本文首先釐清「性」和「偽」在《荀子》中的定義和用法。本文 將指出,「性」和「偽」都各自有兩個定義,並且對於這兩個概念來說,相對應的兩個定義構成一種兩重的結構──即相關的兩個定義並不僅 僅指向該概定的兩個面向,同時彼此之間具有一種遞進的、有層序的 關係。本文將進一步論證,「性」的兩重結構和「偽」的兩重結構可以重疊構成一種三重結構──即人天生的質具,人天生質具的表現和轉 化,以及因此成就的完善人格和文化秩序。這種三重結構不但能澄清 「人之性惡,其善者偽也」的意義,並且印證了《荀子》所說的「性 者、本始材朴也;偽者、文理隆盛也。……性偽合而天下治」。本文亦 將說明,「偽」強調的是人類思慮、反省的能力;「性」、「偽」結合而成的三重結構,描述了人通過思慮、反省的過程,以達致自我轉化和 自我實現。同時,正正是通過這種三重結構,《荀子》證立儒家禮樂的 合理性──禮樂代表了人類的自我規範,而這種自我規範必須通過思 慮和反省才能達成。
This paper analyses the usage of the two concepts of nature (xing) and artifice (wei) in the Xunzi. It will be suggested that each of the two concepts is given two definitions in the Xunzi and that in each case the two definitions form into a two-tier structure. That is, each concept has not only two aspects but the two aspects are also of two stages, one acting as the basis of the other. The two concepts could be further combined and gives us a three-tier structure of human agency. According to such an understanding, the natural endowment of human beings is the target of reflection and transformation. Human beings reflect upon our natural endowment and give it a form of expression, the result of which is human action. Through the accumulation of human action we could construct out of it some normative principles and form human culture. On the one hand, such a three-tier structure of human agency explains why Xunzi thinks that nature of humans is bad and that any good comes from artifice. It is because nature by itself does not have a proper form of expression and will only disrupt agency and give rise to bad consequences. A good form of expression and consequently good action could only be the result of artifice, which consists of perception, reflection and deliberation. On the other hand, such a three-tier structure also explains why Xunzi emphasizes nonetheless that nature and artifice must be joined together to accomplish order and flourishing. For without nature, there is nothing to be reflected upon and to be transformed. The three-tier structure of human agency discloses Xunzi’s vision that human beings are not the slave of our natural endowment but could deliberate and reflect upon our nature so as to bring about self-transformation and self-realisation. It is also through such a structure that Xunzi justifies Confucian rituals, for rituals are self-imposed normsand represent the best form of expression of our nature.

In Liu Xiang's “Other Records”, it is said: “Shi Zi was in the State of Chu, but probably in (Shu) Sichuan. Now according to the book 'Shi Zi', he has the name 'Jiao' and originally from the State of Jin. He became an adviser to Wei Yang, the prime minister of Qin. He was always consulted in the administration and legislation that Wei Yang (Lord Shang) contemplated and implemented. Later, When Lord Shang was executed, Jiao fearing complicity in and fled to Sichuan. Since then, he completed this book containing 60,000 words in 20 chapters. He died in Sichuan."Since the excavation of Four Texts of the Yellow Emperor at Ma Wang Dui in Chang Sha in 1973, scholars have come to understand the full aspect of the"School of Huang Lao" from the period before Qin to the beginning of Han. What the Royal Historian, Tai Shi Gong had characterized about "Daoism"as " bending to the alternation of Yin and Yang, adopting the positive aspects of Confucianism and Mohism, summing up the essentials of the school of Min(Names) and Fa (Legalist)," the scholars have come to appreciate this being essentially an integration of thoughts at the time of the Warring States from allprevious schools since the period of Spring and Autumn. As Ban Gu said about "Shi Zi", it "incorporates Confucianism and Mohism, combining Min andFa." In fact, it also includes the thoughts of Lao Zi and Yin Yang, and is a work from the Warring States period. Ban Gu classified it as one of the "Miscellaneous Schools."Lao Zi's "Dao" is an abstraction of prevalent principles and laws. It is not something that could be understood through sensory perception or that could be altered subjectively. Thus, Lao Zi emphasizes "non-intervention", "natural", "not to go against the nature of things", "cause over effect". Hence, "Shi Zi" also says in the chapter "Feng": "Once on the right track, no longer need wisdom and techniques." : "(care for the people, appreciate advisers, govern diligently) may appear different, but really belong to the same principle. And thus, in chapter "Fa Mung" :"Once the right analysis is made, it is applicable to every matter; once the right regulation is established, everything is so regulated." In the chapter "Qui Yan": “The old lived in a house without chimney and crack knows no fire alarm all his life.” In the chapter " Chu Dao": "Know the world without setting foot outdoor, govern the world without descending his court, for the principles are the same." In the chapter "Fa Mung": "An aware Lord does not need to enhance his hearing and sight, does not need espionage, does not expressly find out; for he observes when formations appears, listens when sound arrives and reacts when events transpire." "Shi Zi" assume the objectivity and universality of these principles and laws in order to distill and describe the thoughts of the different schools so as to establish its own school of thought. So it is in the study of "Shi Zi", one must grasp what in the original text and then proceed to compare it with Daoism, Confucianism, Mohism and Fa in order to fully interpret its thoughts and contentions.

