王阳明哲学中的“念”之三义

Three Different Meanings of “Thought” in Wang Yangming's Philosophy

王阳明在自己的表达中多次使用到"念",且含义不尽相同。对"念"含义的分析,有益于加深对阳明思想细节深处的理解。"念"之含义大概有三:居于基础性、优先性地位的本体之念;作为当下呈现的良知发动之念;为我们日用所更多遭遇的意念之念。"念"之三义间有着一定的内在联系,在这种联系中,阳明思想"功夫一贯"的精神得以体现。

Wang Yangming used the ＂thought＂ many times in his works, and the meanings of ＂thought＂ were different. Analyzing the meanings of ＂thought＂ is good for getting a deeper understanding of Wang Yangming＇ s philosophy. There are three different meanings of ＂thought＂ in his works： ontological thought which is elementary and preferential, innate knowledge＇ s thought on conscience which is imnlediately presented, and thought as an idea which is more encountered in our daily lives. There are contacts among the three different meanings of ＂thought＂, and ＂persistent efforts＂ which is the spirit of Wang Yangming＇ s philosophy is presented in the contacts.
