| | Dialectical monism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Dialectical monism is an ontological position which holds that reality is ultimately a unified whole, distinguishing itself from plain monism by asserting that this whole necessarily expresses itself in dualistic terms. | | | Accordingly, advocates assert that Taoism as well as some forms of Buddhism (most notably Zen or Chan) are based on an approach consistent with (or identical to) dialectical monism. | | | For the dialectical monist, the essential unity is that of complementary polarities which, while opposed in the realm of experience and perception, are co-substantial in a transcendent sense. |

| | monism - encyclopedia article about monism. |
| | There is a growing undercurrent of monism in the modern spiritual and philosophical climate, evidenced by increasing Western fascination with Hinduism (including Vedanta and Yoga), Taoism, Buddhism, Pantheism, Surat Shabda Yoga, Zen, and similar systems of thought which explore the mystical and spiritual elements of a monistic philosophy. | | | In other words, this type of monism, or Monistic theism is the type of monotheism more prevalent in Hindu culture, (with respect to Dvaita) and includes the concept of a personal God as a universal, omnipotent Supreme Being, panentheism and monism. | | | The first religious system in India that clearly explicated Absolute monism was that of Advaita (or nondualist) Vedanta (see Advaita Vedanta) as expounded by Adi Shankaracharya. |

| | Dialectical knowledge, in contrast, is knowledge of the dialectic. | | | In short, Lefebvre would simply say that he rejects monism, not because it is monism, but because it seems to him a priori. | | | In other words, the dialectical movement is not some powerful unitary force revealing itself behind History like the will of God. |

| | Maybe in religion, Zoroastrians were his precursors, but in philosophy, I believe, he is the first one to present such a dynamic monistic view by postulating a Dichotomous Unity as the foundation of his philosophy. | | | I did a research about Monism in Marxist Thought, which answered some of these questions for me. Of course, Marxism being the major school of thought in the last century has had so many versions and some of them are very pluralist. | | | I view the kind of monism that Marxist philosophy has shown, to be more dynamic than the static monistic doctrines of the Catholic Church in the Medieval Times. |

| | Monism can no more eliminate the former from the world than it can eliminate percepts; it rejects the latter because it seeks all the principles for the elucidation of the world phenomena within that world, and none outside it." | | | If we shall be capable of liberating ourselves completely from all coercion and authority, internal and external, physical and metaphysical, we cannot remain in a dualistic world that hides ghosts we can never approach. | | | aims to demonstrate that monism is an absolute presupposition for perfect, unencumbered spiritual freedom. |

| | This aspect of the Marxist's world view also manifests itself as an attitude -one that might be called, in his terms, the dialectical attitude. | | | That is, it is a built-in property of matter, a necessary form of existence of matter in all its ramifications. | | | But, in addition to this general reworking, there are certain specific doctrines -qualitatively new in relation to the materialist tradition- that Marx and Engels incorporated into it, with results which have exercised a tremendous influence. |

| | The Theology of Altizer |
| | Their use of dialectic, says Altizer, was limited to an attack on secular expressions of faith, and thus it could not offer any new vision of the sacred. | | | That which engages this dialectical reversal is the affirmation of the death of God. | | | Altizer opts for a full, radical dialectic that holds within its dynamics this "categorical imperative" of faith: If we affirm the death of God fervently enough, a new revelation of the sacred will appear. |

| | Note however that although metaphysically immanent within human hearts (in keeping with Nahua metaphysical monism), teotl is nevertheless epistemologically transcendent in the sense that humans are not guaranteed knowledge of teotl. | | | One's perception and conception are no longer befogged by "the cloud of unknowing" (to borrow from the fourteenth century English mystical text by the same name) or the "breath on the mirror" (to borrow from the Mayan Popol Vuh) constituted by de dicto perception and conception. | | | The dreamlike character of earthly existence, the mask of unknowing which beguiles us as human beings, is a function of our human perspective and teotl's artistic self-disguise (these being ultimately one and the same!) -- not a metaphysical dualism inherent in the make-up of things. |

| | This means that dialectics reaches an apotheosis of sorts in Rand's approach, precisely because she is not mystical, not collectivist, not statist in the substantive content of her theories. | | | Furthermore, I explained that dialectics demands an examination of the whole on the basis of the internal relations between parts that exist within a system and as aspects or "moments" of a process. | | | I have claimed in my book and in the FULL CONTEXT interview that the rejection of false alternatives is indeed, a cardinal aspect of dialectical method. |
