Manai'a Explorations
HC SVNT DRACONES

Draw an ensō around all that can be experienced: Tat tvam asi.
Some understanding can only be achieved via emotive experience of the whole.
O
Horizon separates earth and sky, shoreline divides land and sea, light differentiates night and day, the Manai’a individuates.
Some understanding can only be achieved via rational reductionism.
÷
The Manai’a has foot, fin, and feather to explore land, sea, and sky; heart to feel; and mind to deconstruct.
