Metaphysics Philosophy

Todos los hombres tienen por naturaleza el deseo de saber. Con estas palabras se inicia el libro primero de la Metafísica de Aristóteles. Ese deseo de saber culmina en la adquisición de la sabiduría que consiste, para Aristóteles, en el conocimiento de las causas y los principios del ser. Y ese conocimiento es el objeto de la metafísica, de la ciencia de las primeras causas y principios del ser, el conocimiento del ser "en cuanto ser", el conocimiento de la causa última de la naturaleza y de la realidad.

What is the meaning of life? Why am I here? How can I experience ultimate peace of mind? These are some of the few questions you probably ask yourself.

Monty era un perro cualquiera. Un maltés terrier irascible y gruñón.

Transcendence and History is an analysis of what philosopher Eric Voegelin described as “the decisive problem of philosophy”: the dilemma of the discovery of transcendent meaning and the impact of this discovery on human self-understanding. The explicit recognition and symbolization of transcendent meaning originally occurred in a few advanced civilizations worldwide during the first millennium.

This volume gathers studies by prominent scholars and philosophers about the question how have major figures from the history of philosophy, and some contemporary philosophers, addressed "the ultimate why question": why is there anything at all rather than nothing whatsoever? The authors take this question seriously, striving to go beyond accounting for the present state of reality as distinguished from a prior or subsequent state, to the more profound question of discerning why anything whatsoever exists.

Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) ist bis heute einer der bedeutendsten Philosophen. Die Grundlegung zur Metaphysik der Sitten ist eine der wichtigsten Schriften Immanuel Kants. Sie wurde zum ersten Mal im Jahre 1785 gedruckt. Hier stellt Kant eine wesentliche Regel für sittliches Handeln vor, den kategorischen Imperativ: „Handle nur nach derjenigen Maxime, durch die du zugleich wollen kannst, dass sie ein allgemeines Gesetz werde.“ Dieses Audiobook gibt die Gelegenheit, hörend Kants Entfaltung des kategorischen Imperativs nachzuvollziehen.

Does science have all the answers? Can it even deal with abstract reasoning that reaches beyond the world experienced by us? How can we be so sure that the physical world is sufficiently ordered to be intelligible to humans? How is it that mathematics, a product of human minds, can unlock the secrets of the physical universe? Are all such questions to be ruled out as inadmissible if science cannot settle them? Metaphysics has traditionally been understood as reasoning beyond the reach of science, sometimes even claiming realities that are beyond its grasp.

What is a theory? What is natural law? Can you have the philosophy of philosophy? What is “is ought”? What is natural philosophy? What does natural philosophy mean? What good is a forgotten knowledge? Is there a difference between believing in God and in natural philosophy? Why don’t they teach philosophy in schools? Sociology is not as known as physics or philosophy - why? Does it matter?

After six hours of full-moon meditation inside the Egyptian pyramids and a two-hour activation session with a mysterious lightworker from Brazil, I was blasted open. For the next month, I woke up every morning and channeled messages into my journal, eyes closed most of the time, my hand literally moving faster than my brain could keep up. There were no edits made, just a full free-flowing download from who-knows-where. I thought it was cool. My friends thought it was profound. What became absolutely clear was that it was supposed to be available for anyone ready to receive it.

Art is the creative manifestation of essences. In order to understand the relation between art and reality, we need a philosophical guide. The best way to comprehend how the creative act of imagining enables the mind to seek reality is to employ the kind of dialectical thinking that Plato used in his dialogues. Beginning with the shadows on the wall of the cave in which each person dwells, that process gradually enables us to grasp the essences that are manifested in individual works of art.

Schopenhauer: here's when great philosophy can be somber, pessimistic, even brutal, and still resonate with a sarcastic laugh. He was among the first to contend that the universe is essentially not a rational place; in his most famous work, "The World as Will and Representation", he argues that the individuals of a species do not have as much free will as is ordinarily thought, as the only will that matters is that of the species, which is to reproduce and carry on. Schopenhauer is very well-known for his radical stance on women, aesthetics, and rhetoric.

Sorprende que a 140 años de la muerte de Schopenhauer aún existan textos inéditos de su obra. El amor es un sentimiento humano que puede crecer hasta opacar cualquier aspiración, determinación o certeza del individuo e incluso llevarlo a sacrificar su vida, y sin embargo, en palabras de Arthur Schopenhauer, había sido "totalmente ignorado por los filósofos" hasta que éste lo interpretó metafísica y trascendentemente.
