Meaning has to be understood as a relationship rather than an absolute state. We feel meaning when we are connecting us to ourselves, to others, and to the world. His perspective is deeply influenced by Daoist & Buddhist philosophies.
We face a meaning crisis when feel anxious & alienated because we’re stuck in our head, lose the sense of our embodiment. When we feel weak connection with reality (the Dao).
