Compassion: Evolutionary or Universal?
Is Compassion just a product of natural selection, a clever survival mechanism that helped us cooperate and thrive? Or is it something woven into the very fabric of existence? While science often frames Compassion as an adaptive trait, deeper reflection shows it may be a fundamental reality rather than just a tool for survival. If Read the full article…

Who Wants to Win?
Winning is often seen as the ultimate goal. This fuels the drive to succeed, to dominate, to be the best in business, politics, relationships, and even within our own minds. But who, exactly, wants to win? And what does winning really mean? At first glance, Compassion might seem like the opposite of winning. It appears Read the full article…

Never Change a Habit
Instead, let the habit change you. We’ve been told that to improve our lives, we need to break bad habits and form good ones. The idea seems simple — identify a habit, replace it with a better one, and repeat until it sticks. But anyone who has tried to forcefully change a habit knows how Read the full article…

What’s in a Habit?
Habits are patterns of thought, emotion, and perception woven deep into the structure of our minds. They shape our lives in ways we often don’t realize. Some habits feel like second nature, but the real question is why any habit exists in the first place. What is it doing there? What does it want? Instead Read the full article…

Are you happy?
The question “Are you happy?” can feel strangely unsettling, as if we should have an answer ready. But what if happiness isn’t something to achieve, but something that arises, expands, and flows? It’s something we all seek, yet the moment we try to grasp it, it often slips through our fingers. I remember a conversation Read the full article…

What Makes Compassion Training Effective?
An effective Compassion training invites Compassion to naturally arise from profoundly within. It nurtures the right mental conditions, allowing participants to trust the strength of their own inner depth. Deep Compassion (with capital C ― a complex phenomenon, much more than pity) is not a skill to be learned, something external that can be taught Read the full article…

About ‘Compassion Fatigue’
On top of sheer workload, many believe Compassion fatigue happens because people care too much. But that’s not entirely true. People don’t burn out from being too Compassionate — but rather from giving in a way that doesn’t replenish them. Compassion should be self-renewing. When it flows naturally, it deepens, enriches, and even strengthens the Read the full article…

Training vs. Growing Compassion
Many believe Compassion can be trained like a skill. Follow the right steps, use the right words, and – voilà! – you’re Compassionate. But if that were true, why does forced Compassion often feel hollow, both to the giver and the receiver? The truth is, Compassion cannot be installed like a program — it must Read the full article…

Compassion without Depth?
In the AURELIS view, Compassion – written with a capital ‘C’ – is something far deeper than mere kindness or empathy. It is a process that involves rationality and depth to their fullest extent. Without this depth, what many call ‘compassion’ may become sentimentality or even a tool for control. This raises an important question: Read the full article…

Are We Ready for ‘Deep Dive’ in Politics?
‘Deep dive’ in politics must happen — globally, across parties, across ideologies. If we don’t cultivate political depth, democracy will remain fragile. If we do, it can become wiser than ever before. This is the real political challenge of our era. Are we ready? Are our leaders ready? If not, we must make them ready. Read the full article…

Compassion Lives in Details
Compassion is often imagined as something grand — a sweeping force of kindness. But it lives in the smallest things ― a fleeting glance, a gentle pause, the weight of silence in the right moment. Strip away the details, and Compassion becomes an abstraction without depth. If we want to find real Compassion, we must Read the full article…

Humanity Contra A.I.?
This blog is not about Compassionate A.I. (C.A.I.). Quite the opposite. It’s about the kind of A.I. that lacks Compassion — the kind that, if left unchecked, could become the greatest threat humanity has ever faced. For simplicity, let’s just call it A.I. The fundamental mistake many make is believing that we can control A.I. Read the full article…

AURELIS vs. Gnosticism
AURELIS and Gnosticism both emphasize inner awakening. They agree that true transformation doesn’t come from obedience to outside forces. But while they meet at this deep insight, they ultimately take very different paths. Gnosticism is built on the idea that we are trapped in an illusion, caught in a world of deception and suffering, created Read the full article…
