blurb: A Vision of Humanities Potential
blog:
A Vision of Humanities Potential
small worlds preclude huge leaps forward for humanity
cognition not hodgepodge or free for all
objective and subjective unified
heart connections and objective realities
right and left brain
like music.. infinite freedom with dynamic structure
rational spirituality CRS
meaningless sound and deep meaning
nearly silent listening to … inner knowing fills in the gaps
cosmic ’satellite’ dish
precision all the way to depth of existence
the power of granite
secrets and the veda
obstacles : positive stirs negative reactions
i chose this life…
we wear such obstacles as feathers in our caps
tantra means engineering.. right vs left handed
jettisoning left handed tantra

blurb: Infinite Correlation and the Eternal Atma
intro:
I have done podcasts on Brahma Sutras, Upanishads, Shiva Sutras, and structure of Veda and Vedic Literature. I intend to visit specific aspects of Vedic Literature in the future.
—————
everything is the center of the universe
your atma is eternal
Riemann sphere
the surface dances around the atma. Yet in kali yuga, most identify with the surface as ‘I’.
projection and Descarte
I think therefore I am… vs. atma is… consciousness is
the eternal Atma

blog:
Cognition vs Perspective
How to Know Everything
Limits Upon Awareness
“The real war will never get in the books.”
WALT WHITMAN
My experience of teaching: slips through fingers and they don’t realize it.
Pandits more easily accept where people are at than I can
Positive elicits negative: I could not believe it unless I experienced it.
Darwin and the Veda
cognition
arrogant alignment with current mentality
not so much a group out there choosing to be evil deceivers
rather they believe in their perspective and push it. Beyond that then is they only fund research they believe is correct and those who do not conform do not get grants.
how to build and enlightened city
was Anker Wat an enlightened city
why I am told not to reveal much about an enlightened city. And already, others are taking on the term.
supernatural powers
humility is flip side of wisdom
only thing worse than stupid is stupid that thinks its smart
compromising truth so as not to offend
Mystery History, Barabar. . they are moving in the right direction but lots more to go of course.

blurb:
How to Work with the Laws of Nature
blog:
Rishi, Devata, Chhandas
what it really means to negotiate with the gods
economics prof. predicting economy is like predicting where leaves will land when falling from tree
the subtle/depth determines the gross/surface… negotiate with the god
but in the language of god, not of man
man on gods side, or god on man’s side
yagyas and prayer
A bit on anger:
who’s angry at whom and why?
the mechanics of anger
Anger and the Gods.
you will always have a ‘rational’ justification for your anger and be sure you are ‘right’
anger and the chit
“ “ paradigm identity
“ “ the laws of nature [i.e. the gods]
second response… what it is and is not

my unedited personal notes:
opening:
mono-dimensionalizing people
My comment on essentially a history of civilizations book: “The End of Everything”
… And the even bigger picture.
———
someone asked me, “Are you worried?”
is God on your side?
saw on church sign: “we are redeemed by God’s grace”
aligning on different levels of the self
astral echoes vs integration: echoes of truth hold truth at bay
to question is to evolve
as said, doctrines are called ‘secret’ for a reason
shastras are not a cookbook
once enlightened, everything you thought you knew changes
humility is flip side of wisdom
racism is cultural integrity gone insane

my unedited personal notes:
How the Universe Works
integration of heart and mind… which is kite; which is tail?
traversing and integrating the full spectrum of existence
purifying out impurities; enlivening inner coherence
Essential Key: understanding the bigger picture… deeper knowledge than what is mainstream.
Knowledge and Experience

my unedited personal notes:
Essential Key: understanding the bigger picture… deeper knowledge than what is mainstream
Opening Thoughts:
This Moment in Time
The dissolution of empires… cultural integrity is the first thing that goes
Somersaulting Mountaintop to Mountaintop
——
longing for meaning…lost their way… society without direction
laws of nature change over time… clean the fish bowl and live as long as you like.
Kayakalpa
when history goes back so far that the laws of nature have changed, we no longer call it history. Instead, we call it mythology
time delay, clearing ‘gunk’
why the Veda might be called “The Secret Doctrine”
health in the golden age: ‘decorations’ around front door
how to allow the depth to refine the surface. deeper than emotional and mental levels

Reaching for the Ungraspable
Brahmanas Somersaulting Mountaintop to Mountaintop
Where all Paradox finds it Resolution

The dissolution of empires

my unedited personal notes:
Of war and peace, the truth just twists
Its curfew gull just glides
Upon four-legged forest clouds
The cowboy angel rides
With his candle lit into the sun
Though its glow is waxed in black
All except when ’neath the trees of Eden
B Dylan
One slice through a piece of picture jasper
Cosmic Enigmas of James Webb: They have no idea.
Vedic Technology: do yagyas work? time delay, clearing ‘gunk’
“Democracy comes about when there is nobody around who is fit to lead”
democracy: grassroots wisdom or ‘mob rule”. Sherman called democracy ‘mob rule’. But beats tyranny.
spiritual free-for-alls
Today’s upheavals in a nutshell: the lost looking for righteous cause in a depraved society
the culturally stupid
why the Veda might be called “The Secret Doctrine”
racism is cultural integrity gone insane
the ‘I get it syndrome’ vs the physiology of awareness
how to allow the depth to refine the surface. deeper than emotional and mental levels
Essential Key: understanding the bigger picture… deeper knowledge than what is mainstream
longing for meaning…lost their way… society without direction
physiology of humans: one thought at a time. transcendental physiology: knowing more than one thing, all things. simultaneously
