Of what use or help is it to tell the enquiring Westerner, "The Hindu sage does not see the world; he sees only Brahman!" If he does not see the world, then he does not see food in front of him, nor even his own body--both being parts of the physical world. Such statements merely create confusion for others. The Greek philosopher saw the world but understood it for what it really was. He did not need to deny its existence.
