All important writing requires discussions and hence come loftiness of words; and discovery of the resemblance of truth.
What rules self is called knowledge. The object of knowledge is thought, a rational principle of self, whereas the other principle of self may be termed the ally of pleasures and satisfactions.
Knowledge is proficiently disposed in mind with a view to render things clear and intelligible. Kant supposed all knowledge reduces to opinion. Spinoza asserted knowledge was oneness of thought. Whereas Descartes’ thought knowledge is a higher sense of science.
Leibniz thought knowledge was self-sufficient individuality. Socrates believed Knowledge rests upon the principle that carries out good.
Knowledge comes on the scene as a pathway pressing forward to truth. Knowledge, which is termed recollection, embraces nothing less than the entire good. When mind is perplexed when there is a plurality, begins to be aroused wants to know the truth asks what is great and what is small is the process of discovery and the difference of the visible world and the intelligible world.
Now knowledge is what we philosophers bring to light. There is an old saying that philosophers should not try to please people but good and noble God. If the way is long and circuitous, doubt not at this, for, where the end is great may take a longer path.

Belief brings about despair, proceeding straight away criticizing and thus enables what belief wants to undertake. Therefore, belief can be looked on as despair. This pathway is on one hand, and on the other the actual carrying out of the intention.
Truth demonstrates the course. What is truth but objective reality, an assurance of existence but not existence, is merely abstract unintelligible, just the bare reason of self. Only when self comes forward asserts not just certainty of itself but reason, the bare and simple truth.
Conviction is simply self-conscious ideality has no support cannot stand alone because belief has no point of view, is just simply believes completely. Belief is pure implicit thought within self has an actual reason, self- of one distinguishing self within self same pure identity.
Hegel calls this “thing hood” which keeps us in bondage. Belief is a chain from which self cannot get away from. “Thing hood” it is a transparent universal element within self.

The bear simple truth is but objective reality is belief of being.

There are two guiding ruling principles in everyone, feeling and the other is belief and these two, is sometimes in harmony and then again at war and sometimes one conquers the other.

The life of Pythagoras his followers wrote are intermingled with many marvelous and extravagant tales. Pythagoras career in Italy in and around 530 B.C. with a miracle, beginning when Pythagoras landed in the Bay of Tarentum, at Crotona. Pythagoras encountered fishermen on the way to the town who had caught nothing. He called upon them to draw their nets once more and foretold the number of fish they would catch.
The fishermen, thinking this was an amazing thing this prophecy, promised if it came true, they would do whatever Pythagoras desired. It came to pass and Pythagoras told his new followers to throw the fish back into the sea, for a Pythagorean ate no flesh.
A historic fact, he also established a school of science and influenced the principal part of the Greco-Italian states rules, which were exercised through his order.
At the time, Egypt was regarded as a highly cultured country. From Egypt Pythagoras thus, no doubt, brought the idea of his order, which was a regular community brought together for purposes of scientific and moral culture that endured during his whole life.
He was the first instructor in Greece who introduced the teachings of knowledge: There were at the time no sciences of philosophy. Pythagoras had a very strict order for each day in which each hour had its purpose. The morning, directly after rising, was set aside for recalling to memory the history of the previous day, because what is to be done in the day depends chiefly on the previous day. In order to find whether the deeds in the day were done and if they were right or wrong. Their principal food was honey and bread, and liquid was water. He died in 69th Olympiad (504,B.C). Some historians say about his lengthy life he was 80 and some 104 year old.

Reason is not to be found anywhere in the area of one-sided views or a matter of clever turns of phrases, half remarks and semi- discussion.
Reason is midway between feelings and thinking is has been called universal blood or the mind of the world, the simple bareness of all that has gone before.
Reason is on account of conviction and knowledge goes beyond self to perform; to employ all the greatest advantage powers of mind in choosing the paths we ought to follow. Reason has the power of elevating the mind to the highest principles of existence.
Belief is what makes reason complete, because reason cannot be seen; it is simply undifferentiated self-conscious ideal which has no support, cannot stand alone because it is merely ideal, has no inherent standpoint only purpose whole.
Therefore, principle is nothing else than pure conscious thought in relation to self. It is a kind of enlightenment nothing else than the inner reality of pure consciousness, the ultimately simple without judgment; it is the pure ideal being, pure thought within itself.
Reason is that inner reality merely pure ideal or sheer implicit power within self. Here is self-distinguishing self without action. Action assumes a specific determination.
What is astonishing is knowledge how it is the process of recovering what may that be rightly termed recollection? The very fact that Knowledge comes on the scene is a phenomenon; from the point of view knowledge can be taken as the pathway of the natural consciousness, which is pressing forward to truth.

Those who learn only have recollection. I say desire could hardly have tasted the sweetness of learning.
The pleasure of learning is my pursuit, ever learning, is not so far from the heaven of pleasure.
Fix your mind on what has preoccupied and disquieted the culture of today. Life has fallen into such disunity it has become the task of philosophy to undo this disarray and reawaken knowledge.
When there id a gulf that has arisen between people and living is no longer, satisfying we need philosophy. This was so with the Ionic people they were buried in an unfettered wild fancy Quagmire.

I take on board your point but think perhaps you skimmed over the value of knowledge, both inherent and otherwise.

