博士 === 國立政治大學 === 中山人文社會科學研究所 === 88 === The metaphysics theory of Dr. Sun Yat-Sen's doctrine is based on the Theory of Unification of Spirit and Matter, as well as the Theory of Unification of Heaven and Man. The thought on both theories penetrate the view of Dr. Sun Yat-Sen's doctrine on cosmos, life and history of mankind. In the Theory of Unification of Spirit and Matter, the origin of the cosmos begins from the union of the spirit and matter, and the harmonious relationship between its positivity and negativity. The law of existence and development of the cosmos is based on the harmonious action of the Law of Give-and-Receive. The ontological reality of the Theory of Unification of Spirit and Matter is basically the God or the Creator in western religion, also the God or Heaven in the Chinese philosophy, which is the God of personality. The Theory of Unification of Heaven and Man emphasizes that the human original nature comes directly from God. Originally, the character of a perfect individual resembles God's perfect nature. Thus, the life of original human being is a reflection of truth, goodness and beauty, as well as being wealthy; there should be no poverties, sicknesses and wars in the original world. In my thesis, I will introduce Reverend Sun Myung Moon's metaphysics theory on God, the origin and the cause of Evil, and the Restoration of Goodness through the struggle between good and evil. His thought will helps tremendously for us to illustrate the reason behind the development of human history aiming for the realization of God's nature and the ideal world on earth. Indeed, Rev. Moon's metaphysical views can be an effective tool for the construction of Dr. Sun Yat-Sen's doctrine on the fundamental metaphysics theory.