吉藏《中觀論疏》所開「實相」法門之義蘊
On the True Reality Doctrine Connotation Revealed by Chi-tsang’s Commentary on The Middle Treatise
abstract |

本文的主旨是在探討吉藏疏解龍樹造頌、青目注釋的《中論》文 義時,透過諸如「顛倒」與「非顛倒」、「我」與「無我」、「生滅」與 「無生滅」、乃至「俗諦」與「真諦」等相對概念的往復論議,而嘗試 為我們所開設的「入實相門」,到底涵蘊怎樣的哲學思考。作者希望藉 由本文所從事的思想分析、以及其相關義理的闡發,顯示吉藏佛學中用以回應「所謂『真實』是什麼」、「怎樣才能觀見『真實』」此項重要 議題的一個側面。本文的文獻依據,主要是《中觀論疏》,同時旁及吉藏的其他論著。而所採取的研究進路,則為義理闡釋之進路。至於方法,主要通過對 其概念意涵的解析、問題背景的回復、以及義理涵蘊的追究,來達成 展示吉藏所建「實相」法門之哲學思考的論文目的。本文的主要論點,略可總括如下:(1) 吉藏認為站在「畢竟空」的諸法實相之上,由於「有」、「無」 乃至「一」、「異」等概念皆不可得其真實的建立依據,因此,經論或說「有我」、或說「無我」,乃至或說「常」、或說「無 常」,雖然並非沒有相對的教化意義,但是,施設它們的根本 意趣,卻只在於指歸心遊一切法而皆「無所得」的聖智境界。(2) 吉藏指出眾因緣所生的假相或幻有之法,是不離於「實相之 體」的「實相之用」;而徹底來說,它們「亦是實相」。因此,如果了解幻有或假相的存在本質,即是緣起;進而不住著在 這樣或那樣的幻有、假相之上,便可開啟「實相之門」。(3) 在吉藏論說中,用以引導我們開啟「實相之門」的基本理路,乃是掌握住不離於「因緣」之義的「二諦」教說,來分析、辯明諸如「有」與「無」、「常」與「斷」、乃至「生」與「滅」、「顛倒」與「不顛倒」等法目,根本乃是「二(而)不二」、「不二(而)二」的因緣假說,因此,如果想要逼近真實,就得卸除足以形成虛妄表象的心識運作模式,亦即熄滅那些 不能正觀諸法性相的「異想分別」。
This thesis is aimed to study the approach when Chi-tsang composed verses of commentary on the Nagarjuna founded and Pivgala annotated Middle Treatise(Chung-lun), how, through back and forth debating on the relativistic concepts such as “delusion” and “non-delusion”, “selfness” and “selflessness”, “arising/ceasing” and “non-arising /ceasing”, and finally summing-up to “mundane truth” and “noble truth”, he tried to bring up the notion of the “True Reality of AllDharmas”, and established the philosophical contents of Buddhist teaching. With argumentative analysis and elucidation done in this thesis the author expects to assist fellow scholars to understand and grasp a sideway viewpoint in Chi-tsang’s Buddhist thinking, so as to reflect on the essential philosophical issues of “by what it means to see ‘True Reality’ ”, and/or “what the so-called ‘True Reality’ is.”The bibliography of this thesis mainly consists the Commentary on The Middle Treatise (Chung-kuan-lun Su) and other Buddhist writings and commentary works by Chi-tsang. An Argumentative Explanation Approach is adapted as the study approach; as for the methodology, through conceptual connotation analyzing, subject backgrounds reestablishing, and multilayered probing and summarizing of the dogma, it achieves the goal of illustrating the objective that Chi-tsang set to establish the debates on the True Reality philosophy.The key argumentative points of this article are briefly summarized as follows:Chi-tsang suggests, based on the “Ultimate