“Divertism” – Philosophical Debate and Deep Reflection

Department
Workshops
Instructor
Karim Kadiri

The Divertism workshop is an invitation to explore the fundamental existential questions that shape our perception of the world and our relationship with happiness. Inspired by the book Divertism – The Art of Letting Go by Karim Kadiri, this workshop encourages deep philosophical and introspective reflection on concepts such as wisdom, ego, expectations, and the present moment.

In an open and interactive format, participants will engage in discussions around essential questions: Can we truly let go? Does life have an objective meaning, or is it a construct of the mind? Through guided debates, participants are encouraged to challenge their beliefs, develop a more stoic mindset, and better understand life’s unpredictability.

  • A deep philosophical exploration of the illusions of happiness and distraction.
  • An interactive and introspective approach that encourages self-questioning.
  • Rich and open debates on universal and existential themes.
  • A connection to ancient philosophies for a better understanding of detachment.
  • A direct link to the book Divertism – The Art of Letting Go to extend the reflection.

This workshop is not just a debate, but a true philosophical experience that pushes participants to go beyond everyday illusions and find inner balance. It is designed for anyone who wishes to better understand their relationship with suffering, happiness, and detachment in order to live a more aligned and conscious life.
