MISSION STATEMENT

Knowledge of what we truly are is stolen from us: Economies tell us that we are nothing but consumers; churches, that we are born sinners; politicians, that we are gullible imbeciles; scientists, that we are meaningless machines; educators, that we are to forfeit ‘Know Thyself’ for the benefit of greedy and selfish elites, and parents teach us how to bow to ancient and irrational fallacies that obliterate self-reflection and critical thinking.

And so, we have no clue what we are.

We are ingenious, self-reflective, powerful creatures innately endowed with a relative degree of freedom to affect our evolution. These facts are erased from our educational systems to deny us the knowledge of power so tremendous in us that threatens and terrifies those who aim to control us under the blankets of ignorance and fear.

I open my eyes every day to witness the enslavement of the human mind under the avarice and selfishness of those few who, knowing that if we are allowed the power of what we truly are, we will turn around the world of destruction and oppression created to serve their greed, and build instead a world in which every single human being is entrusted with the means to be happy.

To recapture what is taken from us, I have rejected ‘conventional learning’ and the so-called ‘knowledge’ of authoritarian ideologies. As a result, hidden behind the systematic order of scientific theories, the curiosity of insightful minds, and the wisdom of ancient cultures, I have found a beautiful and far-reaching way to understand ourselves and our world in a Paradigm based on the Universal Blueprint from which Life arises.

Twice a month, I will share ideas on this Paradigm.

Etc., etc.

My Life flows like a river meandering between opposing yet complementary facets of existence as I choose, oftentimes consciously but mostly by instinct, which side to lean towards or move away from. There are times when I measure which side is strongest, which one weaker, which side can change my life, which one just a day. There are times when a side has the power to overtake me, prejudice, for instance, instead of tolerance, and times when I have the power to overtake them, courage, for instance, instead of fear. There are times when moving towards a side makes me feel ugly and scared while moving towards the opposite side makes me feel beautiful and happy.

It is uncanny and utterly fascinating to be able to look back into my past and recollect and examine the decisions I made and those that were made for me; remembering how sometimes the push and pull of opposing sides led me into corners and sometimes into open doors.

My capacity to examine events that shape my Life and the strength of the forces behind those events led me to delve into the world of the primal instincts that urge me to survive, to bond, to engender, to learn, to love, as well as the world of the spirit that endows me with the power to manipulate those urges and the wisdom to know when to let them conquer me. This capacity makes me realize what a wondrous creature I am; it gives me insight into the ingenious forces that created me from the bond of miniscule cells that already knew how to meander between the opposing complements of existence and choose.
