What is Consciousness ?

Thu, 13 Mar 2025 13:32:05 GMT

What is consciousness? Is it just an illusion created by the brain, or is it an immaterial reality beyond matter? 🤯💭

In this audio, we explore Henri Bergson’s ideas on consciousness and duration. Why is it so elusive? Why does it slip away the moment we try to analyze it? And most importantly, how can we truly understand it—not with intelligence, but with intuition?

Through concrete examples and accessible reflections, we dive into the fascinating world of the philosophy of consciousness.

What Does True Love Really Mean ?

Thu, 06 Mar 2025 14:31:06 GMT

Is there someone out there, made just for us — our lost half, waiting to be found so we can finally feel whole? This timeless idea of true love and soulmates runs through our entire culture... but did you know it comes from Plato?

In The Symposium, one of his most beautiful dialogues, Plato stages a series of speeches about love, blending myth, philosophy, and the search for eternity. From Aristophanes' famous myth of split souls to Socrates' spiritual vision of love as a desire for truth rather than the body, this video explores two radically different ways of understanding love — both still shaping our deepest hopes and disappointments today.

Is true love meant to last forever? Or is it just desire doomed to fade? Can we ever love eternally... or only long for eternity?

The debate has been open for 2500 years... and it concerns us all.

Understanding Spinoza's Ethics

Fri, 07 Feb 2025 13:28:22 GMT

What if true happiness lay in understanding the necessity of things? What if freedom wasn’t about making choices, but about aligning ourselves with the eternal order of nature?

In this video, we explore Ethics, the masterpiece of Baruch Spinoza, a philosopher who dared to redefine God, freedom, and human happiness. Through reason, Spinoza invites us to see the world sub specie aeternitatis—under the gaze of eternity—where our individual concerns dissolve into a greater necessity.

Join us as we uncover Spinoza’s radical vision of a life guided by reason, where joy and understanding become the ultimate liberation.
