동아시아 생명 사유와 존재론적 소통 문제

Abstract

This thesis is to study the East-Asian thought of the creation and the circulation for the lives in natural spaces, in which the idea that the interconnectedness without flow blockage is ontologically inevitable to natural creatures, may be given. The natural inherently have self-creation, self-ecosystem and self-being. We, as a product of the natural, live with such an ontological conditions that might be apt to be regarded as the opponents which are apart from us. But they would mean ourselves as well as they really are familir with us in Space. This approach, being more or less metaphysical, is based on the acknowledge the Nature is not the existence in the other side of us. First of all the individuals under the Universe have relatedness, interconnectedness, relationality with each other as the premise of existence such as the relations of heaven to earth, heaven to human-being, human to human, and things to things. These ontological implications are discovered in the benevolence thought of the East, in which not only the objects are inward and outward related with one another but also they act and change, related with one another also. Otherwise they can’t exist as natural creatures. In this awareness, a problem of the ontological interconnectedness in the course of the creation or living aspect in space is approached in this study.
