    Wang Yangming (王陽明) wanted to become a Shengren (聖人) by the method of Zhu xi (朱熹)'s Gewu (格物). But he was frustrated in his ambition to become a Shengren (聖人). His frustration had constantly influenced his life so much so that he developed a Zhu xi (朱熹) Complex. And when Wang Yangming (王陽明) got the doctrine of "Zhi liangzhi(致良知)", he said, this doctrine had been derived from his own existential experience. After all, "Zhuxi (朱熹)" and "Existential experience" are essential for him in making his own thought. Wang yangming (王陽明) has critically examined zhuxi (朱熹)'s thought, and he realized he must create his own cosmology, through all of his life. So I think it was life which Wang yangming (王陽明) wanted to establish by himself independent that of Zhuxi (朱熹)

    In the early 20th Century, the School of Wang Yangming in Korea was classified two streams. One followed Park, Eunshik who advocated it as the new system for the renovation of the Confucianism. The other followed Jung, Inbo who succeeded to the School of KanglHwa. The most important features in this period was not only to seek the way of social reform through the School of Wang Yangming, but also to try to express it as the religious conviction. For example, Daedonggyo which was organized by Park, Eunshik had two bases: the religious movement and the reformative idea of the Confucianism. Although the school of Wang Yangming in those days was not successful, it had the significance in that it was the new possibilities of both thc social and the Confucian reform. It was the concern of the School of Wang Yangming in those days that overcomes moral corruption of Confucian intellectuals. And their works were not ideological but practical. But, actually, the School of Wang Yangming did not reform the Korean society. And what is worse is that rhe conviction of the School of Wang Yangming disappeared with the decline of the Confuciamism

    Wang Yangming (1472–1529), a renowned philosopher, politician, and military strategist of the Ming Dynasty, profoundly influenced Chinese intellectual history with his philosophy of “unity of knowledge and action”. In today’s information age, exploring how digital technologies can modernize the representation of Wang Yangming and make his ideas accessible to contemporary audiences has become a significant endeavor. This paper aims to examine the necessity, methods, and practical applications of constructing Wang Yangming’s modern digital image, with the goal of advancing the dissemination and development of his philosophy in the modern era

    In this article, I explore the relationship between desire and emotion in Descartes, Zhu Xi, and Wang Yangming with the aim of demonstrating 1) that Zhu Xi, by keying on the detriments of selfishness, represents an improvement over the more sweeping Cartesian suggestion to control desires in general; and 2) that Wang Yangming, in turn, represents an improvement over Zhu Xi by providing a more sophisticated hermeneutic of the cosmology of desire

    Comparison of Wang Yangming and Kant on their moral philosophy

    No full text
    In the history of Chinese and Western philosophy, Wang Yangming and Immanuel Kant were concerned with parallel issues in moral philosophy. They established their moral philosophical systems with comparable conceptions of Liang-chi (conscience or an innate sense of right and wrong) and free will as their core, and showed analogous views in prioritizing the moral subject. Due to divergences between Chinese and Western philosophy, and their forms of argumentation and conceptualization, there are significant differences between them. I will analyze how, nonetheless, the categories established by Kant are important to the interpretation of Wang Yangming’s moral philosophy. In this thesis, I will first analyze the ethical subject in the moral philosophical systems of Kant and Wang Yangming, and secondly discuss the value and significance of their self-cultivation theories, which is the original contribution of this thesis.</p

    Human and World: Fichte and Wang Yangming on the Highest Good

    No full text
    In comparative philosophy, the study of Fichte and Wang Yangming has been largely overlooked. This article compares their views on the highest good and their approaches to the human&ndash;world relationship. Fichte sees the highest good as the realization of practical reason, achievable through religious faith and love for God, enabling individuals to transcend sensual desires and unify with God. Religious faith connects individuals to a higher existence, fostering moral actions. Wang Yangming, however, defines the highest good as the manifestation of conscience within, emphasizing internal cultivation and moral practice to achieve the unity of knowledge and action. Fichte&rsquo;s approach relies on religious faith, while Wang Yangming&rsquo;s focuses on self-cultivation. This study reveals the complementarity between Chinese and Western perspectives on the highest good, offering a new lens for cross-cultural dialogue and insights into the complex relationship between humans and the world

    Studying Wang Yangming: History of a Sinological Field

    No full text
    Wang Yangming (1472-1529) and his School of Mind dominated the intellectual world of sixteenth-century Ming China (1368-1644), and his Confucian philosophy has since remained an essential component of East Asian philosophical discourse. Yet, the volume of publications on him in the Western-language literature has consistently paled in comparison to the volume of scholarship on classical Chinese philosophy, modern Chinese philosophy, Buddhism, and Daoism. Studying Wang Yangming: History of a Sinological Field explains the history of writing in the West about the famed Ming dynasty scholar-official. From eighteenth-century French Jesuit books to English-language publications in 2020, this book provides a historical overview and summary of a literature published by scholars attempting to grapple with one of the most influential Confucians in the history of China, East Asia, and the world
