Lesson 4:
The Self in
Western and
Eastern
Thoughts
GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE!!
“STAND UP IF”
Different cultures and environment
tend to create different perceptions
of the "self". The most common
distinction is between the Western
vs. Eastern, where Western typically
define "the self" as an individual
entity separate from others, while
Eastern said that "the self" is an
illusion, and that we are all
interconnected.
INTRODUCTION
Which focuses on the importance
of personal ethics and morality
rather than a religion;
•Behaviour
•Loyalty
•Obedience
"It's target is to have a
harmonious social life with
people" (Ho 1995).
CONFUCIANISM
It holds that humans and
animals should live in balance
with the Tao, or the universe.
Taoism rejects the hierarchy and
strictness brought by
Confucianism and prefer a
simple lifestyle (Ho 1995).
TAOISM
Where the self is seen as an illusion,
born out of ignorance, human-
centred needs; the self is also the
source of all these sufferings
according to (Ho 1995).
When it comes to Buddhism, the self,
all of its connections and selfish
ideas are completely removed from
the
picture.
BUDDHISM
The Western culture is an
individualistic culture, while
the Asian culture is a
collectivistic culture.
Westerners seem to loose
loyalty to their groups, while
Asians look after the value of
cooperation.
7
Conflict is inevitable in
diversity, but peace is also
possible through
understanding of where each
of us came from, having
consideration despite the
differences.
HAVE
a
great
LIFE!
Malinao, Lirie Shaine P.
