Thinking of Kantian philosophy, then, I ask him to reveal to me his personal categorical imperative, and it is here that it comes full circle for me, because Götsch speaks to me precisely of respect: «Mine? Well, look, this fits from day to day in all situations: “Act in a way that the principle submitted to your interactions can also be applied to yourself,” which is, as you said, a categorical imperative. And I really act in this way. And if you do that, it gives you a completely different sensation and different relation to all, to all your environment, to plants, to animals, to other human beings. You will act in a different way. And in fact, this categorical imperative, the socalled Golden Rule, is indirectly part of many old religions, Buddhism, Taoism, also the Muslims have it as part of their own creed. It’s part of the most authentic human behavior, to allow us as human species to remain on this planet. It's not something complicated, it doesn’t require you to have a sophisticated education. It's only about feeling». www.agendagotsch.com
