Philosophy And Thinking

Our conception of philosophy is inspired by numerous “way of life” traditions and embraces the “heart and mind” aspects of philosophical thinking and living.  It is also in line with the definition provided by Martha Nussbaum who says: “Philosophy is not about authoritative pronouncements.  It is not about one person claiming to be deeper than others or making allegedly wise assertions.  It is about leading the examined life, with humility about how little we really understand, with a commitment to arguments that are rigorous, reciprocal, and sincere, and with a willingness to listen to others as equal participants and to respond to what they offer.”