Emptiness” notion of the true reality of all dharmas dogma, since it is not possible to establish any ideas such as “being” or “non-being” or even “oneness” or “multiplicity”, therefore, when sutras and commentaries write about “selfness” or “selflessness”, or even “permanence” or “impermanence”, although some relativistic pedagogical meanings might exist, nevertheless, in essence the dogma is established with theonly intention to relate all phenomenon to the virtuous status of “nonattainment”. In addition, Chi-tsang points out that every causal dharma of falsephenomenon or illusory existence, at its heart “is real too.” Therefore, if we understand the existence nature of the illusory or false phenomenon dharma, knowing that it is dependent on arising, and furthermore cease to abide by illusory existence or false phenomenon, we then will be able to open the “Door of True Reality”.By the verses of commentary Chi-tsang teaches us the basic conceptual approach to opening the “Door of True Reality”, which is by griping without parting the “Causation” theory of “Two Truths” doctrine, to carry out analyzing and differentiating issues such as “being” and “non-being”, “permanency” and “non-permanency”, and even “arising” and “ceasing”, “delusion” and “non-delusion”, knowing that basically they are no more than causal hypothesis of “duality but non-duality” or “non-duality but duality”, therefore, in order to approximate the truth, we must liberate ourselves from the mental processing style which forms illusory external phenomena, that is to say, we need to extinguish “differential false thinking” which stops us from observing correctly the genuine truth of dharmas.

This paper aims to explore Chen Chien’s The Clarification of the Veiled Theories (Hsueh-Pu-Tung-Pien), specifically his comments on Wang Yang-ming’s The Later Chu Hsi: The Conclusion (Chu-Tzu-Wan-Nien-Ting-Lun) and Cheng Min-cheng’s The Way Is One(Tao-I-Pien), which, according to Chen, suffer from the same fault of reconciling and combining Chu Hsi and Lu Hsiang-shan. I will begin with a thorough investigation on Chen’s comments, sorting out as well as explaining the book’s merits and flaws, and weigh its intended effect. I endeavor to reevaluate this book in the hope of bring out a more constructive perspective on the issues concerning the reflections on the similarities and dissimilarities between Chu and Lu.

