Use Of Philosophy- A Letter

Dear Jeyamohan

I listened to your speeches on YouTube; they are very sharp and short. I liked them. However, I am highly skeptical about the use of philosophical discourses. In my life, I have come to understand one thing very clearly: our actions are the only things that matter. All other things are meaningless words and a waste of mental energy. Doing and learning from direct experience is the only way to improve ourselves. Sorry to say this.

Dear Arvind ,

I can clearly understand what you are saying, but I am doubtful whether you understand what I am trying to communicate. The various activities listed in my profile show that I am a man of action. I write creative literature, write articles daily on three websites, conduct philosophy classes, and work in the film industry for a living.

I’m presenting an action philosophy. It seems you have complete confidence in your activities. However, many individuals lack this level of confidence and faith. They are confused and sluggish. If the reason for their confusion is psychological, they have to find a psychological solution, right? If the reason is philosophical, they must solve it through philosophy alone. I’m only talking about the philosophical discourse.
