A Study On Wang Fuzhi's Theory Of Qi

The important feature of Wang Fuzhi's philosophical thought is the emphasis on Qi(?).The focus of this study is to explore the source of the thought of Wang Fuzhi's theory of Qi,as well as Wang Fuzhi's Ontology,Cosmology,Theory of human nature.There are two main sources of thought in Wang Fuzhi's theory of qi:one is the philosophy of Yijing(??),and the other is zhang zai's thought of Qi.In Wang Fuzhi's view,Yijing reveals the world's"endless life".Everything in the universe is an organic whole.Everything is in the process of movement and change.The world is"moving".This"moving"is rooted"Taiji"(??)that forms the universe and everything.In this way,he put Zhu Xi's still-moving metaphysical world of"Li"into a dynamic world.Wang Fuzhi believes that Zhang Zai's thought not only points out that all things originate from the ontology of Taixu(??),but also further explains the problems of life and death of all things.On the ontology,Wang Fuzhi believes Taiji is arche of Qi,it is invisible but real.He uses it as the theoretical basis,he criticized Taoism's and Buddhism's thought.Starting from the thought that noumenon and phenomenon are unified,wang fuzhi reversed the viewpoint that "Li is important and Qi is humble".In his opinion,Li is attached to the Qi,which can be seen through Qi.Wang Fuzhi attaches great importance to the role of Qi in opening up the metaphysical Tao and Li,that is,although the metaphysical Tao and Li restrict the Qi and things,But if there is no Qi,the metaphysical Tao can not be formed into the real human morality.In essence,both Tao and Li must present and demonstrate their practical value through Qi and Qi(?).Therefore,Qi(?)and Tao cannot be separated,so is Li.In Cosmology,Wang Fuzhi believes that Taiji is the origin of Qi,and everything is formed by the metaphysical noumenon.Taiji,though is empty,but can transform all things without hindrance,so it can also be called Shen(?).The transformation of heaven and earth is the mystery of Taiji.Therefore,Wang Fuzhi's transformation of Qi is also called"Shen-hua"(??).According to Wang Fuzhi's cosmological theory of energy change of Qi,everything exists after the Taiji transformation.Therefore,in terms of the relationship between Tao and Things,Li and Qi,Xing and Shen must be manifested in Qi.In The theory of human nature based on the Qi,in Wang Fuzhi's view,Xing(?)originates from the metaphysical Taiji,while in the realization of Xing(?),the physical Taiji can only be realized as the concrete human nature after the change of Qi,so we can't talk about the human nature without Qi,From the viewpoint of Qi theory,Wang Fuzhi holds that Xing is the principle of Qi.Although the metaphysical Taiji has both Qi and Li,it is invisible.so Qi can only be seen when it is transformed into the Qi and things.In fact,the change of Qi is the process of Taiji "One produces thousands Features".In other words,Xing means that the universal "heaven" is divided into different things,and the specific shape also indicates the limitation of Qi,so it can not be restored to one.Therefore,Wang Fuzhi is different from Cheng Zhu's dualism theory of human nature,He tries to construct the transcendental elements of human nature in the physical nature through the thought of "succeeding Good and completing nature" and "nature growing up every day".
