Re-thinking
"I think, Therefore I Am"
by Adam Abraham
While he made important contributions in the
fields of mathematics and science, one axiom presented by French
philosopher René Descartes (1596-1650), still retains its original
freshness: "I think, therefore, I am." As originally written
in Latin, the phrase reads: cogito (I think), ergo (therefore) sum
(I am). These words have, in all likelihood, given many Fresh Thinkers
something to think about already, as questions to the nature of
reality and being are even more natural than apple pie, though perhaps
not as tasty.
Descartes’ famous axiom represented a distillation
of truth down to its essential element, which he determined to be
thought. The purpose of his distillation was to prove, beyond doubt
(reasonable or unreasonable) *his* existence, to *himself*. Thought,
and his place—the Thinker—as a constant conduit thereof, represented
his proof.
