In Ancient Greece, the Acropolis referred to the sacred centre, that lay higher than the rest of the city. It was a place of inspiration; a bridge that enabled citizens yo connect to the divine, evoking the expression of the higher human virtues. Deriving inspiration from its purpose, The Acropolitan Magazine serves as a tribute to every citizen yearning for these higher principles in all aspects of Life: truth, Beauty, justice, Goodness.

Still reeling from the global pandemic, many continue to suffer, and the difficulty is compounded by war and widespread economic turmoil. Faced with the enormity of the challenge ahead, it might be tempting to deny it altogether by escaping into the “metaverse”.
However, Plato might caution us against going deeper into the cave. In our own times, Morpheus of The Matrix echoes the same warning. How might we instead dare to face the Truth, in order to alleviate the suffering of those around us? For ultimately, we are all an integral part of the same One Life.
Be it through mythology, art, or magnificent megalithic monuments, our heritage has always pointed towards the glorious role of the human being as a bridge between the terrestrial and the celestial. This has always been the true power of Living Philosophy; to bring to bring beauty, goodness and justice into the world.
On the occasion of International Mother Earth Day, which falls in April, let us look to the wisdom of trees, to all of nature, in order to learn how to harmoniously coexist, and to value our underlying unity that is enriched by our vibrant diversity. Let us dare to hope and build a future by humbly taking our rightful place as custodians of the planet. Let us Discover, Awaken, Transform.
