镜像阶段理论视域下阳明心学的生命之思

Reflections on the Life Philosophy of Yangming's School of Mind Through Lacan's Mirror Stage Theory

镜像阶段理论是拉康思想的起源性概念之一。本文立足中西哲学比较,以拉康“主体性”构建理论中“镜像阶段”为立足点,从其“前镜像阶段”“镜像发展阶段”“后镜像阶段”三个时期的身心特点与认识规律角度,解读王阳明心学发展中“庭前格竹”“龙场悟道”“良知之悟”三个重要节点的内涵与关系。旨在揭示王阳明建立在“劳思至疾”“吾性自足”“此心光明”三个逐层提升的生命体验基础上的心学构建过程,尝试从新角度认识阳明心学特殊的历史结构和生命体验。

The Mirror Stage Theory is one of the seminal concepts of Jacques Lacan's philosophy.This paper is a comparative study of Eastern and Western philosophies.Applying Lacan's theory of subjectivity,and from the approach of examining the psychological and cognitive characteristics and patterns of the‘Pre-Mirror Stage,’‘Mirror Stage’and‘Post-Mirror Stage’,it interprets the connotations and the relationships of three pivotal moments in the development of Wang Yangming's School of Mind:‘Studying and Contemplation of Bamboo in the Courtyard,’‘Getting Enlightened at LongChang'and‘Awakening to the Conscience',aiming to reveal the construction process of Wang Yangming's philosophy,which is based on the progressively elevated life experiences of‘exhaustive thought leading to illness’,‘the sufficiency of one's own nature’,and‘the brightness of this mind’.The paper attempts to recognize the unique historical structure and life experience background of Yangming's philosophy from a novel perspective.
