허백당 성현의 사문의식 -경(經), 도(道), 심성(心性)과의 관계를 중심으로-

Abstract

Seong Hyeon is a bureaucrat who lived in the middle of the fifteenth century. He succeeded Kim Soo-eon and Seo Geo-jeong from the early Joseon Dynasty to inherit the tradition of succession. When Kim Jong-jik, the leader of the Salim faction of the ruling camp, developed the theory of Confucianism, the sense of ethics among bureaucrats is clearly marked. In this thesis, I wanted to focus on the philosophy of the 15th century bureaucracy by focusing on the character of Sung Hyeon. Looking ahead, the views of the sages reflected that the scholars of Salim`s faction developed a sense of respect for the development of the inquiry, unlike the trend toward developing the universe and developing the theory of the universe. In the inquiry, however, he acknowledged the views of Confucianism and Buddhism, a view of the success of the inquiry, and determined that the perception of Chuang-tzu`s “Daejeon(大全)” was deeply affected. And the understanding of human nature was very similar to that of Chuang-tzu. During the latter half of the fifteenth century, the ethics of Salim focused on defining in terms of human nature theory and self-cultivation theory. On the other hand, Seong Hyeon tried to incorporate the three liberal doctrines into an inclusive perspective. It sometimes interpreted Buddhism from the Daoist viewpoint, interpreting Confucian interpretations in the Buddhist position, and interpreting Buddhism from the standpoint of Confucianism. Such a trait has led to free ideological constraints stemming from the tendency of the Joseon Dynasty to free itself from dogmatic ideological bonds, and thus leads to ideological inclusion of the thought of Laotzu and Buddhism. In other words, it connects Chuang-tzu’s idea of the “Uniformity of All Things” to the Buddhist belief. It is also meaningful to realistically embrace Chuang-tzu’ ideas and Buddhism that deviates from practical Confucianism.
