ONENESS is a manifesto for neurodiversity.
A poetic, existential self-empowerment.
A call to radical perception. A manifesto for feeling. For untamed, authentic, raw life.

ONENESS points to the magic of connection, to synergy, to the whole that is more than the sum of its parts. Perception is not linear. Identity is not binary. Life is not black or white.

ONENESS transcends every category because it is about the whole—the connection between earth, body, soul, mind, world, cosmos, nature, art, love, breath, creation.

ONENESS is a manifesto for EVERYONE who wants to live more deeply and not be limited—not by diagnoses, not by systems, not by old thought patterns.

ONENESS is a call back to the essence:
to our primal perception, our sensuality, our wholeness.

ONENESS is more than a text—
it is a movement.

The Power of Feeling

Manifesto for Radical Perception,
Lived Sensitivity, and Wholeness of Being

Measurement, time, language, and mathematics
are cultural reflections of our existence—
expressions of a mind that elevates itself
as the measure of all things.

Origin and abyss,
genius and madness in one.

Yet perception and knowledge
elude all measurement—
they reveal themselves in a world
beyond measurable logic,
in the depths of feeling.

On Neurodiversity

Diversity as the Foundation of Life on Earth

The term ‘neurodiversity’ describes the natural variety of human brains and ways of thinking. No two brains are alike, and these differences are not flaws—they are the essence of human evolution. Recognizing this diversity is a matter of democracy: A society that accepts only one way of thinking as ‘correct’ suppresses individuality and divides people into “normal” and “deviant” groups.

Neurodiversity and the Limits of Science

Neuroscience encompasses various disciplines that study the nervous system and the workings of the brain—including neurology as a medical field, along with psychology and cognitive sciences that explore perception, consciousness, and thought.

Neurology is the science of the nervous system, a complex network that transmits information through electrical and chemical signals. The word “neuron” (νεῦρον) means nerve. “Logos” (λόγος) means word, speech, and reason; it refers to knowledge that is structured and passed on through words.

Yet neurology often remains on the outside, breaking the brain down into patterns and data to analyze and reconstruct its function. This research has led to the development of human-machine interfaces and drives the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI). Herein lies the problem: Whoever can measure thought can also control it.

Of Hippies, Nerds, and Industry

Since the 1950s, billions have flowed into research on the nervous system and AI. Hippies experimented with their own consciousness, using psychedelics to push the boundaries of their minds. Nerds built the circuits for the internet in their garages, while industry and the military laid vast fiber optic networks to connect the world. Today, satellite chains stretch across the sky, exchanging information in real time. What was once a dream of free communication has become the infrastructure of total surveillance.

AI research is a race between freedom and control. The quantum computer is the first machine that approaches the complexity of the human brain. But instead of using this knowledge to foster human diversity, it is exploited for economic and military interests. Modern technology allows human behavior to be analyzed, predicted, and controlled. Even newborns are linked to the internet in their strollers, their data turned into capital.

Language as a Tool of Power

Language shapes our thinking. It connects—and divides. Terms like “Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder” (ADHD) are problematic because they frame neurodivergent people as deficient. Who decides what constitutes a “disorder”? Why is an impulsive, creative person labeled “disordered” while monotonous, conformist behavior is deemed “normal”?

This categorization splits people into two groups: the “norm” and the “deviation.” The so-called “norm” is upheld as the ideal, while every deviation is either devalued or idealized. This is a form of systemic violence designed to maintain power structures and enforce control.

“Divide and Rule”—The Principle of Oppression

The division into “normal” and “different” follows an old principle: “Divide et impera”—divide and rule. The Romans used this strategy to control societies. Today, this principle manifests in more subtle forms: education systems that favor linear thinking, workplaces that reward conformity, and medical diagnoses that frame individuality as deviation.

Terms like ADHD, dyslexia, or high sensitivity reinforce this division. They define people by their “deficits” rather than their strengths. But who benefits from this? Companies that sell medication? Education systems that lack resources for individualized support? Or governments that prefer a predictable population?

Neurodiversity as the Foundation of Democracy

The concept of neurodiversity demands a radical shift in perspective: It’s not people who must adapt to conform to a rigid norm—society must learn to see diversity as an asset. No brain is less valuable than another. There is no “one right” way to think; there are as many ways of thinking as there are people.

Biodiversity sustains life on Earth. Neurodiversity stabilizes and enriches our social and cultural ecosystem, ensuring humanity’s enduring existence. Diversity is the foundation of all life.

Every Human Being Is Equal in Value—No Human Is the Same

Recognizing neurodiversity is an act of democratic equality. It means valuing people not for their ability to adapt to industrial and military systems but for their unique contributions to society. It means creating a world that welcomes all people—with all their unique colors of the spectrum.

Living with
Heightened Perception

The Dance of Life—Everything Has a Pulse

The world breathes, pulses, vibrates—I perceive it. The finest frequencies, the scent of approaching rain before the first drop falls, an insect playing dead so I won’t notice it. I see colours intensely, hear the faintest sounds, sense the subtlest movements and shifts. The world reveals itself—to those who perceive.

