The Unity of Knowledge and Action | Kaixi Tang | TEDxGHCIS Youth
In Kaixi Tang's daily experiences, she has been deeply aware of the difficulty of aligning inner moral awareness with outward behavior, which motivated her to choose the philosophical concept of 'unity of knowledge and action' as the gist of her speech. It’s not just a personal struggle—I’ve also noticed my peers and society as a whole facing the same challenge. This made me realize that our thoughts, feelings, and actions should not stop at the germination of inner ideas but should be reflected in outward, practical actions. By sharing this concept through her own experiences, how this philosophy has helped her grow, she hopes to use this opportunity to help others who face similar challenges overcome this difficulty. "The first time I saw the theme 'Inside Out,' I came up with the contrast between the 'inner' and 'outer.' In my daily experiences, I have been deeply aware of the difficulty of aligning inner moral awareness with outward behavior, which motivated me to choose the philosophical concept of 'unity of knowledge and action' as the gist of my speech. It’s not just a personal struggle—I’ve also noticed my peers and society as a whole facing the same challenge. This made me realize that our thoughts, feelings, and actions should not stop at the germination of inner ideas but should be reflected in outward, practical actions.
