What is Philosophy?
The dictionary defines philosophy as
1. The inquiry into the most comprehensive principles of reality in general. or of some limited sector of it such as human knowledge or human values.
2. The love of wisdom, and the search for it.
3. A philosophical system: also, a treatise on such a system.
4. The general laws that furnish the rational explanation of anything: the philosophy of banking.
5. Practical wisdom; fortitude, as in enduring reverses and suffering.
and the internet defines it as
6. A Skin Care System
Who could have guessed that my research into a topic my daughter was interested in would produce a skin care system. Anyone searching on Google for philosophy topics will see the skin care system as number one topic.
So if a Philosopher is
1. a student of or specialist in philosophy.
2. The creator of a system of philosophy.
3. One who lives, thinks, makes judgments, etc. according to a system of philosophy.
4. One who is calm and patient under all circumstances.
then is 5. the creator of the philosophy skin care system or the sales person.
The word philosophy comes from the Greek (what else) meaning lover of wisdom.
I would guess that most people have heard of the philosopher's stone -- An imaginary stone or substance capable of transmuting the baser metals into gold.
So is philosophy the skin care system the real philosopher's stone for aging skin. Is it worth trying - at the best it will do everything claimed and the worst you will be actively doing something to improve your skin.
CAN YOU HAVE A BELIEF IN SOME WAY OF LIVING AND NOT LIVE THAT WAY?
To my mind, your philosophy is what you are living. You may not fall into a specific discipline because you have developed your philosophy by living your life with all the input you received from friends, family and perhaps most important those that had no love for you.
At the basic level you believe that you can change things or you believe that nothing you do will have any effect.
You say you believe in God, justice, equality, healthy living, sharing,learning, wisdom, happiness, the list goes on and on.
But, how do you live? Does your belief in God tell you to treat everyone else in the world as a much loved member of your family? Do you?
Do you treat yourself as a much loved member of your family?
Do you treat your body with respect, giving it nutrition and exercise. Do you treat your mind with respect, giving it the opportunity to continue to learn and think.
In this period of economic crisis do you live in hope or despair. This too will pass and in its passing will create change. Change is neither good nor bad -- only change. In the final analysis all life is lived from your own perspective of what is good or bad. And that is your philosophy.