Mine is different I was not satisfied with what I had been taught began to read all the great books the most curious and rare. The long chain of learning caused me to imagine that all things maybe related in same fashion. I did not hope for any practical result except to rid my mind filled with false opinion.
I read all the books that had fallen into my hands, esteemed them most curious and rare. The writings of the ancients stirred my mind; the memorable deeds of history and the interviews with the noblest people of past ages, the choicest thoughts; eloquence has incomparable force and beauty;
I believe I have given sufficient time to studies, and likewise to the reading of the writings of the ancients, to their histories and fables. Thus after I had been occupied several years in studying I began essaying to gather some experience,
Philosophy few schools utilize it and that leads to a lack of interest and understandably, philosophical theories are difficult. In addition to difficult as matters stand now, today students see no profit in learning. Never mind even though disregarded as philosophy is seen still by its natural charm emerges into light.

Whether it is the sun or earth that moves is a matter of indifference if the only players but in heaven has, three uniformed partly free and unconditionally free motion. These are called universal gravitation, where structure is the relationship of one and another as space and time is this reciprocally regulated principle of two in one determination.
Matter does not automatically pass over into motion or does motion not automatically pass over into substance only through gravity; no matter without motion and no motion without matter dwelling in the same place this is gravity,
I know this is a truly finite and extremely hard subject to comprehend but we must want grasp the spirit of nature and gather it’s meaning in a partly practical and partly theoretical manner. Here ism
Intend it to be a starting point to all further scientific studies. Nature is not the affair of imagination, but is a specific subject matter and reason.
Knowledge which is the acme of scientific procedure will continue to be ignorant analogy passed off as knowledge because you think Nature is this other, and we are other then Nature.
All I can say the knowledge is worthy to be called wisdom has been ordained in my mind like a dye prepared and dressed with much care and pains; and whatever dyed in this manner becomes a fast color, and no washing either with lye or some potent solvent can take away the bloom Socrates calls Knowledge.

The idea of good is the highest knowledge and that all other things become useful and advantageous by good. If we all pursued it and made it our end of all action we would rest upon good, perceive it and understand how good shines with intelligence.
Truth and knowledge are deemed to be like good, but not good; good has a higher honor. In the world of knowledge, the idea of good makes its appearance at a time when the spirit of people has worked way out of indifference and insensitiveness into world-spirit consciousness.
Where unconscious spirit comes and rises out into the conscious universal spirit.
Many people think there is difficulty knowing therefore they never rise above the senses so accustomed to consider excepting imagines that do not give assurance of truth. Seeing or hearing can never assure us of anything if knowledge does not intervene?
Knowledge in the case of virtue plays the inner principle role that carries out good. Truth is certainty, appearance and perceives things only by the help of sight or hearing or some other senses. But before seeing hearing or perceiving we must have knowledge.
Socrates believed we should be a slaves of good, so that all may be, as far as possible, under the same law, friends and contemporaries pursue good or at least as far as can attain likeness of good.

Turn back to the period which took place thousands of years ago. Love of knowledge was a new distinctive and contributions to the field of science and intellectual world.
That is why we must watch over philosophy like good farmers nurturing and cultivating its gentle qualities, and preventing wild unfettered ones from entering. Not aggressively soothing and removing dislike of philosophy.
Philosophy we are ever directed towards things all in order moving according to reason; these we must imitate and to these we will, as far as we can. Now can a person help imitating that with which philosophy hold so reverential?
The absolute aim is the consequence and that is purpose but purpose is the prey of outside forces attacks and helps to drive purpose on into unfamiliar far-flung road of despondency, a path of doubt, shoving against purpose. Knowledge is the instrument needed to carry out purpose.

If we wanted to grasp the spirit of nature, it’s meaning, stand back, away, and adjust to nature in a partly practical and partly theoretical way. This is the starting point for all scientific studies. The examination of Nature is not the affair of the imagination nor ignorant analogies passed off as knowledge, which think nature is another, and are other then nature.
Philosophy the acme of scientific procedure will continue to be ignorant analogy, passed off as divine knowledge. What I write is unusual and may perhaps not be acceptable to everyone but at the same time "I think, therefore I am” is so certain and so assured that all the most extravagant suppositions brought forward by skeptics I give entirely to the search of truth and have laid out sufficiently and soundly that reason is in nature.

The criteria of knowing are not truth, but wisdom, insight and understanding that all derive from the senses
The use of numbers is a necessity in the attainment of truth. Let us gaze towards the full perfection of numbers and behold not a narrow manner of squaring and extending and applying and the like; this is narrow mindedness only and confusing. Knowledge is a phenomenon or rather the ruin and overthrow of self, therefore the path can be looked on as the road of doubt, or more properly the expressway of despair.
If we stick to a system other than opinion and prejudice which is conceit and rest upon conviction, that simple form finished and complete intention that actual carries out conviction is certainly more than to hand self over to opinion held out of personal desire.

Careful thought comes truth and with it, compassion of other’s this power is in our soul and is most good. What is truth but objective reality, in other words, certainty of being but can’t comprehend or understood, merely the bare reason of self. They are called the mechanical sphere of feeling. This is called the theoretical process and determines logically how to distinguish things. This antithesis of inner and outer is our determinate inner character actual realized individuality being objective.
