Few posts ago I've posted a few videos of a crazy guy who tries to
compress the wide teachings of the most important considered
philosophers in just 3 minutes. Where he avaluates through the
major ideas of each of the Philosophical teachers, the thought
school born by the philosopher etc.
While I was browsing in youtube through the rest of the 3 minutes
philosophy of S. Peter Davis, I've come across an interesting one
about pythagoras.
Check it out below:
Three minutes of philosophy on Pythagoras
If you don't consider the vulgarism and the bloody scene some of
the concepts presented about pythagoras and their determination as
a "cult" seemed interesting to me.
Another interesting idea that the video discusses is the Renessance
and the huge influence of Renessance by the Pythagorian's ancient
philosophy.
Well as I've heard it from old people in Bulgaria: "Everything new
thing is actually a good forgotten old one", guess this is pretty
much the case with the pythagorian's movement about perfection
through numbers.
It's obvious that Pythagoras was the most influential philosopher
on today's world, most of his ideas and discoverias are essential
in ever most of our today's activities.
So I guess he deserves a bit more credit than the video grants him
? :)
