Philosophical awareness
Description:
Being philosophically aware implies attention on questions and problems arising from the "fact" of existence and of attempting to establish relationships between particular manifestations of life implicit in questions such as: What is a living being ? What is the meaning of life ? Who am I ? Who are you ? What is knowledge ? Such questions are bedevilled by the limitations of language itself. Despite the seemingly insurmountable problems to enunciate answers, which, for example, resulted in Wittgenstein's "Philosophical Investigations" completely contradicting his previous work "Tractacus Logico-Philosophicus", perseverance is said to be rewarded (I Ching).
