Abstract
This study aims to explore Dong Zhongshu‘s principles of benevolence (ren) and righteousness (yi) from the perspective of the relationship between the self and others. Research on Dong Zhongshu‘s principles of benevolence and righteousness is extensive; however, very few studies examine them from the perspective of both the self and others, which is a crucial key to addressing various issues. This highlights a gap in academic research that this study seeks to fill. The research primarily employs qualitative methods, including content analysis, comparative analysis, and philological analysis. The main finding of this study is that Dong Zhongshu, while inheriting Confucian thought from the Pre-Qin period, directly linked the principles of benevolence and righteousness with Heaven and argued that both originate from it.
