A new book titled “A New Birth: Philosophy as a Way of Life” by Zohair El Yakoubi has been published by “Dar Difaf”, “Samah”, and “Ikhtilaf”. The author redefines philosophy not as abstract theories but as a practical method for enhancing self-awareness and improving the quality of life.
The 216-page book, structured in two main sections, begins with an exploration of ancient philosophy as a lifestyle and spiritual practice aimed at achieving wisdom and inner harmony. The second part highlights the resurgence of philosophy as a way of life in modern times through the works of Henry David Thoreau, Ludwig Wittgenstein, and Richard Rorty.
The book critiques traditional academic approaches to philosophy and emphasizes its application as a practical and spiritual tool for personal transformation. El Yakoubi invites readers to embrace philosophy as a practical approach to living a more meaningful and conscious life.
