About the book: 2022 / This book is a collection of philosophical travel notes about the countries of East Asia. The author passed the impressions of the road through the crucible of reflection and became the reason for epiphanies. As a result, the reader is presented with a fusion of the experienced and the considered, a kind of thought-feeling, crystals of life experience, personally colored, but still super-personal, insoluble in the flow of time. In essence, this is the author's account of his “journey to the East” lasting half a century. It reflected his cherished thoughts about the world of the East. It embodied his dream of the eternal and universal East. The publishing layout of the book was saved in PDF A4 format.
