I am working on this project to develop my learning and spiritual life. Hopefully, it also helps you as students to navigate your own paths. As such, your trust matters to me. So, I want to be clear about anything I give to and earn from you. Here is the summary:
- My writings and lessons are not meant to replace professional advice. Just because I am sincere, it does not mean I am right. Please refer to experts or scholars on everything you have found on this website.
- Like other websites, this site may collect your information (for example, your email address for the newsletter service). I use them for things like speeding up the site on specific devices, or offering something that only my subscribers find valuable.
- My primary aim is not money. I run this project because it is meaningful to me. However, over the years, I realise projects like this need substantial time, energy and money. Without support, the quality of this project (and my health) will deteriorate; it will be alive, but barely — like a zombie.
So, to keep this project healthy, and to level up its quality, it needs to generate income. And I want to do it in ways that keep your experience positive and inspiring. The income can be used, for example, to hire some of you to work on elements of this website.
I will keep you updated. I have some ideas I want to try.
In the mean time, as disclosure goes, please assume that your participation towards all links, recommendations and contents on this site will bring me some kind of financial or other worldly benefits, either directly or indirectly.
That’s it. Please continue reading for more details. And please pray for me and those who are involved in this project.
