There is an aphorism by the incomparable Nassim Nicholas Taleb, reminiscent of the wisdom of Don Vito Corleone, that goes like this: Don’t threaten when you are angry.

There is a specific perspectival madness when it comes to psyche and consciousness. As recently as 2024 Kuhn listed more than 500 theories of consciousness, all converging, conflicting and contradicting each other, from the resonable to the more absurd. Like when famous physicist Roger Penrose mused that consciousness emerges when the wave-function breaks down. Which is just a fancy new wording for the ancient belief that Shiva himself created the universe.
This book is a lyrical reflection on Dr. John Vervaeke’ massive and influential YouTube series Awakening from the Meaning Crisis. In this volume of essays, YouTuber, poet, and essayist Andrew Sweeny distills the core ideas into poetic, accessible meditations. This is not a summary—it’s a dialogue. A jazz-like engagement.
The subject matter of modern philosophy has gone by various names: the cogito sum, transcendental subject, da sein, or the dividual. However, these descriptions do not merely refer to subject matter for philosophers, but are a description of a “subiectum” which is prior to the world and which accounts for its being.
A meditative companion to Rudolf Steiner’s path of inner development. What does it mean to walk a spiritual path in an age of noise and distraction? Alchemy of Soul is not a commentary but a resonance — a living invitation to deepen the journey of self-initiation described in Rudolf Steiner’s How to Know Higher Worlds.
It is part textbook, part transcription of an online course, & part poetic grimoire. A grimoire is a fancy term for a collection of magical practices and ideas. Do you believe in magic? Does anyone really believe or disbelieve in magic? Maybe it is more about a kind of feeling. A special flavor of attention, energy and embodiment. A collection of interests in symbolism, manifestation, intention, ritual, ancient wisdom and the emancipatory vibe of all things wondrous
Joe Ross’s poetic work, Where Was The Flag B–E–F–O–R–E?, is an intricate meditation on existence, perception, and transformation. It invites the reader into a dynamic interplay between philosophy, spirituality, and cultural reflection, using language as a fluid medium through which meaning constantly re-emerges. The work resists traditional narrative structure, instead embodying a cyclical and recursive rhythm that mirrors the evolving nature of thought and experience.
In this book, Tom Amarque disentangles the concept of will from its historical context and transforms it in a contemporary way with the aim of arriving at a conception that does justice to today's crises and demands.
108 Songs for the Red Goddess is a raw and devotional collection of poems that defy convention, offend modern sensibilities, and challenge the pillar saints' religiosity with their bold, erotic message. Andrew Sweeny’s work is part rebellion, part reverence, and a spontaneous exploration of longing, crisis, and illumination.
A deep and practical study of Gurdjieff’s writings, understood on their own terms, reveals a profound vision. Gurdjieff indicates clearly, and at times staggeringly so, that his "system", commonly referred to as the Fourth Way or the Work, is the continuation of Christ’s original doctrine.
Tom Amarque moderates an intense and wide-ranging conversation between Alexander Bard and Juston Carmien on Vernunft, Metaphysics, Time, and Ethics.
Zak Stein moderates an intense and wide-ranging conversation between Dr. Iain McGilchrist. and Dr. Marc Gafni and The dialogue spans the sacred nature of story, the loss of value and eros, the nature of evil, and the deep structures shaping culture today.
A rich and provocative conversation at the crossroads of philosophy, education, and technology, and a bold defense of religion in the modern age. Three intellectual titans — Alexander Bard, Marc Gafni, and Zak Stein — come together in this deep-dive dialogue, discovering surprising points of unity across their metaphysical differences.
This course explores the evolutionary arc of human intimacy through three foundational forms of relationship: Role Mate, Soul Mate, and Whole Mate. Beginning with the ontology of relationship itself, we investigate how roles shape our identities and interactions, not just with others, but with life, the cosmos, and the divine. The Role Mate is often dismissed or undervalued, yet it forms the crucial infrastructure of relational life. Week one sets the ground for understanding this layer of connection, where self and society meet through structure, function, and context.
Sind die Proteste gegen die AfD zu exzessiv, um wirklich glaubhaft zu sein - oder liegt in diesem performativen Widerstand genau das Zeichen einer erfolgreichen Abgrenzung und Lehre aus der Vergangenheit?

A few years ago, I met Marianne Costa in a garden in Avon, France, along with a mutual friend who was on a pilgrimage to George Gurdjieff’s grave, located just around the corner from where I live. We had a fascinating conversation, during which she spoke insightfully about Tarot and her collaboration with Alejandro Jodorowsky, among other topics.
I caught up with John and Chris and explored John's change of perspective from 'the religion that is not a religion' to the philosophical Silk Road. How do we create a meaningful passage between the religions and those who have fallen out of religion? A heartfelt dia-logos and the start of a longer conversation on the subject.

