Philosophical Foundation of Education
A. Hinduism
– (Dharma), characterized by honesty courage, service, faith, self-control, purity, and non-violence
Dharma can be achieved through Yoga
Believes that one should be able to control and regulate his desires, not to devote life to sensual
pleasure success.
Religion should be practical.
God is truth and the best way to seek the truth is by practicing non-violence (Ahimsa)
B. Buddhism
Believes that personal gratification is the root of suffering in the world.
The teaching of Buddha centered on four noble truths:
1. All life is suffering, pain, and misery
2. Selfish craving and personal desire.
3. Suffering can cease.
4. Way to overcome this misery is through following the Eight Fold Paths
2. Chinese Philosophies
Confucianism,
- an essentially optimistic system of belief, argued that those who were naturally virtuous should,
while behaving with loyalty and respect, help to govern their country by maintaining their
independence and criticizing their rulers if necessary: The government served its citizens, rather
than the reverse.
Taoism,
- by contrast, taught that humans should withdraw from culture and society, devoting themselves to
meditation and, like water, adapt themselves to natural forces.
3. Japanese Philosophy
Zen Buddhism
- No savior/s paradise, faith on God, no scriptures.
-The third eye helps one to see things in addition to what our two eyes show us, and should be
attuned to the things around us.
Emphasizes silent meditation, aiming to awaken the mind in each person.
4. Muslim Philosophy
Islam
- Emphasized a total commitment in faith obedience, and trust to one and only God.
Koran, its sacred book is the word of God.
Each person will be tried on the judgment when Allah will judge all souls.
Believes in paradise, an oasis of flowing water, pleasant drinks, food and sensual delights.
Five Pillars of Islam:
– 1. Belief in one God
– 2. Prayer
– 3. Fasting
– 4. Alms giving
– 5. Pilgrimage to Mecca
5. Christian Philosophy
God is the Creator of all thing
Jesus is the Messiah, Christ, Son of God
Human being is a sinner who requires redemption
Jesus came down to earth to redeem mankind
Baptism is necessary for salvation
There is life after death
