BA: a knowledge-creating place
Knowledge needs a physical context for it to be created. As stated previously, knowledge is context-specific, as it depends on a particular time and space (Hayek, 1945). Knowledge does not just exist in one's cognition. Rather, it is created in situated action (Suchman, 1987). Therefore, the knowledge-creating process is necessarily context-specific in terms of time, space, and relationship with others. Knowledge cannot be created in a vacuum, and needs a place where information is given meaning through interpretation to become knowledge.
... we introduce the concept of "ba" (which roughly means "place"). Building on the concept that was originally proposed by the Japanese philosopher Kitaro Nishida (1921, 1970), we define ba as a shared context in motion, in which knowledge is shared, created, and untilized.
... knowledge as "a stream of meaning" emerges (Bohm, 1996). New knowledge is created from existing knowledge through the change of meanings and contexts. In this chapter, the conceptualization of ba is extended to cover the interdependent interaction between the agents and structures.
Although it is easier to consider ba as a physical space such as a meeting room, ba should be understood as 'Interactions' that occur at specific time and space. Ba can emerge in individuals, working groups, project teams, informal circles, temporary meetings, virtual spaces such as email groups, and at the front-line contact with the customer. Ba is an existential place where participants share their contexts and create new meanings through interactions. Participants of ba bring in their own contexts, and through interactions with others and the environment, the contexts of ba, participants, and the environment change (see Figure 4.3).

The Function of the Non-Existent
Thirty spokes unite in one nave and on that which is non-existent [on the hole in the nave] depends the wheel's utility. Clay is moulded into a vessel and on that which is non-existent [on its hollowness] depends the vessel's utility. By cutting out doors and windows we build a house and on that which is non-existent [on the empty space within depends the house's utility.
Therefore, existence renders actual but non-existence renders useful.
Goddard's Translation
The Value of Non-Existence
Although the wheel has thirty spokes its utility lies in the emptiness of the hub. The jar is made by kneading clay, but its usefulness consists in its capacity. A room is made by cutting out windows and doors through the walls, but the space the walls contain measures the room's value.
In the same way matter is necessary to form, but the value of reality lies in its immateriality.(Or thus: a material body is necessary to existence, but the value of a life is measured by its immaterial soul.)

