Dear Reader:
I highly recommend a publication on integral and spiritual matters coming out of Russia. It is the Eros & Kosmos online magazine which is published in English and Russian versions. The latter version appears several times a week, the English version is published when worthwhile new material is available. Most authors are invited to contribute on the strength of their experience and novel perspectives, but other submissions are encouraged.
I loved the magazine, Eros & Kosmos, for its outstanding scholarly depths, writing style, and for addressing human quest for meaning and growth.
A team of talented editors works on the magazine. The chief editor, Eugene Pustoshkin, is a prolific, deeply engaged, and gifted writer both in Russian and English. So far the publications are free. Take a look (http://eroskosmos.org/english) and be moved, delighted and expanded yourself.
