There is a strong element of mysticism in Mencius. And his sage-hood constitutes a power permeating man and the universe and Heaven and Earth, again “an immediately apprehended aesthetic continuum or manifold.” It would be futile to try to describe this feeling on his part except in his own words. But we have to limit ourselves to the briefest of his remarks:
All the ten thousand living things are found within us. There is no greater joy than to look into our life and find this true. To have strong feelings for others and follow them is the nearest road to jen.
He that goes to the bottom of his heart knows his own nature; and knowing his own nature he know Heaven. By keeping his heart and feeding his nature he serves Heaven. Long life and early death are as one to him. By mending his life whilst he waits, he carries out the bidding.
And yet, the truly great man is he who is able to preserve his heart like that of a new-born babe.
Although such a state may appear too lofty and unattainable for the ordinary man, Mencius exhorted him to take heart. When Mencius was asked if it was true that every man could become like Yao and Shun (the great ancient Sage-Kings), he exclaimed, “Certainly!” And he put into the mouth of Yen Yüan, the favorite disciple of Confucius, the following expression of confidence: “Who was shun? Who am I? To do our all is to be like him.” If Mencius departed from the traditional anthropomorphic God, he laid his faith in a new realization of the true worth of man. For traditional religion he substituted a vital ethical mysticism. Mencius was confident that not only he himself but everyone else as well could attain the identity of man with the universe. Everyone has potential sage-hood in him. It all depends on how well he can extend and develop those in inborn beginnings of the virtues. To a more profound moral democracy than this no man can profess.
