The era in which Cheng Yi lived was at a time when the doctrines of Buddhism and Lao Xin Xing were prevailing,especially among the Buddhist ideology.The Buddhism Nirvana doctrine emphasizes "out of centrifugation",which has a strong impact on the social order of the Northern Song Dynasty,which is based on the rituals of Confucianism.Against this background,Cheng Yi wrote "The Book of Changes of Zhou Yi" and created a system of "Yi" with "Tianli" as the system.It not only constructed a moral metaphysics for the Confucianism that could compete with the Buddha and the old,but also the ritual law.The stability and reconstruction of social order provide a theoretical basis.Cheng Yi's Yi system is based on the interpretation of "Gua De" in all hexagrams.By enriching the connotations of "Four Virtues" and "Tiandao" and "Humanity",it gives philosophical significance to "Gua De".In the process of interpreting "Gua De",Cheng Yi made three interpretation paradigms of "Gua Name","Gua Yi" and "Gua Cai" to build his own Confucian system.Focusing on "Gua Ming",Cheng Yi described cosmology,"Li Yi fen shui" and other ideas,and explored the endless nature of Tian Li;around "Gua Yi",Cheng Yi built an ethics system with "Tian Li" as its core.The reconstruction of social order provides the theoretical basis of metaphysics;centering on the "Gua Cai",Cheng Yi completed the unity of the "Xianshu" method and the "Righteousness" method of Yi study,and expounded the "one source for the body,and the microcosm is seamless" Philosophical discourse.The three interpretation paradigms of "Gua-Name","Gua-Yi" and "Gua-Cai" all point to Tianli,and the Yi system of Cheng Yi's "Ontology" theory has been established.Cheng Yi's "Ontology" theory of "Yi" academic system has the characteristics of epochalism and universality.Studying the development and evolution of its ethical philosophy and philosophical theory explores the harmony between man and nature and social relations in the context of the socialist era with Chinese characteristics in the new era.Harmony still has important practical significance and practical value.
