Description
Can poetry be taught? How can we teach and learn a poetic way of being in the world with respect to all Creation? Is poetry our natural wisdom? Lao Tzu (571-531 BC), an ancient Chinese sage, teacher, historiographer, and poet says that poetic wisdom is a subtle essence of the universe and a virtuous treasure of cultural simplicity. This mini-book/zine invites you, the reader, to learn about Tao from high school students and their unique poetic visions and voices. In this context, poetry inspires all of us to perceive, understand, and experience the subtle nature of the Universe. We begin to re-imagine education as a cultural story, in which learning and teaching processes are the subtle pathways of unrestricted cognition without any dogmas of modern discourses. —————————— Proceeds from this zine benefit animal welfare nonprofit organizations worldwide Full Colour.
