PHIL 3910 Lecture Notes - Lecture 8: Indian Philosophy
Document Summary
Hindu philosopher"s = relationship of things, helpful in its intention but not in its presentation-it"s confusing. 1 vs 2, things you start with and their essence of earth. Water as plants, as a person, as speech, as hymn, as cahnt, singing. Essence-> matter (elements) earth is compacted water, thales all is water. The criteria changes, the essence of earth is water, the element goes from made from to made into, the opposite as product. Made from and made into, in once case you"re going back and in another you"re going forward, assuming it"s not just carless and that there is a reason: try: All things are related in one way or another and it doesn"t matter which way you go. You can connect things in all kinds of ways to each other. Parts of a whole, but the whole is visible in each of the parts. Everything is connected but the whole is in each of the parts.
