Mozi's"Heavenly Annals"and"Non Destiny":The Comparison with Confucianism's"Destiny"
Mozi's"Heavenly Annals"and"Non Destiny"thoughts,from"Heavenly Annals"to"Heavenly Annals"and then to"Non Destiny"and"Destiny",have inherent logical connections and are Mozi's new judgments on the relationship between heaven and humanity.Mencius inherited Confucius'idea of destiny,but also had a new interpretation.He linked"destiny","talent"and"personnel",and found a path of"wholehearted and intellectual"understanding of the principles of heaven.Mozi's"non des-tiny"and Mencius's"heavenly destiny"both emphasize the subjective and active role of human beings,which is a transformation and development of their previous views on heavenly destiny,and has profound significance in breaking through the limitations and constraints of previous views on heavenly destiny.