Melinda French Gates took a MasterClass on relationships to prepare to date after divorce. Here are the key pieces of advice
written BY Alexa Mikhail
October 15, 2022 at 5:00 AM PDT
Updated November 11, 2022 at 7:38 AM PST
Melinda French Gates is discovering new ways to show up in a relationship.
After being vulnerable about how her public divorce, announced in May 2021, was “unbelievably painful in innumerable ways,” the philanthropist says she’s been thinking more deeply about the kinds of relationships she aspires to have in her future, both professionally and romantically. And to do that, she took a few notes from famed psychotherapist and author Esther Perel, sharing at Fortune’s Most Powerful Women Summit in California in October that she had just completed the relationship expert’s MasterClass on relational intelligence.
“One of the things [Perel] talks about is power,” French Gates said at the summit. “I both have a relationship with my former husband at work, and hopefully eventually I’ll have a relationship personally with somebody outside of work, but we have to think about power inside of a relationship and how do you share that and share that collaboratively.”
In her MasterClass, Perel underscores that power—“intrinsic in all relationships”—isn’t something you have to give away but rather is something you can share and build on together with a partner.
Here are some of the key takeaways from Perel’s class on how to create and maintain healthy relationships in every aspect of your life:
Establish shared power in a relationship
“The question always is, is it power ‘over’ or is it power ‘to,’” Perel says in her class, explaining that the latter can be “inviting,” “collaborative,” and “active.” Contrary to popular belief, we don’t fall into power positions in interpersonal relationships—and Perel challenges the idea that the breadwinner automatically holds the power. But what power can look like is the person who may have more resources at the moment making space for the other partner to spend more time caring for an aging parent, for example, or take a class they have always wanted to attend, which can help establish shared power and weaken a perceived power imbalance.
Once seen as fixed in interpersonal relationships, power instead is fluid and something worth negotiating, Perel says.
“The main question is not do I have power, but do I have agency?” says Perel in her class. “Can I take certain steps separately from what you are doing to me or to us?”
People have agency regardless of money, or being the decision-maker or assertive one. Power evolves, and once we understand how, it’s more clear that it can come from the bottom or the top whether it be at work or in personal relationships, Perel explains in her class.
Having power—or I suppose agency—serves as an opportunity to uplift a partner rather than assert dominance over them.
Take risks with a partner to build trust
Some people need to trust someone before ever taking a risk with a partner, but Perel says taking a risk may also help build that trust.
Try taking a “micro risk,” Perel suggests, by doing something novel in your relationship. It might look like sharing something new with a partner, and saying no or even saying yes to something you wouldn’t normally. This practice can help build trust over time and encourage more risk-taking behaviors.
Feeling the betrayal of trust breaking is a common human experience, but these “ruptures,” as Perel puts it, can be mended, like how a plate can shatter but get put back together even if the cracks make it look different. The plate’s iterations matter.
Understand your biases
Whether we like it or not, sometimes we assume someone will act a certain way, even betray us, before we really give them the chance to prove otherwise. Many people enter relationships with the expectations of what will be, and this can inhibit the ability to empathize, set boundaries, and understand one’s role with a partner. Combat this by being curious or asking questions to understand where someone else is coming from, Perel says in her class. If one partner grew up as an only child and the other as the oldest of four siblings, the roles assumed as an adult and in future relationships stem from fundamentally different perspectives. It’s the “context” that matters, Perel says.
Show up with self-awareness
It’s a fallacy to believe you walk into a new relationship with a clean slate—as much as we may wish to. Everything that we go through builds on itself to shape how we show up in a new relationship, and therefore, self-awareness is the first building block to developing relational intelligence.
Developing a self-awareness in the context of our so-called unofficial résumé—or relationship history—brings vulnerability to the forefront and paves the way for a more authentic connection.
“Whether you have had a focus that emphasizes autonomy and self-reliance, or whether you grew up with a focus that emphasizes loyalty and interdependence. That unofficial résumé is our story, and stories are what bind us to people. That’s the bridge,” Perel noted during the Fortune summit.
This type of reflection can broaden our perspective and make it easier to discern our strengths and weaknesses when we enter a relationship; the awareness can also help us let go of some of the “stories” or assumptions we tell about ourselves that have been constricting our ability to grow in a relationship.
Once viewed as subordinate to other foundational skills, emotional and relational intelligence now feels imperative to having success with others, especially in a world fundamentally changed by the technological landscape that can mask emotions in others that were once so easily observable.
And when French Gates was asked how cochairing a multibillion-dollar foundation with her ex-husband “is going” at the summit, she noted that her focus also lies in sharing her unofficial résumé.
“I think what it has taught me is something I had always longed to do, which is to be my most authentic self in every place I show up,” French Gates said.

you learn to play tennis or rock climbing
everyone of these things involve bildung
it involves opening up a space, where you go to that activity,
you do something that is specific special to that space,
to that activity, and then you come back from it
so somebody who has gone through a bildung has wide space of available
positions where he or she can go to them and come back,
each position involves transcending initial prejudices
the limits of this person's prejudice
subjective prejudices
possibly reaching a view point that is more universal
is more general
is more available to a wider group of people

This video is about Hans-Georg Gadamer and his book, Truth & Method. I begin by comparing the difference between secondary sources about Gadamer and a direct engagement with Gadamer's text. The text itself is rich, stimulating, and evokes the image of an author as someone who is himself intensely studying the history of ideas, the humanist tradition, and the nature of understanding. Moreover, I discuss the four core concepts, which according to Gadamer, are at the core of the humanist tradition: Bildung, Sensus Communis, Judgment, and Taste.

so somebody who has gone through a bildung has wide space of available
positions where he or she can go to them and come back,
each position involves transcending initial prejudices
the limits of this person's prejudice
subjective prejudices
possibly reaching a view point that is more universal
is more general
is more available to a wider group of people

This video is about Hans-Georg Gadamer and his book, Truth & Method. I begin by comparing the difference between secondary sources about Gadamer and a direct engagement with Gadamer's text. The text itself is rich, stimulating, and evokes the image of an author as someone who is himself intensely studying the history of ideas, the humanist tradition, and the nature of understanding. Moreover, I discuss the four core concepts, which according to Gadamer, are at the core of the humanist tradition: Bildung, Sensus Communis, Judgment, and Taste.
