September 28, 2010

We learned about the story of Iwa and Orunmila. Orunmila represented Yoruba, the God of wisdom. How Iwa left Orunmila and he had lost everything he had so he searched for her. Omo Olu Iwa Bi the child of Iwa. Iwa was responsible for serving her community with education and to remake her self through education. Immorality is a crown of existence in the memory of the community. She was a good character that held beauty. A good character makes a great tails man. Swru was the father of Iwa and he represented patience. She was good as existence. Intrinsically and extrinsically.

We also learned about the instructions of Ptahhotep, the humanistic maxims for living. The ancient Egyptian and African world. How physical, spiritual, philosophical, and ethical values were the main points and things worshiped. There was balance and harmony which was very important and how truth and justice maintained order. The sharia and pyramid texts. Kant's groundwork and the text on the coffins each held an important meaning. Mills utilitarianism from Ma'at.
