Depends on the subject. Sometimes you need exact quotes and formulation (like mathematics) that would take too much time of the lecture. In this case it is easier to present it on a powerpoint. But then more elaborate examples and such will be taken on the board.
@@ErkaaJ Math and logic are best demonstrated as a performance, though I have found that power point is excellent for extended quotes and the reconstruction of arguments.
$3-4,000 a class is not an exaggeration. I am a university student, I see the prices everyday. Textbooks for a class like this can easily be $300-400, and often times they force you to buy a particular edition that you couldn’t otherwise find online
I have found many people (college students and non students) take notes on TH-cam videos and lectures such as this. It’s all self knowledge. A degree doesn’t necessarily mean you learned anything, it means you passed the tests and got the points, which now a days is very easy to cheat
its amazing seeing people in their professions like this guy with philosophy and seeing them be so passionate it makes things so much more interesting especially when they teach it in fun ways

I got bored in self isolation and I loved every second. My personal insight is : If the world is a mental construct that means we have control over our reality.
Only if the world is our own mental construct. If it was the mental construct of some all powerful being ie God, we would still not have control over the nature of reality.
Also, another way of thinking about it would be: if the world was our own mental construct then we would be able to control reality. We can not control reality. Therefore the world is not a mental construct.

🐟 02. A BRIEF EXPLANATION FOR “LIFE”: Everything, both perceptible and imperceptible - that is, any gross or subtle object within the material universe which can ever be perceived with the senses, plus the subject (the observer of all phenomena) - is what most persons actually refer to when they use the term “GOD”. REAL God is Impersonal Absolute Nothingness (otherwise called “The Tao”, “The Great Spirit”, “Brahman”, “Pure Consciousness”, “Eternal Awareness”, “Independent Existence”, “The Ground of All Being”, “The Undifferentiated Substratum of Reality”, “The Unified Field”, et cetera). “God” is One Reality, but just as a knife cannot cut itself, or fire cannot burn itself, “God” cannot know Himself (or at least EXPERIENCE Himself), and so, has manifested this phenomenal universe within Himself. Therefore, this world of duality is really just a play of consciousness within Consciousness. N. B. The word “God” is, by definition, a title of the male Deity, and is not to be taken literally here. Apparently, this phenomenal universe was “created” (within Consciousness) with the initial act (the so-called “Big Bang”), and from that first deed, every action that has ever occurred has been a direct or indirect result of it. Just as every particle of matter in the universe was once contained in the ’singularity’, Infinite Consciousness was NECESSARILY present at the Big Bang, and is in no way an epiphenomenon of a neural network. “Sarvam khalvidam brahma” (‘all this is indeed Brahman’). There is NAUGHT but Eternal Being, Conscious Awareness, Causeless Peace - and you are that! Everything which can be presently perceived, both tangible and immaterial, including we human beings, is a consequence of that initial manifestation. That is the most accurate and logical explanation for “karma” - everything was preordained from the initial spark, and every action since has unfolded as it was predestined in ETERNITY. The notion of retributive (“tit for tat”) karma is just that - an unverified notion. Whatever state in which we currently find ourselves, is the result of two factors - our genetic make-up at conception and our present-life conditioning (which may include mutating genetic code). Every choice ever made by every human (and non-human animal) was determined by those two factors ALONE, thus free-will is purely illusory, despite what most believe. Because we are temporarily residing within this dualistic universe, we experience both pleasure and pain. Suffering and pain are NOT synonymous. Suffering is due to a false sense of personal doership - the belief that one is a separate, independent author of one’s thoughts and deeds. There are five MANIFESTATIONS of suffering: 1. Guilt 2. Blame 3. Pride 4. Anxiety 5. Regrets about the past and expectations for the future These types of suffering are the result of not properly understanding what was explained above - that life is a series of happenings and NOT caused by the individual living beings. No living creature, including us humans, has personal free-will. There is only the Universal, Divine Will at play, acting through every body, to which William Shakespeare famously alluded when he scribed “All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players.” The human organism is simply a biological machine, comprised of the five gross material elements and the three subtle material elements. So, now that you understand life, and the reason why we are suffering here in this (supposedly) material universe, you are now able to be liberated from all forms of suffering, RIGHT? WRONG! It is imperative to find an authentic spiritual master to assist you to come to the above realization, by slowly undoing your past conditioning. Just as you have been conditioned over an entire lifetime to think one way, you need to be re-conditioned to think another. Even if you follow a competent teacher, you may still not come to a full understanding of life, but if you are sincere, humble and dedicated, you will definitely find more peace in your daily life (all of which was DESTINED to occur, of course). Furthermore, if it was ordained, you may be fortunate enough to accept discipline from a truly enlightened master, and subsequently realize the aforementioned fundamental concepts, by practicing at least one of the four systems of yoga (religion) described in the Holy Scripture, “A Final Instruction Sheet for Humanity”.

