Sheldon Pollock of all the people. He is a known American Orientalist.
Are there no traditionalists, do we still need to depend on a white man to get our own philosophy?

- raincom 6y agoHaving white skin doesn't make false whatever Pollock says. Similarly, having brown skin doesn't make true whatever a brown person says. Just evaluate arguments independently of one's color. I am not saying that whatever Pollock says is true; instead, I am bringing in a specific point, for which Pollock adduces evidence.
