Philosophy of the East and West

Philosophy means love of wisdom (philo-sophia) and is an active attitude of awareness towards life. In this sense we are all born philosophers with an innate need to ask questions and with the intuition that there are answers to be found.

Every civilization has passed on to us its experience and understanding of life. However most of us have had little opportunity to learn about the vast heritage of ideas that have inspired and guided humanity throughout history.

The practice of philosophy develops self-confidence moral strength and resilience to face the difficulties and crises of life. It allows us to become an actor of change in our lives and around us.

The 16-week course will introduce you to the major concepts of Eastern and Western Philosophy and explore their relevance and practical application for our lives.
