The Spectrum of Curiosity: Shallow vs Deep Curiosity

Curiosity can be categorized into shallow and deep curiosity. Shallow curiosity is about attaining or extracting information, while deep curiosity involves going beneath the surface and asking powerful questions that reveal more about a person. Shallow curiosity focuses on simple questions like 'What's your name?', while deep curiosity seeks to understand the story behind a person's name or the deeper meaning of concepts like home or work. Deep curiosity fosters connection and transformation.
