The mistery and the seduction of thought: an unendless dialogue between shared ideas

Imagine
I NTRODUCTION: Universal thought, in its broad dimension, has always been best expressed by the unadulterated dialogue of responsible consciousnesses for which the ideas have been fully assumed. Ultimately, as Jakob Böhme also stated, pure thought can only become profound through the meeting of at least two responsible consciousnesses who will sit down at the same table to split the thread in four. This explains, for example, the existence of the agora in ancient Greece in which the master would open the box of a broad discussion so that the disciples and the curious could explore it without ceasing by formulating questions and expressing thoughts. These intellectual and dialogical acts carried out on the stage of thought ultimately led to what Socrates called the maieutic method, that is, the revelation of truths that we do not know that we know. In other words, the dialogue of ideas will always lead us to reevaluate the simplest and most banal aspects of our existence but which in fa...

Întâlnirea Trump-Putin: de la speranta la eşec. Articol scris de Maria Rătescu

Imagine
Articolul de fata prezinta o analiza concreta si obiectiva a intalnirii ce a avut loc recent in Alaska intre presedintele american Donald Trump si cel rus Vladimir Putin. Autoarea studiului de fata este Maria Rătescu, eleva in clasa a XII-a in cadrul Liceului International King George din Bucuresti, da dovada o capacitate impresionanta de sinteza cu privire la un eveniment de importanta globala, iar felul in care se apleaca asupra unor concepte politice cheie demonstreaza pertinenta analitica ce sta la baza analizelor sale. Summitul desfasurat pe 15 august 2025 la Anchorage, Alaska, intre presedintele Statelor Unite, Donald Trump, si presedintele rus, Vladimir Putin, a fost unul asteptat cu interes, dar care nu a adus rezultatele diplomatice pe care multi le anticipau. In ciuda decorului spectaculos si a atmosferei atent regizate, discutiile nu au produs un acord concret privind incheierea unui armistitiu in Ucraina, iar conferinta de presa finala, extrem de scurta, a confirmat absenta...

El camino hacia la ortodoxia. Entrevista de Tudor Petcu con Padre Rafail Dario Padilla

Imagine
1.) Antes que nada, me gustaría que hable un poco sobre usted y sobre su conversión a la Ortodoxia, para que nuestros lectores descubran su personalidad.  2.) ¿Cuál es el cambio más importante en su vida desde que se volvise ortodoxo?   3.) ¿Cree que la Iglesia Ortodoxa podría considerarse un tipo de hospital para las almas heridas?   4.) Por favor describa en pocas palabras cómo es la vida ortodoxa en Columbia.   5.) ¿Cree que la ortodoxia columbiana podría florecer en el futuro y, de ser así, cómo?   6.) Dado que ere un convertido a la Ortodoxia, ¿cómo puede la Ortodoxia en su opinión convertirse en una forma de vida? No menos importante, ¿cuál sería su testimonio para los individuos heteorodoxos que intentan explorar más el horizonte ortodoxo?   7.) ¿Cuál sería su principal argumento para decir que toda la verdad solo se puede encontrar en la Iglesia Ortodoxa?   8.) En su opinión, ¿qué pensadores o representantes ortodo...

Entrevista de Tudor Petcu con el Padre Viictor Garcìa (Sevilla) sobre la su convercíon a la fe ortodoxa

Imagine
PRIMEROS AÑOS Mi búsqueda espiritual comienza desde pequeño. Como la gran mayoría de los españoles, fui bautizado en la Iglesia católica romana en la ciudad donde nací, una pequeña ciudad de interior llamada Jaén (España). Durante mi infancia, fui educado en una familia donde primaba el amor dentro de la familia y donde en mayor o menor grado, Dios se hacía presente tanto en mi padre como en mi madre. La educación que recibí siendo niño se realizó en un colegio religioso igualmente católico romano, dentro de la corriente salesiana en la ciudad de Sevilla, ciudad en la que prácticamente he vivido toda la vida. Quizás influenciado tanto por el propio colegio, como por mi propia familia, durante mi educación primeriza y durante algunos años, participaba de forma más o menos continua en la iglesia durante los domingos como “monaguillo” en lo que se llamaba por aquel entonces la “Misa de los niños”. Es en esta época, cuando recuerdo que durante una misa, puedo considerar que Dios me habló y...

Attack in the Philippines: interview with Prof. Tudor Petcu By Nicola Comparato

Imagine
Welcome to the exclusive interview with Prof. Tudor Petcu, an authority in the field of philosophy of religions, member of the Board of Directors of the Dimitrie Cantemir Association and professor at the University of Bucharest. With his extensive academic experience and expertise in political philosophy, Prof. Petcu will guide us through an illuminating analysis of ISIS's recent claim for the attack in the Philippines, offering a unique and in-depth perspective. Before we dive into the interview with Prof. Tudor Petcu, it is essential to understand the key events surrounding the attack. ISIS recently claimed responsibility for an attack that occurred during a Catholic mass at Mindanao State University in Marawi, Philippines. This dastardly act caused the loss of four lives and left 42 others injured. The city of Marawi was already the scene of a prolonged battle in 2017 between government forces and militants linked to the Islamic State. The recent violence has sparked condemnator...

Ang eulogy ng dignidad at pagmamahal

Imagine
Ang aking buhay, kahit hanggang ngayon, ay minarkahan ng isang serye ng mga nakamamatay na pagtatagpo at kapansin-pansing mga larawan ng kontemporaryong mundo na aking pinag-usapan sa hindi mabilang na mga pagkakataon. Karamihan sa aking pagkatao ay dahil sa mga naging ilaw ng aking kamalayan, uhaw sa kaalaman at katotohanan. Sa huli, nabubuhay tayo sa isang mundo ng ideyational magic, pinakamahusay na kinakatawan ng nilalaman ng paghahayag na pakikipagtagpo sa Iba bilang ang kahanga-hangang pagtuklas ng sariling sarili. Iyon ang dahilan kung bakit, pinahihintulutan ang aking sarili na mapasok ng misteryo ng paghaharap sa Iba, na tinukoy sa kumplikadong kalikasan nito, nagsimula akong mag-navigate nang higit pa at higit pa sa karagatan ng mahusay na mga tanong at sagot. Ngunit isang tunay na espesyal na pagtatagpo, na kumplikadong nagpabago sa abot-tanaw ng aking mga pananaw na inalipin ng pagsinta ng rasyonalistikong pagmamataas, ay ang taong naging Patnubay ng aking puso, ang taong n...

The eulogy of dignity and love

Imagine
  My life, at least until now, has been marked by a series of fateful encounters and remarkable portraits of the contemporary world that I have talked about on countless occasions. Much of my becoming is due to those who have become the lights of my consciousness, thirsting for knowledge and truth. Ultimately, we live in a world of ideational magic, best represented by the content of the revelatory encounter with the Other as the phenomenal discovery of one's own self. That is precisely why, allowing myself to be penetrated by the mystery of the confrontation with the Other, defined in its complex nature, I began to navigate more and more on the ocean of great questions and answers. But a truly special encounter, which complexly changed the horizon of my perceptions enslaved by the passion of rationalistic arrogance, is the one with the person who became the Guide of my heart, the person whom I decided to follow forever, regardless of the situations we faced could face. Her name is...
