Applied Philosophy Of Anekanta: 4.7 Overlapping Between Anekānta Philosophy and Western Continental Philosophers’ Perspective

^[1]The non-relative one sided view has created many problems in the field of philosophical thought. Anekānta provides a solution to those problems from the point of view of inter-cultural understanding. Under the umbrella of anekānta, all antagonists, one-sided view-holders come and sit together on one platform breaking the system barrier which divides the entire human race. I have clearly highlighted, the doctrine of anekānta as an understanding, which urges individuals to study the different religions, cultures, customs, rituals, cults, schools of thought and trace out the underlying points of agreements and disagreements, so that one can have dialogue from the point of view of agreements rather than remain in watertight compartment of thoughts. So an endeavour is made to find out the elements of anekānta in philosophical views of Husserl, Wittgenstein,Jean Paul Sartre, Jacque Derrida and to interpret it from the comparative point of view of western philosopher’s thinking with the Jain concept of naya and syād perspective.
