How do culture and philosophy relate to each other? What are some examples of customs or traditions in your culture? What is your personal philosophy? How is your philosophy shaped by your culture?
In my culture we have a various amounts of traditions. For example the women cook in the kitchen while men do the cooking outdoors. It's never been explained to me why, but I guess it's just one of those things that just happened to be like that. Another thing is that in our culture we eat a lot of spicy foods. Then there is this thing called a "quinceañera", which celebrates a young girl becoming a woman. This happens at the age of fifteen and it's a very big deal! Family comes from all over, there is lots of food and the party goes on until you can't dance any longer. These are few examples of traditions that are in the Mexican culture.
I think culture and philosophy go hand-in-hand; different cultures have different philosophies on different things. Usually culture influences philosophy and vise versa. I can't really think of any customs or traditions in my culture...because I'm just American, and most customs I have are shared with pretty much everyone else in this class.
A personal philosophy, well I don't know if it's considered that...I'm guessing it could be. Is that I'm a Lacto-Ovo Vegetarian, meaning I don't eat meats (chicken, beef, pork, fish) but I still eat eggs, cheese and drink milk. I know a lot of people think vegetarianism is stupid or they just don't understand it, I know this because I used to be one of those people. Most people are scared of something different to them or just naive, and meat is a HUGE part of American culture and diet...so by not eating it many people automatically assume things about me (stereotypes). Most of which are false, but its your opinion. I don't really think this "philosophy" of mine is shaped by my culture, because everything in my culture goes against it pretty much. I think its just literally a personal belief. I just think the way animals are treated today in factory farms and how many antibiotics etc. are put in our meats is just gross. It's not something I want to put in my body. I also have many other points about vegetarianism, but I wont go into detail because a lot of people get mad/offended or just disagree with me. And I don't feel like arguing.
But if you do have anymore questions about vegetarianism or my beliefs, feel free to ask me, because I'm happy to answer them!
Culture and philosophy relate to each other because their both like a belief. Culture is many beliefs, customs, food, and tradition. Philosophy is something that you believe in and have reasoning for it. Some customs or traditions in my culture is respect. Really we dont have special customs. The customs we have is just like any other cultures customs. My philosophy is shaped by my "environment" because its things or sayings that i got from my surroundings.
Culture and philosophy are related because with a philosophy a culture can define many things.Their philosophy such as reincarnation; can show why some people do their duties to move up in life. One tradition of my hmong culture is when we get married, we do a big celebration at the bribes house. My personal philosophy is from the Lion King! Hakuna Matatta! It means no worries! Well my culture is just being founded. I still keep tradition but i seriously dont know how my culture is shaped by my philosophy!
Philosophy and culture are part of a cycle of human and social behavior. Like humans, a culture develops, thrives, and collapses over a certain amount of time (which depends on how efficient the society is). The life-span of a culture depends on the general philosophy of that culture, because the philosophy is the factor that changes it. A culture that has internal disputes, an unhappy majority, or a segregation of beliefs, will fall very quickly. However, a culture that has a content populous will most likely last longer and subsequently thrive. Philosophy/religion/ideology fits in to this as a variable: if the philosophy changes, society will. A culture that thrives on selfish impulses, accumulation of wealth, or objectification of others, it will decline. A culture that generally holds an ideal of work ethic and bettering the nation will most likely do well. In the end, however, success of a cultural group is a matter of chance.
Culture and philosophy relate to each other because they are both based on beliefs. My culture has many customs but the most important one is to respect your elders. A personal philosophy of mines is you should live life at ease. This personal philosophy of mines is not shape at all by my culture but through my experience in life.
In my culture we are all Mexican. I think that our culture is normal we don't do anything That weird. All Mexican men like cooking outdoors and the ladies like cooking inside. Most Mexican men like to wear boots made of snake and wear big hats. Most Mexican family eat beans, its our food.
A person's philosophy is based on their culture; how they feel about the world is based on what they experience in it. Mother Culture says to continue the way we have run our lives. To grow up and go to work, make a living, supply for a family, then retire and live in peace. I believe that anything is possible since there is no way to know what the truth is, but that it is likely that there is no chance. Not fate or destiny, simply that everything we do has only one outcome, the one that ends up happening. Things in culture seem to happen and continue to happen with fairly stable results, so does everything in life, not prediction, but detectable patterns with changing details.
to me culture is like special things that make your people different from others. alot of cultures have many spritual philosophies and high morals and standards. i dont think my culture is very strong, personally. dont get me wrong we do have morals and standards but nothing too specific.
I think culture and philosophy relate because its one personal beliefs.Philosophy is ones opinion about something,culture is how someone does things based on their beliefs.My culture customs are music,dancing, and that food and laughter are good for the soul.My mom says that we all black people originate from africa.My personal philosophy is that respect is all you need in life to get through it. I feel that way because if you respect others they should and will do it back.With respect comes happy people, love and fun.Philosophy has shaped mu culture because my cultures customs were made from ones personal beliefs about it.
Culture and philosophy are related to each other because they both have to do with a belief in the society. One example in my culture is that we could not marry another person with the same last name that we have. My personal philosophy is that I believed that everyone has a role in society. My philosophy is shaped by my culture is that the man are the Head of the House and the women are the one that makes the food and looks after the kids.
