This paper research Yangming’s mental outlook system from the visual angle of moralsubjectivity，Which is an important philosophical question，to which all philosophers werepay close attention after epistemology appears.The Individual Consciousness can be seen inthe pre-Qin period of YangZhu,who said:“Yang zi pull a hair for me and the world Not toalso”.YangZhu put forward “for oneself”in order to emphasis the individuality. In theconsciousness of Lu Jiuyuan and Wang Yangming,the question or subjectivity is moreprominent,Lu Jiuyuan advocate “The will of the individual”, the later School of him alsopayed more attention to this question.His disciple who called Yangjian emphasis onindividuality,and then turn into Solipsism,he regard oneself as the first principle.Wucheng inYuan dynasty stress the status of oneself,he thought Dao and All things are all Exists in theheart,one’s heart is the master of all things.In history, the three cardinal guides and the five constant virtues put forward by DongZhongshu and the behavior that cheng zhu placed the legality of moral outside has greatlystifles the independence of the individual value.Under the stylized moralizing, individual’s initiative has suppressed. The book of historyof "Ming" recorded the real situation at that time, zhu yuanzhang send out an imperial decreethat the four books and five classics would be as the examination content," all people see thesayings as the standard" and the doctrine of wind is prevalent.As a Moral philosopher,WangYangming thought the moral not comes from the outside world,“To be good” is the nature ofhuman being.He advocate the freedom of conscience, make human’s Moral subjectivitywidely known, he also claimed that “Everyone can be sanctified”. These thoughts has greatsignificance to the Contemporary ethical.Yangming’s philosophy contains a lot of new content,under the new time backgroundand the horizon, the problems to study are increasing more and more, but the study of moralsubjectivity is not sufficient enough, but the literature specializes in yangming’s philosophy ofmoral subjectivity is rare, This paper make a comprehensive interpretation on it, is ainnovation work which can rich the literature, also have certain academic value for deepening the research on yangming’s philosophy. The putting forward of yangming’s Mind philosophyhas its unique social roots, but times have changed, whether these heart-mind theory havebeen out of date, whether still apply, whether can be used as a construction of contemporarymoral philosophy resources, etc., Such problems need to be systematic interpretation andsystemize. Wang Xue integrate several theories, the concept of the Confucianism, Buddhism,Taoism,to which or absorb or criticism, which has close relationship with different theories.In the analysis of Wang Xue, transverse comparison theory can helps to identify each theory’sunique advantages, so as to promote the progress of theoretical research. In addition, thepaper further illustrate the guiding principle of heart-mind theory,that is the generalphilosophy meaning contained in "four teaching",also interprete the philosophical issues,make great efforts to bring the abstract teaching become clear.Although this topic is based on Wang Yangming’s thought, give priority to combing andanalysis it, but it also involves the pre-qin and the idea of a Song and Ming dynasty. As aresult, the excavate of classic is also necessary.It also determines the research methods thatgiven priority to the document research.
