How do certain beliefs and fears arise?

Why do I do what I do?

What can I do to take control of my life?

How do I create harmony with my environment?

These are important life questions that many people struggle

with, but do not have the answers to. The world is becoming

increasingly complex and there is a growing need for awareness

about ourselves and about life. But how do you become aware,

and of what?

Consciousness is essential in it lie the answers to the why.

Only when you can e...

Essence is a journey towards purity. To your highest frequency. Essence comprises thoughts, feelings and a particular action.

Dear Explorers,

Obstacles, complex conditions, and the behaviour of inadequacy will prevail. Perhaps we may suggest that there are enormous and heavier forces that show in our routine activities, which we call >life.

Frequently, we neglect to seek ourselves, our own understanding, and value ourselves. It is nice to acknowledge that each expression educates another to illustrate themselves and to endure.

You and I can get substantially better by making significant steps and creating an enjoyab...

Here you can read the latest insights on how the climate is created and the mechanisms that determine it, and why the climate fluctuates between tropical hot and icy cold.

These mechanisms include:

-Plate tectonics that controls the import of CO2 into the atmosphere and chemical processes to remove the CO2 from the atmosphere.

-New logically constructed analyses of the ice cores drilled in the Antarctica ice cap that shows the minimum reaction temperature of the CO2 removal chemical processe...

Modern receptions of Graeco-Roman Antiquity are important ideological markers of the ways we envisage our own twenty-first-century societies. An urgent topic of study is: what kinds of narratives – sometimes controversial – about Antiquity do people create for themselves at this moment in time, and for what reasons? This volume aims to showcase a number of illustrative examples, and thus to provide a deeper understanding of twenty-first-century reception of Antiquity.

After a general intr...

The Caribbean region faces particular environmental challenges as a result of colonial land use, pressures from tourism and globalisation, as well as climate change. No less affected are its heritage resources, which include natural and cultural elements crucial to economic survival and local identity. This research explores the relationship between land, law and heritage in order to better understand the regulatory failures that undermine heritage protection in the English-speaking Caribbean.

Using a spatial justice lens to examine the legal framework of eight islands in the Lesser Antilles, the analysis posits that domestic heritage laws are ineffective, because they ignore the relevance of local places or landscapes to the formation of heritage. Relying instead on ideas of land as abstract property rights, heritage is presented as a mere visual embellishment that can deteriorate into an unsightly and costly burden for the landowner or State, rather than the outcome of dynamic and locally unique interactions between people and place...

What is at stake in this book is an attempt to de-align the discussion of international art practice from the rhetoric of globalization and an exclusive focus on the contemporary. Instead, it seeks to trace a genealogy of trans-local practices, with histories and methods that link to networks of friendship and solidarity, and of the visual arts as participating in a longer history of contact between individuals motivated by shared interests and struggles. Visual art is not limited to a discip...

'As Above, So Below' documents the work made by Amsterdam-based artist, Ruchama Noorda over a twenty-year period and explores the esoteric system of belief that links her practice to the early 20th century Lebensreformers, the European avant-garde, and today's no growth environmentalist movement.
