Alexiskarpouzos Stories

We are all members of humanity, and we all belong to the global biosphere. We are members of oikos, the house of earth, which is the Greek root of the word 'ecology', and as such we should behave as the other members of the house behave - the plants, animals and microorganisms that form the vast network of relationships that we call the web of life

We are in the midst of a sudden "bifurcation" in the evolutionary trajectory of a complex dynamic system. Bifurcation creates crisis, and crisis, as we know, is both danger and opportunity. Either way, it is a prelude to change. The challenge is to choose the change that leads to a sane and flourishing world.

Philosopher and Spiritual teacher alexis karpouzos invite you to consider the beauty of the unknown, paradoxical and unsolved aspects of your life, and discover a place of deep inner trust, patience, and profound Knowing... even when life circumstances and the world around you seem to be changing fast. As we walk the rocky path of healing and awakening, we are sometimes faced with states of disappointment, doubt, insecurity, and confusion. It can be so tempting to run away from these disturbing visitors, and seek security outside of ourselves, distracting ourselves from the pain, turning towards our own particular addictions - food, drink, drugs, shopping, internet, even disembodied spiritual practice. Is there a deeper security of the heart? A deeper certainty that can be found in the stillness of our own Being? Can we lean back into the ache inside?

We live in a time of cosmic bifurcation, we live in a time of unprecedented existential threats to life on Earth, including climate change, deforestation, food insecurity, and wildlife numbers in free fall, human overpopulation. the society is in turmoil.
