Gathatoulie

And of these shall I speak to those eager, That quality of wisdom that all the wise wish And call creative qualities And good creation of the mind The all-powerful truth Truly and that more & better ways are discovered Towards perfection --Zarathustra.

the space in between seeing and acting

«In attempting to explain the formation and working of the historical
world, Nishida coined the term "action-oriented intuition" (kōi-teki
chokkan). His texts suggest a reciprocity between action and intution,
so that we could also speak of "intuition-oriented action" or simply
of "action-intution" [...] Here again Nishida sought to discover the
topos or common space that underlies a distinction, this time between
intuition or seeing as a more or less passive reception of the world
and its objects, and action as the human-engendered production of the
world.» --http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/nishida-kitaro/
