Based on the analysis of phenomenology and etymology, we argue that as three different components of Chinese philosophy, Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism focus on human beings’ transcendence of behavior, body, and mind, which is made concrete as Ming (name of reputation), Qi (physical body), and Dao(way)-De(virtue), respectively. Chinese philosophy has its own system, but it is still a philosophical component in ontology, and its constituent elements are identified as “affirmative universal” by Euler’s Identity Diagrams in contrast both to existences in Heidegger’s triad Seinede-Dasein-Sein ontology, i.e., Being-Beings-To be, and to Freud’s triple self-Ego, Id (body-ego), and Superego. Taoism shapes the physical id with the “Type 1” natural Dao(way) personality”,Buddhism shapes the bodhisattva”Type-1” selfless De(virtue) personality and Confucianism pursues the mediocre”Type 0” social Dao-de(morality)personality”. Therefore, when q equals p, the ideal personality shaped by Chinese philosophy is the perfect combination of the three, displaying its “affirmative particular” unity in elemental composition and the ideal realm of Chinese philosophy follows the Euler’s Identify. Individuals who believe in the tenets of Chinese philosophy should have the personality of triadic mixtures. Nevertheless, one may become an extremely selfish hypocrites wearing social masks while one’s morality value reaches 1.
