yale open course-philosophy

DEATH.

====



ok..listen to the lecture to this point..i start to believe philosophy (western) arguments don't make much sense, but very sensible, valuable.

rather than leading a way to a thought, it is more like to give you as much as possible confusion, complication, but at the same time, it tells you a way of systematically logically thinking, then you learn how to question, to think, to draw your own conclusion, to however further ends that you can possibly reach in your own intelligence...

is that good? good, and not necessarily be good.
i should learn to write nn essay.

what's live..do we survive death..duelist (body and soul)..how to define live..and death..

the person just is the soul

as long as the soul exists, i exists.

are soul and body distinct?

does the soul survive of the destruction of body?

no grantee that the soul survive after the body.

maybe s1 to sn results the destruction of my soul

does the soul die after our death? does it survive forever? am i immortal?

the immortality of the soul.

dualism

is body 1 to body n,..the process of destruction of body...somehow causes the destruction of soul1 to soul n, the process of death of soul?

where the soul located?

we are where our bodies are , might be an illusion.
