THE PROBLEM OF MODERN MAN. by philoedu(m): 11:13am On Sep 27, 2018
[b][/b]The problem of modern man is the inability to rethink for a change of heart that must take place from inside-out for self - reorientation. It consists in a shift from the limited practical reason to what might be called the wholeness of reasons that include the intelligible with the experimentally verifiable and a balanced with his spiritual nature. This is not without the material aspect of life that must be balanced with the well being of man’s existence.

This is true, that with the advantage of technology man should no doubt, have being in greater advantage of the inherent freedom and dignity to enhance the future. Therefore, the first step in healing of the wounds and divisions in the society of our time is through the very healing of the wound and division within man himself because charity begins at home. And this is the very drama of existence of man that is affecting the whole lot of society as a result of man’s total disregard of the very sense and awareness of the transcendence and to say the least in what lies outside himself because God is wholly transcendent.

Because there is a complete lack of the sense of wholeness through which man is connected which is the very core of life. And in the replacement of the concept of material aspect as the only embracing basis for a better life which is but a distortion of the concept of life. But make no mistake, that such material aspect has to do with progress is absolutely undeniable. The same is true that, it is as a result of the misuse of this misunderstanding that is the root of the problem of modern man.
But he must solve or perish as a victim of his uncontrolled and dehumanized mental agility with the inability to balance the shift of this reality. Because, man must be able to distinguish between the vast possibilities and virtue of this inherent material and the fantasies attributed to it with the neglect of the basics of the spiritual aspect of life. Of course, the modern man has being endow the capacity to consistently strive to rediscover through his conscience that which is the light that connect him with the transcendence or Being.

It is often through such connection he can harmonize his life to contribute meaning fully to balance the spiritual and material well-being of mankind. This is true because, the knowledge of this reality is the very basis of freedom and morality. In the light of this modern discrepancies, unless there is a redefinition of community life and accept the code of ethic based not on science but on the very belief system of the sacredness of human life. It must be emphasized that the knowledge that basic to ethic is the knowledge of true love with substance of the very force that hold all mankind together irrespective of the ethnic background, class or creed.

The class or creed rooted in the I -and thou-relationship that extends to embrace the divinity. But we must not lose sight of this redefinition of the misunderstood concepts of the collective well-being of the community life. An effort must be gear towards the pursuance of the objective of the belief in the very principle and in defense of ethical standard and tradition with principle, otherwise, it might be difficult if not impossible to avoid being at the verge of unbearable point.

[b][/b]Because, all through the evolutionary journey of man, it self-evidence, of the apprehension of the true nature of man that concede that man’s basic desire is to be with God. The same is true that the spirit of man may flicker like amber in the wind, but it cannot be put off. And this should give us enough confidence in man’s evolutionary journey of existence for whatever his up and down.
