The laws of nature are immutable. However, we lack knowledge of the laws that are related to the human level of development. We somehow understand child development, but in general, the progress of humanity presents us with surprises all the time. The best example is how we are suddenly discovering that we are all dependent on one another, that what happens in one country affects everyone else.
The integral education explains the law of the common body, the common family, and how we can advance harmonously together toward a better future. Understanding the forces operating on our world that help us build better relationships between ourselves is the only way to reach harmony with Nature. In this Nature gives us freedom to grow independently. But if we do not do this, then we will feel the new stage in the form of blows: the crisis, war, natural disasters.
Disgust emerges when there is a discrepancy between oneself and what is outside oneself, and when there is antagonism with that “someone” or “something” outside of oneself. In other words, disgust is a feeling that appears when we feel what…
Alongside rumors of a near-to-come vaccine, governments and municipalities face the reality of a lingering and fast-spreading coronavirus pandemic. Some are reinstating lockdowns, others are begging residents to abide by instructions, maintain a six-foot distance, and wear masks. Still others…

Recent reports point to “serious brain disorders found in mild, recovering COVID-19 patients.” Likewise, Melinda Moyer wrote in The New York Times: “Among patients hospitalized for Covid-19 in Wuhan, China, more than a third experienced nervous system symptoms,” and “French researchers…
When you watch the news, you might think that the world has gone off the deep end. On the one hand, you have the coronavirus epidemic that’s ravaging the country and the entire world. On the other hand, you have…
Hatred is an attribute unique to humans. Human nature is a self-serving egoistic desire that considers its own benefit before the benefit of anyone else. The more we develop, the more our egoistic quality grows, and likewise, the more we…
On December 26, 2004, at 9:30 in the morning, an unusually large and fast moving wave rushed across the tranquil morning sea, wetted the surprised beachgoers in Koh Lanta, Thailand, crashed on the beach, and dragged some of the chairs…
Work hard and your dreams of success and prosperity will pay off. This has been the ethos of the American Dream, a belief that the sky was the limit regardless of origin or background. But political, social and economic greed…
We can educate ourselves or we can let the novel coronavirus do it for us, but while we wait for companies to find a vaccine or a cure, the old world is crumbling and nothing is being done to shape…
