What is Zhu's thought?
Zhu's thought is the science of neo-Confucianism and understanding. The idea is as follows:

1, rationality is a metaphysical person before natural phenomena and social phenomena. He believes that reason is more fundamental than qi, and logically reason precedes qi; At the same time, Qi has the initiative to change, and reason cannot be separated from Qi. He believes that everything has its reason, and the reason of everything is one after all, that is, "Tai Chi".

2. Rationality is the law of things, and rationality is the basic principle of ethics.

3. Reason is human nature. Zhu, also known as Tai Chi, is the sum total of universal principles, that is, the principle of total truth. Tai Chi is just a word. Taiji contains the principle of everything, and everything can embody the whole Taiji alone. This is that everyone has the spirit of Artest, and everything has the spirit of Artest.

4. There are two main relationships between reason and harmony. Anger should be controlled by qi, with qi as the primary, qi as the object and back, and qi as the secondary.

5. Everyone and things take abstract rationality as the basis of their existence, and everyone and things have a complete rationality, namely "rationality one". Qi is the second category in Zhu's philosophical system after relay theory. Everything in the world is the product of the unity of reason and matter.

6. The specific content of "learning from the scriptures" is "poor righteousness, understanding human relations, speaking holy words and spreading accidents." The "natural justice" here mainly refers to feudal ethics such as benevolence, righteousness, propriety and wisdom, while "human relations", "sacred words" and "chance" are the interpretation and application of natural justice.

Major achievements

Neo-Confucianism, also known as Taoism, is a theory aimed at studying the meaning of Confucian classics, that is, the so-called study of righteousness.

In the Song Dynasty, Zhu's academic attainments were the deepest and most influential. He summed up the thoughts of predecessors, especially Neo-Confucianism in Song Dynasty, and established a huge Neo-Confucianism system, which became the representative work of Neo-Confucianism in Song Dynasty. His achievements were praised by later generations, and his thoughts were regarded as official studies, while he himself was mentioned as a saint with Confucius and was called "Zhu Zi".

Zhu wrote The Original Meaning of the Book of Changes, listing the images of Heluo and congenital, and edited The Book of Changes with his disciples Cai and his son (Cai and Cai Shen), explaining the theory of Heluo and congenital, which was used by later generations to explain Zhu's innate thought of Heluo.

In Yuan Dynasty, Ming Dynasty and Qing Dynasty, it has always been the official philosophy of the feudal ruling class, which indicates that the ideology of feudal society is more complete. In the second year of Yuan and Qing Dynasties (13 13), the imperial examination was resumed, and the imperial examination was ordered to be based on Zhu's Notes on Four Books and Sentences. In the second year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty (1369), Zhu et al. "passed the note as the Sect" in the imperial examination.

Zhu Xue became the spiritual pillar to consolidate the ruling order of feudal society. It strengthened the "three cardinal guides and five permanents" and hindered the later changes in feudal society. Zhu's theory also had a far-reaching influence on Wang Yangming's psychology in Ming Dynasty. Wang Yangming's thought of unity of knowledge and action is a breakthrough on the basis of Zhu's philosophy.
