Our publication is a platform for critical dialogues and analytical explorations on knowledge, paradoxes, language, religion, spirituality, and truth. Existential Kitchen stands at the forefront of philosophical inquiry, encouraging a deep engagement with ideas that challenge and inspire.

Values and Humanity

What defines us as human beings?

Existential Kitchen seeks to unravel the complex arras of human values and essence, fostering a discourse that transcends conventional definitions and embraces the multifaceted nature of humanity.

Ancient Issues in a Modern Key

Existential Kitchen extends its philosophical inquiry to the realms of literature and cinema, interpreting books and films through a philosophical lens. Our discussions aim to uncover deeper meanings and insights, enriching the cultural discourse.

Beyond Philosophical Influencers

In an era dominated by digital market logic, Existential Kitchen advocates for a philosophical discourse that is both critical and original. We challenge the commodification of philosophy, promoting a discourse that values authenticity and critical thinking over popularity and market trends.

Integrating Eastern Wisdom

Existential Kitchen is dedicated to integrating the richness of Eastern philosophy, yoga, meditation, and martial arts into the framework of modern life. We recognize these practices not as relics of the past but as living sources of wisdom that offer balance, harmony, and mindfulness, providing enlightening perspectives alongside Western traditions.

Overcoming Nihilism

Faced with the challenge of contemporary nihilism, Existential Kitchen seeks a renewed sense of meaning in the information and AI era. We invite our readers to explore new horizons of understanding, fostering hope and purpose in a world brimming with data but thirsting for significance.

Join us at Existential Kitchen as we embark on this ambitious journey!

Together, we can forge a vanguard of thinkers, seekers, and philosophers who are ready to venture beyond traditional boundaries and embrace the complexity of our times. Welcome to the philosophical renaissance of the digital age.
