The Nichomachean Conception of Happiness

For Aristotle, happiness is a term that must be very accurate. He understands that "happiness is exquisite, a few people call it happiness, but people will argue about the nature of happiness." He first explained that happiness is the end, established the work of the man he discovered, created conditions for happiness, and then explained where human beings want happiness.

Then Aristotle took his "Nichomachean Code of Ethics." He believes that it is necessary to define eudaimonia - human prosperity or happiness - as a goal of life and to have a good moral life to achieve this moral well - being. Therefore, the whole discussion of his morality has become axiom - the purpose of life is happiness. I question the axiom; please look at Aristotle again. One day the devil summoned the god and said, "Let's bet on one person, you and my soul, from the sky they are Job, kind and wealthy family people, godly men, morals The devil said: The devil said: "I change my mind and let him curse your name, God." So the devil went to work. He destroyed herds of Job and destroyed her field. He was suffering from a lesion. But Job's love for God continues, its morality is not corrupted. No matter what unfortunate circumstances, everyone should say "Fear the Lord and avoid evil". This is another way of saying that even if he is a jerk, you love your master.

According to Aristotle's Nichomachean ethics, happiness is the ultimate goal of mankind. Because humans are all to get it, as it is achieved by realizing the complete excellence of the soul. As a goal, happiness is the greatest in all human life, as it means itself is a purpose and humans do not use it as a means for other purposes. This is not a conditional happiness that Aristotle admires, but rather a contemporary definition of happiness. Practical training
