- My E-Prime Day - describe your day, only using English Prime -- It seemed to be a bright beautiful to my eyes as I felt the warm feeling sun on my body, which was covered by clothes and maybe interfering with the actual warmth of the sun rays. I walked to the corner relatively slowly for my normal pace and stopped to look at an appearingly unhappy person who looked like an old man to me. Everything seemed ok to my observations in the immediate vicinity so I continued on with my travels toward where the grass seemed greener to my eyes.
- Can I synthesize East and West? -- Yes. At this point in time we are at a cross roads in the knowledge of humanity. We are seeing and experiencing the integration of eastern and western philosophies, technologies and societies. East and West are but one. As all things have come from one source there is an inseparability that is clear and outstanding when one can halt the prejudice of the mind and allow the ever flowing oneness to flow. Once one is able to stop the acquired prejudices of the mind the imaginary walls, which are held by the mind and create the illusion of separateness, vanish and the congruency and harmony manifests to that individual as an ever present, and all inclusive, dance. There is a balance to the universe which has no option but to be maintained. This equilibrium, the Tao, is in perfect balance and at the same time absolutely polarized. We see this in the approach to the world in our East vs. West theory. The "West" is very external, material driven, and mental. The "East" is very internal, spirit oriented, and subtle. These are merely poles of the same event. Just as a magnetic field has a positive and a negative. It is all just a matter of perspective.
- Newton’s Three Laws and me --- I have pondered these laws for years now and have always been intrigued by the forces of nature. Nowadays I am especially interested in the 3rd law-- for every action there is a reaction equal and opposite. This is known as the Law of Karma. every act we do has an effect in the universe and affects ourselves as well, for we will have to live out the reaction, equal and opposite sooner or later. Whether or not it happens within our memory's time or not. Many times people think of Karma as being good or bad yet it is a very neutral force that does not take sides or has any prejudice. Just as a scale will weigh feathers and sand the same, the force of karma can only bring balance. It is an order of the universe which has been, is, and will be. Like gravity's pull, its reach is infinite. It all comes back one way or another, sooner or later, in absolute balance. Please, be kind :)
- Our “Energy Efficient” Culture -- Our culture is so far from being energy efficient. We have auto corporations that fight efficiency regulations so that the cars burn more fuel so that the oil companies can make more profit. Like they need more profit. There is too much profit in energy and thus the idea from a sales point of view is to have the consumer buy and use as much as possible and profit profit profit. Much of the energy efficient things we see these days aren't even that great. They are just another marketing scam. Was it GE or Maytag that recently got fined because their 'energy star' refrigerators were not meeting the standards required to be 'energy star'. Hopefully we will all jump on the solar train and apply our technology with an elevated mind that we may utilize the vast energy sources around and not control it will force and corruption.
- Descartes has a lot to answer for!--- Reduce. Reduce. Reduce. Des Cartes did his job in a line of scientists searching to understand the universe we live in. As we need chaos to expand consciouness and then the need exists to give that expansion a framework or foundation on which to exist on. This is what reductionism has done in my eyes. It has been given us an enhanced ability to go outwards. As far out as we may go we must also go equally far inwards. Newtons 3rd law must be maintained. The scales must be in balance. We now have been able to venture into the quantum field through the world of substance and matter. That is quite a feat!!
