The Plato theory in Dualism closely resembles my belief about the soul.

He also believes in the reincarnation of the soul‚ which is something I have always agreed with. What humans are really the immaterial mind-soul‚ trapped in a physical body. The way each person interprets distinctive acts and react to them using their own good or evil methods

Cynicism Cynicism is one of the most striking of all the Hellenistic philosophies. It offered people the possibility of happiness and freedom from suffering in an age of uncertainty.

In this paper‚ I will investigate how Plato’s epistemology revolves around the following tenets: how the souls of humans and never-changing Forms make knowledge possible. In the Meno he uses the Socratic Method to introduce the theory of recollection—solving Meno’s paradox and proving the existence of humans’ immortal soul—and defines knowledge as justified true belief.

Foua and Nao Kao came to America for the same reasons as many other Hmong families did and that was to avoid the assimilation they were faced with living in Laos.
