Sun, George. "A Summit Meeting in Metaphysics, Religion, and Philosophical Anthropology: The Chinese—Whiteheadian Encounter on Creativity.” (Unpubl.)
Abstract
Whitehead's emphasis on process as basic is more oriental than western, more Chinese than Buddhist, in its basic spirit. Whitehead's thought and Chinese thought (Taoist, I Ching, etc.) are similar in their emphasis on creativity as the metaphysical ultimate, in their negation of substance as basic, in their focus n value as essential to reality, and its recognition of organic relations.
