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
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.
How are the various aspects of a particular thing divided? The division of an object into parts is based on spatial relations, and the division of an event into stages is based on temporal relations. The division of a thing into several aspects is neither based in terms of spatial relations nor temporal relations, but in terms of differences of feeling. For example, we see colors in all kind of objects because of the perception of color. Color is inseparable from the object, you cannot scrape color off a block of wood. You say I can use a scraper to scrape the color off the surface, but there is still color inside, you cannot separate the weight and volume from the color of the block. But in our minds, we can separate the perception of color from the perception of the weight and volume of the block. Then put the color of this wooden block together with the color of other objects for research and analysis. For example, this wooden block is brown, and so is the bookcase in my home. The brown color of all things is the same concept and aspect.
The extension of philosophical research is not only reflected in the study of the whole universe, but also reflected in the study of all aspects of the various dimensions, covering all disciplines. The Origin in philosophy is not only the origin of the universe, but also the generality and source of all aspects. This is where philosophy differs from cosmology and astronomy. You can say the universe came from a Big Bang, but these properties didn't come from the Big Bang. So the beginning of the universe is not the Origin in philosophy.
