"The POI says that the smarter you are, the less you keep your mind for yourself. It says that the more intelligent you are, the greater the probability that an employer owns too much of your brainpower."

Mudrci dávného Mexika si dali práci při zkoumání různých typů energie a cítili povinost popsat svým bližním to, co objevili. Ve svém úsilí po nalezení nejvhodnějších termínů prohlásili, že vše je rozděleno na světlo a tmu., které se podobají dnu a noci. Od toho pak odvodili všechny další popisy duality....

Skrze své zření zjistili, že energetický svět je složen z rozsáhlých ploch temnoty, která je tu a tam protkána malými body světla. Uzřeli, že temné oblasti odpovídají ženské části energie, zatímco světlé body jsou mužským prvkem. Od toho zjištění už chyběl jen krůček k tvrzení, že vesmír je takřka celý ženský a že zářivá energie, to "mužské" - je velmi vzácná.

Pro lepší definici spojili temnotu s levou stranou, s nagualem, s tím neznámým a tím ženským; zatímco světlo spojili s pravou stranou, s tonalem, s tím známým a mužským.


Ze svých dalších pozorování zjistili, že k aktu galaktického stvoření dojde v okamžiku, kdy se kosmická temnota zhroutí sama do sebe a vyjde z ní exploze světla, jiskra, která se rozpíná a tím vzniká řád času a prostoru. Zákonem tohoto řádu je, že věci vždy mají svůj konec, z čehož plyne, že tím jediným a nehynoucím principem vesmíru je temná energie - ženská, tvořivá a věčná.

Reality is neither past nor eventual; it is now. Now is the original and only state of things. Nothing ever has happened or can happen outside of now. Although self-evident, the significance of this is extremely difficult to concede. We are involuntarily, unconsciously terrified of it for it means giving up the past and seems to predicate losing all of the established foundations from which we gain our psychological sense of security. Through the feeling of having been, we get the feeling of being someone, something. It is a substitute for being now. It is comforting, reassuring almost to the point of necessity for most of us; but it is not the truth. To be someone or something at any time requires living in the past.
To be able to perceive the beginning of the universe and oneself as now is the beginning of immortality in the individual. To cling to any other beginning in the face of the real is for the individual to continue to calculate his own inevitable and equally unreal death.
[...]
Now is exactly the same instant that the intellect formed in the mind and the universe began. In truth nothing has changed, nothing ever will. The thing that does change and therefore is evolutionary, or at any moment not yet itself, is intelligence. Intelligence invented interval, the past and the Big Bang theory because it is not yet up to living in the now.

Kdyz jsem byl mladej,
tak jsem byl blbej.

Moc jsem si myslel.
Nastesti jsem to nerikal nahlas.

Kdybych to vykrikoval,
ta ozvena by me desila dodnes.

The realisation of Immortality, I-am, Life, Non-existence, and the other extreme points of Consciousness, is not Self-Realisation. These "high" points of Consciousness are differentiated forms of the Self, or reality -- eternally present ideas, archetypal mind structures. They are neither concepts, precepts or percepts. They are "there", in the individual's Consciousness for him to realise as quickly as possible. The Self, although none of these high points, contains them all.
Self-Realisation is a State. A State -- like an ideal platonic national state -- is a self-sufficient beingness. No experience of a state is possible by those totally in that state because no separatedness exists for them to experience. Non-separatedness is non-experience.

If you're open to growth, you tend to grow

Why do some people reach their creative potential in business while other equally talented peers don’t?

After three decades of painstaking research, the Stanford psychologist Carol Dweck believes that the answer to the puzzle lies in how people think about intelligence and talent. Those who believe they were born with all the smarts and gifts they’re ever going to have approach life with what she calls a “fixed mind-set.” Those who believe that their own abilities can expand over time, however, live with a “growth mind-set.”

Guess which ones prove to be most innovative over time.

“Society is obsessed with the idea of talent and genius and people who are ‘naturals’ with innate ability,” says Ms. Dweck, who is known for research that crosses the boundaries of personal, social and developmental psychology.

“People who believe in the power of talent tend not to fulfill their potential because they’re so concerned with looking smart and not making mistakes. But people who believe that talent can be developed are the ones who really push, stretch, confront their own mistakes and learn from them.”

Uniquely, octopuses have more than half their nerves in their arms and have been shown to partially think with their arms,” says Claire Little, of the Weymouth Sea Life Centre. “Many animals have been shown to favour a certain arm so we will see if octopuses can be added to that list.”

iracionalita je někdy velmi racionální „vyšší“ hrou :o) … na základě racionálního předpokladu, že druhá strana jedná iracionálně, přestávám být racionální, abych ehm nebyl nezdvořilý, že?
