Paper Title: BARUCH SPINOZA: THE LONELY PHILOSOPHER
Authors Name: Prof. Dr. G. N.SHARMA

Abstract: A widely used method with an intention to apply axiomatic principles in philosophical theories is referred to the Geometrical Method in philosophy. Spinoza’s name is always reckoned as the foremost one, in the list of the prominent exponents of this method. It is something quite close to Euclid’s geometry involving introduction of the terms with proper definitions and axioms before extending it to logical conclusions. This might seem to be an unusual outlook in philosophy, but for Spinoza it was the major aim to understand sectionally the Universe and then connecting the sections internally. All knowledge which is necessary and presentable, needs the assistance of the Geometrical Method because it is scientific and demonstratable. The main features have been clarity and obviousness, which can be seen when the postulates of a theory are announced. There have been varied opinions and that too totally with a contrast, regarding Spinoza’s position and viewpoints in philosophy. As it goes on record, some considered him to be an atheist in temperament while others thought all his efforts were deliberately directed towards Pantheism. Due to the latter opinion he was even labelled as “God- intoxicated”. It was so because on one hand on the strict parameter of Orthodoxy or adhering to Theological principles, he could not qualify to be conventionally religious. On the other hand his deviating from the Christian outlook of personal God also created doubts regarding his intentions. But then he also vehemently holds on to the concept of God right from the beginning to the end and also insists on only the exclusively worthy ideas of religion. Therefore, in this paper there would be an attempt to place the facts and Spinoza’s clear viewpoints referring to some of his major works. In other words, it could be observed as a simplified version of Spinoza’s philosophy in general, to bring forth what he really struggled to accomplish as a renowned philosopher.
