On The Evolution Of The Relationship Between Confucianism And Mohism

Confucianism and Mohism is has a great influence on Chinese philosophy of the two. In thepre-qin period, RuMo two with "fashionable", but both the Mozi Confucianism and Mencius andXun zi group of ink phenomenon, RuMo phase not always exist. Look from the appearance,RuMo two exist in the relationship, but essentially, RuMo two complementary, in fact, there is acertain relationship. Most of the scholars generally from RuMo a different perspective on andstudy the relationship between the two, and in two critical absorption, acceptance of each othermany opinions are less attention. Mozi through "learn the inheritance of the Confucianunderstanding of Confucianism", the critical deep into the theory of Confucianism, and putforward the own position, founded the theory of Mohism. Mencius, Xunzi monarch ink is todefend the core values of Confucianism, the monarch of the ink at the same time, absorb anddraw lessons from a lot of Mohism, and turn it into his own ideas, so as to enrich theConfucianism. By Mencius and Xunzi’s criticism of Mohism and absorption, makes to theConfucian, mohist essence fusion, and together with other reasons, made by Confucianism andincreasingly, ink is exist in the form of integration of Confucianism, the explicit and implicit.RuMo the relationship between the two can be the widespread concern of scholars, mainly hasthe following several reasons: one is RuMo two in the pre-qin period, together known as the sexy,Confucius and Mozi can be referred to as the "saint". For such two schools, people willinevitably by comparing the similarities and differences between them, to examine therelationship between them, analyze their own thoughts. It is RuMo two attack each other veryfierce, scholars want to come to the conclusion that a more fair, you need to do some in-depthstudy of the similarities and differences between the two theories and analysis. Three isConfucianism has been dominant, and Mencius, and Xunzi criticisms of mozi, it is caused by thelater scholars in touch RuMo theory, can not avoid RuMo relationship.Based on the history and view from the rise and decline of Mohism. Mozi created ink by theConfucianism and learn, this is revealed shortcomings of Confucianism, Mencius and Xunzimonarch ink is established on the basis of the Confucian position and ink absorption,development and enrich the Confucianism. At the same time, and for RuMo complementaryinterpretation, is the basic direction of the development later RuMo relationship. Afterwards,mohist by explicit and implicit, are not cut off from the real, but the disappearance of the schoolof thought forms, mohist actually is integrated into the thoughts of Confucianism and otherforms continue to exist, still have a great effect on the development of Chinese philosophy.Confucianism also due to the absorption and reference of Mohism, more in line with the needs ofthe development of Confucian theory. I think analysis RuMo relations to today’s culturalconstruction has important practical significance.
