Understanding Eastern Philosophy
Taylor & Francis, 2002 M01 4 - 208 páginas
Understanding Eastern Philosophy provides an accessible critical introduction to how some of the key philosophies of the East compare with those in the West. Starting from a discussion of the problems of distinguishing between religions and philosophies, Ray Billington presents a clear picture of the key tenets behind Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Jainism and Confucianism.
Moving on to compare the key themes of religious philosophy that cut across East and West, such as a belief in God, the soul, moral decision-making, nature and authority, Understanding Eastern Philosophy presents a fascinating and controversial picture of the contribution theistic religions have to make. With its belief in a personal God bestowing a particular version of 'truth', Ray Billington concludes that the universal mysticism characteristic of Eastern thought provides a more realistic and rewarding path than is commonly supposed in the West.
Understanding Eastern Philosophy assumes no prior knowledge of religion or philosophy.

"Taylor & Francis, M. 2002: 428 ""Kuelewa falsafa ya Mashariki"" hutoa utangulizi wa muhimu wa jinsi baadhi ya falsafa muhimu za Mashariki zinavyolinganishwa na zile za Magharibi." Kuanzia na majadiliano ya matatizo ya kutofautisha kati ya dini na falsafa, Ray Billington anatoa picha wazi ya kanuni muhimu nyuma ya Uhindu, Ubudha, Taoism, Jainism na Confucianism. "Kuchunguza na kulinganisha mada muhimu za falsafa ya kidini ambazo zinapitia Mashariki na Magharibi, kama vile imani katika Mungu, nafsi, maamuzi ya maadili, asili na mamlaka, ""Kuelewa Falsafa ya Mashariki"" inatoa picha ya kuvutia na ya utata ya mchango dini za theistic lazima zifanye." Kwa imani yake katika Mungu wa kibinafsi akitoa toleo fulani la 'kweli', Ray Billington anafikia mkataa kwamba ushirikina wa ulimwengu wote wa mawazo ya Mashariki hutoa njia ya kweli na yenye thawabu kuliko inavyofikiriwa kwa kawaida katika Magharibi. Kuelewa falsafa ya Mashariki hakuhitaji ujuzi wa awali wa dini au falsafa. Todos los resultados de la Búsqueda de libros  Matokeo yote ya utafutaji wa vitabu
