"Now let me ask you a question, what is the spirit of Gewu Zhizhi, what does Ge mean, what does Zhi mean, and who knows the answer to this question?"

A small hand was raised: "Taifu, I know, I know!" Mrs. Qin waved his hand at the child: "Okay, Ying Zheng will answer this question." (There will be something to do in the future, but their names are not surnames, don't be surprised by this, this is like that kind of student number, to number)

This Ying Zheng shook his head, and the head of the story was to say: "Taifu, it is said in "University" that the knowledge of things is to enable people to achieve sincerity, righteousness, self-cultivation, family harmony, and the field of governing the country, so as to pursue the highest ideal of Confucianism - peace in the world! Mrs. Qin nodded: "You still memorized it, you are attentive, do you have any other answers, Ge, what does it mean?" At this time, another child who claimed to be Ying Yi stood up: "From Ying Zheng's words, Ge should be the meaning of inquiry, investigation, and Zhi is the meaning of obtaining, obtaining, Taifu asked about the spirit of Gewu Zhizhi, that is, to do anything, you need to practice, to explore the truth yourself, in general, the spirit of Gewu Zhizhi is that inquiry is the only criterion for testing the truth." Mrs. Qin let go and motioned for Ying Ye to sit down: "Is there anything else, do you have any other opinions?" ”

"What you said is very good, Ying Sheng, what do you think Gewu Zhizhi means." The boy named Ying Sheng stood up: "Epistemological propositions of ancient philosophy. Zhu Xi acknowledged that touching things (Gewu) was the way to acquire knowledge (Zhizhi), but he also believed that the mind was blinded by human desires, so knowledge was incomplete. As long as human desires are eliminated through the kung fu of things, we will know everything about the principles of heaven and earth. Yan Yuan interprets Gewu as "committing a hand (hands) to do its thing", and believes that "the hand is a thing and then knowing", which is a simple materialist reflection viewpoint. ”

Qin Taifu applauded and smiled at that Ying Sheng: "What does that poor reason mean!" Can Ying Sheng answer it again, tell me your point of view? Ying Sheng shook his head: "Taifu, I still have to think about it." Mrs. Qin asked Ying Xian again: "Can Ying Xian say it, Ying Sheng, please take a seat." ”

"Answer to Zheng Zhong's Defense": It is not to be outside, it is close to the complex righteousness, and it is broad to the exhaustive reason." Ying Xian said. Qin Taifu asked: "Then you haven't said its true meaning yet, do you have any other answers?" Ying Sheng raised his hand again at this time: "Li Shizhen, who was born in Confucianism, regards the intensive study of medicine as a "poor reason" work. His famous work "Compendium of Materia Medica" is the crystallization and fruit of "the poor theory of things". In the book's "Ordinary Cases," he pointed out: "Although it is said to be a medicine for doctors, its interpretation of nature and rationality is a study of Confucianism." It can be seen that he regarded the examination and interpretation of the nature of medicine as part of the Confucian study of morality. The self-proclaimed "Compendium of Materia Medica" is "a book of medical life, but a practical physics". Wang Shizhen, the leader of the literary world at that time, also said in the preface to this book: "Is it forbidden to treat (only) medical books? The subtlety of the principle of reality, the general canon of things". "The so-called exhaustive reasoning means that we must truly understand the truth, and it is the specific thinking of the understanding on a certain issue, not the false understanding of talking on paper and behind closed doors." On paper, I finally feel shallow, and I never know that I have to do it. "If you don't practice it, you will never understand the true meaning of Chinese medicine.

Mrs. Qin said in surprise: "It's really good, it's not too difficult to solve this problem, okay, that's all for today's class, goodbye, everyone." ”

Qiao Ying finally got out of class, Qiao Ying felt that if she listened to it again, her head would have problems, in this class, Qiao Ying heard a few key words and names: Gewu Zhizhi, and Gewu Poor Reason, it seems that she also heard Zhu Xi and Li Shizhen, Qiao Ying was a failure in this class, she didn't understand what to say when she listened to the story!
