Nature has never lost being. Humanity has temporarily lost the nature of being. — But in the end, how should you lose something that you always are?
University of Vienna - Institute for Cultural & Social Anthropology
Why was Ernst Merkinger walking from Vienna to Marrakesh? Why is long-distance-hiking kind of conscious activism, an important piece of dealing with climate crisis & a reminder for human being’s qualities? Why does humanity not necessarily need more scientific knowledge, instead more time in nature? Ernst is sharing his recognitions that he has been experiencing through being and hiking in nature.
"Tao Te Ching - Lao Tzu"
Read by Joel Friedman
The deep & rich tones of the didgeridoo, combined with the passion conveyed by Joel Friedman in this audiobook, make it a joy to listen to. It offers a great opportunity to experience the "Tao Te Ching" for the first time or to rediscover it again.
Ernst Merkinger
Long Distance Hiker; Friend of a Good Life; Writer
My interest in meditation, being in nature, inspiring dialogues, writing, and creative projects has been with me since my youth.
Through my journey on foot from Vienna to Marrakech in 2017, I became a "long-distance hiker" professionally and, step by step, a friend of philosophy and of a good life.
Impressive tours (Alpe-Adria Trail, Lechweg, Dolomite High Route, Adlerweg, etc.), unique stories from real originals that I’ve met as a long-distance hiker and digital nomad (Auckland, Bern, Copenhagen, etc.) have left a lasting inspiration.
