Broadening
your
Perspective
Take Note: Write It in Your Notebook.
The word philosophy comes from two Greek words: philos (love) and sophia (wisdom). The ancient
Greeks used this term to refer to “love of wisdom” and they soon applied it to the study or discipline that uses
human reason to investigate the ultimate causes, reasons, and principles which govern all things. Philosophy is
the study of general and fundamental questions about existence, knowledge, values, reason, mind, and
language. Philosophy in simple words is a way of thinking about the world, the universe, and society. It works by
asking very basic questions about the nature of human thought, the nature of the universe, and the connections
between them. The ideas in philosophy are often general and abstract. Philosophy is the study of humans and
the world by thinking and asking questions. It is a science and an art. Philosophy tries to answer important
questions by coming up with answers about real things and asking "why?"

A. EXPLORE

WHAT’S NEW?
Do you know of some Greek Philosophers?

Philosophers- are people who engage in philosophy.

Direction: Identify the following person in the picture below. Write your answer on the
space provided below.

B. LEARN
WHAT IS IT?

The most notable ancient Greek philosophers are:
Pythagoras (570 BCE to 495 BCE)- A mathematician
and scientist, he was credited with
formulating the Pythagorean theorem.
Heraclitus (535 BCe to 475 BCE)- He proposed that
everything that exists is based on a
higher order or plan which he called logos.
Democritus (460 BCE to 370 BCE)- He devoted
himself to the study of the causes of natural
phenomena.
Diogenes of Sinope (412 BCE to 323 BCE)- He was
a known advocate of living a simple and
virtuous life.
Epicurus (341 BCE to 270 BCE)- He believed that
philosophy could enable man to live a life
of happiness.
Socrates (470 BCE to 399 BCE)- He was considered
the foremost philosophers of ancient
times. He was credited with formulating the Socratic
method- means of
 examining a topic by devising a series of questions that
let the learner examine
and analyze his knowledge and views regarding the
topic.
Plato (427 BCE to 347 BCE)- A student of Socrates,
he wrote down his mentor’s teaching and
incorporated some of his own ideas into them. Plato’s
most significant ideas
included his Theory of Forms, which proposes that
everything that exist is based
on an idea or template than can only be perceived in
the mind. Plato is also
known for his dialectic- a method of inquiry where two
opposing ideas are
discussed in an attempt to arrive at new knowledge.
Plato’s lasting contribution
to learning was his founding of the Academy, an
institution of higher learning.
Aristotle (384 BCE to 322 BCE)- He attended the
Academy, and was the prominent student
of Plato. For him, all ideas and views are based on
perception and our reality is
based on what we can sense and perceive. His studies
in logic led to the
formulation of a formal process of analyzing reasoning
which give rise to
deductive reasoning-the process by which specific
statements are analyzed to
reach a conclusion or generalization.

B. LEARN
We have already discussed the meaning of Philosophy from our previous lesson. Now, let us proceed to another
topic.
WHAT I KNOW?
 Holistic thinking refers to a perspective that considers large-scale patterns in systems. A holistic
perspective requires an individual to have an open mindset and ability to get the general sense or
impression regarding a situation.
 Partial thinking focuses on specific aspects of a situation. The partial view is an important component of
analytical thinking, as an individual focus on certain areas or aspects of a problem in order to understand
it.
C. ENGAGE

There are two different types of thinking, based on the picture list down your idea about what kind of thinking
the students used about the scenario in that picture.

Draw your understanding about “holistic thinking”

Take note:
The term "holistic thinking" refers to a big picture mentality in which a person recognizes the interconnectedness of
various elements that form larger systems, patterns and objects. Thinking holistically is the opposite of analyzing
something, which involves breaking down a larger system into its details. Holistic medicine is a prominent example of
holistic thinking. A medical professional who believes in holistic care considers the relationship between the mind, body
and spirit. For example, holistic doctors don't just provide patients with medications. Instead, they look at ways to
improve life balance and eradicate health problems from their root source, such as high stress or bad nutrition. In
philosophy, point of view describes the perception of an event or phenomenon and how exactly it is viewed. Point of view
 often is shaped by an individual's beliefs or experiences. Though partial thinking is useful, philosophy utilizes holistic
thinking in making sense of problems and issues related to the human experience. People tend to apply an analytical
perspective when looking at problems or situations. A holistic view gives rise to a more appreciative perspective about
life, as we are able to look at life in its totality.

3. Doing a philosophical reflection on a concrete situation from holistic perspective
SUBTASK:
The Value of Doing Philosophy in Obtaining a Broad Perspective on Life

A. EXPLORE

B. LEARN
WHAT’S IN!

Plato traced man’s need to philosophize to his sense of wonder. Whenever we are confronted with an experience, we
always wonder how it came about. French philosopher Rene Descartes traced the need to philosophize to doubt. In life,
we will be faced with several ideas and arguments which present themselves as “truths”. A critical and questioning
perspective is necessary to determine if indeed these ideas or views are correct or true. Swiss-German philosopher Karl
Jaspers saw the need to philosophize because of experience. These experiences limit situation, philosophy provides us
 a means to understand adverse or challenging conditions, and to rise above them and gain new knowledge and
perspective. The need to philosophize is driven by the love for wisdom. To love wisdom is to have an insatiable desire
for truth. Philosophy itself is a distinct area of knowledge with its own goals, concerns, and ways of doing things.
