Philosophy of understanding
We equate scholarly interests in philosophic undertakings to individuals who pursue academic studies and subjects based on science, reason, objectivity, analysis, and tradition; understanding that the spiritual core of humanity account as the basis for society, culture, and civilization.
With this frame of reference, we can conclude the major source of any conflict and disagreement between the methods of reason, tradition, and the Divine Prescriptions arises because of tension between static assumptions and dynamic approaches to understanding reality.
Global Promise
Our philosophic reasoning presupposes a Global Promise espoused through succeeding ethereal deliverance down through the ages. They revealed a conscious reality of humanity as an entity of one, the resounding principle upon which a future world civilization will unfold, for which accords we make today will do much to facilitate humanity’s successive transition into the approaching new age augmented by wonders to be revealed.
Aristotle
"Aristotle’s analysis of reality is common sense and accessible in principle by anyone. A curious mind and probing thoughtfulness but no specialized equipment and no specialized experimental experiences are needed to verify the value of Aristotle’s analysis of reality"
Sources of knowledge
empiricism
Method of knowing, sense perception, classifies observable facts into an abstract formulation.
Reason
Understanding reality, logical & reasoning capacities of the mind, primary use in the field of philosophy.
Tradition
Based on religious belief systems existing in various cultures as schools of thought and convention.
Ethereal

PHILOSOPHIC MEANS
TO MEET NEW ERA REQUIREMENTS
"Understanding can be understood in different ways. An empirical inquiry might use experiments, interviews, surveys, and the like to uncover the mechanisms that make understanding possible, or it might track the
historical arc of our various conceptions of understanding. By contrast, will be pursuing a theoretical inquiry, in which I use various formal and conceptual apparatuses to construct a model of understanding."
"A philosophical theorist of understanding [might use instruments that] are the tools of [a] specific trade. Thus, while the interesting theoretical concepts found in the cognitive and social sciences undoubtedly illuminate various aspects of understanding, [his/her] preferred instruments [might] come from epistemology and the philosophy of science."
"Recent philosophical work on understanding straddles these venerable fields crisscrossing with larger questions about justification, knowledge, and other cognitive achievements; the point and purpose of scientific explanation; the role of models and idealizations in scientific theories; and the pragmatic aspects of scientific inquiry. These and other philosophical forays provide a repository of ways to plumb the hidden depths of understanding." -Cambridge University Press (2017)
