评朱熹对佛教心说的批判

Zhuxi’s Criticism on Buddhism’s Discussion about Heart

朱熹用心统性情和人心听命于道心,对佛教的"以心观心"和"作用是性"进行了批评。朱熹认为,佛教的"作用是性"就是缺乏本体的把持,只在用处的末端的为所欲为。而"以心观心"则是"如口吃口,如目视目",是不符合逻辑的行为。然而,朱熹提出的"道心"主宰"人心"所依据的客观之理,是个求真的过程,离"圆善"和究竟"天理"依然有一段距离。佛教观心说对于理学依然有可以借鉴的地方。

Zhu Xi criticizes on Buddhism’s discussion about“observing the heart through the heart”and“action is essence”.Zhu Xi thought that“action is essence”lacks the control of ontology,and“observing the heart through the heart”is not logical.The objective principle on which the"Tao heart"dominates"human heart"proposed by Zhu Xi is a real process,and still some distance away from the"perfect good"and the"heavenly principle".The Buddhist philosophy is still worthy of reference for neo-confucianism.Buddhist philosophy is still worthy of reference.
