Dr. Robert E. Carter talks about self-cultivation
3D Dialogue: Self-Cultivation
Dr. Carter was one of the best professors I ever had. He turned me and many others on to thinking about philosophy not just as a dry, abstract discipline but as a real, living phenomenon.

Between 1982 and 1987 Bob changed me and as a result today I am better person -smarter, happier, more loving, more confident, more generous, wider, more alive. He showed a lot of love and care in his teaching.
Right Mike, he’s certainly one of those professors who stand out from the crowd. And I believe he got there through merit and integrity, which in the long run makes all the difference.
me too.
i mean, Bob changed me too – i am better for having him in my life. i am different for having him in my life.
thanks for posting – incredible, how i’ve missed his voice…
Yeah he was one of the better professors along the way. Last I heard he was moving to Japan. I hope he’s ok.
Thank you for those kind words. Yes, I am back from Japan and living in Peterborough. My 12th book on the Kyoto School is in press. I am a trumpeter in 2 big bands in the area, and am a grandfather. Do let me know what you are doing with your life. Bob Carter
Hi Dr. Carter, nice to hear from you. I’m living in Toronto and working hard to get my sites earthpages.org and earthpages.ca off the ground. If by chance you ever feel like submitting any popular focus articles, please don’t hesitate. I’m sure you have much wisdom to offer. Mike
