Snippets on Love, Truth, and Knowledge

 

Snippets on Love, Truth, Knowledge

 By Archie R. Magarao



    Love knows no bounds. Boundaries in love are but conventions. To love is to believe in it eternally that it will persist beyond death. It is in love that we realize that we live for others. Loving is revolutionary. To be passionate for it is to be ready to die for it as many did in the cross, war, and others.

    Truth is singular. It is gentle and kind. At times, we have to risk our lives to reveal the truth. From womb to tomb, we are meant to live with others.

    To love is to be tragic. But we must not stop believing it.

   Knowledge is a mirror. It tells us who we are and what we should become.

    All revolutionary acts for love and justice might be considered cynical and senseless that a drop of water can never be the ocean. However, the ocean is made up of drops of water.

    Our actions are controlled by phenomena. Our lives are connected past, present, future.

    Transcendence is what it takes to be passionate for love.

Panopticon: The Ever Watchful Eye By Archie R. Magarao                 Michel Foucault, a French social philosopher, is one of the key philosophers of the modern time. His critical philosophy is so wide-ranging that it includes psychology, sociology, jurisprudence, ethics, politics, philosophy, history, and natural sciences. No wonder why his thoughts are much talked about in the academe. In this very brief philosophical reflection on Foucault, allow me to introduce to you one of his key concepts namely the panopticon. Although the philosopher Jeremy Bentham generally coined the term, it was Foucault who took the matter seriously. Foucault argues that modern society is similar to penal colonies. What makes this resemblance possible is the existence of the ubiquitous and ever watchful faceless panopticon.                 The term p...
