Abstract: The doctrine of "Tiantao"(heavenly laws) and "Xing-Ming"(humanity - will)is one of the main contents in Neo-Confucianism in Song and Ming Dynasties.It links heaven with man,inner with exterior, metaphysics with physics, and brings about more metaphysical meanings to Confucian Philosophy of Pre-Qing Dynasty. The doctrine transcends the purpose of pure utility, and has more value in the ethics. It not only discusses concrete moral norms or moral entry,but also reflects transcendental source and inner basis of morality. The "metaphysical morality" is helpful for cultivating people's transcendental moral consciousness.

Key words: Neo-Confucianism in Song and Ming Dynasties, "Tiantao"(Heavenly laws), "Xing-Ming"(humanity - will), Ethical Value

摘要： 天道性命之说是宋明理学的主要内容之一,它打通了天与人、内与外、形而上与形而下,从而使发端于先秦时期的儒家学说具有了更多的形上内涵。理学家的天道性命之说超越了纯粹实用、功利的目的,而具有较强的伦理道德上的价值。它不仅探讨具体的道德规范、德目,而且还要进一步反思道德的超越根源和内在基础。这种“形上道德”有助于人们培养一种根源意识和超越意识。
