He insisted that “to conscience” was the way to the ultimate kindness. It aroused huge echo at that time in China. Nowadays it still exists valuable both in academic and practice. Man push science go forward by expanding rationality, expecting freedom of man. Man has been extended himself by way of technology and broke through the limited by nature. However, it found that man has trapped himself into instrumental rationality and been controlled by technology, through analyzing the man’s crisis in the era of media. How to salve man is becoming the world topic. Wang’s conscience provides an available method among the ways. He advocates that conscience is the basis ontological existence of man. It legislates itself inside through mind, transforms the good of will into the good behavior, and is also the basis judgment of mind to criticize all unreasonable and unfair phenomena. No matter any alienation and malpractice, we can criticize and condemn according to everyone’s inherent conscience, launching rescue actions call by conscience, realizing freedom.
