Odyssey Magazine’s 250th Celebratory Edition Winter 2025

The most compelling factor that emerged was that consciousness is not ‘New Age’ neither is it fad nor fashion, it is a gentle generational reminder from the ancients, a knowingness within, a reconnection to the timeless and unboundedness of the divine essence of who we are.
