Note: This is an extended summary of the media we discuss in the adjoining episode.

What is a man's relationship with the world? Can one relate to the world beyond the discrete borders of one's being? Austrian philosopher Martin Buber explores.

'Ich and Du', translated as 'I and Thou', is this week's topic of discussion. Written by Martin Buber in 1923, it discusses a borderless way of viewing the world, of seeing a greater 'Thou' beyond a simplistic 'it'.