論羅爾斯的公共理性觀
On Rawls’s Idea of Public Reason

本文的目的在於闡明羅爾斯的公共理性觀念,並對之提出分析與 批判。對羅爾斯而言,公共理性是民主公民身份的一種理想,它要求 人們只能根據所有公民都能合理接受的理由來進行基本政治問題的討 論。於是,公共理性可以在當代自由社會具合理多元的既定事實下,促成政治共識的產生。在這篇文章裡,筆者首先檢視羅爾斯提出的公共理性觀念。其次,筆者將討論四種對公共理性的批評。第三,筆者將分析羅爾斯晚期對 公共理性觀念的修正是否、以及如何能夠對這些批評做出回應。在結 論中筆者將指出,若缺乏具良好素養的公民,則羅爾斯依然無法解決 群眾理性的問題。
The aim of this essay is to elucidate John Rawls’s idea of public reason and its limits. According to Rawls, public reason is an ideal of democratic citizenship,which requires that the public discussion of fundamental political questions should be conducted solely in terms of reasons all citizens can reasonably be expected to endorse. Public reason can therefore produce a political consensus given the fact of reasonable pluralism of a liberal society.In this essay, I will begin by examining the idea of public reason proposed by Rawls. Next, I will consider four objections to this idea. Third, I will critically analyze whether and how the modified view of Rawls’s latest thoughts on public reason can reply to these objections. In conclusion, I point out that, without well-educated citizens, Rawls cannot resolve the problem of plebiscitory reason.

黃宗羲與陳確的論辯之研究
The Research on Debate between Huang Zong-Yi and Chen Chien-Chu

黃宗羲與陳確(乾初)的論辯,於明末清初的哲學轉型中,是 一重要公案,也代表著宋明儒學的轉型而過渡到清儒實學的開始。在近人研究中,或是把陳乾初的思想看得太高,認為黃宗羲晚年思 想受了乾初的影響而改變;或是把乾初的思想貶得太低,把它等同 於告子生之謂性的傳統。同樣地,近人研究,對於黃宗羲思想的定 位亦不清楚,亦不能給予一合理而中肯的地位。有些學者以黃宗羲對於陳乾初墓誌銘的四次改寫作為研究題 材,或是站在黃宗羲的前三次觀點,批評陳乾初思想「以欲為首 出」;或是以黃宗羲的第四次墓誌銘改寫為觀點,認為黃宗羲晚年 思想往陳乾初方向靠攏。以上論點,皆有未當,吾人認為,黃宗羲 的前三次墓誌銘的改寫裡,錯認了陳乾初的思想,以為乾初否定宋 明儒學思想,而為荀子、告子的後天之學的傳統。到了第四次墓誌 銘改寫裡,看出了陳乾初思想的力行實踐之義理,故不予以批評,但亦看出乾初思想非蕺山學的正宗,有其自己的一套光明正大義 理,不至於淪為荀子、告子的後天之學,亦不會下委流為以欲為首 出的學問。
The forum of debate between Huang Zong-Yi and Chen Chien-Chu is a major publicly known archive in the transformation of Philosophy during the lastof Ming Dynasty and beginning of Ching Dynasty. It also represents the beginning of the transformation of the Confucian Learning of Song and Ming Dynasty transition to the practical Confucians of Ching Dynasty. In the studies by recent generations, they have either eye the thoughts of Chen Chien-Chu too much higher by thinking that the final years of thoughts of Huang Zong-Yi was changed by the effect from Chien-Chu or have eye the thoughts of Chien-Chu too much lower by thinking that it is equal to the tradition of born with Nature by Gau-Tze. Similarly, the studies by recent generations are also vague in defining the thoughts of Huang Zong-yi and can not give him a reasonable and pertinent status.Many Scholars have used the four rewrites of Huang Zong-Yi on the Mu-Ze-Ming by Chen Chien-Chu as their subject of studies or to stand with the first three view points of Huang Zong-Yi criticizing Chen’s thoughts being “Desire oriented”. Or to use the view point of the fourth rewrites on Mu-Ze-Ming of Huang Zong-Yi to think that the thoughts of later years of Huang Zong-Yi has leaned toward Chen Chien-Chu.I do not agree to that, my personal view point is that within the first three rewrites of Mu-Ze-Ming by Huang Zong-Yi he has misunderstood the thoughts of Chen Chien-Chu to think that Chien-Chu has denied the Confucians thoughts of Song and Ming Dynasty and become the tradition of later learning ofShun-Tze and Gau-Tze.In the fourth rewrites of Mu-Ze-Ming, he then clearly sees the theory of justice of exertion and fulfillment in Chen’s thoughts. Therefore I will not criticize it, but it can also be seen that Chien-Chu’s thoughts were not from the authentic Gi-San Learning. It has his own set of upright theory of justice, nevertheless this is not likely to become the later learning of Shun-Tze and Gau-Tze and will not degrade to the fallen scholarship either.

