------ *Hello friends, how are you all doing today? I hope all is well and you all are having a nice and wonderful day. Today, I will be taking part in the Incredible India monthly contest, which is titled* ***"A Way to Overcome Prejudication!"*** ------ |

How does one perceive the term "prejudication"? Is it regarded as a curse or as a blessing?

| | ------ | --------- *The term "prejudication," also known as "prejudgment," can be best described as the process of giving a judgment or forming an opinion about something before having all the facts.* ----- *So, back to the question: Is prejudication regarded as a curse or a blessing? Well, it depends. Based on the meaning and definition of the word, I don't think that the word is in any sense related to either being a curse or being a blessing.* ----- *In the right sense, prejudgment or prejudication simply means jumping to conclusions without seeking out facts to support the reasons for such beliefs.* ------ |

Do you believe that the term in question is associated with the concept of unconsciousness? Please provide a rationale to support your reasoning.

| | ------ | --------- _Philosophically, it is believed that when an idea is presented, various approaches are taken to validate it, and some of those approaches are:_ ------ * Daring * Analytical * Rational * Empirical ----- ![32434.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmSyASg4uD6CyhHNQWXPb92XjmsJU2XvHe37NGJuAMWkum/32434.jpg) ^{Picture source}

------ |

Daring

| | ------ | --------- Now, the above terms are very important in validating an idea. For instance, "daring" is the act of challenging and confronting an idea to bring out facts. ------ |

Analytical

| | ------ | --------- "Analytical," in this case, requires giving a critical analysis to such an idea to enhance better understanding and, at the same time, to bring out facts and truth. ------ |

Rational

| | ------ | --------- "Rational," philosophically, the term "rational" involves the reason for a particular thing because once you understand the reasons, you can manage the outcome. ------ |

Empirical

| | ------ | --------- "Empirical" is the idea in philosophy that deals with concrete evidence. Therefore, any given idea or knowledge is true based on critical analysis and a better understanding of the reasons as well as the evidence. ------ ***NOTE*** >^{***So, therefore, in this case, the term "prejudication," if my definition was correct, has nothing to do with unconsciousness, because an unconscious mind is a mind that is not even aware of its environment. Take a drunk or a mad person, for example.***} ----- *Rather I think the correct word to use there should be "ignorant", then now the question would have been* ***"Do you believe that the term in question is associated with the concept of ignorance?"*** ----- *Then I would have said yes, because a person who prejudges something, an event, or an idea is clearly ignorant about that particular thing, which is to say that he or she is unaware of the situation and thus makes a predictive conclusion in his favor.* ----- ![32437.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmU9dEM7piUGTkkUx9J81gMveJyzKxuo8FNK45dek8nEES/32437.jpg) ^{Picture source}

In what ways can we contribute to the education of individuals regarding the concept of prejudication? Please share your insights.

| | ------ | --------- *The only way we can contribute to the education of the public regarding the concept of prejudgment or prejudication is by having a knowledge of philosophy. We all know that the short definition for philosophy is* ***"Love for wisdom."*** *Knowledge of philosophy helps the mind to engage in critical thinking, which of course helps an individual to think outside the box in order to be aware of their environment and also solve the basic problems around them.* ------- *Epistemologically, the knowledge of philosophy helps, or should I say pushes, a person into constant curiosity, asking questions about an idea or knowledge as a whole. And once you ask questions, trust me, you will definitely find an answer, which is better than jumping to conclusions or assuming the results instead of seeking facts.* ----- ^{***This will be the end of my entry and I will like to invite*** @sduttaskitchen, @boishakhi123 & @ustazkarim} -----
