Listen "Wisdom of The Fool"
Episode Synopsis
In the Tarot, the Fool is the card with the number 0, indicating the start of the soul's journey. The Fool is at odds with the modern world with its desire to appear smart, sophisticated, and like an expert. The Fool, by contrast, embodies Suzuki's ideal of the "beginners' mind" or Socrates' admission that "I know that I know nothing."
In this discussion, I look at why we should embrace The Fool, but also other archetypes. The openness of The Fool doesn't have to mean ignorance but can be. balanced with knowledge and other virtues.
