Neutrosophic Interpretation of the Analects of Confucius

Florentin Smarandache, Fu Yuhua

Abstract

This book is the companion volume of "Neutrosophic Interpretation of Tao Te Ching,” its purpose is to extend the foundation and application range of “The Analects of Confucius.” The reasons for this are as follows. Firstly, we are willing to point out that The Analects of Confucius already has some limitations, because many questions we are interested in cannot be answered within “The Analects of Confucius.” For example, The Analects of Confucius basically discussed the matters in China, however considering all possible situations it should matter in foreign countries as well, i.e. the “global village.” This was impossible in Confucian time. Secondly, if the original The Analects of Confucius is regarded as “The Positive Analects of Confucius,” its opposite would be “The Negative Analects of Confucius,” while the intermediate or compound state is “The Neutral Analects of Confucius” or “The Neutrosophic Analects of Confucius.” Thus, our book presents the way to extend the original The Analects of Confucius in various neutrosophic interpretations.
