Deep dives
Understanding the Meaning Crisis
The modern world is facing a meaning crisis characterized by disconnection from nature, addiction to technology, and a distrust in traditional education systems. The prevalent model of education, derived from a Prussian military framework, focuses on producing obedient workers rather than fostering critical thinking and creativity. This system has instilled in individuals a narrow worldview, making them feel powerless and leading to dissatisfaction with their lives. As a result, many people now question their purpose and the validity of a life driven solely by job security and status.
