I realize with amazement how difficult it is for people to be silent. We live in an era characterized by horizontal or superficial hyper-communication, where there is no time (silence) to deepen anything.
Read MoreThis aggressive religion called science is moving further and further away from empiricism and into mere rationalism. Its increasingly forceful priests ask the empire's subjects to kneel before their dogmas.
Read MoreI believe in the exclusivity of important feelings such as love and friendship. I am convinced that those who say they love everyone, the famous inclusives, have never really loved anyone and have no idea of the depth of some feelings.
Read MoreLightness is undoubtedly one of the many qualities lost in our time, which I call "posthuman". They are all serious, sullen, unable to express themselves with irony or to know how to grasp it. If you smile and express a sense of lightness with your being, you are looked upon by the "undead" with suspicion.
Read MoreI've come to the realization that people find it difficult to keep up with change. I happen to come across people not so young anymore who have remained where they were ten years ago and much younger people who do not have the ability to understand the "now".
Read MoreI imagine what we are as a mixture of a past heritage: our ancestors, cultural and racial family heritage; and what we then absorb after birth is obviously strongly influenced by the choices we make. The whole thing held together by a magical aura that perhaps could be defined as soul.

Read MoreBeing spontaneous is increasingly mistaken with being at the mercy of one's own biological machine, i.e. obeying, without autonomous consciousness, to demands induced on minds/bodies tamed by advertising and mass manipulation.
Read MoreThis neo-archetype created by Jack Donovan, which I rework here in a personal way, represents what the awakened Being must strive for. The Noble Beast is not the halved man promoted by modern intellectualism, that is, a being forgetful of his own body and animal instincts.
Read MoreI hear more and more often, as if it were normal, of people taking medication or regularly visiting psychologists and psychoanalysts. I have strong doubts about the idea that digging into the unconscious is beneficial, much less that sitting down is the solution.
Read MoreThe current culture, dominated by the "w0ke", is by far the most intolerant ever.
Those who authentically appreciate both cultural and racial differences are aware that we are not all the same (the fact that we are not all equal is not an opinion but a natural truth) , although they never judge in a better/worse sense.
I'm reading several things by René Guénon, an author of the early twentieth century. After an initial period in which he was infatuated with occultism, he became one of the leading European philosophers to integrate and understand Indian thought, thus having a decisive influence on all those who have studied and tried to integrate Eastern studies with Western mentality, including Evola.
Read MoreThe human being has incredible untapped potential and has instead, just like any other living being, limits that should be respected and used as a great possibility to understand vertical freedom while respecting the limits of horizontal freedom.
Read MoreThe contemporary myth of freedom would have us free to choose over everything, going beyond nature itself. To have children when you can't have them naturally, to have no reins and cultural boundaries, to be able to love everyone universally, to choose what gender to be, to stay young, to live forever.

Read MoreThe only real revolution is the inner one. It is not a goal to be reached but a myth towards which to walk. The inner revolution is in the making, it is a removal piece by piece of the illusory veils (maya in Sanskrit) that conceal reality.
Read MoreWe are finalizing the program of the Bliss Beat Festival and that gave me the idea for this post. We have teachers who propose and would like to use labels that identify a specific style such as: "Iyengar Yoga", "Anusara Yoga", "Rocket Yoga" etc.
Read MoreThere is only one thing that can differentiate an animal from a human being and that is not intelligence. There is only one thing that can differentiate an artificial intelligence from a human being. Of course, it's not intelligence.
Read MoreWhat happens around me, the various problems to solve and the challenges to think about are always an excellent source to be able to practice but also, as in this case, to explain in practical terms what otherwise remain abstract philosophical thoughts detached from reality.
