Without a stable axis, it is easy to get lost in the maze of complexity; without a bridge, easy to get stuck in the realm of superficiality that we have in the world today. Philosophy offers a paradigm shift beyond just an alternative perspective, in a journey that leads us past the confines of dogma, whether scientific or religious, it helps to connect to the essence of things as they are meant to be.

Through the philosophical lens, science fundamentally is more than mere reason; it embodies a sincere pursuit for truth, an endeavour to understand the intricacies of life. Art whether manifested in music, painting or any other form, becomes a conduit for our inward journey. It can help unveil our layers and facilitate an exploration of our true identity, allowing us to imagine our potential and strive towards its realization.

To deal with the separation we see today, we need to glimpse the oneness of life. Philosophy is the way to discover the unbreakable connection between the individual and the collective whole. It provides us a compass on how we can lead a more harmonious life 3 more in tune with ourselves, with society, and consequently with life at large.

With the celebrations of World Philosophy Day this past November, and as we transition from winter towards spring, a timeless odyssey beckons us to Discover, Awaken, Transform.
