and universe, i.e. the aesthetic state of "neutralization", by means of individual psychotherapy and group cultural therapy through rites.
