Such a feeling is in fact the supreme religious feeling mentioned above.
Such a feeling is in fact the supreme religious feeling mentioned above. Of course, man's reaching this great and profound feeling - which regards each human being as a fundamental component of the general harmony of the universe - calls for development and perfection.
e) Some regard scientific, industrial and artistic advances and human cultures as the motive for respecting the human disposition, whereas such issues can only prove the greatness and importance of human potentials, not the necessity of respecting the human disposition. During the last few centuries, science has made a great deal of progress, but respect for the human disposition has waned.
f) Humanists also support the value of man, referring to the decree of wisdom and reason on the necessity of supporting mankind. Depending on reason and wisdom - theoretical wisdom and reason, at that, which does not concern supreme human values and principles - respect and value for the human disposition cannot be gained.
Reason-based humanism, which has become hugely popular these days, has still not been successful in bringing human beings together in friendship and affection, or creating respect and love between them. The only motive that can make value and respect for the human disposition a reality is a religious one. 8- Concepts like character, ego, spirit and soul will only exist when the spiritual dimension of man's life is activated.
Drowning in selfishness and hedonism destroys the harmony in man's management of his life, inhibiting his character, ego and spirit - which are vital for the evolution of man's life - from flourishing. When man feels hedonism is all he needs, he will not seek spirit or character anymore.
