Q: Why should we pursue the study of philosophy?

Before all else, try to think where we would be today if none of us quested for wisdom?

If no one had the courage to question anything that they were told.

Where would we be? Definitely, not where we are today. We, humans, it is important to

us understand our world, our purpose and ourselves. By studying philosophy, it will take you to a

deeper understanding about the meaning of life and the world in which they live in, and their

relationship to the world and to each other.

Q: What could be the greatest significance of studying philosophy to a student like you?

From my perspective, philosophy teaches us to think logically, learn how to ask good

questions, and to determine whether the questions are either worthwhile or not. The study of

philosophy benefits us intellectually, spiritually and morally. I truly believe, philosophy taught

us how to think independently and how we are going to expand our perspective in life. Indeed, if

a student have them the philosophical view, it leads them to how they see the world around them

and the society that they live in.
