What is Contemplative Philosophy?
Contemplative Philosophy is rooted in the idea that philosophy is not just an intellectual pursuit, but an embodied practice that we engage with in our day to day lives. Drawing on both Western and Eastern philosophical traditions, it offers profound insights into the human condition and provides practical tools for self-reflection, personal growth, and inner transformation.
