Abstract:

Under the pressure of real life and the stimulus from Taoism and Buddhism, the Song -Confucianists (Confucianists in the Song Dynasty) constructed a theorized system of realm on the basis of turning their attention into the internal mind, mixing Taoism and Buddhism together. It can be seen from the key points as follows: reconstructing moral metaphysics, advocating highly the pleasure of freedom, emphasizing intuition and experience. These key points could be regarded not only as concrete symptoms of ideal realm, but also as developments of its basic traits. Therefore, the confluence of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism constituted a great scene of the Song - Confucian realm.

Key words: Song - Confucians, ideal realm, Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism
