The source of all human knowledge — Rzwsan

So if I were to ask anyone that how do you know about a particular knowledge, they would probably say about like “I learned it from somewhere” and that somewhere would be any things into it, it would be learning from courses material, from others, for just self finding through the internet. And now it’s matter how they come through all the other things into this knowing of how it come into existence into their mind.

For years thinkers and philosopher had thought about the idea of knowledge and things come into them, it’s either maybe from independent thinking (rationalism) you do a calculation in your head and you know the answer even though you couldn’t need to look into the world to know about it or (empiricism) you look at a apple and see it’s in red color and then you remember for life that normally and usually the color of apple is red or maybe sometimes people are pouring the knowledge into you, like a kid get taught by his teacher on how to do calculation and taught him that apple is red usually.

But the most important point in all these is not that you need to only understand origin of knowledge itself it’s more than just “understanding” it’s requires the understanding of the context and also the human mind itself to understand thing.

One of the biggest problem in human mind is that it’s passiveness towards knowledge for things it’s feels don’t require attention or sometimes couldn’t answer and then forget about it which makes it difficult to find the problem of “finding the origin” of particular knowing or knowledge about something which is either independent in reason or experiences.

A person who has struggled deeply heavily through depression for years and years just couldn’t go a therapist and could have say all the things at one way that what his problems are cause he neglected that part of knowledge for so long that tracing back to the origin of the problems he facing it’s difficult and lack that part. And not only depression but this happens with almost any other knowledge if the brain itself thinks that something is not required to give attention to, or couldn’t properly find a way into knowledge it’s sit and spiral into a complex of various thinking combined together so if one day he decided to go back to that knowledge he just couldn’t find it anyone cause it has become too complex to find.

The other point of this is also that “sometimes you just don’t need to back to the origin if some knowledge or some hints about the knowledge already filling up the rest of the knowledge itself”. If you had learn about something in the past and actually understand it genuinely and then forget then there is a high chance that after long time if you just read a small portion of similar or that kind of knowledge there is a high change you will able to remember the whole knowledge again. The context of the knowledge matters a lot into these things.

Throughout the above examples and theories you would see that I am not just viewing it or trying to explain it through the lens of epistemology itself, the think the more and better approach towards this kind of questions is more about understanding the interconnecting domains about this knowledge, if you want to understand knowledge you have to understand human mind and in order to understand human mind you need to understand psychology and many more things as well.

Cause you need to understand about the point that knowledge is subjective towards humans. They don’t sometimes need the whole thing about the knowledge or needed in a way that suits them the best rather than knowing everything. And that’s why you’ll see in social structure and societies and even though maybe all the people in that society have great knowledge about the things they do and work about it they still work through their own way which they want to do through those knowledge rather than using the whole knowledge towards one way in a collective.

Most of the time in epistemology we forget about the idea of practical in knowledge within humans and this is not about experiences by looking at the world, it’s about the person having the knowledge and it’s does to it.

The origin of knowledge itself can be wrong. It’s also depend on the context of learning and by which medium of learning (teachings, courses, books, essays or thinking) or arriving at that knowledge in the first place. It’s heavily depend on the person conscience in identifying the knowledge for themselves. Knowledge can be manipulative, biased, and wrong or right depending on how it been represented to the people or the people from itself learning about it.

The translation or bringing the knowledge onto existence can be done by rationalism itself, you first know how to do the thing by learning, and then use that think to do the thing into existence. Rationalism become the center part of bring knowledge into existence for example a doctor first understand the know about the survey...

knowledge understand things through human know
