Greek Philosophy Table of Contents (Clicking on the links below will take you to that part of this article) Presocratics Socrates and his Followers Plato Aristotle ... Neoplatonism Presocratics Our western philosophical tradition began in ancient Greece in the 6th century BCE. The first philosophers are called "Presocratics" which designates that they came before Socrates. The Presocratics were from either the eastern or western regions of the Greek world. Athens home of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle is in the central Greek region and was late in joining the philosophical game. The Presocratic's most distinguishing feature is emphasis on questions of physics; indeed, Aristotle refers to them as "Investigators of Nature". Their scientific interests included mathematics, astronomy, and biology. As the first philosophers, though, they emphasized the rational unity of things, and rejected mythological explanations of the world. Only fragments of the original writings of the presocratics survive, in some cases merely a single sentence. The knowledge we have of them derives from accounts of early philosophers, such as Aristotle's Physics and Metaphysics The Opinions of the Physicists by Aristotle's pupil Theophratus, and Simplicius, a Neoplatonist who compiled existing quotes.

Store Spotlight: Category Philosophy: History Category Philosophy: General Category Ayn Rand And Objectivism: Philosophical Theory Source : Unavailable Foundations Study Guide: Ancient Greek Philosophy by George Brakas, Ph.D. George Brakas is professor of philosophy at Marist College and author of Aristotle's Concept of the Universal. Before philosophy for tens of thousands of years, human beings did not see the world as we see it. Why did the Nile rise and flood the fields with dark, fertile soil? Because the Pharaoh had commanded it to. Why did the violent storm destroy the village and its people? Because it wished to. "The world appears to primitive man neither inanimate nor empty but redundant with life.... Any phenomenon may at any time face him, not as 'It,' but as 'Thou.' In this confrontation, 'Thou' reveals its individuality, its qualities, its will. 'Thou' is not contemplated with intellectual detachment; it is experienced as life confronting life....Thoughts, no less than acts and feelings, are subordinated to this experience." In this profoundly revealing passage from The Intellectual Adventure of Ancient Man , we see all the essential attributes of how the pre-philosophic mind saw the world it lived in, with its implicit metaphysics, epistemology and ethics: The world is a living being, or a collection of living beings; one comes to "know" it the way one comes to "know" another person, by living with him and getting a feel for who he is and what he will do; and one's life centers around or is dominated by this all-powerful and never-fully-understood creature. It is to the lasting glory of the Greeks that they forever liberated the human mind from these shackles.

var MenuLinkedBy='AllWebMenus [2]', awmBN='530'; awmAltUrl=''; Membership Spirituality Mailing List Hermetic Philosophy The Ancient and Eternal Wisdom The Bible and the Quabalah is solidly rooted in Hermetic Science. Hermetic is derived from the name Hermes (Greek) Throth (Egyptian) and Mercury (Roman). Hermes Trismegustus make his first appearance on Earth in Ancient Egypt. Previous to this cycle he was known as Thoth- the Athenian. To students of the occult his most known work is the emerald tablets. Hermes was the teacher of Abraham and was and still is the God of Wisdom. Among the arts and sciences which it is affirmed Hermes revealed to mankind were medicine, chemistry, law, art, astrology, music (Hermes created the lyre), rhetoric, magic, philosophy, geography, mathematics (especially geometry), anatomy and oratory. In his Biographia Antigua, Francis Barrett says of Hermes..."if God ever appeared in Man, he appeared in him, as is evident both from his books and his Pymander, in which works he has communicated the sum of the Abyss, and the divine knowledge to all posterity, by which he has demonstrated to himself to have been not only an inspired divine, but also a deep philosopher, obtaining wisdom from God and heavenly things, and not from Man." All the fundamental and basic teachings of every race may be traced back to Hermes. Even the most ancient teachings of India have their roots in the original teachings. Interestingly enough, it was at the time of Hermes, in Ancient Egypt that the Great Pyramid of Giza was built. It was in Ancient Egypt that Jesus was initiated into the occult laws and principles. Jesus was a hermetic scientist initiated into Qablah (Hermetic philosophy) in Jerusalem at he age of thirteen.

110. Diogenes Laertius [Internet Encyclopedia Of Philosophy] Concise article on this ancient biographer. http://www.utm.edu/research/iep/d/dioglaer.htm

Diogenes Laertius (3rd cn. CE.) Diogenes Laertius, native of Laerte in Cilicia, was a biographer of ancient Greek philosophers. His Lives of the Philosophers Philosophoi Biol ), in ten books, is still extant and is an important source of information on the development of Greek philosophy. The period when he lived is not exactly known, but it is supposed to have been during the reigns of Septimius Severus and Caracalla. Because of his long and fairly sympathetic account of Epicurus, some think that Diogenes belonged to the Epicurean School, but this is not clear. He expresses his admiration for many philosophers, but his own allegiances, if any, are not stated. He divides all the Greek philosophers into two classes: those of the Ionic and those of the Italic school. He derives the first from Anaximander, the second from Pythagoras. After Socrates, he divides the Ionian philosophers into three branches: (a) Plato and the Academics, down to Clitomachus; (b) the Cynics, down to Chrysippus; (c) Aristotle and Theophrastus. The series of Italic philosophers consists, after Pythagoras, of the following: Telanges, Xenophanes, Parmenides, Zeno of Elea, Leucippus, Democritus, and others down to Epicurus. The first seven books are devoted to the Ionic philosophers; the last three treat of the Italic school. The work of Diogenes is a crude contribution towards the history of philosophy. It contains a brief account of the lives, doctrines, and sayings of most persons who have been called philosophers; and though the author is limited in his philosophical abilities and assessment of the various schools, the book is valuable as a collection of facts, which we could not have learned from any other source, and is entertaining as a sort of

