The Compendium on the Soul by Ibn Sina

What’s This Podcast
About?

Ibn Sina, the great philosopher and physician, begins this work by addressing a universal need: the desire to understand the soul. He acknowledges that while human curiosity has long driven us to explore everything from the stars to the human body, there’s still a sense of awe and mystery when it comes to the soul itself. How do we explain something that can’t be seen, touched, or measured, but is at the core of what makes us alive? In this compendium, Ibn Sina ventures into the unknown, aiming to lay out a clear path for understanding the soul’s faculties.
