Embodied Mind Challenges Western Thought, Revolutionizing Philosophy and Society
The article explores how the idea of an embodied mind challenges traditional Western philosophy. It discusses how our unconscious mind influences our thoughts and how our physical bodies shape our understanding of the world. The research shows that our basic ideas about time, events, causes, the mind, the self, and morality are influenced by our embodied experiences. It also examines how early Greek philosophers, Plato, Aristotle, Descartes, Kant, and others have approached these philosophical concepts. The study suggests that our philosophical theories are deeply rooted in our physical experiences and interactions with the world.
