Time is precious. I get it. We all have things to do and places to go.

By the cultural editorial team

In the world of contemporary art, the names that remain engraved in memory are not only those who manage to exhibit their works in international galleries, but those who succeed in creating a new language, a universe that goes beyond the borders of language, nationality, or geography.

"Your silence didn't mean you had nothing to say, it mean you were protecting your peace!"

Choosing silence in the face of conflict or negativity is often seen as a sign of weakness or an inability to respond, but it is, in fact, a powerful act of self-preservation. It's the conscious decision to withhold your words,…

Dharma is life. Life is dharma. Dharma is good life. Good life is Dharma. Goodness has unlimited breadth and depth. It includes generosity, which counters stinginess. It includes integrity, which counters dishonesty. It includes tolerance, which counters anger. It includes perseverance, which counters laziness. It includes…

Cultivate the habit of dropping into the present moment. Do this repeatedly every day. When we are in the present moment, both the past and the future are quiet.

 i am no expert on comets but its all very busy comet-wise around our sun at this time. i understand that seven different comets are visiting our inner solar system this autumn. Most comets belong in and around our solar system but two of the current bunch appear to have come from outside of our system.

in 2017 the first object arrived and passed through our system from another system. The first time anything came from real outer space that we have observed. Now we have two…

In Tibetan, the word for meditation is ‘gom.’ It means to remember. To remember virtue instead of harm. Remembering virtue counters our tendency to respond with a knee-jerk dysfunctional reaction, like anger, jealousy, pride or insecurity. This is core Dharma practice. All our preconceived ideas, recognized and often unrecognized, get…

"We really on borrowed time. Choose people that choose you, and let everyone else be."

Life is a precious and fleeting gift, a journey on borrowed time that reminds us to cherish what truly matters. In this limited span, our energy and love are the most valuable treasures we hold.

In 1954, Sadako developed swellings on her body and was diagnosed with leukemia (her mother referred to it as "an atom bomb disease"). Sadako spent her time in a…

WHAT AM I ?            cried the raindrop

as it splashed into the muddy pond

The pond flowed into a creek

Asking            What am I ?

Twisting and turning the creek became a river

Wondering What am I ?

Quietly              under a golden moon

the river met the…

"Sometimes people can't see what is wrong in their actions because they are surrounded by those who made it feel normal." (Toby Mac)

It's a powerful and often sobering truth that our perception of right and wrong is deeply shaped by our environment.

Sometimes, people are unable to see the flaws in their actions…

"You'll end up disappointed if you think people will do for you as you do for them. Unfortunately, not everyone has the same heart as you."

It's a lesson many of us learn through quiet heartache: the inherent disappointment that can arise when we expect others to reciprocate our efforts, our kindness, or our loyalty in equal…

"You cannot heal in the same environment that made you sick."

Healing requires a shift, a fundamental change of scenery, both internal and external.

Staying in the environment that caused the sickness is like trying to mend a broken bone while repeatedly banging it against the same wall. It's not about blame, but about…
