"If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite."

William Blake

"Kdyby brány vnímání byly průzračné, každá věc by se člověku jevila taková, jaká je, neskonalá."


(překvapilo mě, že jsem to tu nenašel)

Svet je jen iluzi, avsak iluzi, kterou musime brat vazne, protoze je realna v cele siri ve vsech aspektech reality, ktere jsme schopni vnimat. Nasim ukolem je probudit se. Musime proto najit zpusob, jak poznat celek reality i v te iluzorni casti, kterou jsme schopni vnimat svym omezenym vedomim vylucne orientovanym na vlastni osobu.
Nemuzeme zit bezmyslenkovite s predsvedcenim, ze tato iluze je celou realitou, zaroven vsak ani nelze premoudrele od teto iluze utikat. Neustale se proto musime snazit byt otevreni vuci moznostem, jak sve vedomi rozsirit. Nemuzeme zit v izolaci od sveta, ktery je nam dany. nybrz se musime ruznymi zpusoby ucit, jak ho menit a tvorit. Prilis moudrosti skodi stejne jako jeji nedostatek a my se nemuzeme uchylovat k zadnym pochybnym resenim. Musime se naucit pristupovat k realite bez carodejneho proutku a bez knihy kouzel. Clovek musi najit zpusob, jak zit v tomto svete, aniz by se s nim ztotoznoval. Zpusob ziti v case, aniz bychom se nechali casem ovladnout.
(Aldous Huxley)

There is something I don't know
That I am supposed to know.
I don't know what it is I don't know,
And yet am supposed to know,
And I feel I look stupid
If I seem both not to know
And not to know what it is I don't know.

Therefore, I pretend I know it.
This is nerve-wracking
Since I don't know what I must pretend
To know.

Therefore, I pretend to know everything.

I feel you know what I am supposed to know
But you can't tell me what it is
Because you don't know what I don't know
What it is.

You may know what I don't know, but not
That I don't know it.
And I can't tell you. So you will have
To tell me everything.

- R. D. Lang in Knots

"Question everything!"

"Why?"

[by current economy] we are persuaded to spend money we don't have on things we don't need to create impressions that won't last on people we don't care about.

Askeze nevede k osvícení. Osvícení vede k askezi.

Law enforcement is a huge industry that prospers by having as many forms of behavior as possible defined as illegal.

Prosazování zákona je obrovský průmysl, který vydělává peníze na tom, když je co nejvíce forem lidského chování nelegálních.

(platí nejvíc v USA, do jisté míry ale určitě v mnoha zemích)

You could not step twice into the same river ... but you can always drown in it, even if you know how to swim.
