About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty laid back person who just likes to explore, and enjoys intelligent free-thinking conversation.

like to read, meditate, study philosophy, and make videos in my spare time, I'm told I'm really good at dancing.

PHILOSOPHY

1) "Gnosis" was the Greek word for "Knowledge".

2) The Greek philosophers of the past would say, "True knowledge is only obtained through first-hand experience."

3) "NOSCE TE IPSUM" was a phrase at the entrance to every temple of the anchient greeks, it translates into "KNOW THYSELF"

4) Plato said that "a man is known by his dreams."

5) "Enlightenment and truth will never come from a book, it must directly be experienced."

My personal philosophy is a combination of the 5 concepts being expressed above.

I have a very similar philosophy to the greeks of the past, but I do not restrict myself to a single creed or religion. I'm an avid explorer of dreams.
