In the modern world, scholars are still often the ones who study Taoism. However, rather than experiencing life…-

Tuning In
The chapter "Tuning In" delves into the idea that creativity is not an isolated human endeavor but a universal force that permeates all aspects of existence. Just as rivers carve landscapes and trees sprout leaves in accordance with nature’s cycles, human beings create in alignment with an unseen, yet omnipresent, creative energy. The text suggests that this energy, often perceived as inspiration, is not something individuals generate on their own but something they tune into—much like radio antennas…-

Chapter III begins by investigating how perception evolves from raw experience into structured thought, revealing a spectrum that moves from the immediacy of sensation to constructed concepts. Henri Bergson does not view experience as static or neatly divided; instead, he explains that what we often call facts are not final, but moments within a continuum. Each moment serves both as a foundation for what follows and as a result of what preceded. This flow creates a layered understanding of reality, where…-
