If there were no eternal consciousness in a man, if at the bottom of everything there were only a wild ferment, a power that twisting in dark passions produced everything great or inconsequential; if an unfathomable, insatiable emptiness lay hid beneath everything, what would life be but despair?
Søren Kierkegaard, Fear and Trembling

My videos are meant for everyone. No prior background and knowledge are required to take full advantage of these materials. All you need is the courage, passion and patience to seek possible answers to some of the most challenging, crucial and profound questions of our existence.
Monotheism. A Brief Outline
In this series Leo Stan introduces viewers to the three Abrahamic traditions of the world: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The themes he will discuss are: divine creation; the relationship between God and humanity; evil and salvation; moral duties; and social-political implications.
The Book of Job
The Book of Job is one of the most fascinating texts in the Hebrew canon and world literature. It’s a story about loss, pain, faith, betrayal, rebellion (against God…) and repentance. Fundamentally, in my eyes it’s a very mysterious book. As a result, my goal is twofold: (1) to stress the book’s core enigma; and (2) to see whether Job’s drama can help us, today, come to terms with unexplainable suffering and death.
Intro to Christianity
Whether you’re a believer or not, it’s hardly disputable that Jesus Christ is one of the key figures in the history of humankind. The religion he gave birth to, moreover, is inseparable from Western civilization. In these videos Leo Stan will be asking why this is the case. More exactly, he’ll develop in some detail the theological, moral, and political implications of Jesus’ proclamations. A brief outline of Jesus’ Judaic environment will also be necessary for a more complete understanding of his religious message.
Buddhism. The Basics
In this series Leo Stan seeks to introduce viewers to the basic philosophical, moral, and religious tenets of Buddhist spirituality. Everything will revolve around the Four Noble Truths and their fascinating relevance for all of us today.
STAY TUNED!
