摘要
"良心"一词最早见于《孟子·告子上》篇"其所以放其良心者,亦犹斧斤之于木也"一语,本义指人本然之善心,置重于个人天赋所具之性,并散发为"恻隐、羞恶、辞让、是非"之"四心"。考察孟子"性善"论和"四心四端说",探求其良心观的践行之方,可以证明孟子良心观之于个人成善、成德的内在致思理路。
The word “Conscience” is first seen in “Mencius·Gaozi Book I”：“The way in which a man loses his conscience just likes the way in which the trees are denuded by axes”, which means who was born with proper goodness, belonging to the nature of human beings. It can be further interpreted as “four xin” containing sympathy, shame, comity and the ability to tell right from wrong. Based on intensive researches on Mencius＇ s view on good-nature, “four-heart and four-terminal” and his exploratory practice, this paper indicates the significance of Mencius＇ s view on conscience in transforming individuals into ones with better goodness and morality.
