What is philosophy and why it is important?

Philosophy is one of the unique tool which we can use to answer the unanswered questions. Philosophy begins from one point and ends at 'infinity'.


MEANING OF WORD 'PHILOSOPHY'

The word 'philosophy' is derived from two words that is 'philo' and 'sophy'. 'Philo' means 'love' and 'Sophy' means 'wisdom' . Combined meaning of both is 'love to wisdom'.

 WHY PHILOSOPHY IS SO IMPORTANT?
Philosophy helps us to learn ' how to learn '. According to me philosophy is not a subject , it is one of main part of the life of all human beings living on this earth . I does not means to say that every person has to become a philosopher in his life ......
'I means to say that every person on this earth has to become a philosopher in his own field of creativity'.

If a person is doing what he likes to do and the work which he do generates the feeling of curiosity in his mind , then that is the beginning of the the philosophy of what he likes to do . In simple words doing the research on your hobby .


WHAT IS THE MEANING OF PHILOSOPHY IN OUR REAL LIFE? 

 To understand it have a look at these great sentences written by great people :-
 These lines make us clear understanding about word philosophy. Philosophy is generally the deep way of looking into the nature. When a person arise many questions like how universe was really formed? , why human beings exist on this earth ? Etc.

 According to me a person who is interested in the word 'why' then he is said to be a 'philosopher', in simple words a person who is interested in knowing the reason behind everything which exist in our universe means he is interested in philosophy. These three sentences clearly indicates the true meaning of philosophy as these are related to 'why'.

 There are many different chores which we do daily , but in language of philosophy it is not the chores which matters . The thing which matters the most according to philosophy is why we are doing these daily chores. Philosophy also arises the questions like :- what we are doing , is it able to discover new ideas and new things or not ? ..etc.  Philosophy helps a person to develop a strong desire of learning about his passion.

 There are many thoughts which comes in our daily life . Why we are thinking is much more important than what we are thinking . To think like a philosopher, first we have notice why we are thinking . We have to think in such a way that our mind will grow and develop.  When we are feeling something , here the task of Philosophy is to judge why we feel something, means to do research on science behind feeling. In a similar way Philosophy helps to arise many conceptual and mysterious questions in different fields. 

 REMEMBER WHEN WE THINK LIKE A PHILOSOPHER , WE WILL BE EASILY DISCOVER WHY WE ARE ACTUALLY THINKING AND ALSO WE CAN TEACH OTHERS 'HOW TO THINK '.

For majority of people 'Philosophy' is so hard to visualise . To visualise it properly , there is a need to compare it with a thing which is quite understandable . And that understandable thing is 'science' . This logical sentence given by 'Bertrand Russell' is doing the same thing . By comparing science with Philosophy , it is so much simple to visualise the word Philosophy. There are many mysteries questions which are still unsolved in the field of science , then it is the Philosophy of science which comes into play to deal with these unsolved mysteries. In general the knowledge which we have now about our whole universe is science , but the major part of universe which is still undiscovered is Philosophy. 

By comparing Philosophy with science most people think that science is fine , but  they think Philosophy means depression or overthinking. According to me philosophy is not depression or overthinking it means over valuable as well as over entertaining. The people who think Philosophy means overthinking or depression then those people only know the price of things, not the value of things.

If we want to explain as well explore our universe deeply then we have to combine both Philosophy and science together, because Philosophy helps us to arise logical and mysterious questions and science helps to explain those questions in a much more effective way.

Buddha's teachings

Buddha teaches many people after he got enlightenment, some of these teachings are here with their explanations:- 1.)   The feeling of kindness develop inside you when you help someone in intense problem. Some people does not have feeling of kindness , thats  why they expect something in return after helping others .The people who expect something are just doing business not the act of kindness. If you  expect something after helping others, it is just the act of destroying  your kindness. By expecting something you will only leads to disappointment in the end. After helping others you will not have to worry about getting something in return, you will automatically get satisfaction and thrillness which no one can give you. Help others through your heart ,it will not expect something  from others. " So remember if you spread the feeling of kindness people give you kindness in return. Be kind." 2.)

Real vs Fake education

According to my point of view ,education is a tool which you can use to make you think effectively ,so that one can use his intelligence to serve our world.  At first ,I want to start with the simple understanding of word 'education' . What is the true meaning of word education, we have, I think forgotten it. We are treating our childrens or students in the university, as if they are empty baskets, and we are to fill that baskets with a lot of knowledge, a lot of information and so on. But the meaning of education is ' not to fill'   an empty bucket. The meaning of education is to bring out what is in there.  "Educare" the Latin word is to lead out,to bring out what is in the child. So education never stops at school or university. Education is life long process.  Education is a very profound word with very profound meaning, just on this single word you can write a whole book.  So now the question arises how in your whole life you are goin...
