Reply to comment by pairustwo in Schopenhauer and Hegel’s feud was metaphysical: a pessimist who recognised the unchangeable essence of the world and an optimist who saw human history as perpetual growth could never get along. by IAI_Admin

How much do you wonder about it on the scale of 1 to 10? 2 being opening the article and reading about it.

There is nothing in the article about Eastern philosophy. Only Kant is mentioned as a foundation of his thought. There was simply enough of his philosophy for me to notice the parallels.

Ironically, it is clear that you yourself didn't open and read the article before commenting.

I must've confused it with another article about Schopenhauer that I had read earlier which goes more in depth about those influences. He even had a bust of Buddha on his writing desk. My mistake then, I was convinced I had read it in this article.
