Truly thinking about knowledge provokes interesting reflection. When asked to think about knowledge, most individuals only care about what they know, such as certain topics, theories, or facts. Overall, this way of thinking seems small, even superficial. As human beings, we don't always think about how we come to know what we know. We often place knowledge acquisition at the bottom of a taxonomy of importance. Too often, people take knowledge and its power for granted. However, individuals like René Descartes and his work The Meditations offer an in-depth exploration of knowledge and all its facets. For every individual or researcher, this work is very important in that it leads the reader to consider what we assume to be truth and to consider an undoubted foundation of knowledge. The aim of this article is to consider the role of knowledge in epistemology, to expound the concept of an indubitable foundation for all knowledge and the overall influence of Descartes on the impending inquiries. First, I demonstrate that epistemology is the study of all that encompasses knowledge. Furthermore, I support the traditional epistemological concept of justified true belief by arguing that this model is widely used within the expectations of current empirical data. Second, I examine Descartes' intentions, method, and product, The Meditations. Following this review, I assert that it is impossible to find a true foundation for knowledge due to the unknown origin of human creation, the element of subjectivity and solipsism and the limits of knowledge being unquestionable . Furthermore, I critically assess that the Cartesian circle and Descartes' presumption that God is in the middle of the paper......are particularly thoughtful but are not without flaws and criticism. As noted, his aim and ambition are admirable in that he has sought to sustain what his previous achievements, and those of many others, were based on. Whether or not scholars, students, or simply individuals interested in philosophy agree with Descartes' meditations, one thing that I think is really beneficial about Descartes' work is that doubt can be very valuable in our daily life. Too often, individuals take these facets of news, gossip, literature, and theory too seriously and fail to see the implications of unquestionably trusting what we accept as individuals.
