"It may be said that pantheism and theism in world civilization were derived from the Aryan and Semitic races, respectively. These two still form the backbone of the Western ideas which have been dominating the world since the Industrial Revolution, which ended in favor of a mechanical civilization. And it is natural that the people of the Western sphere of civilization view from no other perspectives than these two. As for us people of the East, we have traditions quite different from those of the West, and view from perspectives unlike those of Westerners."