WHAT A KNOWLEDGEABLE LECTURER AND WONDERFUL CONTENT FROM SOCRATES,PLATO, ARISTOTLE TO AL GHAZALI,AVICENNA, AVERROIS TILL NOW PHILOSOPHY IS LEARNING OF HOW UNIVERSAL PROPERTIES+CONCEPT MAKE OBJECT,LOGIC,REASON AND THOUGHTS
There is a section in the Twilight of the Idols "How the 'Real World' at last Became a Myth" History of an error. In this short section Nietzsche describes this process of the mutation of this platonic idea. At the end of the day, though, Nietzsche's conclusion was that looking at the world through definitions is a wrong way to do that. 'Only that which has no history can be defined'. Thank you Sir for this lecture and all the videos on your channel. I have used this material not only to learn about philosophy but also to learn English. Many thanks.
Very nice to see the upload! As well, excellent work on the recording layout. Appreciating too that you have to work with the classroom and many were designed without uploading in mind! Keep up the excellent work professor!!!
Professor Bonevac, you are one of the most engaging, coherent and educative people one can find. The only thing - sound. This video too to an extent but specifically with the Fall 2016 videos which are the most informative and easy to digest lectures on philosophy you can dream to find. Especially when you are not facing the cam and you are at some distance from it you are really barely intelligible and for someone who is not a native like me (despite my level steadily approaching nativeness) and doesn't naturally fill in all the blanks that can't be heard it is hard to go through the videos. Please either edit out the ambient noise and bump up midtones or consider using a microphone, a pilot/telemarketer one, not a classic TV reporter stick with a ball.
@@Zumastraphy Hrithik Ravi deleted his comment, but he is the one who said moron, not me. I tried to explain it to him. I told him that he does not need to say moron.
A reading list for the lectures would be nice. I've been looking for a detailed lecture series on the analytic tradition so thanks a lot for uploading!
Such a great lecturer. I can't recall very many lecturers teaching with this sort of engagement with the class. A real asset to UT, to philosophy and to students. I wish he'd teach a course in LOGIC!
@Language and Programming Channel Lol! So someone with the title 'Language and Programming Channel' has just called arguably the greatest philosopher of the 20th century, a tool.
I wish i could have a chance to attend this wonderful class. But thanks to TH-cam. Because at some point i really imagine myself sitting there. And in my thoughts, philosophy is knowledge. it is wisdom.
When this gentleman was in elementary school music class as a pupil and they handed him the triangle to play it may have sounded like a certain John cage piece of music ,however it may have gone on far longer than 4:33. Excellent lecture really enjoyed it, best regards from the UK
I'm glad this lecture series is free. Learning the fundamentals of the analytic tradition is the modern day equivalent to studying the forms and Plato as a pre-requisite to entering the philosophical dialogue.
A very stimulating and thought provoking yet still accessible lecture. Thank you for posting this, I will have to replay a few times to truly grasp all the concepts.
I found the whole 48 minute lecture very intriguing. I heard every word. Everyone has their own perspective on reality because of their upbringing. E.g. the people they talk to, the place they live in, how they were raised, etc,etc. The things you mentioned like about God, religion, law, those are just different types of realities that we accept and perceive differently. Very thought provoking, very enlightening to who we are and very interesting indeed. Thanks for the lecture.
Bertrand Russell put one thing out nicely. Philosophy is the third wonder, after religion and science. Thanks so much for these classes for public access. made free.
A good story is an excellent way out of the problem. It offers much more to chew on than concepts that are too precise and therefore disconnected from actual life.
Something that has occurred to me is that the "psycho-sociological-economic" dynamic of the classroom teaching "form"-itself-sheds light on this philosophical concern with the understanding of forms. If the class was instead a gardening class, and the goal to grow a garden, the "meaning" of the forms would necessarily be taken for granted in order to effectively accomplish the planting of the garden. By observing the philosophy class, and then the gardening class, and then contrasting the "thought exchange" in the philosophy class with the "action exchange" taking place in the gardening class, we may, here, find our answer to the question of the truth about forms. Not in the contemplation of ideas, but in their planting,
This was awesome. I wish it could have been longer haha. That's the thing about good philosophy it really gets good about an hour or so into it and then its out of time lol. Def going to watch more videos. I could have listened for another 3 hours easily :)
According to Plato ( c.428 - c.348bc ), when we are born we fly over the back of heaven and see all these perfect forms, such as a perfect chair and a perfect bed etc, but when we are born we lose this vision, but the one perfect form in heaven as on Earth is love, which gives an inkling of perfect forms in heaven. Unlike materialistic objects which are perceived with the senses forms such as goodness and honesty etc are understood only by reasoning which is why philosophy is so important.
