초록
Indian and Japanese aesthetics manifest similar aesthetic universality in artistic adequacy; only the ways of representations differ. The artistic purpose is virtuous, to move ahead from darkness towards light. The aesthetic appreciation of art focuses on eastern textual bliss where Indian aesthetics manifest the intuitive light of Brahman, while Japanese aesthetics celebrate mystic shadows of Śūnyatā. In understanding eastern subjectivity in the form of absolute consciousness, Brahman is absolute unity, while Śūnyatā is neither nihilistic nor an absurd idea, which it is often misunderstood as. Its realization creates unity, continuity, harmony, and mindfulness in the perception of art. The eastern perspective is bounded by a transcendental consciousness in form and formlessness, which celebrates the beauty and is meditative in perception. In this research paper, reading T.S. Eliot and W.B. Yeats poetry, one understands how their art reflects eastern philosophical significations creatively, manifesting the aesthetics of light and shadows and how their poetry attains Nirvãna in its transcendental and worldly attributes.
Abstract
Indian and Japanese aesthetics manifest similar aesthetic universality in artistic adequacy; only the ways of representations differ. The artistic purpose is virtuous, to move ahead from darkness towards light. The aesthetic appreciation of art focuses on eastern textual bliss where Indian aesthetics manifest the intuitive light of Brahman, while Japanese aesthetics celebrate mystic shadows of Śūnyatā. In understanding eastern subjectivity in the form of absolute consciousness, Brahman is absolute unity, while Śūnyatā is neither nihilistic nor an absurd idea, which it is often misunderstood as. Its realization creates unity, continuity, harmony, and mindfulness in the perception of art. The eastern perspective is bounded by a transcendental consciousness in form and formlessness, which celebrates the beauty and is meditative in perception. In this research paper, reading T.S. Eliot and W.B. Yeats poetry, one understands how their art reflects eastern philosophical significations creatively, manifesting the aesthetics of light and shadows and how their poetry attains Nirvãna in its transcendental and worldly attributes.
