“心即理”作为王阳明心学的核心命题,标志着儒学从“格物致知”向“内求良知”的转向,然而其本质却是一种主观主义哲学的建构,混淆了宇宙本体与人心现象,割裂了人与自然的本源联系。本文以“老-杨创世纪宇宙观”为理论基础,从宇宙本体论、自然哲学、认识论与伦理—政治结构四个维度,系统批判“心即理”的哲学谬误,指出其背后隐含的以人心造神、扭曲自然秩序、压制个体差异与知识探索之危险倾向。最终,本文主张回归“道法自然”之原初宇宙智慧,以重建人类与天地之间的真实关系。 As the core proposition of Wang Yangming’s philosophy, “The mind is principle” (心即理) marked a shift in Confucianism from the investigation of things and the extension of knowledge (格物致知) to the inward search for innate knowing (良知). However, in essence, it is a construction of subjective idealism that confuses the ontological foundation of the cosmos with human mental phenomena and severs the original connection between humanity and nature. Based on the “Lao-Yang Genesis Cosmology”—a comprehensive cosmological system integrating Laozi’s naturalist philosophy and modern scientific cosmology—this paper offers a systematic critique of the philosophical fallacies of “The mind is principle” from four dimensions: cosmic ontology, natural philosophy, epistemology, and ethical-political structure. It reveals its inherent dangers in deifying the human mind, distorting natural order, and suppressing individual difference and knowledge exploration. Ultimately, this paper calls for a return to the primordial cosmic wisdom of “Dao follows Nature” (道法自然) in order to rebuild the authentic relationship between humanity and the cosmos.
