Question

This thinker [emphasize] critiqued the idea that the concept of gé wù in the Great Learning should be construed simply as “studying things.” Together with his predecessor (*) Lù Xiàngshān (“sh’yahng-shahn”), this thinker founded the “School of the Mind.” This thinker argued that people can acquire li solely through introspection, what he called liangzhi (“l’yahng-chuh”), or “innate knowing.” This thinker rejected the possibility of weakness of the will, a doctrine he called the “unity of knowledge and action.” For 10 points, name this Míng dynasty philosopher who was the leading critic of Zhū Xī (“chu-shee”). ■END■
