I'm not sure if you have read it, but it sounds like you would really enjoy reading "The Glass Bead Game" by Herman Hesse.

I have not! I've read Siddhartha though and enjoyed it greatly. Will add to my list :)

I concur that it is a wonderful burst when looking at the world flips from being a lot of separate things to a connected world. My most recent one was the "fact" that the chemical compounds released by oak leaves when damaged (i.e. by caterpillar) attract/are detected by wasps that prey on caterpillars. And you can get a sense of that when you smell fresh cut grass.

Scanning with the heuristic: "where are the connections that are hidden from me" seems to be a fruitful one. And never-ending one.

"There is no single fixed view from which everything can be understood, understanding is a constantly evolving feedback loop."

This was a wonderful and resonating piece. Loved it. Can't wait what circuits your brain develops on this journey you're on!
