In our digital and information age, it is hard to imagine a time when knowledge was not so easy to access and only the most privileged had a right to a decent education.

Some Thoughts on Humility
Article By Siobhan Farrar posted by UK, February 28, 2026
Humility, is a virtue that I have come to understand as a great harmoniser, a golden lyre the soul can use to make life into an ever more beautiful music. Humility will cool down the harsh sounds of our ego and warm up the strings of our spiritual resonance. The magic of making inner steps emerges as we accept the ground on which we stand. In this sense we ‘quit the evasions’...

Developing Inner Life

“Inner life is indispensable” – Jorge Angel Livraga Rizzi
In general scientists and philosophers agree that what we call ‘Life’ is characterized by movement, and ‘inner life’ is the same, except that the movement is of an inner or invisible nature. This includes the movements of the ‘stranger within’ whom we can recognize as a presence that has always accompanied us, and whom we...
Romanticism or Realism?
Article By Julian Scott posted by UK, December 30, 2025
This question occurred to me as I was coming to the end of the 19th century novel Middlemarch by George Eliot (the pseudonym of Mary Ann Evans). As the characters’ lives and actions came to fruition I found myself thinking: would this person’s life really have ended like this (so happily), or would they have ended up in a pit of despair?

Article By Sabine Leitner posted by UK, December 30, 2025
I have always believed that it is healthy to question everything every now and then and to check whether the beliefs we have adopted during our journey through life are still valid. In some way, we could call this a mini-crisis of meaning because it can be quite painful, even destructive to current arrangements, and a time of great sadness and loneliness because suddenly we might...
