“We in the richest societies have too many calories even as we starve for beautiful, fresh food; we have overly large houses but lack spaces that truly embody our individuality and connectedness; media surround us everywhere while we starve for authentic communication. We are offered entertainment every second of the day but lack the chance to play. In the ubiquitous world of money, we hunger for all that is intimate, personal and unique.” WorldPhilosophyPlayWisdomMotivationalBeautifulHouseChanceSpaceMediaCommunicationUniqueHungerIndividualityEntertainmentIntimateSurroundCaloriesEvery SecondConnectednessFresh Food Author:Charles Eisenstein
“It is actually a nice question how far Descartes himself endorses the monological and metaphysically dualistic theory of mind associated with his name and his legacy in early modern philosophy. But Fichte does reject this tradition, by suggesting that an immaterial thinking substance is an incoherent notion, and a rational being whose rationality was not developed through communication with others is a transcendental impossibility.” ThinkingMindDoePhilosophyNamesNiceModernTheoryCommunicationTraditionNotionRationalLegacySubstanceRejectsRationalityImpossibilitySuggestingTranscendentalModern Philosophy Author:Allen W.
