Abstract: “Pondering over aesthetic objects and catching their basic truths” is the most valuable aesthetic proposition in Jing Hao’s Proposition.“Pondering over”(度)is one kind of immediate,complete and intuitive contemplation,and “catching”(取)does not imply to gain by artificial means but to accept things naturally,a whole integration of person’s mind and the aesthetic objects.This proposition is a kind of cognitive structure about whatever one touches it should be true,and a thing means a thing in itself at the same time.This proposition does not ask for truths transcending over physical objects,but instead that art’s value lies in their inner lives and in their unique beings.The perfect state of artistic creation is to let the meaning and value of the object being presented freely.

Key words: Jing Hao, Bi Fa-j, whatever one touches should be true
