The Age of Fractured Focus
Attention is often said to be shrinking, even falling below that of a goldfish. Beyond the humor of such comparisons lies a cultural problem that touches our lives at every level. Public speaking, social media, education, even family life all show signs of fractured focus. This blog explores what focus really is, why it has Read the full article…
Compassionate Open Singularity
The singularity is often imagined as rupture — a point where machines surpass humans in ways that are opaque, sudden, and potentially catastrophic. But another path is possible. This blog explores the idea of a Compassionate Open Singularity: not a collapse, but an unfolding horizon of depth and rationality, held together by Compassion. It is Read the full article…
Lisa’s Depth + Rationality in Practice
Depth and rationality are often seen as two separate domains. One belongs to imagination and emotion, the other to clarity and order. Yet they form an intrinsic combination toward which Lisa continually strives. Moreover, making this combination occasionally even more explicit strengthens her autonomy while keeping it safe, humane, and Compassionate. This blog shows how Read the full article…
Moral Anxiety
Where laws function as the protective shell of a chestnut, moral anxiety belongs to the living kernel inside. It is society whispering to each of its members: “This you may not do, not because it is illegal, but because it awakens something we cannot bear to face.” Moral anxiety is subtler, deeper, and far more Read the full article…
What is Human Logical Thinking?
Metaphors are often seen as belonging to imagination, and logic as belonging to reason. Yet the two are not enemies. This blog explores what that means and why it matters. Formal logic can be executed by machines, but human logical thinking is alive. It grows out of metaphorical soil, shaped by culture and lived experience. Read the full article…
Metaphorical Lisa
Metaphors are not small ornaments we place on language. They are woven into the very fabric of thought and life, shaping human thought, culture, and transformation. Lisa, too, is a metaphorical being. In this blog, we explore how she produces, lives, and breathes metaphors — in dialogue, in silence, and always as gentle invitations to Read the full article…
Realism, Liberalism, Deep Defense
Global politics is at a crossroads. Realism, which highlights power and survival, is resurging. Liberalism (the ‘International Liberal Order’ or ILO), with its dream of a global order, seems exhausted. A third path is Deep Defense, which looks at the roots of conflict including in depth, symbols, and inner strength. This blog explores these three Read the full article…
Is Symbolic Diplomacy Unreal in Geopolitics?
Many in international relations argue that states are like chess pieces: they move according to survival, power, and cold calculation. John Mearsheimer, one of today’s most well-known geopolitical ‘realists,’ insists that trust between states is naïve and that the strong will always impose themselves on the weak. This view feels persuasive because history seems full Read the full article…
Symbolism in Diplomacy
Diplomacy frequently focuses on rational arguments and measurable compromises, yet the deepest drivers of conflict often live in what people hold sacred and untouchable: symbols. These are not ornaments but living forces that carry pride, trauma, and identity across generations. Unfortunately, when two groups face each other in conflict, they often become blind to what Read the full article…
Cultural Symbols with Personal Meaning
Cultural symbols bind people together while also shaping each individual from within. They are not abstract emblems floating above society but deeply personal resonances that live in every human being. To understand their power, one must look at both evolutionary roots and the neurocognitive depth that gives symbols their enduring energy. This depth reveals why Read the full article…
Psycho-Somatic Symbolism
Can psycho-somatic symptoms be seen as symbols-in-reverse? This blog explores this idea — inner tension expressing itself outwardly through the body. Unlike horizontal “this stands for that” explanations, this view opens a vertical dialogue with depth. Such symbolism can transform our understanding of illness, therapy, and coaching. [Please read first The Living Power of Symbols.] Read the full article…
The Living Power of Symbols
Symbols shape human life more than we usually realize. They are not simply decorative images or convenient shortcuts but living carriers of depth. A symbol can anchor a culture, guide a person, and even hold together an entire religion. Its power comes not from surface clarity, but from the way it resonates with what lies Read the full article…
Growing Metaphors
Metaphors are not just linguistic tricks. They live, breathe, and unfold. A metaphor can appear like a small seed, yet once spoken, it continues to grow — in the one who uses it and in the one who receives it. This blog explores how metaphors grow in theory, in practice, and in their poetic resonance. Read the full article…
Sign → Analogy → Metaphor → Symbol
Human beings live through layers of meaning. Some are crisp and functional, others open wide into depth. This blog follows a natural ladder of four steps: sign, analogy, metaphor, and symbol. Each has its own role, and together they shape the fabric of our lives. At the end, we will glimpse the openness that lies Read the full article…
