- W2014837701 abstract "If we would reconcile the differences between the philosophies of the East and those of the West, we must go beyond that particular problem, important as it is, to the general situation of philosophy the world over, both within the West and within the East. The East-West differences are but one instance, though a deep-going one, of that general situation; to settle them we must dig down to its roots. For philosophers everywhere, in East and West alike, are and always have been divided into hostile camps. To be sure, there are degrees of hostility; some are nearer to agreement on fundamentals than others. On the whole, those of the East more nearly agree with one another than with the schools of the West; and the Western schools, save for some of the idealists and mystics, agree with one another more--or better, disagree with one another less!than with those of the East. Naturally, some of the idealists heartily sympathize with the spiritualism and moral earnestness so characteristic of Eastern metaphysics, though they reach their results by a quite different road. But for the rest, no: the present-day materialists, naturalists, humanists, existentialists, and Thomists of the West, above all those who denounce every metaphysic and study only syntax and such-these seem to be at daggers drawn with the Eastern schools. Of course there are exceptions, but the scene as a whole has been, and is, one of decided hostility. Moreover, the schools of the West are more violently opposed to one another than is the case in the East. The prevailing tone of Eastern philosophy is spiritual and moral; materialism has counted little. Mind-body dualism, taught by some, is typically no denial of the ultimate reality of spirit. True, the Oriental schools do to an extent refute one another; but the conflicts are mild in comparison with those in the Western arena. For instance, materialism, strong today in the science-loving United States, bitterly opposes idealism and Thomism as forms of supernaturalism; so, too, does the instrumentalist; the existentialist has no use for any well-ordered system, and so on. And the logical positivist disdains all concern with reality, studying only the ways of clear thinking for its own sake, an ideal game remote from life's serious interests which marks philosophy at its lowest ebb. And even within this group there are many disagreements. Well, all this is a sorry spectacle. Philosophy, most important of all" @default.
