Abstract
The philosophical system constructed by Yang Guorong with "things" as the core is not only rooted in the ideological resources of Confucianism and Taoism in traditional Chinese philosophy, but also integrates the core essence of Marxist view of practice and forms a theoretical form of integration and innovation. As the dual connotation of practice and concept, 'thing' not only includes the action dimension of 'doing', the process dimension of 'learning', but also points to the meaning dimension of 'doing', and constructs the meaning order of the real world in the dialectical development of self-made things. By analyzing the dual connotation of 'things', the logic of world construction and the value orientation of becoming oneself and becoming things, this paper reveals its theoretical enlightenment on maintaining an open mind for the development of philosophy, participating in world cultural exchanges and breaking through the dilemma of knowledge development, and highlights the contemporary vitality of Chinese philosophy 'returning to the original and opening up the new'.
