Abstract

The text discusses the search for wisdom in philosophy and how symbols and metaphors seem to be more expressive than written language when it comes to describing certain realities. It questions the modern view of humanity and the value of metaphysics. Additionally, it mentions how therapies like yoga and meditation aim to recover practices for self-knowledge. Finally, it highlights the concept of the "great conversation" as a continuous dialogue that fosters the formation of a large community and keeps alive the pursuit of wisdom and the infinite.
