Aristotle
Aristotle (384- 322 BCE) was an ancient Greek philosopher, scientist, and thinker who
made significant contributions to a wide range of disciplines, including philosophy,
natural sciences, ethics, politics, and more. He was one of the most influential
philosophers in the history of Western thought and is often regarded as one of the greatest
philosophers of all time.
According to Aristotle, the purpose and ultimate goal in life is to achieve eudaimonia
(`pure happiness`). He believed thay eudaimonia was not simply virtue, nor pleasure, but
rather it was the exercise of virtue.

Rene Descartes is known to be the “Father of modern Philosophy” and one of the most
famous dualistic thinkers of all time ( Rozemond, 1998).
Dualism is the concept that reality or existence is divided into two parts: the mind is
somehow separate from the physical attributes of the body.
The body is nothing but a part attached to the mind , while the mind is part of the unseen
creation. Literally speaking , if a human skull is opened – up, one can use his senses to
find out something about the human brain, but can never find anything about the mind.
Descartes asserted that one cannot rely on his senses because they are sometimes
misleading.
He argued that the only thing that cannot be doubted is the existence of the self, as man
himself was the one doing the doubting in the first place.
John Locke
I dentity has been defined in so many ways but for philosophers, identity means being
one thing and not another. It is what makes you “you” and “me”.
John Locke believed that our identity is tied with our consciousness, which to him, is the
perception of what passes in a man`s own mind (Anstey, 2011). In other words , it
comprises our memories.
