Wang Fuzhi's Views Of Transformation Of Qi As The Heavenly Way

In Commentary of Zhangzi'Zhengmeng(Zhangzizhengmengzhu,?????),Wang Fuzhi deepened his understanding about Zhang Zai's doctrine of taixujiqi????.He held that taixu??articulates the body and property of heaven and qi?mainly standing for the transformation of qi as the heavenly way.The former is the explanatory ontological prerequisite of heavenly way and can only be manifested through the later.In Zhuangzijie???,Wang Fuzhi discussed the relationship among them.With the notion of guyizhiyao????,Wang thought heaven can not be seen completely by us.When it is available for us,that is the yao(?,shine)which results from heaven's self-operation that“heavenly brightness sheds lights on heavenly hub”(tianming zhao tianjun?????).Based on these,the chaotic heaven(huntian??)as the concrete manifestation of heavenly way,shows its own distinct significance on some topic,like time and space,heaven and earth,jian?.Wang contended that time and space are not mechanical,not ascribed to the transcendental premise of subject but closely relate to the existence of human beings.Both of them do not subordinate to each other.Heaven and earth construct the realm of human beings'significance through theire speaking and language.Jian actually depict the temporarity od human beings dwelling in transformation of qi.Wang's idea about Chaotic heaven originated from Zhangzai??and Zhu Xi's??cosmological idea which was quite different with the original connotation of this notion in before them.Within Wang's idea,humans can return to taixu??after their death and assists the transformation of qi.This means that humans is not only the species settling in heavenly way but also have been improved their position because ofconnection to taixu.Accordingly,the domination of sovereigns should not just control the masses but comply with self-so of humans beings and other objects which provides them with the opportunity that they can be cultivated by themselves.That is called“letting the world be,and exercising forbearance”(zaiyou tianxia????).
