Episode #147 - Being and Becoming


Being and Becoming


The episode explores the debate between being and becoming, showing how philosophers like Heraclitus, Nietzsche, and Whitehead challenge fixed ideas of identity by emphasizing change and process. It critiques reductionist science and language, arguing for a view of reality as dynamic, interconnected, and always evolving.
