Beyond the Peak Experience: What It Takes for Transformation to Hold
A reflection on the four most recent episodes of Co-Creating the Third Attractor The last four conversations in this series brought together people with very different backgrounds: Alexander, filmmaker and writer; Aterah, integrative health researcher and contemplative practitioner; Tom, clinical psychologist and organizer of the ICON conference; and Cordula, author and deep ecology practitioner. They […]
When the Mind Steps Aside – Insights from the conversation with Cordula Frei
Every conversation in this series has added something. Frameworks, strategies, visions, practices. But this conversation with Cordula Frei, the 29th in the series, did something rarer. It slowed everything down and asked a question most of the other conversations had circled without fully landing: what if the third attractor is not something we build, but […]
How We Respond to Personal and Systemic Abuse Defines Who We Are
There are moments when a society has to look at itself without any comfort. This is one of those moments. What’s being revealed goes beyond a series of crimes. It’s a pattern. Power, desire, secrecy, status, and human vulnerability have converged inside a culture that condemns these things publicly while quietly rewarding anyone close to […]
Holding the Tension: Why Non Duality Must Not Erase Good and Evil
One of the most demanding inner capacities of our time is the ability to hold polarities without collapsing them. This is not a fashionable spiritual skill. It is a moral, psychological, and civilizational necessity. We live in a moment where complexity is rising faster than our ability to metabolize it, and the temptation to flatten […]
A Living Experiment Begins: The Third Attractor Laboratory
Today our Third Attractor Laboratory begins.Not as a conference. Not as a theory seminar.But as a living, breathing experiment. Over the past years, I have spoken with more than twenty-five thinkers, practitioners, activists, and sense-makers from very different worlds. Again and again, a similar question appeared beneath all their words: How do we move forward […]
A New Year Invitation
The turn of a year always carries a quiet question. Not what will happen next, but how we will meet what is already coming. As we step into this New Year, I feel less drawn to resolutions and more drawn to responsibility. Not responsibility as burden, but as response ability. The capacity to respond wisely […]
Richard Flyer and the Third Attractor as a Rediscovery
My conversation with Richard Flyer brought a particular depth and sobriety into the Third Attractor inquiry. It grounded the conversation in lived experience, spiritual lineage, and decades of community building work, while refusing both ideological shortcuts and purely conceptual solutions. One of the most important contributions Richard made was to frame the Third Attractor not […]
Ten Values for a World Worth Moving Toward
The Third Attractor is not a blueprint for the future. It is not an ideology, a political program, or a spiritual doctrine. It is a shared orientation that has emerged through conversations with many people, across different disciplines, cultures, and life paths. Again and again, certain values surfaced. Not as slogans, but as lived insights. […]
Stepping Out of the Water We Are Swimming In
A reflection on my conversation with Adrian Wagner My conversation with Adrian Wagner stayed with me long after we ended the call. Not because he offered a new solution or a grand vision for the future, but because he kept pointing to something far more uncomfortable and far more fundamental. He questioned the ground from […]
What 25 Conversations Have Shown Me About the Third Attractor
Over the past months I have sat with twenty five remarkable people and explored what we call the Third Attractor. Each conversation was its own world, shaped by the life, work, and depth of the person sitting across from me. And yet, as different as they were, threads began to appear. Patterns. Shared intuitions. Common […]
