On the basis of revealing the theory of conscience,Wang Yangming advocated the concept of spiritual literature,and turned the traditional theory of feeling things in poetry from the viewpoint of paying equal attention to"heart"and"things"to the aesthetic experience of poetry creation with"heart"as the leading position,and practiced it in poetry creation;At the same time,it also emphasizes that creators should have the realm of transcendence,indifference and self-adaptation,and poetry creation should have the functions of adapting themselves quickly,expressing true temperament and entertaining.Wang Yang-ming's view of spiritual literature has influenced the aesthetic pursuit of poetry and prose of Zheng Shanfu,Li Zhi and Lin Yu-tang,a master of modern spiritual literature,which makes the literary writing of Yangming's post-learning in Fujian gradually show the style characteristics of spirituality,leisure and humorousness,and promotes the prosperity and development of spirit-ual literature of Fujian School.Yang Ming's theory of mind and the spiritual literature advocated by Yang Ming play an irre-pressible role in the formation and development of Min School's spiritual literature view.
