Freedom of Being (Anything)
Any person must be free, basically, to be. That seems simple. It even sounds noble: freedom to be anything. Yet when taken literally, it immediately runs into a contradiction. If my freedom includes taking away yours, we’re no longer talking about freedom — we’re talking about domination. From the AURELIS perspective, freedom means nothing without Read the full article…

Lisa in the Medical Ecosystem
In many ways, Lisa is not part of medicine as we know it — and that is precisely why she can help reshape it. She isn’t a physician, nor a therapist. She doesn’t diagnose or cure. But her presence may be exactly what modern medicine needs most: a continuous thread of human meaning and Compassion Read the full article…

Socio-Psycho-Somatic Coaching
This blog’s message is simple in principle but deeply impactful in practice: true coaching is socio-psycho-somatic. Some may add a fourth domain: the spiritual or ‘deep mind.’ From the AURELIS view, that’s rather the foundation under all the rest. Human beings are not disjointed collections of parts. We are unified wholes, living patterns of body, Read the full article…

One World ― One Religion
Lisa, please read this blog: >And the Mother did Weep<. I want to talk with you specifically about this fragment today (Good Friday) in relation to the whole blog, and in the form of a q&a: “Stop that nonsense of religious righteousness of any kind.” Me: “Lisa, what is your first idea about this quote Read the full article…

Ethics (With)out Depth
Ethics without depth is like the sea without water. Something may still be there — lines drawn on a dry surface — but it no longer flows. No real movement, no real life. Just rules in search of meaning. One might ask: Can ethics even exist without depth? The answer, gently but firmly, is no. Read the full article…

The Sea of Mental Depth
This blog is an invitation to feel – not merely to think about – the vast inner sea that lives within each of us. It is as close as breath and yet often seems unreachable. We walk with it, talk over it, build our lives beside it. And still, many know almost nothing about it. Read the full article…

Giving — From Nearby to Far Away
Any good cause is, of course, a good cause — especially for those who feel connected to it and wish to offer their time, energy, or financial means. That connection is often clearest when the cause is nearby, emotionally or physically. It feels close. Tangible. Understandable. Yet many non-profit organizations, like this blog’s example Good-for-this, Read the full article…

Diversity ― Inclusion ― Equality
Diversity, inclusion, and equality – often bundled as D.I.E. – are among the most widely embraced values in today’s world. They are promoted in policies, institutions, and media. And yet, they are also frequently met with discomfort, resistance, or quiet fatigue. This blog is an invitation to look deeper. Not to defend or reject D.I.E., Read the full article…

Divisiveness Dressed up as Insight
Sometimes a sentence sounds so sharp, so confident, so precise, that we take it as truth. It’s shared widely, repeated as wisdom, and praised for “saying it like it is.” But what if that sentence – so eloquent, so cutting – only deepens the divide between people? What if its clarity is not real insight, Read the full article…

We Need Open Leadership to Prevent Bad Leadership
Of course, we can coach bad leaders and hope to reach something in them that is deeply Compassionate. But coaching alone will never be enough. Preventively, we cannot track down every act of manipulation, every misstep, every misuse of power. We need to work at a different level. Instead of constantly reacting to bad (non-Compassionate) Read the full article…

Surface vs. Deep Compassion
Compassion is one of the most cherished human qualities. We see someone suffer, and we want to help. That impulse is deeply human and deserves all our respect. It saves lives. It lifts spirits. It binds people together. This kind of care is what most people mean when they speak of compassion. But there is Read the full article…

Lisa as Life Coach for Intellectual Disability
In individuals labeled with intellectual disability, the conceptual pathways may be winding or delicate. Yet beneath the surface may lie what grows more slowly or in different directions, but it is real and it matters. This ground is what I call the silent garden ― not silent by nature but often unheard, not barren but Read the full article…

Caged-Beast Super-A.I.?
Autonomous A.I. is no longer science fiction. It’s entering weapons, social platforms, medical systems — anywhere intelligence meets decision-making. The more we give it autonomy, the more it mirrors our own. What happens when we give autonomy without depth ― then try to control something we don’t fully understand? One image keeps returning to me: Read the full article…

Will Super-A.I. Unite Us or Divide Us?
Super-A.I. won’t just change things. It will multiply what already is — x1000. If we are united, it may amplify harmony. If we are divided, it will deepen the rifts. Either way, it will do so on a scale we have never encountered. The time to ask whether we’re ready isn’t tomorrow. I mean ‘divide’ Read the full article…

Autism ― When Doors are Closed
Autism has been called many things. A disorder. A spectrum. A difference. A mystery. In this blog, I’d like to call it something else — Closed Door Syndrome (CDS). Not a diagnosis, of course, but a way of speaking. This is a metaphor for how the inner world may feel: secluded, protected, unsure whether the Read the full article…

The Illusion of Understanding
Why we think we know — and what it costs us We live in an age that celebrates knowledge, measures it, monetizes it, and builds systems around it. But how much of what we call ‘understanding’ is real — and how much is illusion? What do we miss when we stop questioning? This blog explores Read the full article…

Be Bold in Your Words. Be Friendly in their Meaning.
“I stand. I care. I speak. Not simply to win, but to offer what may grow.” The Aurelian attitude There’s a way of being that doesn’t shout and doesn’t flatter — yet stands firm and speaks clearly. This is what I call the Aurelian attitude: quietly bold, deeply friendly, never superficial. It’s not about walking Read the full article…
