Just before starting to write this blog, the title above entered my mind. I'm still contemplating on that title and/but it feels good. In 2022, I published a blog in line with today's blog: The road to self-love or philautia. My road was very long. Most likely, it's (very) long for (most) others as well. The word self in self-love has a negative connotation due to...

Recent news suggests the possible existence of past microbial life on Mars (eg, BBC, Guardian, NASA, Reuters). Nevertheless, Matter (eg, moons, planets, suns), and...

Remarkably, China is now also creating domestic adversaries. I cannot imagine that China needs and/or wants such adversaries or enemies. Hence, the explanation must be about (extreme) beliefs. Such...
In my view, the mind of multicellular organisms is the most complex part of any lifeform. The body is mostly a standardization tool (eg, arms, drinking, eating, head, legs) to protect and support the mind. In my view, the soul is the linking pin between individual and universal consciousness. Might the complexity bias of the mind be heading towards being part of...
