The word “philosophy” is derived from the greek words “Philein” meaning to love and “Sophia” meaning wisdom. Hence the true philosopher is a lover of wisdom. A complete philosophy includes a world-view, or reasoned conception of the whole cosmos and a life-view, or doctrine of the values, meanings and purposes of human life. The aim of philosophy is to discover the full meaning and relations of truth, Beauty and Goodness and to determine their places in the universe of reality. Philosophy is an attempt to interpret reflectively human life in all its relations. The philosopher aims to “see life steadily and to see it whole” Plato says “the unexamined life is not a truly human life.” Philosophy is rational reflection upon experience, belief, and conduct. It is closely related to science, conduct and religion.
