According to the causal emergence theory, the quality of a theory depends on the strength of causality, that is, the size of <math>EI</math>. Different coarse-graining schemes result in distinct macroscopic theories (macroscopic dynamics). It is very likely that when facing the same research object of complex systems, the Western philosophical and scientific system gives a set of relatively specific and microscopic causal mechanisms (dynamics), while Eastern philosophy gives a set of more coarsely grained macroscopic causal mechanisms. According to the causal emergence theory or the [[Causal Equivalence Principle]] proposed by Yurchenko, the two are completely likely to be compatible with each other. That is to say, for the same set of phenomena, the East and the West can make correct predictions and even intervention methods according to two different sets of causal mechanisms. It is also possible that in certain types of problems or phenomena, a more macroscopic causal mechanism is more explanatory or leads to a good solution. For some problems or phenomena, a more microscopic causal mechanism is more favorable.

For example, in Eastern philosophy, the [[five elements]] can be interpreted as  macroscopic states, with their mutual generation and restraint representing a macroscopic causal mechanism. The process of identifying these five states from all phenomena is a coarse-graining process dependent on the observer's ability to analogize. Therefore, the theory of five elements can be regarded as an abstract causal emergence theory for everything. Similarly, the concept of causal emergence can be extended to fields like traditional Chinese medicine, divination, and feng shui. The common point of these applications will be that its causal mechanism is simpler and possibly has stronger causality compared to Western science. However, the process of obtaining such an abstract coarse-graining is more complex and more dependent on experienced abstractors. This explains why Eastern philosophies all emphasize the self-cultivation of practitioners. This is because Eastern philosophical theories place significant complexity and computational demands on '''analogical thinking'''.
