中国的宗教与哲学传统充满了当代世界(无论是东方还是西方)所急需的一些根本洞见。尽管它们在不同的时代获得了其最充分的发展,但科学并不是其文化生活和理智生活的重要组成部分,而且技术也没有得到高度的发展。它们不像西方哲学那样和数学有着密切的关联,它们也没有表达一种精制的历史意识。 The religious and philosophical traditions in China are full of some of the fundamental insights urgently needed in the contemporary world, be it East or West. Although they have attained their fullest development in different times, science is not an important part of their cultural life and intellectual life, and their technology has not been highly developed. They are not closely related to mathematics as Western philosophy does, nor do they express a refined historical consciousness.