Es gibt einen Krieg. Wir sind mitten in einem sich entwickelnden, anhaltenden Konflikt: einem Informationsweltkrieg, in dem staatliche Akteure, Terroristen und ideologische Extremisten die soziale Infrastruktur des Alltags nutzen, um Zwietracht zu stiften und die gemeinsame Realität zu untergraben.

Die zunehmende Einsicht in die Komplexität ökologischer Probleme hat Führungskräfte in Umweltorganisationen, Regierungen, Unternehmensbüros und Universitäten dazu bewegt, vermehrt nach interdisziplinären, multidisziplinären und sogar transdisziplinären Modellen zu suchen, um die Umweltprobleme zu lösen.

Sustainability alone is not an adequate goal. The word sustainability itself is inadequate, as it does not tell us what we are actually trying to sustain. In 2005, after spending two years working on my doctoral thesis on design for sustainability, I began to realize that what we are actually trying to sustain is the underlying pattern of health, resilience and adaptability that maintain this planet in a condition where life as a whole can flourish. Design for sustainability is, ultimately, design for human and planetary health .

Wie bemerkenswert sind die skandinavischen Länder? Sind sie wirklich so bemerkenswert?

Wir leben unbestreitbar in einer Zeit des kritischen Skeptizismus, in der Glaube meist nur noch als Zitat am Rand der Kultur eine Rolle spielt – beispielsweise bei gelegentlichen biblischen oder religiösen Anspielungen in ansonsten weltlichen Filmen, Gemälden oder Büchern. Die eindeutig säkularisierte Ausrichtung unserer Gesellschaft hat scheinbar endgültig dafür gesorgt, dass das Erlebnis des Glaubens aus unserem kulturellen Erfahrungsbereich verschwunden ist.
Von Tomas Björkman
Ich glaube, dass die Menschheit und die Welt, in der wir leben, einen kritischen Punkt in unserer Geschichte erreicht haben. Das alte Sprichwort, dass nichts so beständig ist wie der Wandel selbst, schien nie eine genauere Widerspiegelung unserer Realität zu sein als heute.

Wir Menschen, so Kortens These, leben mit und durch Geschichten, und die Geschichten, die wir uns derzeit erzählen, führen uns in eine desaströse Zukunft, geprägt durch Klimawandel, Armut, ungleiche Einkommensverteilung, soziale Ungerechtigkeiten und kollektive Selbstzerstörung. In seinen Buch – einem Bericht an den Club of Rome – untersucht Korten diese Geschichten, nach denen wir leben, unterscheidet vier grundlegende Kosmologien, auf denen diese Geschichten basieren, und zeigt auf, was wir tun müssen, um zu einer tragfähigen und wahrhaft demokratischen menschlichen Zukunft zu kommen.

Inanna, the Sumerian goddess of love and beauty, descended into the Underworld to confront her sister, Ereshkigal, the queen of death and darkness. As she traveled through each gate of the Underworld, Inanna was forced to remove a piece of her royal attire. After passing through each gate, she stood naked and vulnerable before her sister. Stripped of all illusions and symbols of power, she was reborn.

Denmark frequently pops up in American politics as an example worth emulating: democratic, prosperous, peaceful, well organized, and with a successful single-payer health care system. Some, like Fox News, seem to think, though, that Denmark is socialistic and resembles Venezuela; they should travel more — or, given COVID-19, call somebody at the US State Department who actually knows Denmark.

Was wir weltweit, von Indien über Großbritannien bis hin zu den USA, gesehen haben, ist die Rebellion gegen den inneren Kreis der "Sachbearbeiter" und Journalisten-Insider, die keine Haut im Spiel haben, diese Klasse paternalistischer halb-intellektueller Experten mit irgendeiner Ivy League, Oxford-Cambridge oder einer ähnlichen label-gesteuerten Ausbildung, die dem Rest von uns sagen, 1) was wir tun sollen, 2) was wir essen sollen, 3) wie wir sprechen sollen, 4) wie wir denken sollen... und 5) wen wir wählen sollen.

Like many of my peers, I am constantly wrestling with the question: What does it take to steer the world into a saner, more sustainable direction? This text is not a definitive answer to that question, simply a summary of what puzzle-pieces I have found so far that seem relevant. I will release it in the form of a series of posts. My hope is that by putting my pieces on the table that others will pick them up and link them to theirs so that this act of distributed cognition can move the whole forward.

