Journal of Asian Restudy 2021 Fall

Asian culture has played a very important role in the human history, and had made great contribution to the evolution of the human civilization. However, there are many people who still have much misunderstanding about Asian culture, or simply don’t take it as important as it should be, since the power of advanced technology has convinced many people of the leading position of the science-based western culture. The Asian culture had its glorious periods thousands years and centuries ago, but had been in its downturn for quite a while now. Isn’t it the time to re-study it, and let its beauty shine again to the world?

pointed depth-driven philosophical work approach, made it become

very complicated and could be even dangerous at some time. Before

getting hysterical with anything, it functions somewhat like a magic

cube composed with many small cubes of six different colors

interweaved together. One can twist around those small cubes to

produce certain color pattern on each side of this toy, and each move

of any small cubes would bring other cubes to move with it. If one

wants to put all the same color side of small cubes on the same side

of this magic cube, it could take quite some effort to accomplish,

especially if all the colors have been totally mixed up. That roughly

explains the complex level of modern politics.

However, if one takes a different philosophical approach, for example,

if they don’t twist around those small cubes so much and control the

color mixing level to minimum degree, then they can more easily

recover them to the original condition, supposedly, this magic cube is

neatly set with all the same colors at each side at the beginning. That

says if the government stops doing some unnecessary work,

especially the work between their interaction with civilians, by giving

the latter more freedom to work their own things out, it could make

the politics easier and simpler. Or in a different scenario, if they can

just leave that color- messy situation caused by random action alone,

assuming that the situation wasn’t so bad yet, by wearing a pair of

color-filtering glasses, then they won’t see the different colors at each

side of the magic cube, while, in reality, the “color mess”won’t show

up either. Why? because the less intervened people have tendency

to adjust their behavior to a level of unification and lead to make a

new unified color, which is an automatic adjustment under the

constant changing power game between Yin – Yang interplay, also a

healthy adjustment to society. In fact, lot of those complicated