康德超驗哲學的自我認知問題
The Problem of Self-Cognition in Kant’s Transcendental Philosophy
abstract |

| cited by
本文首先分析康德的「超驗」概念,由此展開討論「超驗認知」 的理論問題。所謂「超驗認知」是有關認知能力本身的先驗認知,包 括感性和知性的區分,以及時空範疇條件等。雖然康德的超驗哲學以 研究主體的認知能力為核心,以解釋客觀經驗和知識的可能性,但是 這些「超驗認知」本身的理論地位卻不甚清楚。一方面,它們不能是透過內感而得到關於「現象我」的描述,因為這些最多只是經驗認知,不能作為超驗哲學的基礎;另一方面,康德又批判傳統理性心理學,認為我們不能僅透過理性推論而得到關於「本體我」的先驗認知。對 康德而言,根本不存在任何先驗的「自我認知」,但他卻容許智性的「自我意識」,即「純粹我思」或「超驗統覺」。由於缺乏相應的內感,超驗統覺本身還不算是認知,但透過反思的抽象和比較活動,我們能分 析認知結構。不過超驗認知並非直接關於人類這個物種的認知機制。康德的超驗哲學不是認知科學或超驗心理學,而是對於有限理性者的 認知結構的概念分析。
This paper begins with an analysis of Kant’s concept of “transcendental”, and proceeds to discuss some theoretical problems of transcendental cognition.Transcendental cognition refers to a kind of a priori cognitions about the faculty of cognition itself, which include the distinction between sensibility andunderstanding as well as their spatiotemporal and categorial forms. Although Kant’s transcendental philosophy aims to account for the possibility of objectiveexperience and knowledge by investigating into our faculty of cognition, the theoretical status of transcendental cognitions itself is rather unclear. On the onehand, they cannot be cognitions of the phenomenal self through inner sense, because these empirical cognitions could never serve as a foundation for thetranscendental philosophy. On the other hand, Kant also criticizes traditional rational psychology, rejecting the possibility of a priori cognitions of the noumenal self through reason alone. It is true that Kant denies every possibility of a priori self-cognition, but he does allow a kind of intellectual self-consciousness, i.e., the pure “I think” or “transcendental apperception”. Transcendental apperception is not cognition, but through transcendental reflection, we can analyze the structure of cognition. Yet, transcendental cognition is not primarily about the cognitive mechanism of human beings as a species. Kant’s transcendental philosophy is not cognitive science or transcendental psychology, but rather a kind of conceptual analysis of the structure of cognition of the finite rational being as such.

從「物」、「實」之別看公孫龍名學的價值 ——以荀況為參照
Distinguish the Notion of ‘Wu’(物) and ‘Shi’(實), Review The Ming-xue(名學)of Kong-sun Long : Use Xun-Zi as a Reference

