王艮“学”以至“乐”思想探析

An Analysis of Wang Gen′s Thought of How to Achieve From"Learning"to"Joy"

王艮继承了王阳明“乐是心之本体”的思想,从本体论角度对“乐”进行界定,创造性地揭示了“乐”的生命力特征:一是,“乐”具有自主性,自率其性;二是,“乐”具有能动性,宰万物而主经纶。王艮将“良知之学”区分为两个层次:第一层,个体维度的明明德亲民之学;第二层,人己交互的大人之学。层次不同,为学手段也不同,但是最终目的是回归于本体之“乐”。

Wang Gen inherited Wang Yangming′s idea of"joy as the essence of the heart".He defined"joy"from the angle of ontology,and creatively revealed the vitality characteristic of"joy".On the one hand,"joy"has autonomy over itself.On the other hand,"joy"has the initiative to dominate other things.Wang Gen divided the"Liangzhi Theory"into two levels:The first one,manifesting the clear character of the individual.The second one,the“Daren”study of human interaction.Different levels,different means for learning,but the ultimate goal is to return to the noumenon of"joy".
