외암과 녹문의 理氣同實論 비교연구

Abstract

This essay has a context of describing mainly Yoi-Am’s Li-Ki Dongshil(理氣同實) Theory, with a brief comparison to that of Nog-Moon. Because of the limited space, details of Nog-Moon’s theory which are essential have been omitted here for other opportunities. Although Yoi-Am and Nog-Moon are from the different lineage of scholars, they retain the same thesis of Li-Ki Dongsil(理氣同實), which gives us an interesting proposition. But, it is to be seen that as their theory of substance, the basic subject of philosophy, gets to differ, their implications of Li-Ki Don gsil(理氣同實) become to differ likewise. If we approach the theories of Yoi-Am and Nog-moon on the same perspective without noticing beforehand what their theories of substance are, we cannot but make a decisive error. The substance theory of Yoi-Am is Li-Ki Dualism, while that of Nog-moon is Ki monism. Therefore Yoi-Am’s substance theory implicates the Bulri(不離) of Bonnyeon(本然)-li(理) and Bonyeon(本然)-Ki(氣), while Nog-Moons substance theory is reduced to Ki(氣) Monism overriding the Bulri of Bonnyeon-Li and Bonnyeon-Ki. The characteristic Yoi-Am’s theory is to put emphasis on the agreement of Bonnyeon(本然)-Li(理) and Bonnyeon(本然)-Ki(氣) from the point of value. On the other hand the characteristic of Nog-moon’s theory is to put emphasis on the agreement of both Li(理) and Ki(氣) on the Bonnyeon from the point of being and value. Likewise, the Mind-Nature Oneness that two scholars are asserting shows distinctions between them also. The main point of Yoi-Am’s mind-Nature oneness, in other words, is to put emphasis on the agreement of mind and nature from Bonneyeon(本然) The Mind-Nature Oneness theory of Nog-Moon's is reduced to pure and clean Ki-Monism(氣一元論) overriding the agreement of Bonsim(本心) and Nature(本性). The Main point of Nog-Moon’s Mind-Nature theory(心性論) is to put emphasis on the agreement of being and value.
