theory
Chen Cheng's theory is called "Chen Cheng School" and "Chen Cheng Confucianism". Philosophically, it developed the Neo-Confucianism from Mencius to Zhou Dunyi, and established a Neo-Confucianism system with "Tian Li" as the core. The most important academic proposition put forward by Cheng Er is that "everything is only the principle of nature", and he thinks that Yin and Yang and the five elements are only the materials for "principle" or "principle of nature" to create everything.
From the beginning of Cheng Er, "Li" or "Tian Li" was regarded as the highest category of China's philosophy, that is, as the noumenon of the world. Cheng also pointed out that the system of human society and the corresponding social moral norms are also the concrete manifestations of "reason" in human society.
Cheng's theory of human nature is further deepened on the basis of Mencius' theory of good nature, and answers a series of questions such as why sex is good and why sex is evil.
Cheng believes that human nature is different from "the nature of destiny" and "the nature of temperament": the former is the embodiment of justice in human nature, and human nature is flawless because it has not been destroyed or distorted; The latter, born of gasification, is inevitably eroded by "qi", which has disadvantages and therefore evil factors.
