On the Shendu Spirit of the Subject-introverted Mind in the Confucian Philosophy

Chinese philosophy is a kind of humanism thought. It treats oneness of Heaven and Man and Subject-object fusion, as the basic thinking mode and regards human, its existence, its value and meaning as the key content. Confucian thought is the orthodox thought in China. Its subject inner thinking that treats human as its object became the fundamental characteristic of Chinese traditional thinking. Chinese ancient Confucians created Shendu, as a way of cultivating man's moral character, and it has the distinctive Chinese nation feature. It has involved a long development and evolution. It not only played the important role in ancient moral practice, but also has profound practical significance. Therefore, we should keep up the subject inner thinking in the Chinese traditional thought.
