The classical philosophers in china. The most of the philosophers thinks that there is some barren in the classical philosophy. The constrains in the classical philosophy May leads to the poor philosophical view in the Chinese philosophy. The other philosophers counter argued about the defects in the classical philosophy. At the same time classical philosophy teaches the new way of philosophical view and it counter argued about the Buddhism philosophy, since the Buddhism philosophy were accepted in most of the other cultures. The some of the Chinese culture objects the Buddhism philosophy. The classical philosophy of Chinese followed the concepts of metaphysics that was enriched in Buddhism even though it gave different concepts on the Meta physics and it clearly seems to objects the concepts of the Chinese philosophy.
