1 John 2, verses 15-17:

Don't love the world or anything that belongs to the world. If you love the world, you cannot love the Father. 16 Our foolish pride comes from this world, and so do our selfish desires and our desire to have everything we see. None of this comes from the Father. 17 The world and the desires it causes are disappearing. But if we obey God, we will live forever.

You see, there is NO conflict between Oriental and Occidental principles.

Not bad, hey, considering I'm an atheist!? :wink:
