What is synthesense? The integration, interweaving, synthesis of all supposed unique senses. American culture is dominated by visual imagery promulgated by habitual auditory belief and expectation. Synthesense includes sight, hearing, tactile impressions, smell, and taste. In addition we have created technological extensions of each of our senses. An X-Ray machine gives our eyes a new capabilities of sense including the ability to see through some matter.
Strange that simultaneously Horror intermingles with Beauty. How are we to see through the tremendous suffering all around the country and the world. That is the challenge I propose to myself, as well as to you the seer.
Every man is in his own person the whole human race without a detail lacking....I knew I should not find in any philosophy a single thought which had not passed through my own head, nor a single thought which had not passed through the heads of millions and millions of men before I was born.
Mark Twain
True knowledge exists in knowing that you know nothing.
Socrates (469 BC - 399 BC)
As for me, all I know is that I know nothing.
Socrates
And in knowing that you know nothing, that makes you the smartest of all.
Socrates
Knowledge about life is one thing; effective occupation of a place in life, with its dynamic currents passing through your being, is another.
William James
Any ad consciously attended to is comical. Ads are not meant for conscious consumption. They are intended as subliminal pills for the subconscious in order to exercise a hypnotic spell, especially on sociologists.
Marshall McLuhan
The first and perhaps the only, outcome of man''s will-to-understanding is faith
Oswald Spengler
Faith is much better than belief. Belief is when someone else does the thinking.
R. Buckminster Fuller
There is but one cause of human failure. And that is man''s lack of faith in his true Self.
William James
In properly organized groups no faith is required; what is required is simply a little trust and even that only for a little while, for the sooner a man begins to verify all he hears the better it is for him.
Gurdjieff
It occurs to me, or rather I begin to feel an awareness that to accomplish some goals it is best to forget why. I mean that in some way there are certain goals which are easier to accomplish if one forgets that that is what one is doing. Now this seems to me paradoxical. How can one have a goal, that is to head in a specific direction, with purpose, and yet simultaneously forget why or how one began to head in that direction? Forget is a nebulous word, or at least at the edges of common meaning of the word, one can apply that word less concretely.
Mystics for ages have been messengers for the idea that All is One. There is no separation. Every "separate" thing is actually just a certain concentration which blends with the universe as it radiates spirally outwards toward infinity.
Let us see if we can together prove with logic, reason, science, rationality the hypotheses of Oneness. Are there experiments which can be performed to collect data which will prove or disprove?
Image sickness is a state of being where one's actions have their impetus from habitual unconscious attention to images. Mental images of the environment are treated as real when in fact they are illusions.
Images are static and reality is ever changing.
Any image is merely a fragment of the whole and should never be believed to be the whole.
Any movement away from what is real is a dissipation of energy. Attention to images therefore dissipates ones energy. Conscious visualization as a movement of creation relies on efficient use of ones energy.
