As explained by the social philosopher Folami, reason governed emotions. However would many oppose such rational thinking in exchange for letting ones emotion take place, a man almost alone in his scriptures was Ekene. This scholar was taught in argumentative philosophy but often wrote in the field of social philosophy which was the more common of the two. Ekeneโs response can be found summarized in the book Great Tinkonian Philosophers of 1300-1400s (16-1700 CE),
As said in the fragmented remains, reasoned governed feelings and thus had a set of rules or laws. These per se governed what the human would and could do, thus making the human conform to whatever natural laws there be. But how come such atrocities occurred during the war? How come feelings interacts with ones actions? The answer is that emotion guides and acts as metamorphosis for what reason we believe to be stable and unchanging.
It is said that love is the acknowledgement of feeling towards another, however it is also said to be governed by the internal reasoning of your belief that the loved one able to spend endless time with. Is it not that emotion is the main drive here? What other cause would force you to reason other than the emotion sparking the act. Where the emotion is attributed to attraction it too must be attributed as the driving force of reason. No deeper than the void itself one will find the emotion yet governing ones reasoning for ever entering it.
Emotion brings grief and jubilations beyond measure, and thus the avoidance and governing of the invisible hand of destiny cannot simply be dumbfounded by any living being. Hence whenever I open my door each morning I will look towards the kitchen and go there not because of the reasoning of me starving but simply because of the rumbling which occurs in my belly. I am hungry therefore I eat. Then I go to the outhouse, not because of the fear of dying from constipation but because it would attribute a great relief to my body who in return applauds my action with gratitude. Not to seem shallow nor to be restricting we will venture from my home outside where the public emotion enacts, in which I can simply say my actions are taken from my emotions. Arguably rainy weather is the base for many grievances and the reason why many act negatively, and thus is one main reason to why bargains become increasingly dull between the two who today try to settle on paper (contracts) rather than coin. When at the bazaar, and the peasants agitated for the time it takes for the vendor to correctly weight the goods to take the right price, would reason and the rights withheld to it not compel the peasant to bide his time? The public emotion is driven by that which is emotion and not by reason in which more logical outcomes should ensue but does not.
The supposed dualism between emotion and reason is therefore not ideal nor is it possible. The try to rationalize and charter emotion into laws, rights and reason too acts against itself in the manor of one being irrational and unpredictable in contrast to that of the organized and logical patterns of reason.
Thus emotion influence our actions and too does emotion act as a metamorphosis for reason.โ
