Hi @Taraz, thanks for this article and your other articles as well. This is the second time this week that the following quote from Castaneda's Don Juan comes to mind:
This question is one that only a very old man asks. Does this path have a heart? All paths are the same: they lead nowhere. They are paths going through the bush, or into the bush. In my own life I could say I have traversed long long paths, but I am not anywhere. Does this path have a heart? If it does, the path is good; if it doesn't, it is of no use. Both paths lead nowhere; but one has a heart, the other doesn't. One makes for a joyful journey; as long as you follow it, you are one with it. The other will make you curse your life. One makes you strong; the other weakens you.
Recently, I wrote an article: https://steemit.com/philosophy/@contemplate/integrative-philosophy-introduction Would you say that Principle 3b resonates with a number of your recent articles?
