O Brahmā, whatever appears to be of any value, if it is without relation to Me, has no reality. Know it as My illusory energy, that reflection which appears to be in darkness.

~Srimad Bhagavatam

Those who are on this path are resolute in purpose, and their aim is one. O beloved child of the Kurus, the intelligence of those who are irresolute is many-branched.

~Bhagavad Gita As It Is

Just as a person traveling on the road rests one foot on the ground and then lifts the other, the conditioned soul takes shelter of another body and then gives up the one he had before.

~Srimad Bhagavatam

The housing demonstration on October 24, 2026, in Lisbon brought thousands of people together to protest the housing crisis and demand the right to dignified housing. In the image, the demonstrator in the center, Eugénio Ruivo, holds a historical poster depicting the political prisoners released from the Caxias Fortress on April 26, 1974, one day after the Carnation Revolution. Eugénio, himself a political prisoner who was only 21 years old at the time, appears in this iconic picture by photojournalist Carlos Alberto. He is the third person from the left, wearing a white turtleneck sweater. Like him, these men were mostly anti-fascist opponents of the Estado Novo regime, including members of the Portuguese Communist Party (PCP) and other left-wing activists who had been jailed by the political police (PIDE/DGS) for their resistance and struggle for freedom.
