Modern Demonstration of the Confucian Theory of Good Human Nature——The Research into Tang Junyi's Theory of Human Nature

Tang Junyi's theory of human nature is the foundation of his ideology which may be considered as a modern demonstration of the Confucian theory of good human nature.He believes,human being is essentially spirit and all of the people's activities embody homology of existence.Therefore,the evolution of the cosmos is actually that of human spirit.As for good or evil of human nature,he not only illustrates the theory of good human nature through actual activities and provides it metaphysics basis with an ontology of and nature,but also emphasizes that it is subjectively indispensable for people to place faith in the doctrine of good human nature.Moreover,he integrates the past different philosophers' theories of human nature by discussing human nature with the combination of mind and life,affirming different aspects of human nature in order to repudiate and correct the modern one-sided,planar and material theories of human nature with multidimensional,tridimensional and spiritual theories.