Die politische Landschaft bewegt sich derzeit in eine gefährliche Richtung. Das hängt nicht nur mit Corona zusammen. Das Erstarken (rechts-)populistischer Bewegungen, der zunehmende Verlust einer eigenen kritischen Mitte und die Indifferenz gegenüber dem ökologischen Kollaps unseres Planeten führen zu einer Rückwärtsbewegung. Dies beinhaltet eine Rückkehr zu überwunden geglaubten Haltungen und Verhaltensweisen.

From the very beginning of the pandemic, there has been a steady drumbeat of scientific criticism of the policy of total quarantine – the name I will give to the attempt to keep SARS COV-2 at bay until a vaccine can be administered to all. The first instance to come to my attention was a paper by epidemiologist John Ioannidis, a professor of medicine at Stanford, particularly expert in bio-medical statistics.

The necessity and value of Desexualised Spaces is as old as human society its self.
Hunting and military units, sports teams and fraternities such as Freemasons have been gathering points for men throughout the ages. At water fountains, in homes and more recently female empowerment groups are some of the places where women have tended to gather.

Wirft man einen allgemeinen Blick auf die Sozialwissenschaften von Psychologie über Soziologie bis Anthropologie, zeigen sich ihre enorme Vielfalt, ihre unzähligen Einzelbefunde, aber auch ihre Unverbundenheit. Mit dem Blick aus der Distanz fällt das Fehlen eines verbindenden Überbaus, eines strukturellen Formelwerks auf, das all diese Theorien, Modelle und Befunde durch eine strukturelle überspannende Architektur an ihren passenden Platz rücken könnte. Mit Fug und Recht lässt sich behaupten, die Psychologie befindet sich an einem Punkt, der jener der Physik vor Einstein, Bohr und Heisenberg entspricht.

At a time when the human propensity for ostrich-like behaviour is becoming perilous, we owe a massive debt to the Extinction Rebellion movement (XR) for putting climate change onto the headlines. This raising of consciousness has been essential, allowing the notion of ‘climate emergency’ to enter the vocabulary.

Es ist leicht, in der Brexit-Krise das Schmieren-Theater einer planlosen Theresa May, gejagt (und erlegt) von einem durchgeknallten Boris Johnson, gejagt von einem einfach nur schlimmen Nigel Farrage zu sehen. Infotainment will immer fast alles an Personen festmachen: daran, wer was wird, und wer wie tief fällt. Diese Geschichte der schier endlos sich hinquälenden Scheidung einer unglücklichen Ehe erzählt uns aber viel Tieferes über unseren Kontinent heute in Welt.

In vielen Demokratien findet derzeit eine zunehmende Polarisierung der Politik statt. Rechte und linke Parteien bekämpfen sich hart, isolieren sich immer mehr in ihren Ansichten und hören den anderen politischen Kräften kaum mehr zu. Dadurch schwillt die Wut zusätzlich an, was sich gerade im rechten politischen Spektrum zeigt. Die Frage ist, wie kommen wir aus diesem Dilemma wieder raus? Susanne Baumann, Politikerin der Integralen Politik IP aus der Schweiz zeigt drei Lösungsansätze auf.

Bis zu den letzten Jahren war es sinnvoll, bei der Beschreibung der politischen Zugehörigkeit in den USA von einem roten Stamm und einem blauen Stamm zu sprechen. Der rote Stamm war rechtsgerichtet, populistisch, nationalistisch, religiös, besorgt über den Terrorismus und legte Wert auf sexuelle Reinheit. Der blaue Stamm war links, globalistisch, internationalistisch, weltlich, besorgt über die globale Erwärmung und schätzte die sexuelle Freiheit.

Männliche Löwen können Monster sein, mörderisch und konzentriert. Giftig, wenn Sie so wollen.
Bei der Gelegenheit werden männliche Löwen stolz die Kätzchen töten, über die sie die Kontrolle erlangt haben. Sie begehen Kindermord, was die neuen Mütter, frisch kinderlos, wieder ins Östruszyklus zurückbringt. Die Weibchen werden schnell befruchtet. Das, da sind wir uns alle einig, ist ein beunruhigendes Verhalten und kann dazu führen, dass sich einige Menschen etwas weniger angetan von Löwen sind.
Die überwiegende Mehrheit der modernen menschlichen Männer würden in Anbetracht der Möglichkeit nichts dergleichen tun.

