ABSTRACT This paper will give an accurate definition and the most fundamental characteristics of philosophy, and analysis of people's past misunderstanding of philosophy. The definition of philosophy is the most abstract rational idea or theory. The characteristic of philosophy can be summed up in three words: fake, large, and empty. The building on the drawing is a fake one. The better the fake products are made, the better the real building will be. Matter is true, consciousness is fake. Compared with scientific concepts, philosophical concepts and theories have larger extension, even covering the whole universe and all aspects of things. Philosophy is the most abstract theory, so the concepts of philosophy have the emptiest connotation. The reason why the specific natural and social sciences need the support of philosophy is precisely because philosophy has this kind of characteristics of fake, large and empty. The philosophers study all problems in the hope of finding the root cause of all problems, that is, the Origin. Later, it is found that it is impossible to solve all problems in one way. To solve problems, we can only analyze them on a case-by-case basis. Philosophers are too wise to be wise. In the eyes of ancient Greek philosophers, philosophy should be the most holy, most supreme, most virtuous, wisest, most advanced, most rational, most capable, most complete and most refined knowledge. But the it is proved that this kind of philosophy does not exist at all. But the characteristic of philosophy of being the largest is not an illusion. The division of something into several aspects is neither in terms of spatial relations nor temporal relations, but in terms of different feelings. The large extension of philosophical research is not only reflected in the study of the space and time of whole universe, but also reflected in the study of all aspects of the various dimensions, covering all disciplines. The fourth manifestation of the largeness of philosophy is the depth of microscopic exploration. The fifth is the attention to the complexity and order of the system. The sixth is the understanding of consciousness. The seventh and the most important manifestation is to look at oneself. Philosophy offers the most rational view of the world.
Key Words: Philosophy; Ontology; Abstract; Extension; Consciousness; Rational

    10) Most refined. Philosophy seems to be very rigorous and profound. As a matter of fact, philosophy is not rigorous at all. It is far worse than science. In philosophical treatises, concepts are used incoherently. Many words are speciosity, some are even like "language from universe", leaving readers in a fog. Some college students majoring in philosophy say, "Whoever speaks incomprehensible is a great philosopher."

There are many abstract theories in every science, but theories are not useful if they are too abstract. Now philosophy has become the head of all studies with no use. So that people ask, " What on earth is philosophy for?" Dongyue Wang said, "The only meaning of philosophy is to make you know what meaningless is."[6]


5.SEVEN MANIFESTATIONS OF THE LARGENESS OF PHILOSOPHY

    I have just said that philosophy is disillusioned. It was supposed to be the most holy, most supreme, most virtuous, most wise, most advanced, most rational, most capable, most complete and most refined knowledge. These are all illusions. But the largeness of philosophy is not illusion. Although philosophy cannot cover all subjects, the field of its study is the largest.

    Jiaying Chen said, "There are so many specialized knowledge and theorems in any field of learning, and this determines that there will be no universal common understanding by analyse mentally."[7] Chen’s conclusion is too arbitrary. We often say that it remains essentially the same despite all apparent changes. No matter how many knowledge and theorems there are, we can certainly build some general conclusions. To say the least, even if there really is too much knowledge for us to get their truly universal meaning, we need to manage to do the difficult job and draw some general conclusions. Because human beings need such universal conclusions. Human beings need a holistic world view, and a rational belief based on the holistic world view. So whether the philosopher is willing or able to accomplish such a task, everyone requires that the philosopher must engage in such a task.

    Philosophy must always be at the top of the pyramid of knowledge. This is not because philosophy itself is awesome, but because everyone needs it. Therefore, philosophy has always been promoted by people, including the best people in all fields, and philosophy has always been respected as the first among all kinds of learning, whether it is useful or not.

    As I said, philosophy is characterized by fake, large and empty. Its concepts and theories extend to the whole universe and to every aspect of things. Universe means the whole space and the whole time. But the largeness of philosophy lies not only in the whole space and whole time, but also in all aspects of things.

    The so-called aspect refers to the various properties of things. For example, a cube block has not only six sides, but also many properties such as color, hardness, electrical conductivity, magnetic conductivity, specific gravity, chemical composition and so on. Each attribute belongs to an aspect, or dimension, that is studied by different disciplines. This small block of wood is not big in size, but there are many aspects of the content. Anything concrete is infinitely complex.
