Eastern philosophy is unity. This cosmological unity is the main point in the journey of life as it goes towards the eternal realities. Life is round, and the recurrence with everything around it is important. Ethics is based on behaviour, and dependence is from the inside to the outside. To be liberated, the inner self must be freed first.  

In contrast and linear as it seems, Western philosophy is logical, scientific, and rational compared to the East’s concept of eternal and recurring.

Eastern philosophy thrives on virtues. Western philosophy focuses on ethics. Eastern philosophy is also more about the spiritual while Western philosophy is more of a hands-on style.  

The Youth in contemporary times, surrounded by a plethora of influences, ranging from peer pressures, competition, technology, easy access to any and every kind of information, is thwarted constantly to survive. Unless, the education system is geared to instil life supporting skills, there could be major pitfalls some of which could be hard to come out of. 

True success is measured by one’s inner strength to handle situations with balance and ease. And Eastern philosophy prepares one in this direction.
