Consciousness Science

Lo que estamos presenciando hoy es la mercantilización directa de nuestras experiencias: en el mercado compramos cada vez menos productos (objetos materiales) que queremos poseer, y adquirimos cada vez más experiencias de vida -experiencias de sexo, gastronomía, comunicación, consumo cultural, que forman parte de un estilo de vida -. No compramos productos por su utilidad ni tampoco como símbolos de estatus; los compramos para obtener la experiencia que nos brindan, los consumimos para hacer que nuestra vida sea más placentera y significativa.

No-one is perfect. But that doesn't stop us from imagining ourselves as smarter, funnier, richer or thinner and how much happier we would then be. Love for Imperfect Things, by the best-selling Korean monk Haemin Sunim, shows how the path to happiness and peace of mind includes not only strong relationships with others but also letting go of worries about ourselves. Packed with his typical spiritual wisdom, Sunim teaches us to embrace our flaws rather than trying to overcome them and demonstrates that love has very little to do with perfection.

What if everything you believe about memory, identity, and reality was not only unreliable—but designed to be? We trust our thoughts to shape our choices. We trust our memories to hold our stories. And we trust reality to remain consistent. But what if those elements—thought, memory, reality—are not only malleable, but part of a system you were never meant to question? In the world of Perception Transformation, reality is no longer fixed. It bends under pressure, shifts with thought, and folds when truth is pushed too hard. At the center of this transformation is a therapy—a radical...

In the December 1784 publication of the Berlinische Monatsschrift (Berlin Monthly), edited by Friedrich Gedike and Johann Erich Biester, Kant replied to the question posed a year earlier by the Reverend Johann Friedrich Zöllner, who was also an official in the Prussian government.

For the weary souls aboard the crippled starship Odyssey, the emerald gleam on the horizon was a siren song of hope. After weeks adrift in the cold, unforgiving void, the sight of a planet teeming with vibrant life was nothing short of a miracle. Through scratched viewports, they beheld a world painted in hues that surpassed any terrestrial paradise – amethystine trees reaching for skies of liquid gold, sapphire blossoms cascading down verdant slopes, and crystalline rivers snaking through meadows of scarlet grass. The very air that vented into their recycled atmosphere carried the ...

Cuando su marido la abandonó, Rosemary Altea se dio cuenta de que el miedo había sido su compañero desde la cuna. Miedo a un padre con la severidad propia del militar y a una madre incapaz de mostrar ternura; miedo a los rostros y las voces que poblaban las noches de su niñez, a las extrañas percepciones que la estremecían, a todo cuanto la acercara a su abuela Eliza. No fue fácil para ella aceptar que poseía un don para comunicarse con los espíritus.
