A Study For The Term "Mo Ruo Yi Ming" In Zhuang-zi's Thought

The term “mo ruo yi ming” in “On the Equality of Things” of the Zhuang-zi is regarded as one of the core ideas of Zhuang-zi's philosophy all the time,and it is a indispensable perspective that further interpretates “On the Equality of Things”and even the overall Zhuang-zi's philosophy.In general,“mo ruo yi ming” is the practical Wisdom or the epistemological wisdom,whose content is “Tao”.“Ming” is the present manifestation of Tao and the intuitive wisdom of Tao.The argument on the right or wrong is taken as the central issue of “mo ruo yi ming” from the actual context.The argument on the right or wrong in Zhuang-zi's philosophy is associated with two dimensions: from the standpoint of epistemology,it is concerned with the differentation between the true or false;from the standpoint of axiology,it is related with the dispute of value.Based on the logical starting point of the division of the limit and the congnition of the differentation,the argument on the right or wrong tends to be restricted with the concenpt dispute towards “xiao cheng”.Accordingly,it contributes to the binary opposition between Thing and I,man and I,Tao and Language,which is prone to direct truth to the unilateralism,then covering“ming”,further splitting the unified Tao.As a result,its manifestation is not the original situation of thing,but the divisive vision of world.Besides,it hampers man to head for the nature realm.The argument on the right or wrong is colsely involved with the division of the whole world and the perspective of human recognizing world:Man merely sees the distinction of the limitation and differentation of things from the viewpoint of yi wu guan zhi.It leads to the meaningless arguments and the restrictions for the congnition and apprehension of Tao.Therefore,“mo ruo yi ming” aims to dissolve the differentiation of the experience world and the conceptual world by the argument on the right or wrong.The factual method is embodied in the process of the deep unfold of “xin zhai”,“zuo wang” and “qi wu”(the equality of things).It transcends the prsepctive of “yi wu guan zhi” and heads for “yi dao guan zhi”,in particular,the method makes use of the epistemological wisdom to dissolve the binary opposition and differentation of things,and get the realm of the non-rignt and non-wrong.In the wisdom,“mo ruo yi ming”returns to the unity of the original situation and truth of things,and presents the realm of “ming” that “contacts with the spirit of heaven and earth”,and further achieve nature and free.
