  One year after the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the war has exacerbated the rift between Russia and the "collective West".
  While Western governments have been steadfast in punishing Russia for the invasion, other countries around the world have been more ambiguous, at times even choosing to side with Moscow politically or economically. These dynamics have revived the idea of a shift towards
  multipolarity along an anti-Western trajectory. Are we really heading in that direction? Are we facing increasing fragmentation due to the war or a re-consolidation of longstanding alliances? What principles underlie the formation of these blocs? What are the consequences of these dynamics for global security and the global economy?
  This Report aims to shed light on these questions, while also outlining the war's possible future implications for the Russian Federation, the "West", and the international order.

  Book Summary of The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success by Deepak Chopra 
   
  The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success: A Practical Guide to the Fulfillment of Your Dreams by Deepak Chopra 
   
  About 
  The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success is a classic book by Deepak Chopra. Chopra has a way of taking deep spiritual concepts and simplifying them, offering you just the right metaphors and examples to help you grasp the ideas. And because of how easy it is to understand (relative to most spiritual texts) and apply the principles outlined by Chopra, practically anyone can learn from the Big Ideas in this book. The main idea behind the book is to develop a symbiotic relationship between spiritual success + financial success… the idea that the two don’t jive well with one another is often the cause of either moral or financial distress for a lot of people. Hopefully, this summary can help shed light on how important it is to marry these two types of success—spiritual as well as financial. 
   
  Tweetable Summary  
  There’s an easier way to get what you want from life—all you’ve gotta do is get in sync with nature + the universe.

  Outlines of Pyrrhonism

  Sextus Empiricus

  • 0

  • 0

  Throughout history philosophers have sought to define, understand, and delineate concepts important to human well-being. One such concept is knowledge. Many philosophers believed that absolute, certain knowledge, is possible—that the physical world and ideas formulated about it could be given solid foundation unaffected by the varieties of mere opinion. 
   
  Sextus Empiricus stands as an example of the skeptic school of thought whose members believed that knowledge was either unattainable or, if a genuine possibility, the conditions necessary to achieve it were next to impossible to satisfy. In other words, in the absence of complete knowledge, one must make do with the information provided by an imperfect world and conveyed to the mind through sense impressions that can often deceive us. Throughout his life Sextus Empiricus entered into intellectual combat with those who confidently claimed to possess indubitable knowledge. For skeptics, the best one can hope to achieve is a reasonable suspension of judgment—remaining ever mindful that claims to knowledge require careful scrutiny, thoughtful analysis, and critical review if we are to prevent ourselves and others from plunging headlong into mistaken notions.
