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.

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.

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…

Generosity ‘from the Inside Out’
What if true generosity isn’t about the act of giving but about what flows naturally from within? When generosity emerges from a place of inner abundance, it feels like an expression of who we are.

Human Meditation and Artificial Intelligence
At first glance, meditation and A.I. seem worlds apart — one is deeply human and introspective, the other fast and computational. Yet both revolve around pattern recognition. Meditation reveals how thoughts arise within a vast web of neuronal activity, while A.I. detects and predicts patterns through deep learning. If meditation uncovers the emergence of thoughts Read the full article…
Meditation: Purposeful Purposelessness
Meditation is a paradox. It has no goal, and yet, it holds the potential to change everything. In meditation, we aren’t escaping from life or pausing it — we’re stepping into its essence.
