Calling for a revival of intellectual intuition in metaphysics long
after its banning by Kant, Kenneth Rose overcomes the forgetfulness of
being through contemplative ontology. Rose argues for the
reinstatement of intellectual intuition in metaphysics long after its
banning by Kant. His claim is not merely the conclusion of a
thought-experiment or of an exercise in conceptual analysis. It is the
result of the contemplative recognition of being with a meditatively
concentrated intellect: nous in Greek and buddhi in Sanskrit.
Recognizing intellectual intuition as a long-neglected faculty of
philosophical insight, Rose shows how it can result in an immediate,
intuitive discerning of being. He discusses how being parcels itself
out into the intellectual forms providing the underlying nonphysical
arrangement of the physical and mental worlds. By reviving the use of
intellectual intuition in metaphysics, Rose draws upon historical
sources across multiple Asian and Anglo-European philosophical
schools. This is a work of contemplative constructive philosophy that
breaks down divisions between science, philosophy, and religion and
between diverse cultures and divergent worldviews.
