Abstract
The reflection on the essence of existence consists of three phases: its identity, difference and contradiction with others. To understand dialectics, with such a reflection method, it can be seen that there are three stipulated rules in the essence of dialectics: the identical phase, as there could not have been the existence of dialectics without man; the opposite phase, as there could not have been dialectics without rational thinking; and contradictory phase, as there could not have been dialectics without reflection on life. Dialectics is neither an abstract spiritual structure, nor a generally natural structure, but a rational thinking method by man on the reflection of life, and a rational thinking by man in the process of his reflection on life. To understand dialectics correctly, the thinking method of common sense based on the plane of experience must be transcended to philosophic thinking method on the plane of concepts so as to eliminate the metaphysical thinking method of reducing philosophical plane of dialectical view to the plane of experience understanding, and to actual persistence of dialectics.
