It is healthy for individuals to retrospect and meditate on the philosophical aspects of life as they allow them to evolve and become better people. Who are we, apart from the names, nationalities, and other social attributes? At the core, who are we and what defines who we are? If telling lies is frowned upon, why do we as a society condone the use of white lies? Is it better to let someone be exploited and live with the guilt of having done nothing? Or is it better to intervene and sacrifice yourself, causing the survivor to feel guilty for the loss of your life? How much money would it take for you to kill or harm another human being? Is it better to be a dysfunctional person in a functional society, or to be one of the people running a profoundly dysfunctional society? Is it better to die fighting for your beliefs or to sit patiently waiting for an opportunity to induce change? Is time a physical entity or a metaphysical entity? Who decides what the society perceives to be right and wrong?ĭoes it matter if a person is moral or not, if he/she is truly happy? What is the relationship between the mind and the body? Why must all individuals conform to the gender roles described by society?

Is it better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all? What is intelligence? Is it defined by prowess over academic knowledge or by the way one carries out their day-to-day affairs? “ Money can’t buy happiness“, but can one ever truly be happy without money?ĭo we have a soul? What happens to it after the physical body dies? Is it alright to do something wrong, if no one knows or finds out about it?Ĭan wrong actions be excused and accepted if the outcome is for the greater good of the society? Why are people sometimes hesitant in pursuing what they desire the most? How do we decide to be something or someone, without ever trying to be anything else first? Is failing at something worse than not attempting it in the first place? What is death and in what form do we exist, if we exist at all, after death?ĭoes God or a God-like higher power exist?

Does the physical world really exist or is it just a virtual reality created by our brains?
