Comment on: Photo 'To LIVE life ...': destiny is to act as catalyst in the process of establishing a mechanism to allow ALL 7.0 billion on Earth to avail themselves of the opportunity to make the switch - such that when the switch has been affected by the majority of SOULs on Earth - an organic change in the structure of present-day society, a change such as the world has not yet experienced - would be produced. From being a child, I have long held the viewpoint - that the ‘force' inside of me was the same force that existed in everyone else - regardless of race, language or religion - & that everybodies position was NOT their own - but that which they had been encouraged to partake in - through the ‘efforts' of parents, piers, teachers, leaders etc. I could not then understand or initially come to terms with - why so much of the big picture - which I have always found so easy to comprehend - was seemingly inaccessible to ALL of those that I came in contact with. Equally - & in stark contrast to this understanding - at 60 years of age I have yet to master the art of tying my shoe laces and have long since subscribed to the likes of Timberland footwear. Up to 9 years of age I was - without question - @peace with the world & all that it then comprised for me - but an event then took place in my life when - during a thrashing from my piers, I would have strangled a fellow human being to death, had it not been for others prising my hands away from the throat of my potential ‘victim' - in the flash of the moment I realised I could no longer survive in the world I inhabited - unless I began to stand up for myself and adopt the ways that others - in this strange world - had established as their modus operandi. I subsequently came to the understanding that my destiny in life was to provide the mechanisms by which ALL my fellow human beings could be @peace with the world & all that it comprised for them.…; Added by Michael Grove at 16:19 on January 5, 2012

Comment on: Blog Post 'NOVA & THE PASSENGERS OF SPACESHIP EARTH': I Ching and choosing the right TIME to ACT, utilising the concept of Trigrams that are made up of three lines and these can be unbroken (yang) or broken (yin). The lines signify the two basic forces of the of the physical world, masculine yang energy and the receptive, yielding , feminine yin energy. The wisdom of yang and the compassion of yin unite to produce an infinite number of outcomes. Think of the I Ching as China’s accumulated wisdom and philosophy encapsulated within a set of 64 linear symbols known as hexagrams.These lined symbols describe situations experienced by mankind working together with the forces of the universe. These forces are described by the Chinese as the interactions of teen ti ten, or heaven, earth and mankind. TODAY, WE SEE WAR CONDONED... IN the name of the patriarchal gods of Allah, Jesus and Jehova. The divine is not understood by these people as part of a circular pattern emulating nature, but it is now a linear theology of One shot.. either up to heaven [with optional virgins] or down to hell - Kelly Bell NATURE is our religion, and the eternal cycle our holy book. …; Added by Michael Grove at 22:10 on May 12, 2020

Comment on: Blog Post 'HUBRIS - NEMESIS - CATHARSIS': me willing or able to comply with the tough conditions imposed by the EU at Berlin’s behest." "Europe’s rescue strategy could start to unravel." But we are not without hope. The problems that confront our planet and our humanity – environmental tension, social and family dysfunction, economic instability, and political unrest – give us an opportunity to pause, recognize, re-examine the sources of our suffering, and find a path that can lead us towards a brighter future and to an even brighter present. This is the basic formula that the Buddha used during his own lifetime to guide his fellow beings to tend to their suffering. This basic formula can help guide us now, to our own salvation. The three distinctively Buddhist virtues of mindfulness, concentration, and insight can lead us to this salvation. Applied appropriately and skillfully, they can help us discover a global ethic and a mindful way of living that can guide the development of our society towards a more sane and healthy direction.…; Added by Michael Grove at 14:22 on February 26, 2013
