Key Notes
definition
Asha is constantly becoming, has no endpoint, and differs for each person while still moving the world toward virtue and justice.
method
The class is not about memorized answers but about asking hard questions and rebuilding oneself through dialogue, debate, and possible future correction.
model
Asha has no endpoint in one lifetime; reincarnation lets the person return repeatedly and move closer each time.
model
Jiang rejects the simple heaven-and-final-judgment ending: truth is a constant process of becoming, struggle, pain, and tragedy from which hope, virtue, and good can be built.
