Publisher's Synopsis
Traditional philosophy is no longer viable,? ?relevant and acceptable.? ?It might be possible to continue doing philosophizing in traditional ways.? ?It is possible to continue fabricating fictional realities in the manner of the Pre-Socratics,? ?Spinoza,? ?Leibniz,? ?Husserl,? ?Hegel,? ?Plato,? ?et al.? ?It is possible to devise pictures of realities and depictions of? ?human consciousness and cognition like Descartes or in the Kantian manner. One of the major issues with traditional philosophy is its lack of self-awareness,? ?the absence of meta-cognition.? ?This lack of meta-cognition of traditional philosophers leads to the creation of all sorts of questionable phenomena and fake problems. Traditional philosophy,? ?metaphysics,? ?ontology,? ?epistemology,? ?ethics,? ?philosophy of sciences,? ?religion,? ?arts,? ?etc are little more than the possibilities,? ?limits and restrictions enabled and allowed by the philosopher's methodology,? ?techniques and tools.? It is most likely possible to envisage a project to devise a collection or synthesis of? ?many alternative realities by means of the insights and theories of theoretical physics,? ?mathematics,? ?bio-chemistry,? ?biology and other sciences,? ?the depictions produced by the arts and pictures of realities presented by the humanities.? ?If such a system of pictures of reality is philosophically relevant and meaningful is however another matter. The original,? ?creative thinking philosopher constitutes alternative or new realities by his philosophizing.? ?This philosophizing employs and resembles aspects and stages of the processes of theorizing. The real goal of philosophizing is to increase ever greater wisdom.? ?Not merely wisdom in an abstract sense,? ?but different kinds of practical and applied wisdom in all areas of human,? ?everyday existence.? ?In other words,? ?like spirituality and mysticism philosophizing attempts to embody or incarnate wisdom.? ?While mysticism or the mystical paths and aspects of religions aspire to unity experience,? ?to become one with THE ONE,? ?to become the ONE,? ?REAL SELF,? ?to realize the Buddha mind or to be united or? '?married?' ?to the Beloved of Sufism.
