This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosopher and head of the Japanese Kyoto school, Nishitani Keiji's book, The Self-Overcoming Of Nihilism Specifically it examines chapter 9, "The Meaning of Nihilism for Japan". Nishitani claims that nihilism has become a significant cultural problem in post-World War II Japan, and that merely returning to a previously robust tradition undergirded by (Mahayana) Buddhism and Confucianism will not be by itself sufficient. Instead, that tradition has to be reappropriated and reinterpreted from the point of view of the present and the future in order for it to possess any genuine potentiality To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler or Buy Me A Coffee - https://buymeacoffee.com/a4quydwom If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO - or at BuyMeACoffee - www.buymeacoffee.com/A4quYdWoM You can find over 3,000 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler Purchase The Self-Overcoming Of Nihilism - https://amzn.to/3wgyCqz