Fascinating. The Counterfeit Problem parallels the function I used for my Irrationality Principle: that for every True statement that can be made, there are an infinite number of possible True statements whose Truth values conflict with or otherwise contradict the established axioms inherent within any perceived Truth. Where Logic is a function determined by the Emotional content of an argument multiplied by a factor of perceived Authority, absolutely anything can be believed, and it is necessarily impossible to confirm any particular Truths as objective relative to any other consistent set of Truths. My go to example is the split between Relativity and Quantum Mechanics, with Relativity inherently implying its own inability to explain certain functions of Quantum Mechanics. Both are highly accurate and valuable Truths, yet their mutual existence contradict each other.
Philosophy is NOT a single subject. Philosophy is a means of, or approach to a particular topic or subject that incorporates or involves the asking and attempting to answer certain questions, just as science is a method of study in order to (both quantitatively and qualitatively) ask and answer certain questions.
Pretty good for a free lecture xD. I wish more people would watch this, most people just give me blank stares or incredibly poor responses whenever I bring up epistemology (the thought -> world mapping question, Hume, etc.). The most common problem today is people both assuming and denying the entire concept of reality simultaneously under the so-called "social construct" model. A little bit of thought and education would do these types a great favor.
This was great. Kind of reminds me of the idea that I can never know what your perception of blue is. We can agree on the colour of all blue objects being blue, and we can agree that the light that reflects into our eyes transmits the same information to our brains, but if was to see through your mind's eye perhaps your brain interprets the information of all colours to be the inverse of how my brain interprets them. Or maybe even your conception of what colour means is so radically different from mine that I wouldn't even recognise what you were thinking. But it's irrelevant because I will never see through your mind's eye, and we have calibrated our thoughts with language such that all our ideas align to avoid confusion even if what we are thinking is different. If anyone knows of any philosophers that touch on that sort of point specifically I'd love to know. I was agreeing with Kant's mind independent lumina as well until Hegel had to come along and ruin it all >:(
Philosophy is an intuition about reality ever-formulating itself in thought sculptures. In the senses of a real intuition, reality as an intuition, and an intuition of reality.
good overview of the concepts thank you. It didn't look like they solved the problem of form, they just described it in different ways or dismissed one element over emphasis on another element, which still doesn't solve the problem. I hope there is a continuance to the next attempts. It gave me the idea of nature vs nurture what Plato said. I would have used the example of animals about how they are born with instinctive knowledge, where the food is, mating rituals, other things seem not learned but instinctive. We're animals so we must have some instincts we were born with. I was thinking that our brains have the ability to understand concepts, to see patterns, to learn language constructs. I could see where philosophy broke away from theology ans physics in this lecture as well. The last point scrubs out physics and just keeps philosophy in the realm of thought experiments and perceptions of the real world and how to acurately describe the world in a way we can all agree on.
Nothing like a free education.

Very nice to see the upload! As well, excellent work on the recording layout. Appreciating too that you have to work with the classroom and many were designed without uploading in mind! Keep up the excellent work professor!!!
Professor Bonevac, you are one of the most engaging, coherent and educative people one can find. The only thing - sound. This video too to an extent but specifically with the Fall 2016 videos which are the most informative and easy to digest lectures on philosophy you can dream to find. Especially when you are not facing the cam and you are at some distance from it you are really barely intelligible and for someone who is not a native like me (despite my level steadily approaching nativeness) and doesn't naturally fill in all the blanks that can't be heard it is hard to go through the videos.
Please either edit out the ambient noise and bump up midtones or consider using a microphone, a pilot/telemarketer one, not a classic TV reporter stick with a ball.
Loved your style of teaching.... Felt as if I am sitting in a classroom
@Hrithik Ravi He felt as if he is "sitting in" a classroom. No need to say moron.
@@keishaleitogores3344 you’re a sad human
@@Zumastraphy What did I do?
@@Zumastraphy Hrithik Ravi deleted his comment, but he is the one who said moron, not me. I tried to explain it to him. I told him that he does not need to say moron.
