We Don’t Have the Luxury of Doubt About God
We Don’t Have the Luxury of Doubt About God We imagine doubt is neutral—an airy waiting room where we can linger until clarity arrives. But when it comes to God, doubt is not a neutral room. It is a delay with a cost. Life is brief, suffering is real, love needs our hands today.

And it is harming us.

Chili's of Peru
Peru’s ajíes are the backbone of its cuisine, painting the coast, Andes, and Amazon with color, aroma, and heat.

Vitarka Mudra: the Gesture of Teaching and Discernment
Vitarka Mudra: the Gesture of Teaching and Discernment Vitarka mudra is one of Buddhism’s most recognizable hand gestures. Seen in statues and paintings across Asia, it depicts the Buddha or bodhisattvas in the act of sharing insight, engaging inquiry, and transmitting the Dharma. The thumb and index finger join to form a circle, while the remaining fingers extend upward; the hand is typically raised to chest level, palm facing outward or slightly sideways.
