LIU Xie confirmed the boundless wisdom of human beings and the possibility of knowing extreme num-bers,and constructed an ontology of numbers that can be mutually learned from Bardou's philosophy of numbers.LIU Xie's preconceived concept of nothingness/nature can be elucidated through number theory,and this idea is also related to Emperor Wu of Liang's Yi Xue(The Book of Changes)and astronomical views.At the same time,LIU Xie used mathematics to explain physics and constructed the relationship between mind and object,as well as the mechanism of body and mind in aesthetics.The metaphor of the"pivot"in his Shensi chapter not only refers to the cognitive and aesthetic significance of Yi Xue's mathematical logic,but it is also a life form that operates iso-morphically with the meridians,orifices,and cosmic rhythms.
