The subject of “Western Philosophy” (Part Twenty Three) Quotes of “G. W. F. Hegel”

“Spying on politics”
“Chatchawan Chatsutthichai”

“Hegel” thought influenced “Karl Marx” who created the famous “Communism”!

That makes “Thai people” and “people of the world” have to pay attention because of the political system. “Communists” are the direct enemies of the political system. “Free Capitalism”

At present, politics is divided into “two sides”, fighting each other seriously. The “liberal capitalism” side has “America” ​​and “Western European nations”! The “Communist” side has “China” and “Russia” and the “Party Nations”!

The content of the ongoing “struggle” between these “two camps” will be discussed and exchanged with readers next time. This article would like to bring “Hegel’s quote” for you to think about and debate..

“I am not an ugly person. But my beauty It truly comes from (God’s) creation.”

Well! Whether Hegel is “handsome” or “ugly” is not the main problem. The importance lies in the ability of his “brain” as an “excellent philosopher” because “Hegel’s principles” are widely accepted by “philosophers” and “people of the world”..

“Hegel” views respect as “If you have too much respect, would be too godly to love.”

The words here are interesting to interpret because “some people are narcissistic” to the point of thinking that “He is the God of righteousness in all matters”? Until you forget that “you are a human being”, whether you are a “millionaire” or a “prime minister” you can all “do right and do wrong”!

“The lesson learned from experience and history is that Both the people and the government Never learn anything from history. or even acting according to principles seen in history.”

Hegel’s perplexing and thought-provoking words and interpretations should open the stage for discussion. Even though it’s not easy to find a solution, it’s a pity! who did not have the opportunity to talk and inquire with “Hegel” to gain clear understanding..

“No greatness in the world can be achieved. Without the power of emotions

“There is only one person who can understand me. But then he didn’t understand me.” Um..who is that one person? that “Hegel” even thought about “understanding” him and “not understanding” him, and “Hegel” did not say that What does that person not understand about him?

“When considering history…the only idea that philosophy teaches us is that Thinking of simple reason

That is.. Reason is the Sovereign of the world. Reason is the history of the world. Reason therefore leads us to a reasonable process.”

Hmm..The above assertion of “Hegel” is something that many world-class philosophers have come to believe. They all saw the same thing as if “Make an appointment in advance”!

And that’s what “All powerful people in the world” must make it evident to “the world” the “reasons of right” in order to create “justice” which will bring “peace” to the world..

“Spirit is existence in control of itself, and of course this is freedom. Because if my existence depends on something else I am not what I am. I cannot remain dependent on external things forever. On the contrary, I am free when my life depends only on myself.”

Really agree! that “Hegel” emphasizes the matter of “Life must be self-reliant” rather than being lost in “Rely on the outside”!

The words of “Hegel” are something that “people of the world” all “know” and “hold” from the past until the present. and must continue to follow this concept in the future for sure Just.. “The world today until tomorrow” will have “higher and higher inequality” between “rich people” who are a minority in the world and “people with low incomes” with “poor people” having fewer opportunities. continuously to have a better quality of life

The “cause of the world inequality problem” that “all human beings” are currently facing is very serious.. But “Hegel” didn’t get to meet him because he had “goodbye” a long time ago!

“The history of the world is nothing else. In addition to the advancement of consciousness towards freedom The aim of the spiritual world, and the world in general, is the freedom that we believe resides in the consciousness of the soul. This goal is God’s purpose for the world. But in that God is the absolute being. Therefore unable to do anything else. except for oneself”

For “Hegel”, no different from most famous “philosophers”, he always firmly relied on “God” as the main principle in explaining important “philosophical principles” even afterward. “World-class philosophers” have researched ideas on the principles of “sociology” and the principles of “science” and “cosmology,” etc., which are related to beliefs in the past that “science” has not progressed as well as today, until finally, the matter of The belief that the “Earth is flat” has disappeared, with the belief that the “Earth is round” taking its place!..

Ouch! Including many other “stories” that were mysterious in the past, but “science” has continuously revealed more “truths” for the “world” to know. Even though there are still many “stories” of the world and the universe, waiting for the day when “scientists” and “tools” are more developed to reveal “secrets” in the future!

“All worthwhile things and spiritual realities that man possesses are Man has possession of that only through the state..because truth is the unity of the universe. and power that varies from person to person The universe is something that can be found in the state. in state law in a reasonable and universal agreement

The state is considered a sacred idea. Because it exists in the world A state is one in which we can see the objects of history in a clearer state than the past. And in the state as well, there is what is called neutral freedom But the law is the neutrality of the soul.”

“Hegel” continued, “Like all individuals. The state exists in the same way as the individual.. that is, for your own happiness and be satisfied with what you want to be.. Abandon your aspirations and have activities without opponents And this is what brings death to it.. Rotten individualism and a rotten state By natural death.”

“Hegel” further said..

“The importance of the highest commandment (Whether looking at it from the perspective of history or look at the commandments themselves) It is not about promoting only knowledge about oneself in one’s abilities, personality, and inclinations. or small flaws of each person

One’s knowledge is one’s true reality. It is the true truth of the soul that cannot be absent.” Oh!..”Hegel” continued to speak long words.. He also continued saying..

“If you look at history on the surface, We will ensure that human actions Driven by necessity, desire, habit, and intellect. and make us impressed and believe that it is necessary Such a desire and human benefits It’s only one reason. that causes humans to act in various ways”

Hegel’s explanation of reasoning is really thought-provoking and discussion-inducing because “it is easy to find weaknesses in people or in states. rather than seeing the true value and importance of that person or state.”
“Hegel” continued to look at the good and said..
“Goodness alone can achieve little in comparison with nature.”
They also looked further and said.. “The courage of truth is the first condition of studying philosophy.”
Hmm.. These two sentences from “Hegel” are definitely correct!.. Without “courage”, anything you study is worthless.. It may even be worthless. “Being human” even..is that true?

Finally.. a philosopher like “Hegel” summed it up nicely: “After all, Both the master and the slave No one has freedom” because “masters” are all “slaves of interest”!

As for the “slaves”, they all became “slaves of freedom”!

The story of the philosopher “G. W. F. Hegel” ends thus…
