As mentioned earlier, after Wang Yangming's thought spread to Japan, as a flower of theory, it formed the Yangming school in Japan. However, due to the inherent logical requirements of Wang Yangming's philosophical thought, it is bound to move from theory to practice and bear rich fruits in practice. If Wang Yangming didn't realize this, then, as Wang Yangming's successor, Yangming scholars at the end of the Japanese shogunate were consciously working hard. As we all know, Japan's modern history began with the Meiji Restoration, so let's first discuss the role of Wang Xue in Japan's modernization with the relationship between Wang Xue and Meiji Restoration. First of all, a group of outstanding talents were prepared for the Meiji Restoration Movement. During the more than 200 years in the Tokugawa era, the Tokugawa and Japanese Zhuzi schools were always in the leading position of official schools before the Meiji Restoration, while Yangming school, as the ideology of the lower samurai and citizen class, was in a position of being suppressed and excluded. Especially after the shogunate issued a ban on different schools in 1790 (the second year of Kuanzheng), Zhu School was regarded as the only orthodox thought, while Yangming School was regarded as a rebellious heresy. However, in the last years of the shogunate, Yangming Studies (Wang Xue) became a philosophy widely believed by the reformists, and thus created a group of outstanding thinkers and followers for the Reform Movement. There are many talented people under Sato's Zhaimen, such as Sasaki Xiangshan (A.D./KOOC-0/8/KOOC-0/-KOOC-0/864) and Yokoi Xiaonan (A.D./KOOC-0/809-/KOOC-0/869). Taking Yangming school as a weapon to emancipate the mind, they put forward the ideas of "Oriental morality, western art, refinement and coarseness, and both internal and external cultivation", which broke the loneliness and bad habits of Confucianism, opened up a new wind to absorb western science and culture, and made ideological and public opinion preparations for opening ports. Among Sakujian students in Xiangshan, such as Yoshida Shōin (A.D. 1830- 1859) and Sheng Haizhou all believed in Wang Xue. The backbones of the Enlightenment in the early Meiji period, such as Hiroyuki Kato, Jin Tian Zhen Road and Nishimura Tibetan Tree, also came from Xiangshan Gate. Yoshida Shōin was a pioneer thinker and educator during the Reform Movement. Song Yin recalled: "I once read Wang Yangming's Biography, which was quite interesting. Shi Li's book burning is also Yangming school, so be careful what you say. Borrowing the date to "Reading Notes on Heart-washing Cave", Dayan is also a Yangming school, which can be viewed. But I don't specialize in Yangming studies, but their studies are true and often true to me. " Under the influence and encouragement of Yangming school, he actively advocated respecting the king and resisting foreign countries, and devoted himself to the anti-screen movement. Yoshida Shōin founded Matsushita Village School in his hometown in the name of his uncle. It is said that nearly half of his 80-year-old students made outstanding contributions to the Meiji Restoration. Before and after the Meiji Restoration, many outstanding figures, such as Ito Bowen, Shinsuke Urugu, Nobuyuki Takayama, Yamagata Aritomo, Noue Kaoru, Maehara Yicheng, and Hisaka Hyun-shuo, all came from Song Yinmen. Takayama Shinzo (A.D. 1839- 1867), a disciple of Yoshida Shōin, was one of the most important figures in the Reform Movement. After reading Wang Yangming's Biography, he wrote a poem: "Wang Xue revitalizes the sacred school, and the ancient and modern essays are in oblivion. Only those who can believe in the word conscience are those who are above the righteous emperor. " Saigō Takamori (A.D. 1827- 1877) was the leader of Samoan clan and a politician who devoted himself to Wang Xue. Taking Yangming's thought of knowing and doing as a theoretical weapon, he actively participated in the reform of curtain politics and the diligent king movement; In order to return the great government to the emperor, he personally served as the staff of the governor's office and conquered the shogunate general; In order to reform the old system, he initiated the discussion of abolishing feudalism and changing counties; Therefore, he became the first hero in the diligent king movement in Japan. It was these outstanding people who believed in or tended to Yangming studies that advocated respecting the king and resisting foreign countries or overthrowing the founding of the country, promoted the Meiji Restoration, disintegrated the Japanese feudal system, and thus opened the door to Japanese social modernization. The founding fathers of Meiji, Ito Hirofumi and Saigō Takamori, directly advocated civil rights, democracy and abolishing religion, which laid the foundation for Japanese capitalism. Zhang Taiyan, a famous scholar in modern China, said: "The Japanese reform was also led by Wang Xue." Liang Qichao also said: "It is also useful to learn the nature of mind in governing Japan's political reform." These arguments are in line with Japanese history. Secondly, Yangming studies and Japan's absorption of modern western science and culture. The earliest introduction of western culture into Japan can be traced back to Nakano in16th century. At that time, missionaries and businessmen from Portugal and Spain came to Japan to spread the religious culture of medieval southern Europe (mainly Christianity) and some practical technologies (such as the use of guns and gunpowder), and had little contact with modern scientific civilization. At that time, it was called "full learning" for short. But/kloc-At the beginning of the 7th century, the Tokugawa shogunate began to ban religion, and in the 1930s, it developed from banning religion to banning western books, realizing the policy of "locking up the country". So far, the contact and communication with western culture has been suppressed for nearly a century. However, after the shogunate implemented the closed-door policy, although the spread of western learning suffered great setbacks. However, books on pure science and technology are not prohibited. 1720, the eighth generation general of Tokugawa shogunate ordered the "relaxation of the ban" and adopted a positive attitude to introduce western books, and European culture was re-spread. The European culture introduced into Japan this time is called "Lan Xue", which mainly refers to the knowledge of European culture brought by Dutch and Dutch books. In addition, books on astronomy and geography compiled by western missionaries from China also introduced western science and culture. But until the beginning of19th century, natural science knowledge was mainly spread in Japan, such as medicine, zoology and botany, astronomy, geography and so on, and social science was almost unknown. Therefore, the western scientific and cultural knowledge spread during this period is still one-sided.
