| Popis: | 98 Yuan Huang, the author of “Liao-Fan’s Four Admonitions”, is the prominent scholar in the end of Ming Dynasty. He had written four articles to admonish his son to have a morality of kindness. “Liao-Fan’s Four Admonitions” blends the basic concepts of cultivating kindness from the three religions, Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism. It becomes the role model of Chinese society at that time. The folk belief in the end of Ming Dynasty presents “Three Theories As One” vigorously. It is the religious phenomenon which has combined the different asian humanistic thoughts since the ancient times. With the thoughts of ethics in Confucianism, the concept of transcending the world in Buddhism, and the thought of attaining immortality in Taoism, the three religions merge together to show the coexistence of multiple religions in people’s lifestyles. Based on Yuan Huang’s “Liao-Fan’s Four Admonitions”, the thesis will discuss the meaning of “Three Theories As One” from the three viewpoints: self-reflection (self-inspection), revised living philosophy, and the morality of cultivating kindness. Furthermore, we can learn the complementary characters of the three religions from people’s initial reliance on the fate-divination in I-Ching to the acceptance of karma in Buddhism.
