As should be clear
by now, the central premise at the heart of this blog is the unity of body and
mind, and resulting from that, the equation that movement is life. In our
culture however, the mind-body split is still deeply rooted. (Ironically, of
course this very concept of a mind-body split is itself embodied within the
human organism, but that's for another day.) Therefore, most philosophical
notions that originate from a body-mind unity will differ from classical
Western philosophical notions and also from Western 'common sense.' Today, I
want to take a short look at the term of freedom and how it may relate itself
to an embodied existence.