When I think of Culture, I think of heritage, pride, and tradition. I believe that culture is a very important thing in our lives, because it reflects "YOU". To me my culture is very important in my life and that's what makes me be myself!
hello whoever this is my senior year, that i happy, but a little sad that my grade was low. im worry about that so much. but anywise i still don't want to stop my education i gonna keep it up again, but that i just wish i don't know i can do. im a boy that not good at english, because i just been to the us for 4 yrs. i not good at the way speaking, writing or freind with the people that know speak well. my life was crazy. i am the fool boy. but it ok next i gonna be learn or hardwork so i can be better soon. bye!.
life is long for me. day is long for me. night is long for me. But time is short for me. in my life i need more time for but can't do that nobody can change the time. only angel can change the time but that is story never having true.
Well in my culture, most of us like alot of different types of food. Alot of us' like myself also tend to like bigger vehicles. We usually adopt what come to us.And another thing i tend to adopt is eating right and fitness. Sports is also a big part in our culture. One sport in particular is hockey. This is a sport that alot of us have grown up to know, play and love. There are many more customs to this culture, but these are a few.
I want to skip the questions about the "traditions" in my culture, because I don't really have any. It's sad, but true. Personal philosophy, however, is something I've been working on for quite awhile now. When I spoke with other people about what I considered to be my values, it always sounded like Karma/Dharma. Frankly, I LIKE the idea of dharma. I also feel a sense of negative and positive energy between people and it's not something unexplainable or religion-ish. I feel that the biochemistry between people acts as a measurement of karma. For example, have were you ever speaking to somebody and they have a slight tint of sarcasm in their voice? If you're sad, or offended, you feel that physically (most of the time) and that, to me, is karma. I like following this guide-line of emotions, because it's simple and the personal objectivity helps me make sense of situations. As for my "culture", I can only identify myself as American (but a weird one). Like most teens from the States, I value food, sleep and friends, but I don't really find myself wanting a car or shopping every weekend. Frankly, people are becoming more and more superficial and vain as time goes on. Sexual objectification is rampant, racial tension is almost at its breaking point and genetic disorders/diseases are running rampant through most members of American society. Our culture really IS declining, guys and that's kind of frightening.
I agree with Camille's comment about how philosophy and culture go hand in hand and how different cultures have different philosophies. Philosopies and cultures are a natural un-ending part of human life. Without culture and philosophy, we wouldn't be able to function properly because both are so deeply embedded into our world. Philosophy is almost kind of like our morals and standards for life. Because philosophy is basically your own personal opinion and belief on something. In my culture there isn't anything really special that stands out or is very special. As for whether or not I believe in dharma, karma, and reincarnation. I don't think I have a very strong opinion on either of those things. I somewhat, mildly, believe in karma. I don't believe the concept of dharma at all. And as for reincarnation, even though I am a Bhuddist, I still have doubts. I've never really been much of a religous person, so I don't believe in any ONE religion. I think the only way anyone could ever find out the truth is when we cross over to the "other side". So there's really no point in arguing over your beliefs and faith in your religion until you have experienced and witnessesed something first hand.
Philosophy is the idea or view someone has about something. People have their own views on their culture and how it should be yet I think they dont call their views philosophy. Being Mexican and living in the U.S. I have seen most of our culture changes and will keep changing. As well as that we are taking in a new culture. I think one of the biggest changes for our culture is that most kids now talk in "spanglish." I don't think i have a personal philosophy. Yet I do think a lot of things people could consider a philosophy. For example I am totally against domestic abuse, and belief in "women power." I didn't come up with that stuff, but I belief it.
Culture directly affects philosophy. The way we were born, the way we were raised, the holidays we celebrated, the people around us and their religious beliefs. These things are part of our culture and they will directly affect our philosophical beliefs. If your parent are one religion it is a pretty good chance that you will grow up to have the same religion, let alone if everyone in your entire culture does as well.
I think that one of the most important decisions that you will make in your life is whether you will accept or reject your culture's religion.
There are, in my view, three major groups. Those who are religious (to whatever extent) because they feel like they have to, be it for social reasons or because they are scared of the consequences (i.e. hell). There are those that actually take the time to think about religion and decide on a philosophy that fits them, original or otherwise. This includes Atheists because the decide not to believe in anything. Finally, there are those that just don't care and never thing about it, either identifying themselves as the same religion as their parents (with out question or practice) or just not having one.
I believe that the only wise ones here are the second group. One shouldn't just be religious because they feel like they should. That leads to unhappiness when and blind faith. Which ends with things like the crusades. If you don't believe anything then your life will seem empty and you will fear the end.
I think that everyone should believe whatever fits their life not just what culture dictates. The ultimate pursuit in life, no matter it be only once or infinite, should be to be happy. And your philosophy should help you reach that goal.
They go together because culture shapes the way people think in a way. Some customs are thanksgiving than you start getting ready for christmas the day after by shopping. my philosophy is shaped by our culture because of how open it is. If i lived in a different country like in africa or asia my thinking would probably be a lot different
