PETER'S BOX
What is Peter's Box?
Any day, Peter’s Box is the place to be—a place to relax while learning, thinking, and exploring!
Hello, and welcome to Peter’s Box!
Peter’s Box is a big box containing three boxes. The contents of Peter’s Box depict the splendour of the human mind and the human experience. Each box provides the most basic explanation for its contents. The three boxes are Learning, Nature, and Philosophy.
In the learning box, we look at simple and practical methods for acquiring seemingly complex skills. You will learn the best strategies to improve your mental prowess. The learning box is also known as Do-It-Yourself.
We philosophize without limits in the philosophy box. Complex philosophical issues and problems are simplified to their most basic forms. Every philosophical idea is examined, challenged, and discussed. The philosophy compartment is also known as Thoughts Without Limits.
The nature compartment is the final compartment. We go as far as we can in this universe. Complicated scientific theories are simplified. The universe’s beauty is expressed in simple words. The nature compartment is also known as Universe at My Feet.

Peter's Box is similar to the famous Pandora's Box
If you are familiar with Pandora’s Box then you have no trouble understanding Peter’s Box.
Pandora’s Box as legend has it, tells of the beautiful box (in ancient greece it was called a jar) that Zeus gave Pandora as a wedding gift which was never to be opened. Pandorra out of curiosity couldn’t resist the urge to lift the lid of the jar and out of it came all the awful calamities that befell mankind. Strife, sickness, toil and a ton of other evils escaped from the jar to afflict men and women forever more. Pandorra realizing her mistake quickly shut the lid but it was too late. However there was one spirit that didn’t escape out of the jar. It was a timid spirit named Elpis, usually translated as “hope.”
Peter’s Box was also opened out of curiosity but fortunately, unlike Pandora’s box, beautiful discoveries and events came out. The leashed spirit hope in Pandora’s Box has now been unleashed in Peter’s Box.
Peter’s Box is about maximizing potential and happiness whenever, wherever, and in whatever, no matter its complexity.
