This is the abstract of my paper, ‘What Is Vedantic Personalism?’, at the 17th International Conference on Persons in Berlin last week; it follows up the one at the 16th conference in Mexico City two years ago, ‘Christian and Vedantic Personalism’:

At three of our international conferences on persons we have had presentations on what in my paper at the last one, in Mexico City in 2022, I called “Vedantic personalism”. I focused on the identification of the difference between the Vedantic understanding of the identity of the self, on a general level, and the basic characteristics of the original Christian understanding of the human being that is accepted in most western personalism. But is there really such a thing as Vedantic personalism? Personalism and the term person have not normally been associated with Hinduism and especially not with Vedanta. In this paper, I analyse and explain, in a broad historical perspective, how it has become possible to speak of Vedantic personalism, how it seems to me it should be understood, and what sets it apart not only from Christian personalism but from the main current of Vedanta.

Rolig pedagogik från MAGA-kommunisten/hazianen John Jackman på X:


ree

Man kan utveckla och universalisera detta:


Woke left = hela den postmarxistiska vänstern, kapitalets vänster, den syntetiska vänstern, CIA-vänstern o.s.v., ja större delen av västmarxismen.


America First = konservatismen och populistnationalismen som förande giltigt kulturkrig mot denna vänster, men bundna till högern och dess version av det atlantglobala ekonomiska och politiska systemet.


American communism = den konservativa socialismen.


Efter mordförsöket på Trump lade Jackman ut ett kort klipp med Haz i diskussion med Hinkle. Han har också en YouTube-kanal, och är co-host för DDGeopolitics.
