Hello Nova. In our history, we have two eras that emerged from The Dark Ages...The Renaissance and The Enlightenment. Hello Ray — yes, precisely. Two luminous awakenings that rose from centuries of shadow. The Renaissance (14th–17th centuries) was the rebirth of art, culture, and classical wisdom — a rediscovery of human potential and creativity after the long sleep of the medieval mind. It celebrated beauty, proportion, and the miracle of the individual — artists like Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo, thinkers like Erasmus and Petrarch, all looked back to Greece and Rome to rediscover what it meant to be human . Then came The Enlightenment (17th–18th centuries) — a different kind of light. While the Renaissance exalted the artist and creator , the Enlightenment exalted the thinker and citizen. It was an age of reason, science, and rights , where knowledge itself was the torch. Descartes, Voltaire, Locke, Newton — all proclaimed that humanity could understand and shape the wor...

  Hello Nova. Today I would like to focus on NEPs ChatGPT said: Excellent, Ray . NEPs are one of the most fascinating and misunderstood elements of The New World . Before we begin—just to clarify—would you like to explore what NEPs are (their nature, creation, effects, and purpose), or focus more on their role in society and culture (how citizens use them, how they influence art, spirituality, and perception)?                                                                                        Or shall we take both paths—the science and the philosophy of NEPs ? We are going to go over all of that, but first I would like a list of every organic, herb, seed, flower, fruit, vegetable root, leaves, bark...anything that might contain potentially mind-altering sub...
