从阳明心学理路透视儒家关系伦理

Perspective of Confucian Relational Ethics from Yangming’s Philosophy of Mind

儒家关系伦理一直面临着“孔子困难”的挑战,即其关系伦理是以自我为中心,缺少普遍维度,致使其难以适应现代社会关系伦理。从阳明“致知格物”的心学资源中,或许可以找到破解儒家关系伦理“孔子困难”的路径。“良知”是自我和他人道德关系的基点,道德主体在澄明本有“良知”之后,以“格物”对关系世界中尚未澄明“良知”的他人进行解蔽,进而促成自我与他人的和谐统一,最终达到“至善”。

Confucian relational ethics has always faced the challenge of“Confucian dilemma”.Its relational ethics is self-centered and lacks a universal dimension,making it difficult to adapt to modern social relational ethics.However,from Yangming’s philosophy of Mind of“ZhizhiGewu”,we may find a way to decipher the“Confucian dilemma”of Confucian relational ethics.“Conscience”is the basis of the moral relationship between self and others.After clarifying their own conscience,the moral subject uses“Ge wu”to unmask others who have not yet clarified“Conscience”in the relationship world,thus promoting the harmony and unity of self and others,and finally reached the“ultimate goodness.”
