Philosophical
Reflection
Difficult questions that do not have definite
answers like the ones we have been describing
are significant. These sort of questions are
called philosophical.

“Not to ask a
philosophical question
is to go through life
confused and lost.”

“Why am I
here?”
If interpreted as a question of purpose for existing, we see how
the totality of existence is actually involved. Inevitably, we will
have to include the aspect who determines our purpose aside
from what is our purpose. Thus, to philosophize is to look at
life from a holistic perspective.

Philosophy as
Universal
For Heidegger, a scientific question is
always confined to the particular, whereas
a philosophical question “leads into the
totality of beings” and “inquiries into the
whole”(Heidegger 2002, The Essense of
Human Freedom, 9).

C. Truth and
Dialectics
Socrates
Views need to be defended with
consistency and clarity.
A claim or proposition requires sufficient
proof and logical argument to be
regarded as true.
One has to give good reasons as basis
for any claim and the claim must be able
to withstand further scrutiny and
examinations.

The interplay of opposing views is necessary
for progress. We need this exchange of ideas
so we can grow.
