Abstract
Ito Jinsai is one of the well-k nown Japanese Confucianists in the Edo era. As he criticized the teachings of Zhu Xi's philosophy, instead he advocated the direct return to Confucius and Mencius. In addition, he denied Zhu Xi's commentary of Yijing ( the Classic of Changes ), which Zhu Xi regarded as the book for div-ination. Jinsai claimed that the existence of divination itself was inconsistent with the principle of Confucianism, so he insisted it was utilitarian that future behaviors would change depending on results of divination, such as"fortunate"or "unfortunate". Since Mencius advocated behaviors should be based on "righteousness"by definite-ly distinguishing righteousness from "profit", he considered divination to be against righteousness. However, Zhu Xi had have already realized this problem before Jinsai 's criticism. He recognized that regardless of results of divination, immoral actions should not be taken. But on the other hand, Zhu Xi believed that divination should be allowed only when it was considered impossible to decide what action was morally right. Jinsai did not agree with this belief. Because he believed that the "way"could be easily acknowledged. He denied Zhu Xi, but in fact he extremely extended the point which Zhu Xi had already noticed As explained, Jinsai broadened an part of the teachings of Zhu Xi, and then criticized whole Zhu Xi 's phi-losophy . There are lots of anti-neo-Confucianism during the Edo era, which denied Zhu Xi 's philosophy based on the Zhu Xi's teachings itself. In short, on the behalf of existence of the Zhu Xi's teachings, "Kogaku"(school aiming to return to the ancient confucianism) in Japan started to be conducted. Moreover, as the view to the div-ination, Jinsai had the attitude to primarily honor the purity of motivation, which is one of the consistently flowing characteristics in Japanese Intellectual thought.关键词
