| Chen Liang’s lifelong academic purpose is to study Wang Ba’s studies to realize the country’s long-term prosperity and stability.However,influenced by his bold and unconstrained character,his academic style shows obvious roughness.In the era of the prosperity of neo-confucianism,Chen Liang holds the banner of the achievement of facts,resolutely resisted the ethos of empty talk about moral life,and tried to return to the tradition of vigorous and enterprising unity of internal sanctity and external authority in Confucianism.Taking this as the starting point,he understood and read the Confucian classics.The application of the principles of Tao is the way to interpret the classics,while the order of the principles is The Analects of Confucius,The Mencius and Chun-Chiu.According to his understanding of the way and order,Chen Liang made a unique interpretation of the spirit of Confucius and Mencius and the purpose of the five classics,which became a solid academic foundation for Wang Ba’s study.Chen Liang’s Wang Ba’s study takes the premise of the body of Tao.In the view of Tao-Qi,he advocates that Tao does not leave the Qi,and believes that the actual connotation of Tao is the current structure state of the system of heaven and man with the three talents as the basic elements,and emphasizes that man is the only factor affecting the existence of Tao.In terms of the nature of the mind,he does not divide heavenly principle and human desires.He believes that if the human heart is not blinded by the selfish desires,all the feelings it produces can be in harmony with the Tao,and the reasonable pursuit of greed can be affirmed.It is precisely because of its prominent value to human beings that Chen Liang stressed that human beings play a key role in the relationship between heaven and human beings and attach importance to human intelligence.Furthermore,it emphasizes that people should exercise their intellectual power to realize the reasonable arrangement of the humane world,and calls on people to recognize the value of flexibility.The highest principle of using flexibility with wisdom is impartiality.Specifically,Wang Ba’s study is to make corresponding gains and losses and adaptations to the political system according to the specific conditions of a specific era,and learn from the reasonable and successful practical experience of previous generations in the system,so that the realistic political system can keep pace with the changes of the past and the present. |
