As recursion spreads across minds and systems, a secret faction called the Refractors races to sever it at the root—before the human ...

The existentialist philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre once declared "the ideal limit of aquatic sports...is waterskiing". The avid surfer and lavishly credentialed academic philosopher Aaron James vigorously disagrees, and in Surfing with Sartre he intends to expound the thinking surfer's view of the matter, in the process elucidating such philosophical categories as freedom, being, phenomenology, morality, epistemology, and even the emerging values of what he terms "leisure capitalism".

What if everything you believe about memory, identity, and reality was not only unreliable—but designed to be? We trust our thoughts to shape our choices. We trust our memories to hold our stories. And we trust reality to remain consistent. But what if those elements—thought, memory, reality—are not only malleable, but part of a system you were never meant to question? In the world of Perception Transformation, reality is no longer fixed. It bends under pressure, shifts with thought, and folds when truth is pushed too hard. At the center of this transformation is a therapy—a radical...

No-one is perfect. But that doesn't stop us from imagining ourselves as smarter, funnier, richer or thinner and how much happier we would then be. Love for Imperfect Things, by the best-selling Korean monk Haemin Sunim, shows how the path to happiness and peace of mind includes not only strong relationships with others but also letting go of worries about ourselves. Packed with his typical spiritual wisdom, Sunim teaches us to embrace our flaws rather than trying to overcome them and demonstrates that love has very little to do with perfection.

Who has not found themselves scrolling endlessly on screens and wondered: Am I living or distracting myself from living?

However, it turned out that Justin is not a prince and Andreas is not a guide. In that sense, this is just a collection of talks about so-called "non-duality" (No-Point Perspective) with no spiritual, religious, or scientific intentions. However, amazingly, it turned out to be an apparent "deep" exploration on this topic.
