Rationalism vs. Mysticism explores the profound dialogue between Eastern and Western traditions, tracing how rational inquiry and mystical insight converge, diverge, and transform one another. Moving across metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, logic, and aesthetics, this book reveals how both traditions balance reason and transcendence, and how their interplay has shaped the development of philosophy, religion, and culture. Rather than treating rationalism and mysticism as opposites, the study uncovers new syntheses-such as intuitive and mystical rationalism-that open fresh avenues of thought. It highlights how these approaches continue to influence not only academic philosophy but also broader social and cultural contexts. Grounded in intellectual, multicultural, and methodological pluralism, the book creates a forum for interdisciplinary and cross-cultural dialogue. Its scope extends beyond philosophy to engage themes from the natural and social sciences, literature, and the arts. By weaving together Western and non-Western perspectives, it advances a cosmopolitan outlook that resonates with today's global community of scholars, educators, and reflective readers. Thought-provoking and forward-looking, Rationalism vs. Mysticism invites readers to rethink familiar categories, bridge cultural divides, and cultivate new insights into some of humanity's most enduring questions.