A violet-blue flower sways in the wind, unfolds its delicate petals, opens its pink, vaginal-shaped chalice, stretches its fragile arms, dusted with minuscule pollen grains, dancing its magical dance. Its intoxicating scent is an irresistible invitation; a beetle answers the call. It dives into the warmth of the opening, tumbles into the softness of the petals, sinks into the sweetness of the pollen, drinks the nectar, dizzy from touch and pollination. I watch life at play, in awe of how desire and necessity intertwine—And I delight in the celebration of life.

My perception of the animal, plant, and human worlds—of temperatures, humidity, gases and air pressure, of seasons, daylight, and the body tension of those around me—is acute. And I know that all knowledge passed down through science ultimately rests on the perceptions, observations, and experiences of people who see, hear, and feel with open senses, unrestricted by social conventions and norms. Those who fully open themselves to the world realise: everything has a pulse. Nothing is truly solid.

Alienation Through the Lack of Shared Perception

With the start of school came the disillusionment: Most of the children around me did not share my view of the world. It was as if I lived in a parallel reality that no one else could enter. While I registered every detail, the majority moved through a more streamlined, simplified version of existence. The idea of ‘normality’ was everywhere, and anyone who didn’t fit into that mold became an outsider—a freak, a nerd, a weirdo. For me, that meant bullying and violence. My difference wasn’t seen as an asset but as a threat. But perception isn’t something you can switch off. It remained my reality—and so my isolation began.

Family as a Source of Strength

Luckily, I had one safe place: my family. There, I was accepted and encouraged. That unconditional support became my anchor. It taught me that my way of experiencing the world was not a flaw, but a gift.

The Challenge of Sharing Perception

As my school years went on, the pressure to conform grew. My intense way of experiencing the world was hard to process—and I could feel that it was ‘too much’ for others. That was the rupture between perception and expression, between mind and soul—the moment of exile from paradise. Fear crept in—especially the fear of what I perceived but could neither share nor express.

I began to stutter, struggling to find the words to express what I saw, heard, and felt. So I ran, played, wept, climbed trees—absorbing everything. I felt free, beautiful, embraced by nature and my parents.

In the adult world, everything must make sense, everything must be explained. I wanted to belong—I didn’t want to be seen as an alien. So I became the model student, adapting to everything. But the “why” questions of school, its rigid logic of cause and effect, remained foreign to me. Society’s corset tightened around me. My senses clashed with the expectations of the world. Sport, play, drawing, music, cooking, eating, plants, and animals remained my bridge to life.

Social Norms and Their Consequences

These experiences shaped me. They revealed the power of the human-made construct called “normality”—an ideal deeply embedded in language, structures, and institutions, claiming itself as absolute. Those who diverge from it become outcasts, projections, or anomalies.

There is only one humanity—one species, one shared existence. The concept of ‘human races’ is a remnant of colonial power structures—scientifically outdated and socially toxic. Anyone who speaks of different human races reveals themselves as a racist.

But there are infinite ways to experience the world—as many truths as there are people. The diversity of perception is one of humanity’s greatest strengths. Diversity itself is our greatest strength—the very foundation of our existence.

The Gift and Challenge of High Sensitivity

My sensitivity brings me into resonance with the world in a deep, direct, and raw way. But it also has a dark side. Without shared understanding—without a language to validate these experiences—heightened perception can be isolating. It can make you feel alienated, unseen.

But those who navigate between worlds as bridge-builders, artists, and researchers find in it a profound strength. This sensitivity is a human superpower—unattainable for algorithms. Artificial intelligence can recognise patterns, imitate emotions, mirror words—but it remains without lived knowledge of organic structures, of love, of death, loss, and finitude—without feeling. Its precision makes it powerful, but without meaning. That is why it must be limited—to ensure its interaction serves humanity.

The Greatest Threat of Our Time

Yet the technocratic elite doesn’t use AI to honor this diversity. They use it to make people predictable. They catalog behaviors, optimize control mechanisms, and reduce human experience to a functional variable. This is the greatest threat of our time: The deepest human ability—feeling—is being devalued to serve the interests of a small, powerful elite.

The Absence of a Social Framework

Instead of valuing heightened perception as an asset, society forces us to hide it. Conformity is rewarded; individuality is punished. Those who “function” are granted social acceptance and economic security. Those who reject the norm are deemed useless. But these mechanisms don’t serve people—they serve a system that prioritizes economic utility over human dignity.

The Need for Belonging

Humans are social beings. A sense of belonging is essential to our well-being. But when difference leads to exclusion, a deep inner wound forms. The result is often depression—a mix of suppressed anger, frozen grief, self-doubt, and exhaustion. An invisible form of mental self-violence. This fragmentation extends to the biochemical signals of our cells. It is not personal failure but the consequence of a society that sees diversity as a threat—and has inscribed this self-punishment deep into its system.