Finally some lectures on the analytic tradition!
I like that this dudes passionate 👍
there should be more passionate teachers^^
Not too "passionate"
@@RicStaR2410 hahaha
He tries simplicity,
but gets confusion
A reading list for the lectures would be nice. I've been looking for a detailed lecture series on the analytic tradition so thanks a lot for uploading!
Such a great lecturer. I can't recall very many lecturers teaching with this sort of engagement with the class. A real asset to UT, to philosophy and to students. I wish he'd teach a course in LOGIC!
this channel is wonderful to listen while working! Thanks for sharing.
0:20 "Philosophy is a battle against the bewitchment of our intelligence by means of language."
Ludwig Wittgenstein ( 1889 - 1951 )
Loved it
Ie battle against deception
I think Seneca thought the same right?

I honestly don't know LilBucketZ.
@Language and Programming Channel
Lol! So someone with the title 'Language and Programming Channel' has just called arguably the greatest philosopher of the 20th century, a tool.
His laughter is filled with that dear delight.
An actually substantive lecture on philosophy, by someone who obviously knows the material well.
well it was nice to see this.u r a great teacher sir.we all need ur support and ur guide for our future
i like this format. we can see the screen and you. Nice video sir.
Take
Fakme
I'm getting the understanding of it now, you explaining really well, and thank you
This is the type of teatchers the world needs!
Teachers* you shouldn’t be watching college lessons if you can’t spell words that you learn in kindergarten
HowToVideos- Tech 🥱
Yout holiness.
I wish i could have a chance to attend this wonderful class. But thanks to TH-cam. Because at some point i really imagine myself sitting there. And in my thoughts, philosophy is knowledge. it is wisdom.
What a gift this video is.
I watch your lectures for entertainment, as well as education, wonderful.
When this gentleman was in elementary school music class as a pupil and they handed him the triangle
to play it may have sounded like a certain John cage piece of music ,however it may have gone on far longer than 4:33.
Excellent lecture really enjoyed it, best regards from the UK
I've been exploring similar ideas in my recent videos. It's always inspiring to find others who are just as passionate.
He is enjoying so freaking much that I am also enjoying watching him
I watched this video on LSD and I now Understand what life is .. god bless
I'm glad this lecture series is free. Learning the fundamentals of the analytic tradition is the modern day equivalent to studying the forms and Plato as a pre-requisite to entering the philosophical dialogue.
A very stimulating and thought provoking yet still accessible lecture. Thank you for posting this, I will have to replay a few times to truly grasp all the concepts.
I'm on my break at work....love it
Great lecture, I learned because it was so interesting. Daniel you are enthusiastic, thank you.
I found the whole 48 minute lecture very intriguing. I heard every word. Everyone has their own perspective on reality because of their upbringing. E.g. the people they talk to, the place they live in, how they were raised, etc,etc. The things you mentioned like about God, religion, law, those are just different types of realities that we accept and perceive differently. Very thought provoking, very enlightening to who we are and very interesting indeed. Thanks for the lecture.
Bertrand Russell put one thing out nicely. Philosophy is the third wonder, after religion and science. Thanks so much for these classes for public access. made free.
This video changed my mind about philosophy.
Thank you so much for this generous resource.
You, sir, are a blessing.
Whoa!! Incredible work, sir.
I want to take a teaching profession after seeing you sir.
The world would be a much better place if education like this didn’t lead to a 20-year debt.
Amazing, man
Thank you for this fantastic series, you are a great lecturer.
according to berkeley ideas are
1 concrete
2 abstract
3 both
Love the energy from this guy.
A good story is an excellent way out of the problem. It offers much more to chew on than concepts that are too precise and therefore disconnected from actual life.
Fantastic lecture. Thank You!
This is amazing, thank you very much sir!
Something that has occurred to me is that the "psycho-sociological-economic" dynamic of the classroom teaching "form"-itself-sheds light on this philosophical concern with the understanding of forms. If the class was instead a gardening class, and the goal to grow a garden, the "meaning" of the forms would necessarily be taken for granted in order to effectively accomplish the planting of the garden. By observing the philosophy class, and then the gardening class, and then contrasting the "thought exchange" in the philosophy class with the "action exchange" taking place in the gardening class, we may, here, find our answer to the question of the truth about forms. Not in the contemplation of ideas, but in their planting,
This was really impressive ❤
Thank you! 1st day: SUBSCRIBED!!
