Week 6 Questions/Answers
Why is Faqir Chand's experiences important in understanding the projective nature of religious visions and miracles?
After reading and watching the short films provided I came to conclude that Faqir Chand was even an unknowing man but was highly praised for not having all the answers or solutions to problems, what he did have however was Faith something that cannot be easily broken and must be cherished as much as your own being. Faqirs experiences were important in understanding the projective nature of eligious visions and miracles because after retuning to Baghdad after battle he was surprisingly put on a pedistel after the people on the battle field that were on the brink of death seen an appearance of Chand that told them what to do in this dyer time which they followed his instruction and were saved. Faqir goes along saying he has no knowledge of that and he himself being in battle within danger at the time. This then made him question who did they see before them? was it Faqir Chand? His faith was empowered and he came to a conclusion, He who remembers God in whatever form, in that very form he helped his devote. Faqir also speculated that is the true feelings, visions, and images that are seen within.
What is meant by the phrase, "philosophy done well is science; philosophy done poorly remains philosophy."
When first reading this question i found it to be fairly simple in what its asking and even ho you could answer it. providing reasoning and intellectuality was going to be the bubble to fill on this. but after reading and dissecting the videos it wasn't to excrusiating from there. In the film "The Infinite Shuffle" it gives you the fact that you cannot convey the outcome until the last "cad" is pulled with that last card being capable of changing the whole concept which can relate very closely to the great philosopher Socrates who said "no one should be considered happy until they are dead, you may be happy for most of you life, but until your last breath you can never be sure you had a happy life".
