Philosophia (philosophy) is a term created by the ancient Greeks 2500 years ago, which means to love wisdom, that is, the ideological and cognitive activities carried out by human beings in order to improve their cognitive thinking ability and become smarter.
The original paradigm of western philosophy originated from Socrates, Plato and Aristotle in ancient Greece, and the later philosophical views were mostly footnotes of their philosophical theories. China's philosophical thoughts should have sprouted in the troubled times of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and various ideological trends collided with sparks of wisdom.
Philosophy is a mysterious knowledge because its research appearance is a metaphysical part of life, which is far from most people's life ontology. In recent years, the post-modern philosophy, focusing on the present, reinterprets the connotation and extension of philosophy in the deconstruction and reorganization of modern humanistic spirit. In fact, as early as centuries ago, Aristotle had set a good example for us, that is, combining philosophy with literature, medicine, linguistics, mathematics and other disciplines. In this way, we can not only expand the research field of philosophy, but also help other disciplines and even the evolution of human civilization.
The earliest contact with philosophy began with Qu Yuan's Tian Wen, which was still in the stage of enlightenment education, but the question that hit the floor left a deep imprint on his mind. Later, I studied Confucian classics, contacted hundreds of schools, and got a little understanding of China's early philosophy. Later, I came into contact with it when I was studying history. Water is the source of the world? Thales, invention? Pythagorean theorem? Pythagoras and Plato wrote the immortal masterpiece The Republic. At this point, I have an ignorant memory of the origin of Chinese and western philosophy. Just at this time, most of the philosophical thoughts I came into contact with were primitive philosophical forms that explored the origin of human beings and the reincarnation of all things. Philosophical mystery? .
Later, I read some books on modern philosophy, gradually clarified the development of western philosophy and deepened my understanding of philosophy. The basic problem of philosophy is actually the relationship between thinking and existence. It includes two aspects:
(1) What is the primary problem of thinking and existence? Different answers to this question are the only criterion to distinguish materialism from idealism. Anyone who thinks that existence determines thinking is materialism; Anyone who thinks that thinking determines existence is idealism.
(2) Whether thinking and existence are identical, that is, whether thinking can correctly understand the existing problems. The difference on this issue is the standard to divide knowability and agnosticism. Anyone who thinks that thinking can correctly understand existence is knowability; Anyone who thinks that thinking cannot correctly understand existence is an agnostic.
In the final analysis, philosophy discusses nothing more than world outlook and methodology. World outlook is people's general and fundamental view of the whole world and the relationship between people and the world, and methodology is the fundamental way for people to understand and transform the world. Everyone has a world outlook and methodology. Generally speaking, the world outlook determines methodology, and methodology embodies the world outlook. What kind of world outlook there is, what kind of methodology there is. Philosophy is a systematic and theoretical world outlook, which determines methodology, and philosophy is the unity of world outlook and methodology.
For a long time, philosophy has always been placed in an awkward position by academic circles and often shelved by people. At this moment, we should make clear the name of philosophy and the relationship between philosophy and other disciplines: (1) specific scientific is the foundation of philosophy, and philosophy is the generalization, summary and reflection of specific scientific. Therefore, specific scientific's progress promoted the development of philosophy. (2) Philosophy provides the guidance of world outlook and methodology for concrete science. Only by adhering to the correct world outlook and methodology can scientists grasp the correct direction in their research activities. Throughout the ages, no matter in the fields of humanities and social sciences or natural sciences, almost all outstanding experts have their own unique philosophical views. It can be seen that the importance of philosophy to other disciplines is self-evident.
Philosophy is to life what monosodium glutamate is to dishes. Although it can't occupy the mainstream of life, it is closely related to our life noumenon and guides our soul to the place of true faith. Time flies, we are not who we used to be. From the perspective of development and connection, we all have no right to judge others. Recognize yourself and make yourself better. Now end with a self-appointed short sentence:
20 1 1 year, the last day of September, a sleepy lunch, a sunny evening.
Muddy birds flying before our eyes, muddy swamps, traces of struggle.
Butterflies turn into painful scabs. Tears of pain.
Hiding in the pink world with a heavy package, I was frightened, dull and in a trance.
When the student's career is approaching the fourteenth year, everything is no longer important.
The unknown future makes everything dim.
In this way, running in the dark tunnel, there is a slight light in the distance, whistling in the ear.
The thought of becoming another strange self still fills my heart with emotion.
Apart from the past, everything is fine under the softest scar I try not to touch.
At the very least, we are all safe.
Time is powerful and finally gives in to this sentence. Can wash away everything, including the feelings at that time.
How important is it to stick to it now?
Follow your heart and never forget to smile.
