These are the most edgy ancestors of post-postmodern spirituality, personal growth and wisdom tribes. If you like any of those words, this is for you.

No prior knowledge about these figures or their techniques is needed. Just openness to explore weird histories, peculiar contradictions and the feeling of a new aeon. a

Life stories are the original and perennial source of wisdom transmission.

The Ta***ic Patriarchs series is an invitation into biography as practice.  To go beyond merely gaining knowledge about fascinating lives to also assimilate, interrogate & integrate their worldviews.  Even to taste the fundamental inner exercises of the men who shaped and d

What if beauty is not what you like, but what asks whether your life has become worthy of freedom?

In this four-part course, designer and philosopher Thomas Jockin returns to Plato and Aristotle to explore beauty as memory, virtue, love, attention, and transformation. Together we will ask why beauty has become so diminished in modern life—and why the ancients saw it as one of the highest forces shaping the human soul.

Beauty Changes Your Life: Plato, Aristotle, and the Beautiful

I’d like to warmly invite you to Thomas Jockin’s upcoming Parallax course on beauty, Plato, Aristotle, and the Greek idea of to kalon — the beautiful, the noble, the fine.

The course begins Monday, July 6, 2026, with live sessions on July 6, 13, 20, and 27.

Thomas will explore beauty not simply as taste, aesthetics, or personal preference, but as something that forms attention, educates desire, and asks something of our lives.

We recently had a wonderful Parallax conversation with Thomas and John Vervaeke on beauty, the sacred, and the meaning crisis. John offered this generous endorsement:

“I’ve been very impressed by Thomas. Thank you, Andrew, for bringing us together. I think the course you’re offering, if it’s filled with this wisdom and this reflection and this philosophia, I heartily and wholeheartedly recommend it.”
