DEFINITION OF PHILOSOPHY 6  DEFINITION OF PHILOSOPHY PHILO SOPHI A DEFINITION OF PHILOSOPHY WISDO 7 Famous Philosophers  Thales of Miletus Traditionally regarded as the first Western philosopher and mathematician. Presentation title  Thales of Miletus Thales was the founder of the philosophy that all of Nature had developed from one source. Presentation title  Heraclitus Heraclitus propounded a distinctive theory which he expressed in oracular language. He is best known for his doctrines that things are constantly changing (universal flux), that opposites coincide (unity of opposites), and that fire is the basic material of the world. Presentation title  Heraclitus. “Heraclitus, I believe, says that all things go and nothing stays, and comparing existents to the flow of a river, he says you could not step twice into the same river” Presentation title  Pythagoras Pythagoras Greek philosopher formulated principles that influenced the thought of Plato and Aristotle and contributed to the development of mathematics and Western rational philosophy. Pythagoras thought that no man could posses’ wisdom, which is a most comprehensive and profound knowledge of things. Wisdom was a privileged Presentation title  Pythagoras Transmigration of the soul- In other words, the soul is something that exists beyond death, and that can be reborn in other bodies: whether human or animal. There is a famous story told by Diogenes Laërtius about Pythagoras Presentation title  Pythagoras he said that the soul is immortal; second, that it migrates into other kinds of animals; third, that the same events are repeated in cycles, nothing being new in the strict sense; and finally, that all things with souls should be regarded as akin. Pythagoras seems to have Presentation title  Socrates Founding father of Western philosop hy ,he thought Western civilization the art of questioning, his method is called ELENCHUS. For Socrates, the only true knowing is docta ignorantia – to know that you do not know. And according to him “The unexamined life is not worth living” Presentation title  Socrates He believes that true learning is always dialogical. Both teacher and student are a part of the active search for knowledge. both should listen not only with an open mind but more importantly, with a humble heart. True knowledge must lead to real virtue. This virtue is called arête or the “virtue of perfection”. Wisdom, is moral wisdom not just intellectual wisdom, Education is the perfection of the human person, that is, the whole person.3 Presentation title  Socrates “Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.” Presentation title  PLATO Student of Socrates and founder of the Academy, Plato’s Academy was not a formal school or college in the sense we're familiar with. Rather, it was a more informal society of intellectuals who shared a common interest in studying subjects such as philosophy, mathematics, and astronomy. Presentation title  PLATO “We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.” Presentation title  ARISTOTLE Student of Plato, he is the first to call Thales the "First Philosopher“ stablished his own school known as the Lyceum. Aristotle asserts that all communities aim at some good. what makes for good government and what makes for bad government and to identify the factors favorable or unfavorable to the preservation of a constitution. Presentation title  ARISTOTLE “Learning is not child's play; we cannot learn without pain.” “men cannot know each other till they have ‘eaten salt together’;” Presentation title  ARISTOTLE Tripartition of the soul 1.Nutritive soul is the first and most widely shared among all living things. For it can be said that anything that takes in nutrition, grows from this nutrition, and eventually decays over time has a soul. 2. Sensible soul, or the soul of perception, is the part of the soul that allows us to perceive the world around us. 3. Rational soul belongs to man alone. The rational soul is that by virtue of which we possess the capacity for rational thought. Presentation title  ARISTOTLE The 3 Kinds of Friendships 1) Friendships of utility: exist between you and someone who is useful to you in some way. 2) Friendships of pleasure: exist between you and those whose company you enjoy. Often, these are "activity buddies“. 3) Friendships of the good: are based on mutual respect and admiration. These friendships take longer to build than the other two kinds--but they're also more powerful and enduring. Presentation title “ What is an Insight? ”  INSIGHT According to Filipino Philosopher Fr. Roque Ferriols “an insight is a kind of seeing with the mind.” It is to realize the meaning of something. An insight is something emerges when we are thrown into situation. The process of arriving at an insight is called abstraction.
