Meditation on the Moon
冥思月亮
Materialism and mentalism - the philosophies of ‘nothing but.’ How wearily familiar we have become with that ‘nothing but space, time, matter and motion’, that ‘nothing but sex’, that ‘nothing but economics’! And the no less intolerant ‘nothing but spirit’, ‘nothing but consciousness’, ‘nothing but psychology’ - how boring and tiresome they also are! ‘Nothing but’ is mean as well as stupid. It lacks generosity. Enough of ‘nothing but’. It is time to say again, with primitive common sense (but for better reasons), ‘not only, but also’.