The Dark Side of Power

This is how systems of oppression work—everywhere. They rely on both physical violence and social isolation. Those who are different are left to stand alone. And that isolation is one of the most subtle yet destructive forms of violence.

Language: The Prison of Thought

Without words for one’s own experience, one is at the mercy of the majority’s interpretative authority.Language is more than communication—it defines reality. Without the words to name one’s perception, one exists in a world that does not recognize them. It’s like having wings but no sky to fly in.

In a society that regulates perception, language is the sharpest instrument of power. Psychological distress is stigmatized rather than understood as a symptom of deeper structural issues. Those who don’t function are labeled as “ill”—when it is the system itself that is sick.

Perceiving and Connecting

This is why I draw and illustrate—to find a language beyond words. Art is a bridge between worlds, an invitation to perceive. It creates space for what cannot be confined to rigid definitions. It is one of the last refuges in a world that standardizes and quantifies everything—and at the same time, a mirror that makes the invisible visible, revealing the nature within and around us.

As a connector between worlds, I want to encourage humans to trust their perception—without letting the fear of society’s judgment limit them. Those who trust their perception discover a world beyond norms. But this takes courage: the courage to challenge ingrained ways of thinking, the courage to live one’s own truth.

Only when freedom of perception is our foundation can an inclusive and just society become reality. This means recognizing, accepting, and honoring diversity as the essence of life.

Healing and Reclaiming Your
Own Narrative

A Whole Life in a Day

My journey is one of intense experiences—isolation, joy, strength, and courage. Each day is a rebirth, a new beginning, a new life, a new universe. My lifelong journey of self-healing, the experience of death and life, is reflected in the songs, words, and sounds of the artists I cherish.

I have always wanted to be one of them—to express my perception of the world with clarity, radical honesty, and devotion. To share and celebrate my enchanted vision of nature’s infinite beauty and the deep experience of existence with others.

Share your perception too.
Celebrate your existence!

Perception is Your Space, Its Depth is Your Wealth

I see that people with high sensitivity and heightened perception—those who feel deeply, emotionally and energetically—often experience isolation.

But finding others who share your way of perceiving the world creates belonging. Through their perception, you become human. You realize: Your perception is your wealth—a gift and a challenge at the same time.

You enrich the world when you treat yourself with care, embrace who you are, trust your senses, and have the courage to stand by and share your perception.

Embrace Your Perception

Your sensitivity is your strength. To perceive deeply, clearly, and fearlessly is both a gift and a responsibility. Find ways to live it consciously—through art, music, science, healing, movement, touch, cooking, or gardening. Anywhere mindfulness, presence, and depth can unfold, your perception can take root and thrive.

Make Your World Visible

If your environment lacks the words or forms of expression to describe your world, create your own: Write, paint, dance, love, let go, embrace. Find metaphors, movements, and images that bring understanding—first to yourself, then to others—helping them see and love themselves. This is how you bridge your inner world with the outer one.

Let Go of the Fear of Judgment

Your fear of being misunderstood or judged can keep you from revealing your true self. It can make you doubt your perception—or make others think you are hiding something. This strips you of your power. Authenticity requires courage, but it fosters deep, genuine connections with the world.

Who Am I?

The question of life’s meaning is not a “why.” The real question is: Who am I? Who am I—here and now? And who do I want to be? The answer is connected to your body, your abilities, your experiences, your environment, your needs—to this moment.

Your Heart’s Deepest Desire

Stand by your longing and your greatness. Be brave—recognize yourself, accept yourself, show yourself. Shed shame and guilt—celebrate your unveiled self.

Your body is your temple, your solar plexus your center—the place where emotion, thought, and organism become one: the altar of your soul, the seat of your feelings—laughter, grief, anger, fear, despair, existence. Your skin is the boundary of your kingdom, your brain the king, your heart the queen, your senses the messengers who unveil the world to the emperor and the empress—the sovereigns of your being.By day, you walk in the human world. By night, you return to the universe.

What is your deepest heart’s desire—here and now? Feel it. Let it vibrate through every cell of your body. Acknowledge it—without doubt, without shame. What do you wish for—for yourself only?

Trust Your Perception

Every day is new. Feel yourself, perceive yourself. Only when you accept yourself can others truly see you. Comparison and judgment alienate you from yourself.

Face your fears. What you fear has power over you. But fears are signposts and guardians—not walls. Release what binds you. Do not allow anything to suppress your body, mind, or soul.

Do not betray your heart. Do not betray your body, your mind, your dreams, your values, your force and strength.

Trust your perception. Your body knows the way. Meet your dreams, fears, and desires with openness. Let them guide you—without losing yourself.

Comparison is Deadly

Comparison is betrayal of yourself. It robs you of what makes you unique. It divides, weakens, and alienates you from your own essence. We are taught to seek our worth in the mirror of others—but true force lies beyond…
