Zhejiang is the birthplace of Wang Yangming mind,and it is also the place where Wang Yangming first established his gateway.Whether it is in terms of time or number,the Wang Yangming school of Zhejiang is very dominant in the spread of early Yangming school.The idea of ready-made innate is an important concept in Wang Yangming’s psychology,which was first proposed by Wang Longxi,a disciple of Wang Yangming.The origin of ready-made innate thoughts is specifically traced back to Mencius’ theory of innate,Lu Xiangshan’s theory of heart and Yangming’s theory of innate.Wang Longxi and Qian Xushan are both important representatives of the Wang Yangming school of Zhejiang.Although Zhou Haimen is disputed on the textual research of the school,the author has also classified he as the Wang Yangming school of Zhejiang based on previous studies and ideological approaches,Regard he as the main successor of Longxi’s thought.Longxi’s doctrine of innate is inherited from Yangming and has its own development.The most representative is its "four nothingness" and’ready-made innate",which are complementary to each other.Qian Xushan,as the antagonist of Wang Longxi’s thought,is actually similar to Longxi in the stance of recognizing "no good or no evil" and the standpoint of ready-made innate.The difference between the two is more reflected in the tendency of practice theory.Zhou Haimen,as an important successor of Longxi’s thought,is well versed in the idea of the unity of Yangming,and has a deeper inheritance and promotion of the purpose of "no good or no evil".There is also a tendency for Qian Xushan and Wang Longxi to unite.Longxi and Xushan both advocated the presence of the innate knowledge on the basis of recognizing the ontology of innate knowledge,but Longxi said that "ready-made innate" is to promote the noumenon of innate knowledge to the level of "nothingness".Working from the congenital noumenon,although Longxi advocates "nothingness",he does not ignore the "being".On the premise of affirming the present of the innate knowledge,he proposes sincerity of the will in experience and advocates extending innate knowledge from one will.While Xu Shan mentions "ready-made innate",although he understands the innate noumenon of no good or no evil,but when it is affirmed that innate knowledge is capable of knowing what is wrong,he advocates putting practice on "things" to appeal.It is inevitable that there will be some omissions when practicing hard in the heart.You can’t talk about the extending innate knoeledge by leaving the human relations and things.Therefore,the study of Xushan focuses on the practical level and is the doer.Zhou Haimen,as a disciple of Wang Longximen,not only has a deeper understanding of Longxi’s "Four Nothingness",but also has a deeper emphasis on the ready-made innate knowledge,and is also a believer in Yangming’s holism thought.Haimen believes that under the inner role of innate knowledge,holding hands and walking are all ways.Therefore,he also promotes self-knowledge,self-confidence,and self-sufficiency.This article mainly starts from the two levels of noumenon and practice,and discusses the presentation and development of ready-made innate ideas within the scope of the Wang Yangming school of Zhejiang.The research is mainly based on the inheritance idea of Wang Longxi to Zhou haimen.Some of Xushan’s thoughts were compared,and they were also compared and analyzed with the thoughts of some scholars inside and outside the Wang Yangming school,aiming to explore the development of existing innate knowledge thought and some derived problems,so as to reveal the basic connotation of ready-made innate thought.
