Based on the fact that the study of Chinese body philosophy began with the Confucian body view and that ancient Chinese cosmology was the theoretical premise of "body theory", this paper attempts to clarify the concrete expression of Taijiquan on the Confucian view of heaven and man and explain its human significance from the perspective of body philosophy. The research shows that: (1) the body schema and body image of Taijiquan express the basic thought and idea of the Confucian view of heaven and man; (2) as a kind of physical behavior culture, Taijiquan shapes the human's ideological dimension of the harmony and coexistence of "humanity" and "heaven"; (3) Taijiquan's embodied cognition of "blood and qi" strengthens the attitude of harmonious coexistence between human and nature; (4) Taijiquan's embodied cognition of "mind nature" regulates the emotion of dividing human beings and the way of heaven.
