内容简介：
In this article, I try to argue that it would be more appropriate to use transliteration than literal translation when inquiring into the notion of liangzhi. And the interpretation of liangzhi into innate, original or cognitive knowledge would incur “the interpretative morass regarding knowledge.”
Firstly, for Wang, what innate in man is moral agency other than a certain kind of knowledge, be it innate or empirical. Therefore the focus of zhih-zhi and ge-wu is rather on moral practice and the realization of virtue within people than on either “the extension of knowledge” or “the investigation of things.” Such translations have not only given rise to interpretative deviation from Chinese text but also evoked ensuing hassles.
Apart from that, the adoption of cognitive or objective knowledge to elucidate liangzhi also leads to gratuitous twist of English words and phrases and stokes some conundrums. There are three misconceptions concerning this issue: liangzhi as perfect or innate knowledge, the identity of knowledge and action, the ambiguous notion of action. Those misconstructions have been clarified and followed by the exposition of the correlation among liangzhi itself and three types of zhi. Liangzhi itself is the metaphysical creative principle and our moral agency as capacity for moral judgment as well as the motivation of moral conduct is the manifestation of liangzhi itself. Zhi-tian-li is exactly our judgment of right and wrong. Empirical knowledge serves as the assistance of liangzhi for the fulfillment of the latter’s directions while moral knowledge refers to either our moral agency or the fruit of cooperation between moral agency and empirical knowledge.
