Previous studies on the double negation method of the Chongxuan ("redoubled mystery") mainly focused on major Chongxuan philosophers such as Cheng Xuan-ying, Li Rong, Wang Xuan-lan, Meng An-pai, Tang Xuan-zong, and Du Guang-ting. Research in the past decade has largely outlined the concept of Chongxuan from thoroughly examining these philosophers. However, because later scholars were influenced by the findings of their predecessors, their research was restricted to these philosophers. As such, the relevance of other Chongxuan philosophers has been overlooked. This study uses Dao de zhen jing shu yi (Subcommentary of Dao De Zhen Jing) authored by Zhao Zhi-jian, an active philosopher of the High and Mid-Tang period, as an example to discern the historical turning points in the interpretation of dao (way), xing (human nature), and xin (heart) in Chongxuan school at the time of this work.
