Hello students, in this question we've been asked a cornerstone of socrates philosophy is know thy self.
00:13
So what does that mean to you and what are your thoughts on socrates dualistic notion of reality? so the idea of know thy self this means that you need to understand your own thoughts, own thoughts, feelings, motivation in order to be able to make better decisions.
00:45
This is what i think it means.
00:48
Coming to the second question that he believed that the reality was dualistic.
00:57
Reality is dualistic and the meaning of that are that there are two separate aspects to everything.
01:11
He called these aspects the mind and body.
01:18
Coming to the next question, do you agree with plato that the soul can be broken down into three components? so plato believed that the soul is made up of three parts, reason, spirit and appetite.
01:38
So the reason being that eternal aspect and the spirit being the most active part of the soul.
01:57
Coming to the next question, augustine of hippo ultimately came to the conclusion that body was a spouse to the soul.
02:15
So do you agree with the conclusion? so he came to the conclusion, he believed that the body was created for the purpose of serving the soul.
02:25
So with that aspect, with that understanding, it's not right to assume that spouse means someone who serves to you or their purpose is to serve you.
02:38
But that ideology that comparison is very good that the body's purpose is to serve the soul, but should not be compared to a spouse that serves you.
02:52
So i do not completely agree with the analogy, but i agree the idea behind it.

Coming to the next question, thomas aquinas agreeing to aristotle concludes that things have proper t laws and that the proper t laws for a human person is to exercise reason because reason is the highest of all human capacities.
03:26
Aristotle tells us that humans desire to know.
03:31
Do you agree with this or not? so he believed.
03:37
Now this idea that human desires to know is absolutely true because we are the most curious living beings.
03:52
We want to know why the earth spins, why do we have weather...
