| Abstract | ||
| If we follow the history of human thought in general, and the philosophical one in particular, we will see that the philosophers tend to explore subjects related to sense and mutual cognition powers, conscience, mind critique, and self meditation more than the body issues. Hence, the body fell into a strict monotony that goes against its powers. This monotony sometimes sides with the sense and other times with the self and spirit. Some serious attempts have been made, however, to break this monotony which set the ground for theoretical framework of scientific progress are witness today. This research tries to send the light on the most significant attempts that left a great impact on the development of philosophical thought. The German philosopher Nietzsche is an example of these attempts, he criticized strongly mind philosophy in his Endeavour to regain the stolen prestige of the body due to mind authority that tried to devalue and paralyze its powers. Nietzsche view the products of mind such as the principles and values as being only delusions and lies that restricted human thought. This means that Nietzsche tries to demolish one of the most important and developed tools of philosophy. The aim behind this is to present the body in its unconscious dimension as an alternative mean to the mind that uses the available tools to realize happiness through satisfying needs. Body is more sublime because it is closely linked with life and its vivid values. Body after the exclusion of mind authority, is the only component that can understand and interpret the human phenomenon. Conscience is but a symbolic language of the body. Humanity does not depend on the mind or follow its representations, the thins at have achieved is ascribed to the instinctive side of the human. To free the body from the mind's authority is to free the affective powers in the body. These powers lies in the flow of unconscious intuitions that represents together the will of power. For Nietzsche the will of power is the sum of these instincts in the body which are free from errors and have the capacity and wisdom to formulate a new system of sublime values that promote and honour the humanity more and more. | ||
