What do you think? Number 8

What an amazingly eclectic blog you're creating. We've had quotes from an American singer/songwriter, British and French writers, an American psychologist, a Chilean dictator and now, courtesy of Naoto, an Austrian philosopher.
Naoto's quote is from Ludwig Wittgenstein, one of the most influential philosophers of the 20th century.
"Physiological life is of course not ‘Life’.
And neither is psychological life.
Life is the world."
Naoto's comment was -
I don’t know the true meaning of what he tried to say.
I think this quotation can be very controversial and can be understood from many kinds of points of view. From this quotation, I felt that we, who live in modern civilization, are seeing the human and life through many filters. They are science, psychology, and many things. He denied to see from these filters and tried to see as life being. In my opinion, the phrase,” Life is the world”, has two meanings.
1. The world is a part of life. We are not the only living things. Of course animals and plants. Also the earth and galaxies and this universe live.
2.The world and us are not two independent things. They are connected.
