Show me that you can divide the notes of a song;
But first, show me that you can discern
Between what can be divided
And can not.

– An anonymous musical composition
inspired by a classical Sanskrit poem.

” DNA, the molecule of contradictions, encodes an organism of contradictions.
We seek constancy in heredity – and find its opposite: variation.
Mutants are necessary to maintain the essence of our selves.”
” The Gene give us a definitive account of the fundamental unit of heredity –
and a vision both of humanity’s past and of its future.”

A magnificent, fascinating book.
A light into the master-code of instructions that make and define humans.

Many individuals are walking libraries. Their minds are replete of theories, opinions, and points of view that allow them to have personal answers about the meaning and purpose of their existence and life.
By thinking is very questionable to understand the One that is beyond the mind.
All that I know through my mind is limited and conditioned.
Is there knowledge that can be obtained without the mind?
European thinkers philosophized extensively about the way that the mind can obtain knowledge.
Eastern philosophers constantly advise to forget all I have learned, to become aware of the conditioning of my mind, and value my own experiences.
“Speak what is true, speak what is pleasant.”
What about if something is true and not pleasant?
What if it is pleasant but false?

I sweep my limelight
Until I am exhausted by its glare
To finally find something
Without an ego
To anoint with my pride
But I couldn’t love it anyway
I’ll lay on the catwalk and think
That my greatest fear
Is that I would rather be alone
than to think less of me

—————————————

Are you ready to shoot the messenger?
Put your hand in my Arjuna
We will take this step together
Do not worry
I am close
Right beside you
My body pressed into your back
I will wrap one arm around you
Press up under your breast
The other
I will slide along yours
Until we clasp the trigger together
Until my too soft squeeze
Lets you know
It is time for you to squeeze
Just soft enough

YO PALABRAS – Translation.

And you will be a girl
and I will be a stone.
And you will be life
and I will be water.
And you will be a mother
and i will be a son.
And you will be a leaf
and I will be roots.
And you will be fire
and i will be ashes.
And you will be light
and I will be shadows.
And you will be air
and I will be death.
And you will be a memory
and I will be words.

Hector Ahumada

To live, to be able to exist, the mind must connect itself with some kind of order. It must apprehend reality as an independent whole […] and must bind itself in a stable fashion to certain features of what we call reality. It can not bind itself to the ordinary world of everyday experience, except by taking it on “faith” that reality forms an objective whole, a whole which exist independently of the mind.
The mind lives, and we live, in a relationship of “faith” with reality itself. This relationship is likewise one of confidence in a detached reality, a reality which is different and other than the mind.
We live and exist in this relationship of confidence, which is always by its nature “uncertain” and “insecure” […] The relationship of confidence […] is originally, and truly, always a relationship with reality as a natural totality: as Nature.

Other thoughts:
The ultimate obstacle to protecting Nature is the very notion of Nature we relay on.

” I know very well that global warming is a threat to the entire humanity, but nonetheless I can not really believe it.”

The intelligent person depends on his/her own insight.
The intelligent person behaves according to the situation
and the other person behaves according to the ready-made answers.
The intelligent person does not function as a computer,
do not search for answers in the memory.
Simply open his/her consciousness to the situation and allow
the spontaneous response to arise.
She/He trust her/him own being.
He/She loves and respect him/her self.
The intelligent person respect others.

Hindubujew – La puerta esta abierta – 420.5

There are many individuals around that insist on the idea of listening to inner voices. These are just fragmentation of the mind, I do not know if they have real value.
Some persons fool themselves thinking that among these voices is the one of a master from a past life,or spirit or angels, etc. we humans have no limits to our imagination.
In Western cultures the theory is that we have one mind conditioned to black and white, right and wrong. In some of the Eastern cultures is proposed that we have many minds. At the moment I wake up I have one mind. At noon, another mind, and at evening I have a third mind.
Gurdjieff mentioned several times that we have many selves. Mahavira said that man is poly psychic.
These voices are all fragments of the mind, if you go on following all them you will develop neurosis.
It is suggested to learn “to watch” all these voices. Do not trust them. Only trust silence.
Remain in open consciousness, vulnerable. To be vulnerable is to be intelligent. To know that you do not know is to be intelligent.
The mind is all that I have experienced.

When people are born they are gentle and soft.
At death they are hard and stiff.
When plants are alive they are soft and delicate.
When they die, they wither and dry up.
Therefore the hard and still are followers of death.
The gentle and soft are followers of life.

Thus, if you are aggressive and stiff, you won’t win.
When a tree is hard enough, it is cut.
Therefore the hard and big are lesser.
The gentle and soft are greater.

Taoism emphasizes non-dualistic thinking and the interconnectedness of all life.

In this state, we acquire important knowledge and necessary awareness of the unseen forces that make up the reality surrounding us, and a new comprehension concerning the interrelationships among people, things, and the natural universe.
Our consciousness connects with the past, present, and the future. ” He who knows that which has existed and also know what lies in the future.”
In another state, some individuals are simply born with an innate mechanism for achieving cosmic awareness, they posses an inherent capacity for transcendence.

The stars compel and influence our actions, but we can still transcend their influence.

Each soul is a melody which must be picked up again, and the flute or the viola of everyone exist for that.
It seems to me, it is the true condition or the possibility not just of expressing oneself but of modulating oneself as one chooses.
Languages are imperfect in that although there are many, the supreme one is lacking: thinking is to write without accessories, or whispering, but since the immortal word is still tacit, the diversity of tongues on the earth keeps everyone from uttering the word which would be otherwise in one unique rendering, truth itself in its substance… Only, we must realize, poetry would not exist; philosophically, verse makes up for what language lack, completely superior as it is.

The pure work implies the disappearance of the poet as speaker, yielding his initiative to words, which are mobilized by the shock of their differences; they light up with reciprocal reflection like a virtual stream of firework over jewels, restoring perceptible breath to the former lyric impulse, or the enthusiastic personal directing of the sentence.
