Questions on practice philosophy have been a hot topic of late,but discussions are limited by dualism—the way of thinking that fixates on mind-vs-matter,and theory-vs-practice. These discussions often focus on theoretical shifts rather than on inquiries into meta-practice philosophy—that is,the questions implied in the so-called "return"of practical philosophy,about why thinking must have a practical dimension,and the meaning of this return have not been elucidated or defended. Thus,this essay aims to inquire into these questions by discussing the relations between sign,meaning,concept,and thinking in light of practice,and explains its effects.
