Introduction

Philosophy has played a significant role in the determination of various aspects of life. It was considered as the fundamental unit of the all subjects that were going to be taught in the future because it laid there foundation. There were many philosophers that came in this world and gave their amazing hypothesis out of which few are still accepted but few of them got eradicated from time to time with the proceedings of the life and with the development of various other theories and their application process. But then there were few philosophers in the world who came and they were so determined about their work that they gave so accurate and on point readings and teachings that they are still being applicable after their death. Many centuries have gone but its applicability is still being managed in all the fields of life.

There was a time when the subject of philosophy gave the cream of philosophers who were recognized globally due to their work and their efforts and hard work that they used to pour in to give the best results to the people who have that immense faith on them they will not let them down in any way. Greatest philosophers were produced in the era of Alexander the great and at that time the people learned more about the world and logics of creating world and the elements of world and the realities of the world which were not exposed in front of the people. From time to time people started learning a new concept about life which opened their thinking process and helped them in determining various aspects of life. Those aspects are still being applicable and teachers all across the globe consider them as one of the amazing findings of that time which have helped them in enhancing their knowledge.

Discussion

There were many philosophers at that time who have come and conquered the world with their ultimate work. Many of them still have a significant place in the field of philosophy. In my opinion there were three great philosophers of the world who came and conquered the field of the philosophy with their unique and amazing concepts which are still applicable. The teacher student duo, Socrates and Aristotle are one of them whose teachings were so on point that today they are considered as the fathers of philosophy and then it was Karl Marx who is considered as the father of modern philosophy.

The teachings of Socrates were the basics of philosophy. The dilemma that occurred with the teachings of Socrates that occurred at that era of time was, there were lesser ways introduced to save and keep the record of all the teachings and many of the philosophers have suffered a lot that their golden teachings and their major contribution towards their subject finished with the end of their life. Socrates was a kind of philosopher that never believed in saving the teachings and he believed that they should be continued as there might be a chance that the teachings might get negated in the future era. Before his death he gave some golden rules of life that are still being applied and they are the core element of living a contented and happy life. His first golden rule was to pay all the debts before you are dead as it is your responsibility and after your death nobody will take this duty. The second thing he said was pay it and do not neglect it and the last and yet the most essential teaching that he gave to mankind was that never forget whatever happened in your life(Douglas, Intro to Philosophy).

His student also followed his footsteps and gained the faith of people at that time in the and gave some amazing concepts about the reality and of the world which later on served as the fundamental units of life in various subjects like metaphysics and the basic units of physics. He gave the unique concepts of the basic 5 elements out of which earth was made. He believed that the earth was made up of water, air, fire, soil and aether (Aristotle, 2019). He proved the basic 4 elements but when it came towards the vital experiment of aether he confessed that it was made up of a heavenly material which is not located on the earth physically but its existence is there. The other mortality concept that was given by him as that all men are mortal and all men are the men of God which restored their faith towards the existence of God.

After these 2 eminent philosophers of the time, the third philosopher who came and conquered the world with its modern thoughts were Karl Marx who gave the western approach towards the life and gave the new concepts to the people about capitalism, socialism, class differences and racial differences(Arendt, 2002). These teaching broaden up the conceptual reality of the people who used to exist at that time and gave them a new hope to look in to the matter and gave a new dimension to their life and provided them a chance to increase their living standards as per the requirement of the time.

Conclusion

With this we can conclude that that al the philosophers of the various eras gave the unique concepts about life earth and people that have helped them a lot in all the aspects of life. Not only that but it has broaden up their thinking and living process.
