BeeNow podcast, Episode 55
My name is Feng Yuan (or Vincent). You will hear my childhood in the podcast – the story is a version I can offer now any way. The past is still diverging like poetry, which is the plaza where everything intertwines. Philosophy, spirituality, time and space, love and hatred, a million possibilities. I’ve learned to play the game and to be played by the game of the poetic. It’s this infinity that has nurtured me to be not my true self, but millions more. And It’s my pleasure to share the thrill with you.
In this episode, Vincent and I explore the connection between poetry and spirituality. Vincent says the present is like a sword used to cut through the mind. He shares his childhood influences growing up and the impact that family life had on him. He talks about is inspirations with Buddhism, poetry, and philosophy and the struggles of modern life in finding and losing one self. We talk about being bullied, the meaning of freedom, the function of poetry, the need for creativity, what it means to be independent, and the difference between good pressure and bad pressure.
