In An Age Of Confusion, Philosophy Matters.

Making Philosophy Practical & Accessible

Because depth should not be a luxury.

Intellectualism isn't dead. Philosophy isn’t just theory: it shapes how we think, how we live, and the future we create. But today, depth is disappearing beneath the surface, and wisdom is fading into distraction. My work bridges complex ideas with everyday life, making the world’s greatest thoughts personal, accessible, and practical.

RETHINK EVERYTHING. RECLAIM PHILOSOPHY.
Join thousands rediscovering philosophy with me in an age of confusion.

Melvin Poh:

"Knowledge And Wisdom Shall Be The Stability Of Our Times."

We live in a world driven by speed and surface thinking, one that often leaves philosophy behind. But in times of uncertainty, disconnection, and despair, we need it more than ever. Not as theory, but as a way to make sense of modern life. Philosophy helps us live with clarity, lead with depth, and connect with what truly matters. To return to philosophy is to return to ourselves.

I am a public intellectual and an award winning social entrepreneur, on a quest to explore life’s deepest questions and build meaningful solutions from them. For me, philosophy is not just theory; it must be lived, applied, and shared. I create spaces where thoughtful minds come together not only to reflect, but to act. My goal is to elevate how we think and bring wisdom back into a world that moves too fast.

OPEN ACCESS KNOWLEDGE FOR THE WORLD

My team and I have been on a mission of making the collective knowledge of Asia and the wider region, free to everyone. We launched Empirics, an open-access knowledge sharing platform. To date, we have published over 1 million open-access articles in the wide field of social sciences, without any form of commercialisation or restriction.

The objective of Empirics is to make knowledge free and accessible to the world. Simultaneously, we want to create a new paradigm in the world of publishing, one that is unrestricted by commercialisation; yet defined by valuable insights.
Empirics has facilitated the widespread knowledge exchange of individuals throughout Asia and the world. It has published over 1 million articles, provided a platform for over 100,000 authors and is actively accessed from 120 countries.
We imagine a world where knowledge is accessibly free, incredibly relevant and wildly engaging to people of all generations. Where we provide people an avenue for meaningful discourse and exchange, In the process bringing deep enrichment, fulfilment and growth to all.
Our organisation is committed to creating the largest repository of knowledge on our publishing platform; from which, we will work to deliver knowledge to the world in innovative, engaging and revolutionary ways through the medium of business and technology.

🧑🏻‍🏫🍎Sometimes what we call exhaustion isn't really about doing too much. It's about spending time on things that don't speak to who we are. Meetings we don't believe in, conversations we don't care for, people who don't connect, goals we never chose for ourselves. That kind of tiredness runs deeper. It's not physical. It's existential.

You're not tired because you're overwhelmed. You're tired because you're under-connected to meaning. When your actions drift too far from your values, fatigue shows up as a signal. The solution isn't always to do less. It's to do what matters more.

💭✍🏻We often imagine a self behind the mind, a stable observer pulling the strings. But look closer. The thinker you believe in, your sense of "I", is just another thought, appearing and disappearing like the rest.

This is the illusion: that we are the ones thinking, when in truth, we are being thought.

Once you see this, you stop trying to control every thought and start observing them with clarity. That's where freedom begins.
