The Value and Meaning of Poop in Ki Philosophy

ABSTRACT

several thousand years ago in the East asia, ki has been used as a concept to explain the change in all things, encompassing nature and society, matter and spirit. This thesis is a study to prepare a humanistic theoretical basis for the circulation and value establishment of poop in Science Walden s ‘feces Standard Money’ research project. In particular, this thesis discusses the value and meaning of poop, focusing on the philosophy of Hwadam Seo Gyeong-deok. The first thought that the ‘feces Standard Money’ project can be obtained from the Ki philosophy is cyclical thinking. In particular, Zhuang-tzu, Jang-jae, and Seo Hwa-dam explained the change of all things as gathered and scattered, all beings could not escape from the great cycle. Second, the point of preview of Ki philosophy is the perspective of equality in all things. By relativizing everything, Zhuang-tzu drew on the idea that all things are equal. Jang-jae also developed the idea that all things are equal in that all things are made of qi and the cycle repeats the cycle through the extraction of qi. And Seo Kyung-duk expanded such thinking and moved on to practice in reality. Third, Ki philosophy enables a change in the perception that poop is dirty, and based on this, draws out the unity of all things. The idea of ​​Zhuang-tzu and Jang-jae that all things are one, and the idea that the order of Qi is reduced to the order of numbers and the order of numbers is reduced to the order of sound, and is the story of Seo Kyung-deok, who dreamed of a world of dialogue and harmony in harmony with nature. All thoughts make such a transformation of perception possible. If the ‘feces Standard Money’ project aims to solve problems such as income inequality, human alienation, generational conflict, and educational gap according to grades and degrees in modern society, then based on this thinking, the separation of human to human and human to nature is It should be possible to change to a worldview of sympathy and communication, which is not a struggle, but a feeling of empathy and communication.
