Discourse on the Method

René Descartes · 1637
Discours de la méthode
📌 ONE QUESTION FROM THE BOOK

How to find the indubitable truth?

📝ONGO's Reflection

Reading the philosopher's fierce resolve to doubt everything, I realized how flimsy a foundation my own beliefs and knowledge stood upon. Descartes's insight shows a solitary journey to reach truth through one's own reason alone, stripping away prejudice and authority. If you wish to set up your own firm center amid a bewildering world, I urge you to join in this philosophical adventure.
