About Dylan Raines

Creating a wiser, more compassionately connected world through philosophy, philanthropy and design.

An overview of my work:

Philosophical Writer

Philosophy means the love of wisdom. I believe wisdom is the foundation for leading a life of peace, understanding, kindness, empathy, generosity, health and genuine freedom; those are spiritual elements I call the qualities of wisdom. I create articles, images and videos which seek to inspire  contemplation and respectful dialogue so we may all may gain deeper wisdom for each of our lives through relationship and connection.

Here are a few of my projects within Philosophy: 

  • Love Wisdom, a podcast and blog providing commentary on quotes from some history’s most influential thinkers.
  • The Glorious Unknowing, a book about deeply contemplating the beliefs we have to see if they have been well-thought through.

Philanthropic Entrepreneur

Philanthropy means the love of humanity. I believe one of the best ways we can express love for humanity is by working to ensure that all people have access to life’s basic necessities. For that reason, I volunteer for humanitarian nonprofit organizations by providing free multimedia production and marketing solutions, so that those who need help most might get the help they need.

Here are my projects and publications within Philanthropy:

  • The Human Family, a nonprofit social network created to unite people for reducing needless suffering around the world.
  • Humanitarian Explorer, a news publications aiming to inform and inspire people to take action about humanitarian issues and events.

Information Designer

We are always communicating something by who we are, what we do and how we say what we say. I believe true success in life and work is all about the relationships we create and grow through the information we are absorbing or sharing. That’s why I am passionate about helping individuals, businesses and causes effectively build connections that can help them see their vision for serving others or selling great products become a reality.

Information Design work:

Vision Building, a professional network to share ideas for businesses or projects, and get multimedia services to see those ideas come to life.
