“I implore the Virgin Mary, and worship Constantinople, to grant me the keys, to enter the garden. To pick red apples, to drink dewy water, to rest and sleep underneath an apple tree. Let the blossoms fall upon me, the apples in my lap, and the golden roses around my hair.”
Live recording at the First Evangelical Church of Athens, during Sacred Music Festival of the Greek National Opera.

Plenitude draws inspiration from the Rubaiyat poems of the medieval Persian mathematician and philosopher Omar Khayyám (1048–1131). The Arabic verses reflect how true prosperity is not found in material wealth and grandeur, but in the simplicity of existence, in silence, and in communion with the world around us.
The work was recorded live at the First Evangelical Church of Athens, during Sacred Music Festival of the Greek National Opera. We performed the piece in our concert ‘Nature, Worship, and the Divine’, (14.04.2025)

New Blog
In the Middle Ages, Latin and Arabic translations of ancient mystical texts known as the Corpus Hermeticum began to appear. These writings were attributed to Hermes Trismegistus (“Thrice Great Hermes”), a syncretisation of the Greek god Hermes and the Egyptian god Thoth. Composed in Hellenistic Egypt between the 2nd and 3rd centuries CE, the writings encompassed a wide range of esoteric knowledge, from philosophy and cosmology to alchemy, astronomy, medicine, and theology.
This blog explores mystical dimensions of Hermetic philosophy, especially as they relate to myēsis (initiation), palingenesis (spiritual rebirth), and the experience of ecstasy. An introduction to how the Hermetic tradition conceives of human transformation as a total ontological shift, through which the soul becomes divine.
