Question

READING: Philosophy and Holistic Perspective
A philosopher’s way of thinking is abstractive. The first philosophers noted in history hail from the ancient Greek civilization. What makes this civilization so special for philosophy? If today we have airplanes, satellites, or spaceships that would allow us to see the world from a holistic point of view, these great thinkers in the past used their minds “to see the whole.”
The ancient Greek philosophers asked these questions: “What makes us all connected to each other? What makes us one? What underlies everything that exists?”
Philosophers had insight. Insight means “seeing with the mind.”
Thales is the first noted philosopher in western history. He was a thinker who loved to gaze at the stars. By sensing harmony in the movements of the heavenly bodies, he deduced the relationship of things in the universe. He said that everything is related to each other because everything contains water.
To understand philosophy is to engage in it. This entails opening ourselves up to the experience of questioning our own established beliefs, of looking with the mind beyond what we see with our senses.
If philosophy has a “basic requirement” before one can engage in it, that would be courage to break open our partial perspective for us to have a glimpse of broader truth.
With a holistic perspective we can see the connectedness of parts to see a meaningful whole. Having a glimpse of the whole allows us to see the meaning of the activities that we do every day.​
