Abstract

This thesis with a very personal motivation. I joined the Society of Jesus as an Asian Chinese Malaysian. I was sent to the Ateneo de Manila University in the Philippines for my basic philosophical training. Although the university is situated in Asia, the philosophical courses I received there and then were basically western. Then came my basic theological formation, for that I was sent to the Milltown Institute of Theology and Philosophy in Dublin, Ireland. Though being grateful for the chance to engage in "faith seeking understanding, " at the end my Asian soul gently stirred up and became restless as a subtle way to protest its undernourishment. For that reason I volunteered to come back to the Asian soil in search for a reconnection with my Asian root and an interconnection between the west and the east in me.
