The human person is the important subject in

Philosophy and an understanding of the nature and
condition of the person is one of the foremost goals of
discipline. Philosophers have a long pondered of human
nature, what it means to be human and what sets us
apart from other beings and things in existence.
We often asked ourselves, “What makes us special? “
Pondering our human nature allows us to determine the
special traits that make us humans unique as a species.
Further reflection on our nature as human will also help
us figure out what makes us special as individuals and
how this uniqueness is shared with the fellow human
beings.

A man is not only a body, but he is something infinitely

higher. Of all animal creations of God, man is the only
animal who was created in order that he may know his
maker.Man’s aim in life is not to add from day to day to
his material prospects and to his material possessions
but his predominant calling is from day to day to come
nearer to his matter ( Mohandas Gandhi, 1948.)

To recognize our own limitations possibilities it is right to

know where we are, what is our world.

According to Plato, reality is made up of two worlds

namely, the world of Forms and the world of Sense
where human beings participate in both of the worlds.

The world of sense which is proposed and believe by

Heraclitus, is the world see, experience, the world of
object ; a world change; it s made up of matter and is
bound to decomposition.
Heraclitus proves this through the statements, “ Cold
things grow, hot cools, the wet dries, the parched
moistens.” and “ We bot step and do not step into the
same rivers . We are and we are not.”

The world of Forms which proposed by Pamenides who

influenced Plato in this type of world that is eternal ,
perfect and unchanging.
Parmenides proves that the world of Forms by his
statement “ We can speak and think only of what exists.
And what exist is uncreated and imperishable for it is
whole and unchanging and complete. It was not or nor
shall be different since it is now, all at once, one and
continuous.

Transcendence means that “ I am my body but at the

same time I am more than my body. The things that I do
 all those physical activities and attributes which are
made through body, reveals the person that I am.”
