What is Life? The Philosophical Perspective: Amlesh Ranjan

Understanding life through philosophy means looking at more than just science and evidence.

From a philosophical standpoint, we can see life as a profound and meaningful existence that goes beyond mere physical processes.

Here are some philosophical perspectives on life:

CONSCIOUSNESS AND EXPERIENCE

Life involves the capacity for consciousness, self-awareness, and the ability to perceive and experience the world.

PURPOSE AND MEANING

Life is about finding purpose and meaning by fulfilling a unique role or contributing to the greater good..

FREE WILL AND AGENCY

Life encompasses the capacity to make choices, exercise free will, and take responsibility for one’s actions.

EXISTENSIALISM AND AUTHENTICITY

Life is about finding answers to questions about yourself and the world around you. These questions include who you are, why you're here, and how to be true to yourself..

We can say,

😇Philosophical perspective enables seeing the conscious life.

😇Philosophical perspective reveals our own self to ourselves.
