Abstract

In this regard, different people, different cultures have their own different answers. Confucius thought that is "benevolence"; for Mencius, it is "righteousness" ;Cheng Zhu considered "justice"; Wang Shouren considered the "conscience", and Li Zhi proposed the concept of "innocence" in 'Book Burning' and 'Book Burning II'. Li Zhi believes that there is no difference between a saint and an ordinary person, Buddha and the masses, or ancients and modernists, everyone has a childlike innocence. "Childlike innocence is sincerity ", means that innocence is really, alternatively, it is an utter innocence. "Men with innocence are pure and innocent with human nature", from which we can find that Li Zhi believes that innocence is pure and innocent human nature. Just as so called "the streets all saints Mr. yang", for both the sage and the dull, innocence is the same. This kind of natural "childlike innocence", is not only a kind of innate moral idea, but already contains the individual consciousness. This is the progress of Li Zhi's childlike innocence..