This was awesome. I wish it could have been longer haha. That's the thing about good philosophy it really gets good about an hour or so into it and then its out of time lol. Def going to watch more videos. I could have listened for another 3 hours easily :)
wooahh, i think ive learned now😊 thanks to you sir
From Philippines
According to Plato ( c.428 - c.348bc ), when we are born we fly over the back of heaven and see all these perfect forms, such as a perfect chair and a perfect bed etc, but when we are born we lose this vision, but the one perfect form in heaven as on Earth is love, which gives an inkling of perfect forms in heaven. Unlike materialistic objects which are perceived with the senses forms such as goodness and honesty etc are understood only by reasoning which is why philosophy is so important.
Fascinating. The Counterfeit Problem parallels the function I used for my Irrationality Principle: that for every True statement that can be made, there are an infinite number of possible True statements whose Truth values conflict with or otherwise contradict the established axioms inherent within any perceived Truth. Where Logic is a function determined by the Emotional content of an argument multiplied by a factor of perceived Authority, absolutely anything can be believed, and it is necessarily impossible to confirm any particular Truths as objective relative to any other consistent set of Truths.
My go to example is the split between Relativity and Quantum Mechanics, with Relativity inherently implying its own inability to explain certain functions of Quantum Mechanics. Both are highly accurate and valuable Truths, yet their mutual existence contradict each other.
@@MaulqasmPK You're describing with Words I made my Ape brain think as Thoughts a while ago.
It be like that sometimes.
Great lecture. Not enough on my guy Spinoza but towards the end we are ideas in a world mind nailed it.
Philosophy is NOT a single subject. Philosophy is a means of, or approach to a particular topic or subject that incorporates or involves the asking and attempting to answer certain questions, just as science is a method of study in order to (both quantitatively and qualitatively) ask and answer certain questions.
You are remarkably smart!!
Perfect teacher 👌👌
Thanks for the upload ....
The “wow…dude” at the end after the thing w the chalk was so funny
Amazing!! Thank you!!!
Pretty good for a free lecture xD. I wish more people would watch this, most people just give me blank stares or incredibly poor responses whenever I bring up epistemology (the thought -> world mapping question, Hume, etc.).
The most common problem today is people both assuming and denying the entire concept of reality simultaneously under the so-called "social construct" model. A little bit of thought and education would do these types a great favor.
SO
GOOD!
This was great. Kind of reminds me of the idea that I can never know what your perception of blue is. We can agree on the colour of all blue objects being blue, and we can agree that the light that reflects into our eyes transmits the same information to our brains, but if was to see through your mind's eye perhaps your brain interprets the information of all colours to be the inverse of how my brain interprets them. Or maybe even your conception of what colour means is so radically different from mine that I wouldn't even recognise what you were thinking. But it's irrelevant because I will never see through your mind's eye, and we have calibrated our thoughts with language such that all our ideas align to avoid confusion even if what we are thinking is different. If anyone knows of any philosophers that touch on that sort of point specifically I'd love to know.
I was agreeing with Kant's mind independent lumina as well until Hegel had to come along and ruin it all >:(
Changed my life
If he ever wanted to, that guy could do a phenomenal Jeff Goldblum impression
Good lecture sir
Siddhartha Gauthama was the Enlightened one, the Greatest philosopher the human civilisation, humanity has seen known so far.🌹

You’d enjoy Deleuze
Hahaha Good one!
the side angle is more sylistic
Great teacher. He reminds me of Ray Manzarek from The Doors
Manzarek was my idol in high school; I played keyboards and learned a bunch of the Doors songs!
You should do a podcast version of these.
Philosophy is an intuition about reality ever-formulating itself in thought sculptures. In the senses of a real intuition, reality as an intuition, and an intuition of reality.
good overview of the concepts thank you. It didn't look like they solved the problem of form, they just described it in different ways or dismissed one element over emphasis on another element, which still doesn't solve the problem. I hope there is a continuance to the next attempts. It gave me the idea of nature vs nurture what Plato said. I would have used the example of animals about how they are born with instinctive knowledge, where the food is, mating rituals, other things seem not learned but instinctive. We're animals so we must have some instincts we were born with. I was thinking that our brains have the ability to understand concepts, to see patterns, to learn language constructs.
I could see where philosophy broke away from theology ans physics in this lecture as well. The last point scrubs out physics and just keeps philosophy in the realm of thought experiments and perceptions of the real world and how to acurately describe the world in a way we can all agree on.
I don't know any philosophy but I think I started to like it
Wow, you are a very good teacher, Very well explained :)
Thank you! 😃
