Excerpt from Question of Terms Simplified: Or the Meaning of Shan, Ling, and Ti in Chinese Made Plain by Induction
IT has long appeared to me that the question of terms for God and Spirit in Chinese has been rendered ten-fold more complicated and difficult of settlement than it need be by the manner in which almost every writer has treated it. I by no means plead innocent in this respect. I have felt the temptation to discuss irrelevent topics, and raise side issues, to take advantage of a neighbour's slip at one point, and run off into a dense fog at another, to play in fact at the game of terms, instead of simply trying to elucidate the question in the interests of truth.
