In the Spring of 1988, by arrangement I met a beautiful woman whose interests lay in the design of destiny, miracles, and me—an average looking man, whose naiveté had been savaged while working in television news, in places like San Salvador and Beirut. Given our divergent views on the nature of our world, this meeting was a predictably bizarre exchange of explanatory experiences, during which Bonnie dangled mystical intrigues from her novel-in-progress to secure my help adapting it for th...

Volume 2 of the Stalking series: A mystic explains specifically how mankind has reached an evolutionary cul-de-sac, to an apprentice whose beliefs, projected and unchecked onto mankind’s behaviors, are apocalyptic. The absurd circumstance into which I was unsuspectingly recruited, recounted in “Stalking the Average Man,” evolved into an intricate teaching scheme that mystics of particular lineages call stalking. In this instance, the term does not refer to the aberrant persecutio...

In "Lesser Hippias," Plato engages in a notable dialectical exploration, primarily through the character of Socrates, as he converses with Hippias of Elis. This dialogue, set in the context of Socratic irony, delves into themes of knowledge, virtue, and the nature of beauty.