先秦諸子論名,旨在匡正名實相怨的時弊,公孫龍也不例外。但 是其以實正名的學說宗旨,卻並不為同時代諸子贊同,以致荀況斥之 為「惑於用名以亂實者也」(《荀子‧正名》)。究其原因,乃公孫龍所 論之名,與此時代之一般理解旨趣殊異。概言之,公孫龍看到了「名」 的兩種用法。即,名既可命物(個體物),是為「物名」;亦可命實(個體物的性質),是為「實名」。公孫龍特別強調的是為當時人所忽略的 後一種用法,其價值與其說是邏輯的,不如說是形而上學的。因此,不論與同時代諸子相比,或從其後中國哲學發展的思維取向來看,公 孫龍的這一發現和闡述都是獨特且別具價值的。
Suffering the problem of Ming-Shi-Xiang-Yuan(名實相怨) in Pre-Qin era, Zhu-zi (諸子), which include Kong-sun Long, are thus paying more attentions tothe notion of Ming(名). The principle of Yi-Shi-Zheng-Ming(以實正名) purposed by him, however, meets with no acceptant of contemporaneous Zhu-zi.The repulsion of Xun Zi, which argues that “making a delusory usage of Ming, could disturb (the orders of) Sh(i 實)(we have recognized)”, refers to the practiceof Kong-sun Long. Provoking criticism universally, the theory of Kong-sun Long is of so distinctive objective, that differs from the general notions of philosophy in that period. In short, the two diversions of Ming(名), to which Kong-sun Long refers, are on one hand to signify (on certain individual), the “Wu Ming”; while on the other hand to refer (the nature of the individual itself), the “Shi Ming”, are discovered by Kong-sun Long. The value and doctrine of which highlighted by him is obviously the later, which overlooked in that period, would rather be regarded as Metaphysical rather than logical. It is even significant to discover and elaborate of philosophy of Kong-sun Long, while comparing with the thoughts of contemporaneous Zhu-zi and the other philosophers in the process of development of latter Chinese philosophy.

本論文企圖依據涉及孔子稱《詩》、論《詩》、讀《詩》、言《詩》 等的諸多史料,來探討孔子對《詩》的詮釋方法。本文依一、前言,二、對「詩」、「《詩》」與「《詩》三百」意涵的釐清,三、孔子以前《詩》 文本的形成與運用,四、孔子對《詩》的詮釋方法,五、結論,進行 論述。其重點在:(一)從授《詩》的文本論其詮釋方法,(二)從因 周樂論其對《詩》的詮釋旨歸,(三)從稱《詩》論其對《詩》的詮釋 方法。經過筆者的研究,發現孔子對《詩》的詮釋應該有兩個階段,早年的教學是因襲魯國官府所藏的《周詩》文本,晚年的傳授是寓己 志以重編《詩》本,傳素王之道。最後,指出其詮釋方式是斷章取義,運用類比,其詮釋目的在成就君子之德,其對《詩》詮釋活動實含歷 史主義、實用主義與假託主義三種面向,缺一不可。
This essay explores Confucius’ hermeneutical method through his speeches, referencing, reading and discussion of the “Book of Odes”. It has the followingsections: 1. Preface 2. Clarification of terms in “poetry or odes”, the “Book of Odes” and “three hundred stanzas of the “Book of Odes” 3. The Pre-Confucianformation and use of the text 4. Confucius’ hermeneutical method with regard to the “Book of Odes”, and 5. Conclusion.The discussion focuses on (the hermeneutical method of) (1) The teachings of the “Book of Odes, (2) The analyses of Zhou dynasty musical lyrics which refer to the “Book of Odes”, and (3) Confucius’ references and readings of the “Book of Odes”. There are two stages of Confucius’ hermeneutical activity. First, the early years, based upon the Zhou Book of Odes stored in the court of Lu. Second, the later years, when Confucius re-edited the text to spread the‘philosophical principles of an ideal king’.The essay shows that Confucius’ hermeneutical method consists of taking passages out of context, the use of analogies, and the goal of developing the chivalrous and virtuous person. His hermeneutical activity combines historical and practical elements, and the use of theoretical implications.

