Everything is the other way around

We are sleepwalkers fed with illusions and lies.
Almost any topic you might be interested in, if you dig deep enough, you will find out that everything you knew is the other way around.
Some people believe in evolution, others in creation. What if I tell you both are bullshit?
It would be hilarious if it would not be sad and alarming.
Till 1958, for roughly 2000 years, the dominant theory was based on the Bible’s Genesis creation narrative with no notable alternatives at our disposal.
Things changed, and the world changed in 1848 with Read more Everything is the other way around ›

Sunrise. 8.12.2024. The painting on the wall is called 1793 – MMXXIII, and I painted it last year. Acrylic dye on canvas. There are times for simplicity and times for complexity. Some said this was too crowded, while others said it was too esoteric and they didn’t understand it. It is just a painting. And now a snapshot of a moment. Art generates art. Sometimes, life happens, and we only have to seize the moment.

1793 – MMXXIII. Acrylic on canvas, 30×40 cm (11.8×15.7 inch).
Let me know what you think.

You can purchase the painting for 1,999.00 USD – shipping included.

Thank you!



Size: 30×40 cm (11.8×15.7 inch)

Details: Acrylic on canvas

I will start by quoting (again) Gurdjieff, one of my teachers.

“This is almost all that can be said in general about the ‘stairway’ and about the ‘way,’ because there are different ways. We have spoken of this before. And, for instance, on the fourth way there are special conditions which cannot be on the other ways. Thus the conditions for ascending the stairway on the fourth way are that a man cannot ascend to a higher step until he places another man upon his own step. The other, in his turn, must Read more Tutoring ›

The Labyrinth of Knowledge

In the heart of Bucharest is a small warehouse-like bookstore exclusively packed with books printed in English. Although the store is wildly unorganised, the prices are pretty decent, and it is worth spending some time digging for intellectual gold.
I bought all kinds of books, from literature to esoteric matters.
A couple of months ago, I bought a book about David Bowie, “Why Bowie Matters,” written by Will Brooker, an English academic.
I’m not going to Read more Narrowing or widening ›

There is a significant yet generally overlooked aspect regarding the oldest known Tarot deck, the Visconti Tarot: the Major Arcana cards did not have any captions, and no names nor numbers were featured on them.
It is quite an odd feature if we accept the mainstream theory that these cards were primarily designed for entertainment and playing various card games.

The squares of Understanding

People often misidentify knowledge for understanding. Some people know many things, but they don’t understand anything.
It was a time when people desperately collected diplomas and certifications, and some still do. It allows them and other people to call them experts or specialists.
Gurdjieff noted: “Knowledge is one thing, understanding is another thing. People often confuse these concepts and do not Read more The squares of understanding ›
