Cosmic Vitalism
At the end of his life, he developed an original philosophical project that he called Cosmic Vitalism,[8] which seeks to think about the world from a Latin American perspective. Cosmic Vitalism posits life as the three-dimensional concept: cosmic life, biological life, and psychosocial life. In this way, the concept of life and its projection in cultural and social praxis are enriched.[6][1]
