Episode 11: Art

This week we put the ‘art’ in ‘Heart’ as we go into the process of creation, creativity, and self expression. But what is art? Is it a process, or just an outcome? What are the underlying daoist principles of art, and what role does art play in traditional Chinese medicine? What is the art of healing and health? 

In this episode, Jost and Leon go on a journey of self discovery and self reflection. They talk about the distinction between knowledge of self (the inner world) vs knowledge of selfie (the outer world), and how focusing on the latter leads to copying and templating instead of true creation. They also discuss the shamans, peacocks, how to rise above low vibration of earth and increase our frequencies, and how to deal with a combative goldfish.

Jost talks about how we must carve ourselves out using our own internal design process, so that others don’t do it for us, how to not give in to the power of others, and how simplification and unification are critical in the art of healing. Leon talks about Le Corbusier and the Bauhaus, the similarities and differences between design and art, functionality vs practicality, and what samurai armour and a Toyota Camry have in common. (Hint: it’s not much).

Jost and Leon also discuss how the artistic process can take us into ourselves, help us get back to the starting point, and return us to destiny. Home is where the art is.
