Yeah there are many ways to falsify dualistic thinking. I meant that now we have inescapable scientific evidence too against it.PeteJ wrote: ↑Thu Aug 15, 2019 11:25 amWestern philosophy was placed in trash-can by Russell, who wrote of history of it. He makes it very clear that if we adopt his approach to philosophy then it will make no sense to anybody. He concludes that there is no knowledge to be acquired in metaphysics, and it is clear that if we reject all hint of mysticism (as opposed to muddle) in our philosophy then an inability to make sense of it will be the outcome.Atla wrote: ↑Mon Aug 12, 2019 10:15 pmThanks
In fact I find the conclusion inescapable that all dualistic philosophies were recently destroyed by actual physics experiments that demonstrate quantum non-separability. All ideas of actual seperations, divisions are wrong (as far as we can tell), proving non-dual thinking correct and throwing Western philosophy in general into the trash can.
Turns out it was mostly just a 3000 years long acid trip. Except it may take another 100-200 years until this becomes common knowledge, so seekers are kinda forced to go ahead and continue their investigations on their own.
It's just poor scholarship. But I feel things are changing.
Metaphysics is of course fundamentally just an inherently circular description of the world, and can produce no extra knowledge. And it always amuses me that most rational worldview turns out to be some version of mysticism, some version of the perennial nondual philosophy.
