Ancient wisdom, everyday life

What can philosophy teach us about living today?

Explore Eastern and Western traditions through ethics, human relationships, and history. The course connects timeless ideas with self-awareness, inner strength, and meaningful participation in society.

Each weekly session includes a one-hour lecture followed by 30 minutes of discussion. Guided questions and practical exercises connect the teachings with your own experiences.

What you will explore

  • Key ideas from major Eastern and Western philosophical traditions.
  • Ethical principles for everyday choices and challenges.
  • Self-knowledge as a foundation for personal growth.
  • Dialogue, education, and shared values in community life.
  • Individual responsibility and our relationship with history and the future.

The introductory program