本文的焦點主要放在生命做為一個學術概念,以及生命哲學做為 一套學問或一門學科,提出界說和釐清,勾勒外貌,並且針對相關的 若干概念或論題,做成初步的思辨。在論述的行文,經由如下八節,成為以界說、釐清、論題、思辨、和論理交織而成的架構。第一節,「緒論」,開門見山,帶出研究主題,並且逐一交代論文的構想與輪廓。第二節,「何謂生命」,將學界最常 見的標定在有機體的生命界說,在形式上,分成列舉式的界說和簡要 的界說,逐一整理其要點,展開批判的回顧,並且擬定可推演出更好的生命界說的替代構想,以非固著的和開通的做法,將生命界說為「使 生命之顯現得以成為如此的生命歷程之一貫的根本、機制、或道理」。這樣的生命界說,可避免通常的生命界說以有機體為著眼的褊狹、固 著、和封閉之缺失,而且更適合據以展開生命哲學、宗教哲學、或佛 教哲學的探究。第三節,「釐清生命和相關概念」,包括人生、生物、生命體、生命現象、生存、生活、死亡,避免將生命和這些相關概念 攪混在一起。第四節,「何謂哲學」,以哲學做為專業領域所從事的工 作,扼要說明哲學意指什麼。第五節,「何謂生命哲學」,在論陳生命 和哲學這二個概念之後,即可順理成章地界說生命哲學,大致意指「以 生命為關切的重心,展開哲學的探問與思辨,從而形成的整套學問的 鑽研」。第六節,「生命和哲學的關係」,分別從生命之於哲學,以及哲 學之於生命,討論生命和哲學之間的關係。第七節,「釐清生命哲學和 相關學科」,在生命哲學和生物學、人生哲學、生命研究、生死學、或 死亡學等相關學科之間,做出適度的釐清,使生命哲學意何所指,從 對照的視角,可更加鮮明予以理解。第八節,「結論與展望」,總結本 文的要點,並且展望後續相關的探討。本文的目標,設定為如下二大所欲達成的事項。其一,以哲學的 書寫,提供有關生命概念與生命哲學較為嚴謹與完整的概觀。其二,呈現的生命哲學,不至於過分褊狹,而是不僅可助成和宗教哲學、佛 教哲學的接軌,而且往宗教式的生命實踐開放,有助於理解學說與實 修在生命課題可能的密切關聯。
The focus of this paper is on life as an academic concept and philosophy of life as a body of knowledge or a discipline, defining, clarifying, and examining relevant concepts or questions.The structure of this paper is divided into eight sections in terms of definition, clarification, questioning, and examination. The first section, “Introduction,” points out the theme and gives a general outline of the theme. The second section, “What Is Life?”, brings forward in the forms of list and succinct definition the most common definitions of life as organism in academic cycle. In order to develop a better definition of life, this paper makes a critical review of the above and, in a non-fixated and open manner, defines life as “a coherent base, mechanism, or principle which manifests life as such a process of life.” Such a definition not only avoids the deficiencies of narrowness, fixation,and closure but also makes it a suitable foundation for investigating philosophy of life, philosophy of religion, or Buddhist philosophy. The third section, “Clarifying Life and Related Concepts,” makes a distinction among human life, living creature, living entity, phenomena of life, livelihood, living, and death in order not to confuse life with these related concepts. The fourth section, “What Is Philosophy?”, concisely indicates what philosophy means from the light of philosophy as a professional field. The fifth section, “What Is Philosophy of Life?”, follows to define philosophy of life after discussing the concepts of life and philosophy. Philosophy of life is “the study of life with life as its main concern and philosophical inquiry and reasoning as the method.” The sixth section, “The Relation of Life to Philosophy,” discusses the relation between life and philosophy in terms of life to philosophy and philosophy to life respectively. The seventh section, “Clarifying Philosophy of Life and Related Disciplines,” makes a proper clarification among philosophy of life, biology, philosophy of human life, life studies, life-and-death studies, and thanatology. By means of contrast, this section makes the definition of philosophy of life clearer and more intelligible. The eighth section, “Conclusions and Prospects,” summarizes the key points of this paper and anticipates future discussions.The main objective of this paper includes at least the following two points. One is to offer a more rigorous and complete outline for the concept of life and philosophy of life by way of philosophical writing. The other is to present philosophy of life as less narrow than conducive to be connected with philosophy of religion and Buddhist philosophy, open to the religious way of life practice, and contributing to understanding the close relationship between theory and practice on the topic of life.
