And I’d include Nietzsche in this number to honestly; with Heidegger being the only one worth reading in the SLIGHTEST.
Things are what they are regardless what we think or feel about them; they come about regardless of their

relation to one and other but rather as reality unmoored from our understanding which our understanding must shape itself in order to persist.
We are not Gods.
And it no surprise that the generation that saw themselves as gods gave birth to an ideology that comminuted suicide in an orgy of faggot idealism; an ideology which gave rise to the atomic weapon and thus drove western civilization to a neo-bronze age collapse.
Thank fucking God at LEAST their fucking faggot ideals will die with the last idealistic faggots the world can create as it lies drained of all resources drowning in a sea irradiated cobalt.
Fucking Jesus dudes.
These fucking homos SUCKED

What do Vedanta followers think of German idealism and vice versa?

The A team

>Schopie: right wing
>Kant: centrist neoliberal
>Hegel: left wing
Is this accurate?

and, for old time's sake, and because it's right there, somebody needs to complete the System of German Idealism at post #300 also, i think.

>Cheng ming, literally ‘sincerity and intelligence’, comes from the Confucian classic Zhong Yong (‘Doctrine of the Mean’). According to Zhang Zai, ‘the knowing of Cheng ming reaches the liangzhi of the moral of heaven, and is totally different from knowing through hearing and seeing. Thus knowing based on intellectual intuition characterises Chinese philosophy and its moral metaphysics. Mou often repeated that his is a moral metaphysics, but not a metaphysics of morals, since the latter is only a metaphysical exposition of the moral, while for the former, metaphysics is only possible starting with the moral. He therefore demonstrates how the unification of Qi and Dao depends upon this capacity of the mind to go beyond formality and instrumentality. Mou also demonstrates that intellectual Intuition exists in both Daoism and Buddhism. It is not our purpose here to repeat his lengthy and detailed proof but, in short, intellectual intuition in Daoism is related to the fact that knowledge is infinite, while human life is finite— therefore it is futile to chase after infinity with one’s limited life. We can understand this from the first two sentences of the story of Pao Ding cited above:

>Your life has a limit, but knowledge has none. If you use what is limited to pursue what has no limit, you will be in danger. If you understand this and still strive for knowledge, you will be in danger for certain!

>This would prima facie seem to confirm Kant’s prohibition on intellectual intuition. But Pao Ding puts forward another way of knowing, namely that the Dao is that which is beyond all knowledge, and yet can be apprehended by the heart. The same is true for Buddhism, as demonstrated in the concept] of the void or nothingness: the void and the phenomenona coexist, but in order to know the void, one must go beyond phenomena and physical causality.

>For Anglophone readers who wish to look deeper into Mou’s argument for intellectual intuition, the work of Sebastien Billioud serves as a good introduction, although Billioud also criticises Mou for remaining silent on Kant’s Critique of Judgement and the reinterpretation of intellectual intuition in post-Kantian philosophy, especially the work of Fichte and Schelling— a reasonable enough criticism since, although he refers several times to Fichte, Mou never engages with his thought in any depth. Billioud attempts to compare Mou Zongsan and Schelling through the work of the great French connoisseur of Schelling Xavier Tilliette. However, we must be careful with this comparison. The term ‘intellectual intuition’ is rather muddy already, and its legacy in German idealism even more so. In an influential article, Moltke Gram argued against that what he calls the ‘continuity thesis’ regarding intellectual intuition, as a transition from Kant to Fichte and Schelling.

and ofc Trump, who will (if he hasn't already) complete the system.

No one mentioned German Idealism yet?
