Open Science is the great cultural change in academia today. Through the practice of Open Science, the university wants to anchor itself more firmly in society by making the major societal challenges at local, regional and global levels more central to education and research and thus be able to give more back to society.

From this perspective, the question at the heart of this book is: how will the university develop in its core tasks of education, research and societal impact? The universit...

The only thing we do not seem to be polarizing on these days is the worry that we are polarizing. To what extent are these worries really justified? In the public as well as scientific debate, much is still unclear about what kind of polarization is taking place, who is polarizing and why, and what the consequences of polarization are. By focusing on the role of social identification and the particular importance of education in our schooled society, I aim to clarify the “what,” “who,�...

Having been thrown in contact with the many problems surrounding the education of the embalmer, the authors have gained many ideas as to just how to place the information...

I made a conscious decision to educate myself upon realizing the influence of Western education on our thinking. Unknowingly, I found myself immersed in the teachings of the occult mystery university. It wasn't until two decades later, while pursuing my bachelor's degree, that I fully comprehended my journey into this realm. I have now mastered the study of ancestral memory and am eager to share this wisdom with the world.

If the idea of non-duality is correct, then experiencing life with a non-dual mode of perception would logically be the way to resolve about any issue.
