For the ancient Romans, the res publica were matters that had a direct impact upon the public domain, the administration of the state, or that were of public interest, which means that they were important for all members of the community.
Many of my publications deal with matters that are of high public interest while the present public debate suggests that they concern only minority groups or certain individuals who are different from the herd. While I show that we are all concerned, and that solutions can only be found when problems are embraced, not when they are discarded out and denied.
In fact, my stand on these issues is that they are treated irresponsibly by most of our politicians today and that the public, even more so, reacts on these issues in an ambiguous, immature and angst-ridden way, a way that shows a total lack of true information on these matters, information namely that is not distorted by a right-wing agenda and propaganda, but that is matter-of-fact and truly scientific. Among these res publica are:
- Accepting and developing personal talents and gifts through potential astrology;
- Handling our inner selves and intuitions, and developing our creative potential;
- Living in a balanced way, so that left-brain and right-brain capacities work in synch;
- Accepting without moralistic distortion all that is natural in us and around us;
- Solving conflict through holistic science, direct perception and total communication;
- Preventing co-dependence and emotional abuse through permissive education;
- Reforming education so that it respects the emosexual needs of children;
- Healing sexual sadism through Emosexcoaching;
- Healing trauma and abuse through life authoring and bioenergy treatment;
- Developing soul values through an integrative worldview;
- Progressing human consciousness through a psychological revolution;
- Applying peace research and the eight dynamic patterns of living for a new society;
- And much more ...
