non + x is dedicated to the critique of western Buddhism and similar contemporary ideological systems of thought
and practice.
We view critical pracitce as simultaneously destructive and creative. For we hold that "the conditions of a true critique and a true creation are one and the same:
the destruction of the image of thought which presupposes itself and the genesis of the act of thinking in thought itself." (Gilles Deleuze)
Our goal "consists in wresting vital potentialities of humans from the artificial forms and static norms that subjugate them" (Marjorie Gracieuse).
