Eternal Questions of Humanity—Revisiting the Ancient Wisdom for Contemporary Crisis

Author(s) Mr. Prashant Pravinbhai Chauhan
Country India
Abstract Humanity today is in one of the most technologically developed eras in history. With the rapid developments in digital communication, artificial intelligence, transportation, and global connectivity, the present age could be considered the most favourable time to live in. However, despite all the extraordinary progress, the fundamental questions that have confronted human civilization for millennia persist. Issues such as war, inequality, discrimination, and ecological imbalance continues to challenge societies across the world. These continuous crises suggest that technological developments alone has not solved the deeper ethical and philosophical problems fundamental to human existence.
Alfred Korzybski’s theory of General Semantics suggests that humans have a distinct ability of time-binding: the ability to learn from the collected wisdom of past generations. However, it appears as if humanity is unable to use this inherited knowledge to overcome its fundamental conflicts. Ancient philosophical traditions, however, offer profound insights that remain relevant today. This paper revisits the teachings of Plato’s Republic alongside the metaphysical and ethical principles of the Indian Upanishads to explore how ancient wisdom can illuminate possible pathways for philosophical approach, the study proposes that many modern crises may find its possible and meaningful solutions in the light of the classic and ancient texts.
Keywords Modern Crises, Time-Binding, Upanishadic Philosophy, Plato’s Republic, Human Civilization.
