Intermezzo 1: truth does not exist
1. as direct observation does not exist because people always use concepts to describe reality…
2. as these concepts derive their meaning from metaphor…
3. as half of these metaphors are embodied in our brain and cannot be shut off or altered…
4. as the choice of the other half is too large extent arbitrary…
…we will never be able to perfectly describe and understand reality and ego, truth (defined as correspondence with reality) does not exist.

Western and Eastern views on knowledge
Dominant view in the West
• Knowledge as a thing that can be controlled and manipulated
• Knowledge as information that can be codified, stored, accessed and used
• Knowledge as resource that can be created, stored, shared, located, or moved, and that is part of the input-throughput-output system of the organization
• Knowledge as capital that can be valued, capitalized and measured; that is part of the financial flow and requires an return on investment
Dominant view in the East
• Knowledge as spirit and wisdom
• Knowledge as unfolding truth
• Unity of universe and human self
• Unity of knowledge and action
• Knowledge as illumination or enlightenment of an underlying, deeper reality
• Knowledge as essence-less and nothingness (Japan)
• Knowledge creation as a continuous, self-transcending process

Intermezzo 2: problems don't exist
• Problems are not phenomena waiting out there in reality to be observed.
• A problem is a gap between an existing and a preferred situation (Ist and Soll).
• Both the perception of the existing as the perception of the preferred situation depends on how you prefer to look at it
• Ergo, a problem is by definition subjective.
• "a problem is an interpretation of a feeling of discomfort“ (J. Kessels)
