In the following I will now attempt a so-called exemplary presentation, such as Marx provided in "Das Kapital".
[ but I never got that far ]
The East has never shown the scholars any respect. They are intellectual workers, but they are not the real intelligentsia. The West has always mistakenly perceived them as the real intelligentsia. They ARE intellectuals, but they are not intelligent people. You will sometimes find that the so-called intellectuals are stupider than the farmers, gardeners and fishermen simply because the farmers, gardeners, fishermen and carpenters live close to nature, to life and to existence.
They have a far truer experience, a much closer and more intimate contact with reality than your so-called professors, scholars and academics. The intellectuals live surrounded by words - big words, bombastic words - but they live in prisons of words. You can be fooled by them very easily because they talk in the same way as the Masters. They are pseudo, they are hypocrites. Beware of that and beware of their follies.
