On Awakening: What Would Life Be Like, Really?

We often ask what life would look like if humanity awakened. The problem isn’t the question itself, but the assumption that we could recognize the answer from within our current condition. Whatever such a world might be, it would not resemble our fantasies, myths, or technologies. It would demand something far more unsettling: presence without projection.

Symbols and Reality, Act III: Reclaiming Agency

After exploring the hidden costs of technology and the symbolic power of modern saviors, this essay examines how to reclaim human agency. It delves into discernment, ethical action, and the philosophical and psychological tools needed to navigate hype, myth, and narrative manipulation — empowering readers to act consciously in a world dominated by spectacle and symbols.

Gold Coin: Escaping the Capitalist Imprint

This piece explores how deeply capitalism has shaped our inner lives — not just our work or our wallets, but our values, identity, and sense of purpose. It asks what remains when we strip away the inherited stories and return to our original essence, our unconditioned knowing.

Beneath the noise, a deeper truth keeps pressing through the cracks — that much of what we’ve accepted as normal is anything but natural, and the cost of participating grows heavier by the year. This piece is an attempt to trace that unease back to its source, to examine the mechanisms that keep us compliant, and to consider what becomes possible once we stop pretending the modern world is built on anything real.

When an Old Truth Breaks

Every so often, a truth we’ve lived by begins to fracture. What once felt steady and self-evident no longer holds. The mind resists, the heart hesitates, and we question how something once sacred could suddenly feel hollow. Yet this breaking is not collapse — it’s transformation. The moment a past truth gives way, we stand at the threshold of what’s next, if only we’re willing to look beyond the shards and keep walking.
