Finite and Infinite Lovers: Changing the Game of Love

grunge_road_sign__infinite_love_limit_sjpg3041

“True love is the complete victory of the particular over the general, and the unconditional over the conditional.” – Naseem Nicholas Taleb

We are all scientists, trying to make sense of the love inside us. Most things exist along a rollercoaster ride of degrees. So it is also with love. Our definitions of love are not as black and white as we’d like them to be, they’re ambiguously gray and often imprecise. The border around our idea of love is mostly an illusion, permeable and ever-changing; more like a horizon than a boundary. There are, after all, over seven billion of us on this planet, and we each have our own unique psycho-physiological perception of what love means.

Arizona Bill Would Legalize Marijuana, Nullify Federal Prohibition

A bill filed last week in Arizona would authorize marijuana to be taxed and regulated similar to alcohol, legalizing the plant, and effectively nullifying the unconstitutional federal prohibition on the same.

House Bill 2007 (HB2007) was prefiled by State Rep. Mark Cardenas (D-Phoenix). If passed, people aged 21 and older may “possess, consume, use, display, purchase or transport marijuana accessories or one ounce or less of marijuana.” They would also be allowed to “possess, grow, process or transport not more than five marijuana plants and the marijuana produced by the plants on the premises where the plants were grown, transfer one ounce or less of marijuana and not more than five immature marijuana plants to a person who is at least twenty-one years of age without remuneration,” and “assist another person who is at least twenty-one years of age in any of the acts described” previously in this portion of the bill.

Anatomy of the Deep State

There is the visible government situated around the Mall in Washington, and then there is another, more shadowy, more indefinable government that is not explained in Civics 101 or observable to tourists at the White House or the Capitol. The former is traditional Washington partisan politics: the tip of the iceberg that a public watching C-SPAN sees daily and which is theoretically controllable via elections. The subsurface part of the iceberg I shall call the Deep State, which operates according to its own compass heading regardless of who is formally in power.

During the last five years, the news media has been flooded with pundits decrying the broken politics of Washington. The conventional wisdom has it that partisan gridlock and dysfunction have become the new normal. That is certainly the case, and I have been among the harshest critics of this development. But it is also imperative to acknowledge the limits of this critique as it applies to the American governmental system. On one level, the critique is self-evident: In the domain that the public can see, Congress is hopelessly deadlocked in the worst manner since the 1850s, the violently rancorous decade preceding the Civil War.

Quadrantid meteor shower peaks on January 3rd and 4th

Quadrantids are considered to be one of the best annual meteor showers, known for their bright fireball meteors - larger explosions of light and color that can persist longer than an average meteor streak.

This year, they peak on the night of January 3rd and the morning of January 4th, around 04:00 UTC. Traveling at velocity of 41 km/s (25.5 mps), Quadrantids radiate from the constellation Bootes, originally Quadrans Muralis which is now a defunct constellation. We can usually expect approximately 80 meteors per hour, however, the nearly full moon will block out most of the show this year. 

Quadrantids origin is an extinct asteroid or a possible "rock comet" 2003 EH1, discovered on March 6, 2003 by the Lowell Observatory Near-Earth Object Search (LONEOS). Their peak is much shorter than an average meteor shower due to its thin stream of particles and the fact that Earth crosses the stream at a perpendicular angle.

Reincarnation: The Eastern View

The Buddhist Wheel of Life

Waking Times

Reincarnation has become an increasingly popular doctrine in the West. For example, polls taken in the US over the past couple of decades have shown that between 20 and 28 percent of the population believe in it. The figures for western Europe are similar.

What explains the appeal of an idea that until recently was the province of a few occultists and eccentrics? Some of it can be explained by the appeal of Asian religions, such as Hinduism and Buddhism, to which reincarnation has always been integral. But this does not explain much: you could turn the argument around and say that Hinduism and Buddhism are so appealing because they teach reincarnation.

Mysteries That Rewrite Human History

History is written by the victors.” – Winston Churchill

History is a wonderful and sometimes crucial aspect of reality that can give us key insight into where we have been -and where we are going.

Throughout the ages, time and time again; humans have been lied to.

Whether it be aristocracy, royalty, oppressive regimes or a slew of other tyrants humans have been fed time and time again fabricated lies to suit the agenda of these parties.

But is that period truly over?

History Rewritten

There are many holes in the fabric of mainstream history such as a map found in 1513 by Piri Reis, a famous admiral of the Turkish fleet in the sixteenth century.

Nothing Will Ever Make You Happy

feature_image_template

It’s true.

Believe the hype.

Nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing in this life will make you happy.

Not your friends, not your family, not your dog, not money, not that new job, not that perfect relationship, not anything.

And the moment you understand this, is the moment you’ll find the happiness you are so desperately looking for.

More than a Human Be-ing

MORE THAN A HUMAN BE-ING   Once you remember who you are, material possessions and kudos from others loses its importance. Once you have fully gained peace and inner balance, you will begin to enjoy every moment of your life. You will feel equally balanced whether someone is yelling in your face or giving you a heart-felt hug. You will know who you are and can appreciate the opportunity of each experience on Earth.

Whenever you have an experience that leaves you feeling anything less than peaceful, take time to look at the event and uncover the reason why you are off balance. Your emotions are an excellent barometer to awaken you consciously to areas in your life that need to be addressed.

You are on a Path of ascension. If you resist words such as ascension, interject the words “be a kinder person” and say the same thing. You are on a Path to become a kinder person.

Open yourself to the possibility of the truth others speak, not shutting them out because they are of a different religion or speak words that are different from what your group uses. Find the commonalities between you and have the courage to openly question each other’s beliefs. In so doing, you may find you will have a deeper understanding of each other and some of your own belief codes.   Selamet! Akbal 6
