儒敎思想의 관점에서 보는 世界平和

Abstract

Without understanding the filial piety, “the declaration of human education,” it is fundamentally impossible to discuss the thought of peace that human beings are seeking for. It is important to realize and pay attention to that the concept of filial piety began with the “Five Teachings of Hanin” by the Hanin of the Korea’s ancient Hanguk era. Therefore, it is clear to know Korea is the suzerain nation of the filial piety that is the essence of the thought of peace by studying ancient history of Korea. That is, it must be reassessed that the concept of filial piety was not started from Confucianism as we knew. The thought of Hongikingan(man beneficial to all) of Emperor of Hwanung of Baedalguk era that was developed and enriched by Dangun Wang’gum clearly include the thought of world peace. The frame is also the thought of Korea’s filial piety. Confucianism rooted to the Korea’s thought of Han and Confucius compiled it and completed as a world thought. Korea received and developed Confucianism since the Three Kingdoms period. Benevolence, the main thought of Confucius, contains the thought of human peace. Confucianism of Korea consolidated through institutional education during the Three Kingdoms period and settled as the Korea’s three major thoughts with Buddhism and Taoism. Neo‐Confucianism was introduced during the late Goryeo dynasty and reached its peak with Toegye and Yulgok during the middle of Joseon dynasty. The thoughts of these two major Neo‐Confucian scholars Toegye(1501‐1570) and Yulguk(1536‐1584) clearly included the thought of world peace. This is the main objective of this research. Another objective is to hope the thought of Korea’s filial piety will be globalized as the thought of world peace human beings are seeking for although the studies of Toegye and Yulgok already became the international studies.
