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

    6) Most advanced. Philosophers believe that philosophy can find the source of creation of the universe, such as water, fire, atoms, existence, Tao, etc. But then it turned out that none of these things could create the universe. Philosophy cannot create theories of other disciplines, either, it can only create a world of ideas that seems to exist and also seems not to exist. Philosophy could not provide a basis for other disciplines, Jiaying Chen said, “Modern science rather grew up in the continuous efforts to get rid of and oppose metaphysical principles.”[5] For the very beginning, philosophy wants to provide a holistic worldview. However, it has proved that a reasonable worldview can only be found after specific analysis and accumulation of enough specific theories.

    7) Most rational. It seems that philosophy can see everything and every method clearly. It is impossible. Philosophy cannot even be a guide to science. At most philosophy can give science some inspiration, which is not to every subject. Philosophy is not the most rational, science is more rational. Philosophy often lead to non-rational.

    8) Most capable. Philosophy seems to be the solution to all problems, the ultimate solution to practice. It seems that philosophy can make you devise strategies within the command tent and gain a decisive victory a thousand miles away. It is impossible. Philosophy is an abstract theory with little concern for practical problems.

    9) Most complete. Philosophy seems to be able to establish a unified theory, encompassing all disciplines, but all such efforts have failed. It seems that all disciplines came from philosophy, which is the mother of science, but it is not. Although some disciplines came from philosophy, they were eventually separated. They were originally subordinate to philosophy because they had no proper conception of the division of disciplines.

    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."
