王阳明“心即理”的再诠释

A Reinterpretation of Wang Yangming’s “Mind Is Principle”

摘要: “心即理”是王阳明从“朝廷上疏”到“龙场悟道”期间长期思考的结果，亦是王阳明对以往思想的总结之一。“心即理”内涵丰富，以道德义为主，但其知觉义与主宰义的重要性亦不容忽视。同时，“心即理”也是其思想的基础之一。本文主要对王阳明的“心即理”进行了再诠释，并探讨了“心即理”对当代生活的启示。

Abstract: “Mind is principle” was the result of Wang Yangming’s long-term thinking from “submitting memorials to the imperial court” to “attaining enlightenment at Longchang”, and it is also one of Wang Yangming’s summaries of his previous thoughts. The concept of “mind is principle” is rich in connotation, with moral righteousness as the main focus. However, the significance of its perceptual and dominant meanings cannot be ignored either. Meanwhile, “The mind is the principle” is also one of the foundations of his thought. This article mainly reinterprets Wang Yangming’s “Mind is principle” and explores the enlightenment of “mind is principle” for contemporary life.
