Reflections on Bad Living
Keywords:
Good living, bad living, Consciousness, Duality, UnityAbstract
Our author is originally from San Juan Chamula, Chiapas, with doctoral studies in Regional Studies, he is a teacher in Education with a specialty in Educational Research, he works in front of groups, he is the director of said primary school and he is also a teacher at the Institute of Postgraduate Studies, in the same state of Chiapas. He has several publications where he talks about the rupture of the being of the current Mayans (2016), the approach of the svu'el in San Juan Chamula, or in which he collaborates on the philosophy of the native peoples (2019) or on emerging epistemologies, didactics, history and culture of the south (2022). Here he invites the reader to understand the notion of the duality of Good Living and Bad Living as it is conceived from his community where reality is made up of good and bad, where plants, animals or the storm, together with men and women in their hearts, duality is lived. Thus, good living is connected with bad living, because we do not only want the good, we also want the bad.
