The ancient Greek concept of four basic elements, these being earth (γῆ gê), water (ὕδωρ hýdōr), air (ἀήρ aḗr), and fire (πῦρ pŷr), dates from pre-Socratic times and persisted throughout the Middle Ages and into the Early modern period, deeply influencing Europeanthought and culture.
Hinduism
The system of five elements are found in Vedas, especially Ayurveda, the pancha mahabhuta, or "five great elements", of Hinduismare: 1. bhūmi or pṛthvī (earth), 2. āpas or jala (water), 3. agní or tejas (fire), 4. vāyu, vyāna, or vāta (air or wind) 5. ākāśa, vyom, or śūnya (space or zero) or (aether or void). They further suggest that all of creation, including the human body, is made of these five essential elements and that upon death, the human body dissolves into these five elements of na...
Buddhism
Buddhism has had a variety of thought about the five elements and their existence and relevance, some of which continue to this day. In the Pali literature, the mahabhuta ("great elements") or catudhatu ("four elements") are earth, water, fire and air. In early Buddhism, the four elements are a basis for understanding suffering and for liberating oneself from suffering. The earliest Buddhist textsexplain that the four primary material elements are solidity, fluidity, temperature, and mobility...
Jainism
Jain beliefs classify the types of beings souls can be reborn into as a result of their karma by their senses, which includes one-sensed beings who only have the sense of touch, considered to be the souls of the elements water, earth, air, fire and also plant.These one-sensed beings are sometimes collectively referred to under the name ekendriya jīva, farther subdivided into pṛthvīkāya (spirits of earth), apakāya (spirits of water), teukāya (spirits of fire), vāyukāya (spirits of wind/air) an...
Angola
In traditional Bakongo religion, the five elements are incorporated into the Kongo cosmogram. This sacred symbol also depicts the physical world (Nseke), the spiritual world of the ancestors (Mpémba), the Kalûnga line that runs between the two worlds, the circular void that originally formed the two worlds (mbûngi), and the path of the sun. Each element correlates to a period in the life cycle, which the Bakongo people also equate to the four cardinal directions. According to their cosmology,...
Mali
In traditional Bambara spirituality, the Supreme Godcreated four additional essences of himself during creation. Together, these five essences of the deity correlate with the five classical elements. 1. Koni is the thought and void (aether). 2. Bemba (also called Pemba) is the god of the sky and air. 3. Nyale (also called Koroni Koundyé) is the goddess of fire. 4. Faro is the androgynous god of water. 5. Ndomadyiri is the god and master of the earth.
Alchemy
The elemental system used in medieval alchemy was developed primarily by the anonymous authors of the Arabic works attributed to Pseudo Apollonius of Tyana. This system consisted of the four classical elements of air, earth, fire, and water, in addition to a new theory called the sulphur-mercury theory of metals, which was based on two elements: sulphur, characterizing the principle of combustibility, "the stone which burns"; and mercury, characterizing the principle of metallic properties. T...
Japan
Japanese traditions use a set of elements called the 五大 (godai, literally "five great"). These five are earth, water, fire, wind/air, and void. These came from Indian Vastu shastra philosophy and Buddhist beliefs; in addition, the classical Chinese elements (五行, wu xing) are also prominent in Japanese culture, especially to the influential Neo-Confucianists during the medieval Edo period. 1. Earthrepresented rocks and stability. 2. Waterrepresented fluidity and adaptability. 3. Firerepresente...
Medieval Aristotelian philosophy
The Islamic philosophers al-Kindi, Avicenna and Fakhr al-Din al-Razi followed Aristotlein connecting the four elements with the four natures heat and cold (the active force), and dryness and moisture (the recipients).
Chemical element
The Aristotelian tradition and medieval alchemy eventually gave rise to modern chemistry, scientific theories and new taxonomies. By the time of Antoine Lavoisier, for example, a list of elements would no longer refer to classical elements. Some modern scientists see a parallel between the classical elements and the four states of matter: solid, liquid, gas and weakly ionized plasma. Modern science recognizes classes of elementary particles which have no substructure (or rather, particles tha...
Western astrology
Western astrology uses the four classical elements in connection with astrological charts and horoscopes. The twelve signs of the zodiac are divided into the four elements: Fire signs are Aries, Leo and Sagittarius, Earth signs are Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn, Air signs are Gemini, Libra and Aquarius, and Water signsare Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces.
Criticism
The Dutch historian of science Eduard Jan Dijksterhuis writes that the theory of the classical elements "was bound to exercise a really harmful influence. As is now clear, Aristotle, by adopting this theory as the basis of his interpretation of nature and by never losing faith in it, took a course which promised few opportunities and many dangers for science." Bertrand Russellsays that Aristotle's thinking became imbued with almost biblical authority in later centuries. So much so that "Ever...
