The dramatic date of Plato’s dialogue Meno cannot be meaningfully determined until this character has been identified as one of the generals from Xenophon’s Anabasis. Researchers have attempted to date Plato’s dialogue immediately prior to this Voyage of the Ten Thousand that began in 401 BC, but have been pushed back to the winter of 403/402 based on conservative estimates. Renewed reading and factual research have filled the gaps so that Meno can finally be pushed forward to the year ...

My potential = infinite, just like yours. I keep visualizing, and so I keep using my thoughts to create wonderful things. I share this with you and I have a smile on my face. It is nice to work with you even for a certain period wherein principle time does not exist but our ultimate creation.

“Our hearts are calling out to us, but we are too busy calling out to the hearts of others. Checking in with them, yet forgetting to check in on ourselves.”

The poems written in this book portray my personal experience and shed some light on a few observations I have made about different types of issues in today’s society. Through my poems, I hope to give some insight into both my opinions and my mind. By writing about these topics and sharing them with the world, I aim to spread knowle...

Here, I defend women whose reputation is tainted by the poisonous tongues of people. I defend those who are completely unaware that a lie is being propagated about them while they are going about their business. This lie becomes two lies when it reaches the third person. At the end, that lie has turned into ten lies. Without realizing, people have created a certain perception of her, all because of the lies that got birthed out of the single lie that someone made up. This book is a combinatio...

Generally speaking books on creativity are of two kinds. Those that tell us how to become creative by changing the situation, and those that tell us to become creative by changing ourselves. Then follows practical advice as to the ways and means in which creativity may be attained.

This series does not want to do either! By our very nature we are creative but more or less unaware of that. So instead of giving lots of practical advice, it questions our routine ways of looking and interpreti...

This book is a spiritual biography. When I was 7 years old, some new playmates I just met almost buried me alive. When everything turned dark and I was lost in panic, my spirit detached itself from my body in order to find help.

Through experiments with hypnosis, out-of-body experiences and past life regression, it became more and more clear to me that body and mind are separate components, connected in a temporary way.

Besides this, I was fascinated to discover how by means of alternative...

On average, mankind uses 1.7 Earths each year for raw materials, food and energy. Many countries even more. Most green initiatives call for action, but do not address the over-consumption and its causes. This manifesto shows our true escape: stop doing, degrowth and help Mother Earth to regenerate.
