This issue is dedicated to Delia Steinberg Guzmán, the International President of New Acropolis from 1991 till 2020, who passed away peacefully on August 15, 2023. A few years ago, she said in an interview: “The meaning and purpose of life is to be found in this question: What can I do, now that I am here? What can I improve, now that I am here? How can I help, now that I am here?” For us, Delia exemplified this approach - someone who dedicated her life to fulfil her vocation, to help others and to improve the world.
Today, as the world hurtles forward in its relentless pursuit of ‘growth’, have we perhaps forgotten to question the larger purpose of the human journey? The path of philosophy is the invitation to rediscover this. Delia said, “Philosophy is everything; it is everyday life, it is the meaning of life, it is the daily chores, it is the search for moral principles, it is the transformation of a society.”
True to this prescript, some articles herein showcase that whether in the practice of a profession, pursuit of a hobby or learning of an art form, there is of course an aspect of gaining the relevant knowledge, or mastery over the techniques or the process. But perhaps there is something beyond this, that would allow us to go deeper and bring meaning, not just to certain actions to but to our life itself - developing a philosophical point of view.

Let us Discover. Awaken. Transform.
