A Love Knowing Nothing: Zen Meets Kierkegaard Mary Jeanne Larrabee 1 Abstract I present a case for a love that has a wisdom knowing nothing. How this nothing functions underlies what Kier- kegaard urges in Works of Love and how Zen compassion moves us to action. In each there is an ethical call to love in action. I investigate how Kierkegaard’s “religiousness B” is a “second immediacy” in relation to God, one spring- ing from a nothing between human and God. This imme- diacy clarifies what Kierkegaard takes to be the Christian call to love. I draw a parallel between Kierkegaard’s im- mediacy and the expression of immediacy within a Zen- influenced life, particularly the way in which it calls the Zen practitioner to act toward the specific needs of the person standing before one. In my understanding of both Kierkegaard and Zen life, there is also an ethics of re- sponse to the circumstances that put the person in need, such as entrenched poverty or other injustices. 1 Department of Philosophy, DePaul University.

  • Spinoza's Acosmism in Another Light
    THE DAY IN WHICH ALL COWS ARE WHITE: SPINOZA’S ACOSMISM IN ANOTHER LIGHT Jason DOCKSTADER* Abstract. In this essay, I aim to defend Spinoza against Hegel’s claim that he annihilated finite things and the real differences they instantiate. To counter Hegel’s charge of acosmism, I try to conceive of a Spinozist kind of acosmism that would mean not a metaphysical eliminativism or nihilism about finitude and diversity, but rather a metaphysical fictionalism about finitude that entails a latent application of the principle of the discernibility of identicals. I do this by focusing on the correspondence between Spinoza’s three kinds of knowledge – imagination, intellection, and intuition – and his understanding of things as being finite, infinite in kind, and absolutely infinite. In the process, I also entertain Yitzhak Melamed’s argument that Hegel was wrong to accuse Spinoza of acosmism, but was onto something by noting the lack of full or self-subsistent existence on the part of finite modes. Melamed offers a reading that claims Spinozist individuals are weak and functional properties that follow from God as his effects. I respond that Melamed would be correct only if we view things from the perspective of the first kind of knowledge, which is a perspective that is by definition false. I conclude, then, that finite things in Spinoza, qua finite, are not illusions, but fictions, and that when viewed truly or truthfully they are so many infinite in kind or absolutely infinite ways one infinite and eternal substance, God or nature, is discernibly identical to itself. Keywords: Spinoza, Hegel, Acosmism, Discernibility, Infinite, Knowledge, Truth I.

    HEGEL’S APPROACH TO THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD IN THE LECTURES ON THE PHILOSOPHY OF RELIGION Miguel A. Badía Cabrera Universidad de Puerto Rico [email protected] Resumen: Con las Lecciones sobre la filosofía de la religión Hegel muy probablemente se convierte no sólo en un predecesor, sino en el fundador de la filosofía de la religión contemporánea. Esto es así porque en esta obra esboza un acercamiento original al conocimiento de Dios. Cuando Hegel dilucida el concepto de religión como la “consciencia” (Bewusstsein), y en especial la “ocupación” (Beschäftigung) del ser humano con Dios, diferencia la perspectiva objetiva de la teología natural del punto de vista doblemente subjetivo de la filosofía de la religión. Mientras que en la primera disciplina Dios es aprehendido como un objeto “abstracto” del pensamiento —Dios como meramente es en sí mismo—, en la segunda conocer a Dios es primariamente percatarse de él como un sujeto “concreto” que aparece a los sujetos que nosotros somos, ya que “El Espíritu de Dios es esencialmente en su comunidad”. El énfasis de Hegel en “esta esfera íntima” (dies Innerste) ejemplariza un enfoque análogo al de pensadores medulares del siglo veinte quienes, a partir de tradiciones filosóficas diferentes, aseveran que el conocimiento de Dios hay que sacarlo de adentro. Palabras clave: Hegel, filosofía de la religión, Dios, religión, Espíritu, Innerste, Unamuno Abstract: With the Lectures on the Philosophy of Religion Hegel arguably becomes not just a forerunner, but the founder of contemporary philosophy of religion. This is because in this work he delineates an original approach to the knowledge of God.

