Research On The Theory Of Nature Of Mind Of Luo Jinxi

Luo Jinxi is an important figure in the line of Yangming Xinxue and is known as"the only outstanding person of the Taizhou School." The study of Jinxi’s m ind-nature theory is of great significance for a comprehensive understanding of Jinxi’s academics,an in-depth understanding of the relationship between Jinxi and Yangming studies in the middle and late Ming Dynasty,and evaluation of Jinxi’s philosophy in the history of the development of Taizhou school and Song-Ming Neo-Confucianism.On the basis of previous studies,this article takes the theory of mind and nature as the research content,and discusses the philosophical construction and core concern of Jinxi’s thought from two aspects:ontology and self-effort theory.The first part discusses Jinxi’s mental process and ideological background,and discusses Jinxi’s inheritance and development of Confucianism in Song and Ming Dynasties.Jinxi thought not only directly inherited Yan Shannong,but also followed the tradition of Yangming Xinxue.He also inherited Cheng Hao’s doctrine of benevolence and far-reaching Confucius and Mencius philosophy.Therefore,the study of Luo Jinxi’s Xinxue must not only be based on Wang Yangming’s academics.The development of the direction of inheritance of the book requires a systematic and objective sorting out of Jinxi’s ideological inheritance and philosophical development.In this process,Jinxi subscribed to Xinxue,and in the face of the problems of Zhu Zi and Yangming,he established the thinking direction of returning to the traditional Confucianism of the pre-Qin Dynasty,and condensed the courage to reinterpret and understand.In addition,the construction of Jinxi’s thought is closely related to its background.At the time,the school of "Present Conscience" and "Ready-made Conscience" is the most energetic and influential,and it has many disadvantages and benefits.Either the conscience is introduced into the imaginary and the rationale analysis is decomposed to the extreme,or the present is taken at will.and the conscience is introduced into the sentiment.Both of them introduce conscience into the "Guang Jing".How to further develop Yangming’s theory of conscience.and at the same time overcome the shortcomings of mystery and sentiment,has become the basic starting point of Jinxi’s mind and nature.The second part discusses Jinxi’s mind-nature ontology which based on "the heart of a pure child".Jinxi inherited Yangming’s view of the monism of mind and nature.Jinxi believes that "heart" is the name and form of strong establishment,and advocates the interpretation of "the heart of a pure child" with "Sheng Sheng Principle".With "Sheng Sheng Principle" as the link,the heart of the innocent child is the unity of mind and nature,with three connotations of destiny,conscience,and filial piety.It has become a transcendent position that penetrates the metaphysical and the metaphysical,allowing the heavenly virtue and benevolence.There is now an actual mind-nature ontology.This mind-nature ontology is innately present.and present in daily life by the motivation of inexhaustible destiny.The third part discusses Jinxi’s theory of self-cultivation with "filial piety and kindness" as the core."The heart of a pure child" as the noumenon of conscience,and the "filial piety and kindness" as the natural expression of the innocent heart constitutes the main content of Jinxi’s heart and nature.By discussing the specific implementation of Jinxi’s "filial piety and kindness",the characteristics of Jinxi’s self-cultivation theory are explained,and then Jinxi’s correction of academic abuses in the middle and late Ming Dynasty and its relationship with the academic abuses of the late Ming Dynasty’s association.The fourth part is the attribution,characteristics,and evaluation of Jinxi’s theory of mind and nature.This article attempts to discuss Jinxi’s mind-nature ontology and his Gongfu cultivation theory.briefly discussing the attribution and ideological purpose of Jinxi’s theory,and compares it with Yangming School and other schools of post Yangming philosophy.The comparison shows that Luo Jinxi’s "heart of a child" as a sage’s learning is implemented in the life practice of individuals and "filial piety".Use the theory of mind and nature as the moral support and theoretical basis for connecting transcendence and practice,Jinxi emphasizes that filial piety should be continuously pushed and expanded along the path of moral practice from oneself to others,from bottom to top and from home to country,so as to achieve the goal of to Be Ren in the Whole World.
