论儒学人性论的四个维度

On the Four Dimensions of Confucian Theory of Humanity

儒学是一种作为生活方式的哲学,以人为核心,以修身为根本,追求人格的自我完善。作为一种为己之学和成人之道,儒学人性论中蕴涵着不同的面向:天人合一、继善成性的理论架构指向天成性的维度;即用显体、学以成人的工夫进路蕴藏了生成性的维度;仁礼并重、内圣外王的价值系统展现了构成性的维度;机体主义的形上模式、一体之仁的境界追求彰显了圆成性的维度。通过修身,推动自我人格的不断成长与完善,借此获得根源性的能量去转化家国天下,将自我与他者、个体与社群、德性修养与社会治理有机地沟通融合,充分彰显了儒学"一天人,合外内"的深邃意蕴。

As a philosophy of life style, Confucianism focuses on human, takes self-cultivation as its foundation,and pursues self-improvement of personality. Confueianism＇s theory of humanity contains four dimensions based on Chinese philosophy as shown below. First of all, the theory of the unity of heaven and man pointed to the innate dimension of humanity. Secondly, the path of the perfection of personality through study indicated the generative dimension of humanity. Thirdly, the value system of ＂Being Sage Inside and Being Kingly Outside＂ expressed the consti- tutive dimension of humanity. Finally, the metaphysical model of holism revealed the full dimen- sion of humanity. Individuals cultivate their morality through self-cultivation, which promoted persistent self-perfection of personality, and it provided them original energy to transform the family, the country and the world. Confucianism fused self and the other,individual and communi- ty,moral cultivation and social governance. The most profound implication in Confucianism is that it fused heaven and man, inside and outside.
