Asian mind is detrimental to the Western soul. There will never be peace of mind. I have not seen a single Westerner who has bowed down to the collectivism and submissive character of the East. No European or American who truly understands him or herself will ever throw away the truth and tell a lie just to please the collective and give them face. Asians do that, not Westerners.

Thank you! Very much enlightening. I was raised in a Confucian family, but turns to Christianity when I grew up - but, I still found this school of thought as great! Excellent heritage.
