What are the main viewpoints of Yangming's mind theory? Heart is rationality, unity of knowledge and action, and conscience.

Mind is reason: everything is in the heart, and all the reasons don't need to be found outside. The meaning of the world is also given by your heart. Just look from your heart.

Unity of knowledge and action: "Unity of knowledge and action is inseparable", and it is meaningful to know the truth only if it is linked with practice. Knowing and doing are inseparable, only knowing and doing, actually still don't know.

Conscience: Seek inner reason, then act and realize, that is, conscience.

Wang Shouren (Wang Yangming) first put forward the word "mind learning" and put forward that the purpose of mind learning is "to conscience". At this point, the theory of mind began to have a clear and independent academic context. Among them, there are six people who are the most famous in the study of psychology. According to Huang Zongxi's Confucianism Case in Ming Dynasty, "Wang Xue, a famous scholar in South China, wrote books by Wang, Huang Wuyue, Zhu Dezhi, Qi Nanxuan, Zhou Daotong and Feng Jiangnan."

Yangming's Mind-an inexhaustible treasure

About 500 years ago, Wang Yangming realized Taoism in Longchang, and Yangming's mind was born. Since then, there have been countless followers.

The Ming Dynasty overthrew the treacherous court official Yan Song and wiped out Xu Jie, the former headquarters of Chaogang. Zhang Juzheng, who raised the imperial power, initiated the political reform, which lasted for half a century for Daming. Huang Zongxi, known as the father of China's enlightenment in the late Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty, is a descendant of Yangming's mind.

Reformists in the late Qing Dynasty, such as Lin Zexu, Zeng Guofan, Liang Qichao, Chen Duxiu, Yan Fu, Hu Shi, etc., were all followers of Yangming's mind.

In modern times, Chiang Kai-shek was even more obsessed with Yangming's mind. He not only did his own research, but also asked his son to do it. He even named Caoshan Mountain in Taiwan Province Province "Yangmingshan". Mao Zedong regarded Wang Yangming as a spiritual mentor from his youth, and he benefited a lot from his lifelong practice.
