Résumé
Western philosophy began with the study of matter. Religion added life and creator to matter. Science added laws to matter. History tells the story of these additions. Vedic philosophy instead begins with the study of persons. Religion talks about the origin of many persons in one person. Matter is the thoughts and actions of a person. Science is about order created by persons, for persons, in a world of persons.
History is about persons going from one world to another, based on the ideas of self and world in them. If we add attributes to matter, they inherit materialism. If we add attributes to persons, they inherit personalism. Western thinking universalizes, separates, and mechanizes based on its ideas of matter. Vedic thinking individualizes, connects, and organizes based on its ideas of persons. Western thinking extends outer-world idea into the inner-world, and Vedic thinking extends inner-world idea to the outer-world.
Western and Vedic thinking diverge because of different starting points-matter vs. persons. This stark contrast makes Vedic ideas incomprehensible to the Western mind, which is why when the West found Vedic ideas it was either fascinated without understanding, or it rejected them as primitive myths. The ideas that the West understood were impersonal, universal, and substantive caricatures of Vedic thinking, rejected by the Vedic traditionalists.
There is nothing in Western academia that explains the Vedic worldview because we can never bridge the chasm from materialism to personalism. However, it is possible to discuss the same subjects in a new way, and this what this anthology of articles does. It discusses Western philosophy topics like epistemology, ontology, logic, perception, reasoning, realism, idealism, personhood, mechanism, mind, nature, quantity, quality, God, mathematics, duality, non-duality, etc., from a Vedic worldview.
We can never go from the worldview of matter to that of persons, but we can discuss them side-by-side, and show why one fails and the other succeeds.
