100% intuitive to the core, almost like a textbook example -- He trusted his intuition/inner knowing so deeply he was willing to give up his life of privilege he was born into to pursue philosophy and seek a higher truth. Finding unity in things that are seemingly opposite, expressing the concept of change in things that seemingly appear to be one thing, through focal points of imagery (fire, stepping foot in the same river) is pretty much the basis of the Ni's ability to recognize patterns/connections in multiple points. Less serious note -- I wonder what exactly his framework behind his theory was where he decided drying himself in cow dung to draw out "the noxious damp humor" would be a good idea...couldn't this be accomplished by other similar, less gross substances too? Naww...cow dung it is. 🤷♀️