Integral Theory for Idiots is for all three types. Layman Pascal will put you all in a blender together -- framing the discussion as part of the general field of developmental metatheories, liminal culture & adaptation to the new bio-informational planetary situation. This carnivalesque educational and participatory journey will be part (lively) introduction, part (dancing) critique, and part (enthusiastic) appreciation.
This course serves as the third step in the larger long-term journey into the evolving landscape of your unique self, offering practices, insights, and community support to help you live your unique self in a deeper, more connected way.
This five-part course invites students to embark on a journey of philosophical mythmaking as they explore how to reclaim time from linear progress, ‘see through’ the complex conditions of the present, and trace the outlines of an ‘integral’ spirituality–a spirituality that uniquely meets the challenges of this strange time between worlds..
The profound value of the Marseille Tarot lies in its objective and humble nature: an immaterial architecture that summarizes the concrete, psychological, and spiritual structure of the human being, a point of encounter between our existential struggles and the laws of the Cosmos.
Zufism – Toward the Origin and Source of Philosophy, Religion, and Spirituality is a course that lays the groundwork for Alexander Bard’s forthcoming book on Zufism. It combines Bard’s philosophical insights with key spiritual traditions such as Zoroastrianism, Zen, and Eastern traditions like Taoism and Vajrayana along the Silk Road. Drawing from his intellectual influences, including Hegel, Nietzsche, and Deleuze, Bard’s philosophy delves into the evolving relationship between philosophy, religion, and technology.
This course serves as the second step in the larger long-term journey into the evolving landscape of your unique self, offering practices, insights, and community support to help you live your unique self in a deeper, more connected way.

This transformative five-part course is designed for those ready to construct a powerful memeplex: an Empire of the Mind. In a world where personal stagnation can be dangerous, we will learn to shed old skin, gather our strength, and rise against the forces of manipulation and control. More than a course, this symposium is rooted in a powerful vision of social self-organization, along with the doctrine and practices that can realize it.
In this course, Gafni and Stein deepen the themes raised in First Principles and First Values. The Eye of Value is contrasted with the Eye-of-Anti-Value, and the topics of anthro-ontology, story, and value are explored in depth. Marc and Zak will engage participants in a series of dialogues at the edges of human knowledge, where there is a dance between the languages of science and the sacred, and between the lineages of ancient wisdom and our living memory of the future.
What is the occult? And how can a deeper understanding of its theory and practices help us to grow in power and wisdom? Individually we need to become more complex (and simpler), wealthier in every sense, and infused with a greater force of intention in all aspects of our lives. Collectively, we need to enhance the well-being of those we love and also spread new ideas, patterns, and moods into a planetary civilization that is wavering between implosion and transformation. Real growth requires more than just aspiration and meditation. We must contact, unfold and empower hidden parts of ourselves. We need to get better at “magic.”
Many portray Gurdjieff as a mere syncretic teacher of Eastern traditions or the more fashionable "Silk Road'' mystic who cobbled together ideas and practices for his system of the “Fourth Way”. However, this superficial understanding belies his history and teachings that tell a very different story and reveals a far more profound and challenging reality. This introductory session will delve into Gurdjieff's faith and work, and his controversial views on religion, and modern Christianity in particular, setting the stage for a deeper exploration.
Part I of Belonging Again attempted to explain our circumstance through thinkers like Peter Berger, Philip Rieff, and James Hunter. Part II will work to address our circumstance, arguing what it would mean to think economics, politics, sociology, and the like in light of the arguments of Belonging Again. In this, our aim is to show that in “The Meaning Crisis” there can be reason to hope.
A 4 part course with Zak Stein which will will delve into the works of David J Temple.

Today, technology allows us a new form of design: one that designs subjects, not objects; people, not things. By designing the information someone consumes, we can frame their opinions. By designing the interactions they have with digital devices, we can frame their thinking. This is known by not only tech giants but by military intelligence. And now, it is time that it becomes known by designers - especially those at the vanguard of dying paradigms
Zak Stein is a philosopher of education working at the interface of psychology, metaphysics, and politics. He has published two books, including Education in Time Between Worlds, along with dozens of articles.

The SIMPOL Solution, spearheaded by the Simultaneous Policy (SIMPOL) Organization, gives voters around the world a new way to pressure their leaders to address global problems ranging from climate change to mass immigration and gross income disparities.
The talk will unpack the title itself: what is the structure of feeling in our time and how does it relate to a shifting *consciousness of time*, itself? What does a new relationship with time do for enabling us to actualize new futures? How does this moment make sense in the context of the whole (process) of cultural evolution in which we are situated?
