Amazing paradigm … brilliant answer to T S Eliot’s profound questions —
Where is the life we have lost in living?
Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge?
Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?”
You have offered a perfect, operational answer-in-progress:
You fix it one person at a time.
I like how Sarah McCarry sums It up:
Our work now is to live as though we already inhabit the world we are waiting for.
Our work now is to attend to the suffering of other beings, and to attend to the suffering within ourselves, so that we do not inflict it on those around us.
Our work now: We know it. None of us are free until all of us are free.
Thank you. Your work is very important. The "explainers" or bridge to the intellectuals or the highly valued before-orientation are very much needed now. Through my experiences, I have morphed so much over the years, into the feeling-knowing orientation, that I find my body instrument/voice can't translate anymore. It becomes more like demonstration, validation, encouragement to those who have the capacity to directly absorb/receive the data constantly being broadcast, in the way the body instrument was originally designed.
For years as a mentor in business and teaching life skills to men coming back into society out of prisons, I used the Hebrew concept called Chazown. Which is the intersection of the Venn diagram of three circles: core values, personal experience, and personal spiritual gifts. Finding one’s Chazown is similar to your well written article.
If information worked, I would be in a much different place in my life. I have multiple degrees and more certifications than I know what to do with. My life didn't change until the story did.
I think the problem is not being informed — it’s becoming cognitively flooded without integration.
People are consuming extraordinary amounts of information while becoming increasingly anxious, fragmented, reactive, and disconnected from lived experience.
Knowledge only becomes wisdom once it passes through the body, relationships, silence, failure, grief, beauty, and actual living.
Otherwise we risk mistaking endless analysis for understanding.
I find well-informed people are always well informed about other people's thoughts.
Fantastic and true to the core. Thank Doc.
🙏🏽 appreciate you

Sounds a lot like what I call essentia

I don’t think it’s new, it’s just becoming more obvious.
And I wonder if the “stories we run on” are finding better ways to reinforce themselves.
It's also this...
