What is Beauty? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Being inspired by the beautiful paintings of my friend Vittorio Marchesi, an artist living near Venice, Italy, I could not escape my usual tendency to ask philosophical questions with my familiar mystical nuances.We often say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder: that it is a human and social construct, rather than something that exists objectively in the world, like stones, buildings, and mountains “out there.”Indeed, what appears beautiful to me may not evoke any aesthetic response in oth

Advances in genomics and gene-editing technologies such as CRISPR will make it possible to correct certain genetic disorders at their source, while laborat
Money as a Force of Consciousness and Manifestation (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What is money?It sounds like a silly question, but what is money, really? Most of us would answer without hesitation: coins, banknotes, bank accounts, stocks, or digital numbers on a screen. Yet the deeper we look, the more elusive money becomes. Its physical forms change from age to age—shells, gold, paper, electronic records—while its influence over human life remains remarkably constant.Nowadays, especially on social media and within spiritual circles, the provocative idea that money is not m
