Philosophical Speculations

The symbiosis between plants or between plants and animals is interesting. Usually in an idealistic worldview there is a tendency to see man as the crown of creation. Often the disadvantage of such a worldview is the reduction of M@L or of God - to those whose idealistic tendency is not atheistic - ...

I would not even go far to aliens. To me, the Sapir–Whorf hypothesis is not entirely unfounded. It is possible that the fact that a person speaks another language makes him look at reality a little differently. As one whose English is not his first language (as can be noticed) I find for example tha...

First, a number of interpretations have been given to what Kant said, and I do not think the word dualism is accurate here. Maimon's discussion is done in the context of Kant's critical idealism, ie he does not skip over Kant as Hegel did. If we proceed from the premise that science is right, Maimo...

Following the above, I will quote from the words of philosopher Hugo Bergman: ... It is interesting that Bergman, who was a friend of Rudolf Steiner and mentions his name in several articles, did not mention him in his book "Introduction to Epistemology ." Instead he devoted an entire cha...

I'm not used to listening to Peterson much, but I listened a little to what he said, and as one who greatly appreciates Victor Frenkel, it's hard for me to ignore Frenkel's music in Peterson's words. Peterson speaks of meaning and values, of these being transcendent as a condition to demand man and...

It seems, as Schopenhauer has already pointed out, that German idealism is imbued with Spinoza. So at least philosophically, one can find a connecting line that goes from Spinoza to Hegel, and from there to Steiner. This is generally the case. With Hegel philosophy reaches its final frontier - thin...

Western esoterism steps on the foundations of the East and the Middle-East . It seems, as Schopenhauer has already pointed out, that German idealism is imbued with Spinoza. So at least philosophically, one can find a connecting line that goes from Spinoza to Hegel, and from there to Steiner. In the...

Following the above, I will quote from the words of philosopher Hugo Bergman: Our mind is a finite, discursive mind, that is, our mind 'begins in the middle and ends in the middle', as Shlomo Maimon writes. The treasure of truths, which we have acquired for ourselves, is always surrounded by the 'au...

I follow your drift. And if we want to avoid these mistakes and their consequences we must be humble about the things we still cannot understand. I used to have long discussions with the most evolved man I've ever known. At a certain point in our discussions he would stop more talk saying, "We...
