Abstract

Thesis theme is created in the philosophy of counseling theory to become a new way, the special area for discussion on love, so love this consultation should be defined as "part of love's philosophical counseling." Its based on the use of ancient aging hope臘wisdom - from Parkinson pull chart love to sub-km Aristotle's love, through love and affection to focus and reflect upon its meaning why, so I then think about what this ethics learning orientation in Love consultative capability of providing information or stance. This way not only in philosophical counseling in the theoretical deepening of life, and to special problems in love, after love, think about whether their behavior has its moral foundation, and this paper's stance is convenient km Aristotle Asian style. But not specifically to the fraternity and its sub-km Aristotle University of the overall context of ethics proceeding, hoping in this regard on the basis of the philosophy of love to give a new face counseling. Beginning of this article from the "philosophical counseling is What?" Speaking out, and then they "love and friendship to explore What?", "Sub-km Aristotle how to locate friendly German conduct its ethics study of the relationship?", "Love and friendship can help philosophical counseling? "and other issues, and philosophical counseling as a tentative basis and method for the construction of such a study is not just a theory of the card regardless, but Lok is more concern for life, and thus perspective as a theoretical sub-km Aristotle should be re-emphasis in the contemporary appeal. The theme of this paper is based on the theory of philosophical counseling as a new methodology and meant to discuss specifically the counseling on love; therefore, love counseling should be here defined as "philosophical counseling on love." The ground for such counseling is the application of ancient Greek wisdom-from the Platonic love to the Aristotelian friendship. Through the dual emphasis on love and friendship as well as the consideration of their immanence, one begins to think about whether such an ethical approach is capable of providing significant information or strong positions on love counseling. Such a method is not only to imprint the theories of philosophical counseling in everyday life but also to consider, with all the problems about love, whether there are foundations of virtue for love. This paper is taking the Aristotelian position, approaching this topic from the specific perspective of Aristotelian friendship and it's entire ethical context in wishes to renew the look of philosophical counseling on love. This article starts with the question: What is philosophical counseling? Then we proceed with the following questions: What are love and friendship about? How did Aristotle define the relationship between the virtue of friendship and it's ethics? How do love and friendship help with philosophical counseling? These agenda are regarded as an experimental construction of love and friendship as the ground and method of philosophical counseling. Such an inquiry is not simply a theoretical argument but something that should be realized in dimension of everyday life, so as to make an appeal that Aristotle 'theories should be appreciated again in the contemporary days
