Why do you think Europeans were so fascinated by Chinese arts and culture that they created a new design style called chinoiserie, a kind of Westernized Asian design style? Can you think of current examples of fashion, furniture, and other arts and crafts that are Westernized versions of another culture’s traditional styles?

The Europeans were so fascinated by the Chinese art and culture mainly because of how created and talented they were. Take New York for example one thing that we all know and love is time square that is there symbol for New YOrk

atman means 'eternal self'. the atman refers to the real self beyond ego or false self. it is often referred to as 'spirit' or 'soul' and indicates our true self or essence which underlies our existence.

there are many interesting perspectives on the self in hinduism ranging from the self as eternal servant of god to the self as being identified with god. the understanding of the self as eternal supports the idea of reincarnation in that the same eternal being can inhabit temporary bodies.

the idea of atman entails the idea of the self as a spiritual rather than material being and thus there is a strong dimension of hinduism which emphasises detachment from the material world and promotes practices such as asceticism. thus it could be said that in this world, a spiritual being, the atman, has a human experience rather than a human being having a spiritual experience.
