What is Monism and the Problem of the Ignorance and Badness in Chinese Buddhism and Zhu Xi’s Neo-Confucianism - Oxford Scholarship about?

This chapter argues that an understanding of the Buddhist models Zhu Xi had at his disposal can yield new insights into how he constructed and defended the monistic ontology that is the centerpiece of his metaphysics, ethics, and philosophy of mind. The author advances two main theses linking Zhu Xi to the Awakening of Faith. The first concerns the ti-yong polarity, demonstrating that Zhu’s understanding of ti-yong is consistent with the model found in the Awakening of Faith and as described by various Huayan thinkers. The second and main thesis concerns the problem of the origin of ignorance and badness. The chapter concludes that Zhu Xi provided a new solution to the problem of badness—one that avoided the radical proposals entailed in Huayan and Tiantai attempts to deal with the issue for over half a millennium.