112. Ethics Of Hindu Philosophy By Sanderson Beck An excerpt from the book ancient wisdom and folly by Sanderson Beck. http://www.san.beck.org/EC11-Hindu.html

BECK index Hindu Philosophy Nyaya and Vaishesika Mimamsa ... Bhagavad-Gita This chapter has been published in the book For information on ordering click here. In India there are six orthodox schools of philosophy which recognize the authority of the Vedas as divine revelation, and they generally function as pairs - Nyaya and Vaishesika Mimamsa and Vedanta , and Samkhya and Yoga. Those who did not recognize this authority were the Jains, Buddhists, and materialists. Even in India, where spiritual ideas dominate the culture, there were some who were skeptical of those ideals and held to a materialist view of the world; they were called Carvaka , and their doctrine that this world is all that exists is called Lokayata The materialists did not believe in an afterlife and found sense perception to be the only source of knowledge, denying the validity of inference or general concepts. They focused on the senses and the four traditional elements of earth, water, fire, and air. Consciousness for the Carvaka is only a modification of these elements in the body. The soul is also identified with the body, and pleasure and pain are the central experiences of life, nature being indifferent to good and evil with virtue and vice being merely social conventions. This worldly philosophy naturally ignored the goal of liberation (moksha) or simply believed that death as the end of life and consciousness was a liberation. However, they also tended to neglect the value of virtue or justice

Mind is a formless state.It cannot be brought on record or measured by any of the modern instruments.Fundamentally mind is concerned with the thinking and it's applications.The inputs of the mind are partly dependent on the information / learning from the society itself,but a reasonable part comes from practically the blue as a godgift to certain chosen persons eg.the great masterpiece works of art,literature and scientific inventions. The mind is the motivation of a human being,his steam,his drive,his ambition and his ultimate destiny often.Wonderful faculty that the mind is, has been perplexing since ages as all the scientific advances have failed to analyse the parameters governing the mind.

116. Menippus [Internet Encyclopedia Of Philosophy] Concise entry on this ancient writer and his legacy. http://www.utm.edu/research/iep/m/menippus.htm

Menippus (fl. 250 BCE.) Greek philosopher of Gadara in Syria, who flourished about 250 BCE. Menippus, an adherent of the Cynic School of philosophy, was born at Sinope in Asia Minor, but his family was originally from Gadara, in Palestine. According to Diogenes Laertius, he was at first a slave, but afterward obtained his freedom by purchase, and eventually succeeded, by dint of money, in obtaining citizenship at Thebes. Here he pursued the employment of a money lender, and obtained from this the title "one who lends money at daily interest". Having been defrauded, and having lost, in consequence, all his property, he hung himself in despair. Menippus was the author of several works, now completely lost; they satirized the follies of human kind, especially of philosophers, in a sarcastic tone Among other productions, he wrote a piece entitled "The Sale of Diogenes," and another called "Necromancy". They were a medley of prose and verse, and became models for the satirical works of Varro (hence called Saturae Menippeae . It is suggested that the Necromancy inspired an imitator of Lucian to compose the "Menippus, or Oracle of the Dead," which is found among the works of the native of Samosata.

117. Japanese Rice Culture Essay on ancient rituals and peasant society practices that became part of Japanese traditional culture and still influence present day rural society. http://home.worldcom.ch/~negenter/473bTx_E01.html

JAPANESE RICE CULTURE The Misunderstood Philosophy of the Agrarian Past by Nold Egenter Rice culture? Do we mean culture, or merely cultivation? Rice, once a luxury for the few, is today Japan's staple food, the daily source of energy for over a hundred million people. The rice economy has become important. But because rice in Japan was long the mark of fine living, it has developed an aesthetic aura. Rice as an expression of refined eating habits? The definition would be too narrow. Those who venerate the arts of the steaming dish often forget that rice is also a plant. It has to be tended and cared for, which to the farmer means toil and travail. Yet here again there is an element of culture, embodied this time in coarse cloths, simple tools, unadorned vessels, such as are exhibited in the Museum of Japanese Folk Art (Nihon Mingeikan) in Tokyo. Many people find these things beautiful because they stand for the plain, genuine values of a peasant culture. Straw Culture The rice plant also produces green foliage which, when dry, becomes straw, Japanese wara.

If Atman lacked all-pervasion, the cosmo-evolutionary process would not have been started at all, for there would be no 'simultaneous conjunction with atoms from other regions of space'. The simultaneous conjunction of atoms is necessary for putting the great vehicle of the Universe into motion. Mahesvara, when taken as transcendental entity irrelevant to man, cannot explain the simultaneity of the initial cosmo-synthetic process; nor should one rely upon adrsta. Neither the great Lord of the Universe nor the unseen force count as legitimate categories of the