  • Māyā and Becoming: Deleuze and Vedānta on Attributes, Acosmism
    COMPARATIVE AND CONTINENTAL PHILOSOPHY https://doi.org/10.1080/17570638.2018.1488354 Māyā and Becoming: Deleuze and Vedānta on Attributes, Acosmism, and Parallelism in Spinoza Michael Hemmingsen Division of Humanities, College of Liberal Arts & Social Sciences, University of Guam, Guam, USA ABSTRACT KEYWORDS This paper compares two readings of Baruch Spinoza – those of Deleuze; Vedānta; Spinoza; Gilles Deleuze and Rama Kanta Tripathi – with a particular focus māyā; becoming on three features of Spinoza’s philosophy: the relationship between substance and attribute; the problem of acosmism and unity; and the problem of the parallelism of attributes. Deleuze and Tripathi’s understanding of these three issues in Spinoza’s thought illustrates for us their own concerns with becoming over substance (in the non-Spinozistic sense) and māyā, respectively. This investigation provides not just two interesting and contradictory interpretations of Spinoza, but also gives us insight into Deleuze’s metaphysics and Tripathi’s Vedāntic philosophy. Interpreting historical thinkers often brings with it the concerns and preconceptions of those engaged in the reading. As such, in considering the views of later interpreters of a philosopher or philosophy, we can sometimes learn just as much about the views of those doing the interpreting as we can about the “correct” way of reading the original phi- losopher. A good example of this appears in contemporary readings of Baruch Spinoza. In this paper, I look at Spinoza through the eyes of Gilles Deleuze and Rama Kanta Tripathi. Their interpretations of Spinoza help to illuminate some of the concerns and presupposi- tions in their own thought and help us further understand their own philosophical pos- itions.

Dillon DePauw University [email protected] his article examines the impact of academic discourses on Neo-Gnosticism. he identities and ritual practices of Neo-Gnostics are constructed with refer- ence to Gnostic Studies. Analysis of two case studies (the Apostolic Johannite Church and Jeremy Puma) shows how academic discourse legitimizes, chal- lenges, or reforms Gnostic identity in the twenty-irst century. Transformations and inventions of ancient Gnostic religion in the twenty- first century take place in a crowded field of discourse.1 here are dozens, per- haps hundreds of organized Gnostic churches in North America.2 Prominent artists, writers, and intellectuals claim to be Gnostics and produce works that 1. I use the term discourse in line with Jan Assmann to refer to “a concatenation of texts which are based on each other and treat or negotiate a common subject matter” (Ass- mann YEAR, 15–16). Lincoln (1989) exhibits how such discourses (in myth, ritual, and classification) on the past serve to negotiate religious identities. Post-structuralist approaches to discourse analysis, stressing the symbolic capital entrenched in particular discourses and the power dynamics inherent in the definition of terms, is a diferent project (Foucault 1972; Gee 1999); in action regarding the study of esotericism see for example, Robertson (2010); von Stuckrad (2010).

Johan de Jong Date of Submission: 24/05/2017 Total Word Count: 21034 (main text: 18333) Contact: [email protected] 1 “Spinoza has been claimed as the ancestor, founder, or originator of many things, both good and evil, among them the ruin of all religions, biblical criticism, liberalism, Jewish secularism, Zionism, the enlightenment, secularization, neurobiology, evolutionary theory, toleration, libertarianism, and modernity as such. Taken together these claims are too good to be true, and yet one can usually see why people have interpreted Spinoza’s heritage along these lines.” Piet Steenbakkers, Spinoza Research: To Be Continued (2016). Pg. 19. While writing my thesis I could not help but recall these words spoken by professor Steenbakkers in his farewell address, almost anticipating a project such as my own. The first Spinoza lecture I received was in 2009 (or 2010) and given by professor Steenbakkers when I was yet to become a student of philosophy. It seems only fitting that his words are at the beginning of the end of my philosophical path that as a circle begins and ends with Spinoza. 2 Table of Contents Introduction ................................................................................................. 4 I.

Bowers Honors College 3 DEDICATION To Patrick and Kathleen McGrenera, for the opportunity. I love you Mom and Dad. 4 ABSTRACT Matthew McGrenera, God, Self, and Identity: A Comparative Examination of Eastern and Western Philosophy of Religion . Bachelor of Arts (Philosophy), May, 2020, Sam Houston State University, Huntsville, Texas. This project is intended to prove that Eastern philosophy can be used along with Western philosophy to further what seems to be the limitation of human comprehension. The paper will focus on Hinduism in comparison with three Western philosophers: GWF Hegel, Baruch Spinoza, and John Locke. This paper will be a unique take on the philosophy of religion through a comparative philosophy approach. The paper will explore three main topics: God, Self and Identity. It will do so through a case study on each topic. The case studies are to be seen as evidence that this form of comparative philosophy can be beneficial in progressing philosophy. The case studies are not intended to be separate from one another. While they can exist alone as evidence of the conclusion, they are intended to be read in sequence as there is a clear connection that exists between them.
