| dc.description.abstract | This dissertation is based on the clue from Qi to discuss the thought of Liu Ji-Shan, and then conclude the distinguishing features of his thought. Basically, Ji-Shan’s theory of Qi correspond with his concern and thinking way. Regarding the ontology, Ji-Shan especially pay much attention to explain the reality from the activity. The activity here contains two meanings : the activity of reality itself, and the activity that the reality reflected on things. By reflecting on Li-Qi theory and Xin-Xing theory, it comes out the immanent meaning as there will be no Li without Qi, and there will be also no Xing without Xin / Qi / Qing. According to these thoughts, Ji-Shan do have some criticism against Zhu-Xi and Yang-Ming’s theory. Regarding the theory of cultivation, Ji-Shan especially pay much attention to explain the cultivation from the continuity ( non-stop ). On one hand, it stresses the reality is continuing essentially, the cultivation is just only used to keep the continuing activity of the reality. On the other hand, it also stresses if the reality was interrupted by any issue in case. It is the point we should study hard and focus on. And that’s the reason why we should always be afraid of interrupting the reality and have to concentrate on keeping reality all the time. In conclusion, no matter, Ji-Shan stress on the keeping quiescence / keeping reverence / keeping sincerity of the will / keeping vigilance in solitude. All of them are telling people to keep the continuing activity of the reality at the end. Basically, his concept is a kind of reflection according to research the school of Yang-Ming’’s thought. To be summarized, Ji-Shan’s Qi theory would like to represent a world, which shows that Being and appearance belong to the same origin, and which shows the emotion and morality can not be divided.
