Description
Summary:碩士 === 華梵大學 === 哲學系碩士班 === 99 === The traditional Chinese philosophy is a kind of practical philosophy mainly aiming at the pursuit of ideal personality. The internal experience is produced from practical activities and is mastered to acquire the knowledge of ideal personality. Since practices lay emphasis on the introspective knowledge instead of the objectivity, the "cognitive process" and the "practical achievements" of practices can hardly be discussed objectively so that practical philosophy is lack of authority. The study tries to cite the western cognitive science and neuroscience to discuss the cognitive process of the practical philosophy and establish the testing method of the practical achievement from the perspective of cognition and knowledge. For the discussion of cognitive process, the theory of self-knowledge of Tu Weiming is used to establish the cognitive process of the practical philosophy. There are researches on a variety of learning processes developed from the western philosophies and cognitive psychology. The study will adopt the "tacit knowing" of Polanyi and the "ACT-R knowledge model" in the cognitive psychology to support the objectivity of the self-knowledge theory. For the achievement testing, the testing method is proposed and established for the practical achievement to be discussed objectively. The "physiological base" of the relativity between practical achievement and the brain activity is searched by means of the "achievement proof test" developed according to the masters who have got the practical achievements, as well as based on the study results of neuroscience. In addition, it is expected that the further studies between the Chinese philosophy and the "parapsychology" are expected. The value of Chinese practical philosophy will be improved if these two aspects are involved in the Chinese philosophy studies as a part of the theories. The study is just about to find such possibilities.
