In “El Té de los Locos”, Ramiro Calle, Javier García Campayo, Roberto Whyte and Alejandro Guerra join in a fascinating conversation to address some of the deepest and biggest existential questions. This talk transcends the realm of philosophy to touch on psychological and spiritual issues that are not often discussed.
The three big questions humanity is asking itself
One of the main issues addressed in the conversation is the question of three fundamental questions: where do we come from, who are we and where are we going?
Philosophers and thinkers have always asked these questions but, as the talk says, life is an enigma that does not come with a nut needed to understand it. Throughout the talk, each forum member reflects on these questions and highlights how complex their perception and our interpretation of it is.
Perception versus reality
On this, Calle points out that our perception is, in many cases, an interpretation made by our mind. Despite this, we take our perceptions as absolute truths, which can even lead to violence because of our beliefs. This point is especially relevant in this era, when most opinions about reality are polarized.
The question who am I?
“Who am I, what for, where do I come from or where am I going,” Guerra abbreviates. Then, he adds, “In the end, the truth is that an individual on his deathbed only cares about who he is.” Guerra concludes that, therefore, the main thing is to reflect on who you are today, both in the past and in the future.
Final thoughts
In conversation, they emphasize: “Life is the most important thing”. And not in as obvious a sense as it seems. The point is that, on a broader scale, smaller things like success, money and material achievements cease to exist and no longer make sense when you look at things in this way.
Conclusion
“El Té de los Locos” allows one to reflect on fundamental questions of human existence, just like many of our other philosophical talks. From the knowledge shared by Ramiro Calle, Javier García Campayo, Roberto Whyte and Alejandro Guerra, one can find inspiration to unravel one’s own answers to three big questions. However, this discussion goes far beyond a philosophical journey; as one, it invites to a more conscious and authentic life.
