Human civilisation began with artisans. In the narrow sense, artisans refer to traditional craftsmen; in the broad sense, artisans refer to makers of all non-natural objects.

The making of artisans is another kind of "growth" in contrast to nature, which involves intellect, physical strength, and complex division of labour. Since the Industrial Revolution, this "growth" has exacerbated the imbalance between nature and individual life.

All human progress is created by artisans and conversely. No craftsmanship should ever be a mechanical repetition unrelated to a spiritual goal, be it motivation or result, be it inheritance or innovation, be it by handicraft or by the use of machines and artificial intelligence. Thinking about what is made is more important than the making itself, it is about the destiny and future of humanity.
