hello there it's me mom anna if you're just new to our channel then welcome if you have been subscribed welcome back we finished discussing about the meaning of philosophy and the importance of philosophizing and the branches of philosophy so if you haven't watched those videos i will just post the link on the description box below so now let's have a recap when we do philosophy we philosophize and doing philosophy means engaging oneself in wondering and seeking answers to our questions and even evaluating our arguments in order to arrive at truth the first most essential learning competency in the introduction to the philosophy of the human person is to distinguish holistic perspective to partial point of view in explaining this i will give you an example since children had a fight and the younger son cried here are the two possible responses response a is that sia scolded the older brother without hearing his side of story response b is that sia listen to both her children's stories before making a conclusion which you think is a more desirable response if we're going to associate it to our lesson response a is an example of partial point of view partial point of view focuses on the specific aspects of the problem so in here the individual just focuses the attention on the on the specific area or aspects of the problem in order to understand it it's like when you are viewing this you're just looking at the dot then if your answer is response b then we are talking about the holistic perspective holistic perspective refers to a view that considers a large scale patterns in a system it's like you are looking at a big picture so it's like in this image you're not just looking at the dot but you're looking at the whole image at the whole picture so in order to understand it better let's scrutinize the two perspectives impartial point of view or thinking it looks at only limited number of aspects of the given problem or situation and the conclusions are made based on considering some but not all sides of the problem or situation in holistic perspective or thinking it looks at it looks at all aspects of the given problem or situation all aspects are given importance when making conclusions and are tied together to form a general overview of the problem or situation so it's like when a doctor diagnoses his patient's illness he will just ask the patient about his physical symptoms and will prescribe an appropriate medicine onto it but when he uses holistic perspective he will not only depend on the physical symptoms that the patient is experiencing but will also try to dig deeper into the lifestyle or the background of the patient and that's a time that he can conclude and prescribe the appropriate medicine or advice onto what on how to treat his illness between the two which do you think is being used in philosophy then if your answer is holistic perspective then you are correct in the process of doing philosophy it is very important to understand the holistic perspective that is looking at all sides of the problem before making a conclusion now i want to think of this situation how do you usually react when somebody has gone viral because of some scandalous acts do you condemn them or you usually reserve your judgment until you get all the facts if you were to use holistic perspective which of the two will be your reaction remember a holistic perspective does not only encourages us to be critical but also to be more considerate in dealing with others i want you to reflect and answer the following questions that huh so first having used holistic perspective in looking at the problem or situation if yes did it have a positive result number two how can having a holistic view help us become better individuals so here's some words to ponder when you change the way you look at things the things you look at change according to wayne dyer so so that's it i hope you have learned something from the simple lesson in holistic perspective and partial point of view please like and subscribe to our channel and hit the notification bell so that you'll be updated to my videos and my husband's instructional videos stay safe everyone god bless see you again on my next one bye you
