Also the blossom of the metaphysics and the Mahayana prajna learn were the culture background of Sengzhao’thought.The thought of the Metaphysics was one of the most important stages in the development history of Chinese culture,which connect not only the Taoist in the Qin dynasty,but also Buddhism in the dynasty of East Jin,even in the Tang Dynasty,until the establishment of the Confucian in the Song and Ming dynasty,especially influence the development of Buddhism and the Mahayana prajna learn in the dynasty of sixteen countries and East Jin,which came up the situation of the mixture of the metaphysics and the Buddhism.In other words,the thought of metaphysics of Wangbi and Heyan gave the thought precondition for the Mahayanan prajna learn blossom in East Jin.Another special culture basement of the thoughts of Sengzhao was the mixture of the metaphysics and the Mahayana prajna learn.Both had the same parts in its system.We can see that Buddhism also had some different charateradtics compared with metaphysics,such as Buddhism advocated getting out of the society,but metaphysics didn’t think so.So exactly speaking,Buddhism at that time was the mixture of Buddhism and metaphysics.If there were no blossom of metaphysics,the Mahayana prajna learn at that time couldn’t rise up suddenly.
