Once upon a time, I thought strength meant being unshakable. Stoic. Unmoved. The human equivalent of a marble monument to toughness—minus the abs. Society loves to feed us this outdated, steel-jawed fantasy that vulnerability is weakness, that strength is about never cracking, never faltering, never feeling.

Michel invites you to step beyond passive “truth-seeking” and master the hidden prism of perception that colors every moment of your life. Blending Stoic clarity, Hermetic principles, and flashes of Nietzschean insight, Michel shows how the light of the world and the lens of the mind together create the spectrum we call “reality.”Inside, you’ll discover how to: See through first impressions – train the eye ...

What does it mean to be human in an age of intelligent machines? Can Artificial Intelligence truly think, feel, or understand in the way that humans do? And could AI ultimately redefine the very nature of existence?

Heidegger’s groundbreaking work, particularly in Being and Time, explored the fundamental questions of existence, ...

This is a book out of all literary categories, of an essay nature, written in the first person. It combines metaphysics, religion, esotericism, philosophy, science and psychology. The common denominator is the individual, the human being, and how it relates to the whole. It can be hard for those whose connection is positive, clear and defined.

Avec ses racines, son fût et ses branchages, l'arbre relie le ciel, la terre et le monde souterrain. Symbole parfait puisqu'il réunit tous les niveaux du réel, il lie la matière et l'esprit, l'inconscient et le conscient, le réel et le rêve. Synthèse du monde, l'arbre incarne la vie inépuisable, la réalité absolue, le sacré par excellence.

Pour quelles raisons l'intelligence peut-elle conduire à l'idiotie ?
