Philosophy means love of wisdom. If science equates to wisdom which it does not, there ain’t much love in it, which means that there is a missing dimension in our understanding of the universe.
Love is supra rational in dimension. Humans are characterized by love. Humans participate in love in a variety of ways.
Wisdom is insight which means being able to recognize what’s right and just from motivational factors. To possess wisdom is to be able to view and navigate through technically complicated scenarios from a higher birds- eye vantage point of view that avoids detrimental outcomes.
Wisdom is to view a given situation as a harmonious whole, not from a fragmented point of view.
Philosophy rightly incorporates aesthetics as an integral component without which it would not be able to address the subject of beauty. Beauty directly appeals to the soul. Beauty is the feminine counterpart to intelligence.
To regard something as reflecting beauty is to be able to recognize proportion in its dimensions. Proportion connects intelligence and beauty.
Finally, the Fibonacci proportions in phenomena reflect intelligence and beauty. The Fibonacci proportions characterize the universe and is reflected in it at every level.
