• Originating in the time of [Confucius] and closely linked with [Taoism], it includes all activities, hobbies, and moments (for example, self-realizations and other forms of enlightenment) that induces a state of [detachment], euphoria, occasionally memory loss, and can also often leads to adventure.
    Escapeism can also be defined as a philosophy or way of life. The Escapeist philosophy can be defined in four parts (all of which have infinite potential to combine to fit each individuals path):

    The [inclination] to break free from confinement or control.
    The ability to successfully avoid dangerous or unpleasant things.
    A [mastering] of the art of escape to somewhere or from somewhere through certain rituals or activities specific to each individual.
    A partiality to or impulse for temporary distraction from reality or routine.

    Escapeism is not a religion, it does not involve any kind of deity, but rather a path of life and/or state of mind which exists as means of promoting compelling experiences which allow the individual to enjoy a [transient], yet genuine and fulfilling euphoria.
