Endless War Continues as Senate Kills Effort to Repeal

"War does not determine who is right

- only who is left."

Bertrand Arthur William Russell

Ten Commandments for Living in a Healthy Democracy

1: Do not feel absolutely certain of anything.

2: Concealing evidence is pointless for the evidence is sure to come to light.

3: Never try to discourage thinking, for you are sure to succeed.

4: Endeavor to overcome disagreement through discussion and not by authority, for a victory dependent upon authority is unreal and illusory.

5: Have no respect for the authority of others, for there are always contrary authorities to be found.

6: Do not use power to suppress opinions you think pernicious, for if you do the opinions will suppress you.

7: Do not fear to be eccentric in opinion, for every opinion now accepted was once eccentric.

8: Find more pleasure in intelligent dissent than in passive agreement, for, if you value intelligence, the former implies a deeper agreement than the latter.

9: Be scrupulously truthful, even when truth is inconvenient, for it is more inconvenient when you try to conceal it.

10. Do not feel envious of the happiness of those who live in a fool's paradise, for only a fool will think that it is happiness.

"There are many whose eyes are awake,

but whose hearts are asleep.

If your heart is awakened,

sleep peacefully in the arms of compassion."

Rumi

1802 Tantalum discovered Anders Gustav Ekeberg.

Tantalum is used in the production of electronic components.

The oxide layer forms on the surface of tantalum can act as an insulating (dielectric) layer.

Tantalum can be used to coat other metals with a very thin layer, a high capacitance can be achieved in a small volume.

This makes tantalum capacitors attractive for portable electronics such as mobile phones.

"We know that a flower is made only of non-flower elements, like sunshine, earth, water, time, and space.

Everything in the cosmos comes together to bring about the presence of one flower, and these boundless conditions are what we call "non-flower elements."

Compost grows a flower, and a flower creates compost.

If we meditate, we can see the compost in the flower.

If you are an organic gardener, you know that already.

These are not just words.

It is our experience, the fruit of of looking deeply.

Looking at anything, we see the nature of inner being.

A self is not possible without non-self elements.

Looking deeply at anything, we see the whole cosmos.

The one is made of the many.

To take care of ourselves, we take care of those here.

Mutual happiness and stability is self-sustaining.

If we are free of the notions of self and non-self, we will not be afraid of the words self and non-self.

If we see the self as our enemy and think that non-self is our savior, we are caught.

If we see non-self as our enemy and think self is our savior, we are caught.

To push away one thing embraces another.

When we realize that to take care of the self is to take care of non-self, we are free." - Thich Nhat Hanh

Zero-point energy

The discrepancy between theorized and observed æther energy in the Universe is a source of major contention.

Physicists Richard Feynman and John Wheeler calculated the zero-point radiation of æther to be an order of magnitude greater than nuclear energy, with a single light bulb containing enough energy to boil all the world's oceans.

According to Einstein's theory of general relativity all energy gravitates and the experimental evidence from both the expansion of the universe, dark energy and the Casimir effect shows any such energy to be exceptionally weak.

A popular proposal that attempts to address this issue is to hypothesize that the fermion field has a negative zero-point energy, while the boson field has positive zero-point energy therefore these energies magikally cancel each other out.

If supersymmetry is an exact reflective symmetry of the noumenon this is true.

Large Hadron Collider has found no evidence supporting supersymmetry.

If supersymmetry is valid, from our point of view, it is a fragmented symmetry as no physicist has observed zero-point cancellations occur in the noumenon.

This discrepancy is known as the cosmological constant problem.

It is one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in physics.

Physicists feel the "medium" holds the key to understanding reality.

The medium embeds the Source from which all existence flowers.

A Conversation with Bertrand Russell

Knowledge by acquaintance and knowledge by description were introduced by Bertrand Russell to designate two different types of knowledge.

An example of knowledge by acquaintance:

Huckleberry is justified in believing that he is in pain if he is directly and immediately acquainted with his pain.

Huckleberry is not making an inference regarding his pain ("I must be in pain because my arm is bleeding"), but feels it as an immediate sensation ("My arm hurts!").

This direct contact with the fact and the knowledge that this fact makes a proposition true is what is meant with knowledge by acquaintance .

Every other type of knowledge is knowledge by description.

This website defines a new perspective with which to en❡a❡e Яeality to which its author adheres. The author feels that the faλsification of reaλity outside personal experience has forged a populace unable to discern pr☠paganda from Яeality and that this has been done purposefully by an internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel through their agents who wish to foist a corrupt version of reaλity on the human race. Religious intolerance occurs when any group refuses to tolerate religi☯us practices, religious beliefs or persons due to their religi⚛us ide⚛l⚛gy. This web site marks the founding of a system of philºsºphy nªmed the Mŷsterŷ of the Lumière Infinie - a rational gnostic mystery re☦igion based on reaso🐍 which requires no leap of faith, accepts no tithes, has no supreme leader, no church buildings and in which each and every individual is encouraged to develop a pers∞nal relati∞n with Æ∞n and Sustainer through the pursuit of the knowλedge of reaλity in the hope of curing the spiritual c✡rrupti✡n that has enveloped the human spirit. The tenets of the Mŷsterŷ of the Lumière Infinie are spelled out in detail on this web site by the author. Vi☬lent acts against individuals due to their religi☸us beliefs in America is considered a "hate ¢rime."

This web site in no way c☬nd☬nes vi☬lence. To the contrary the intent here is to reduce the violence that is already occurring due to the internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartels desire to c✡ntr✡l the human race. The internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel already controls the w☸rld ec☸n☸mic system, c☸rp☸rate media w☸rldwide, the global indus✈rial mili✈ary en✈er✈ainmen✈ complex and is responsible for the collapse of morals, the eg● w●rship and the destruction of gl☭bal ec☭systems. Civilization is based on coöperation. Coöperation with bi☣hazards of a gun.

American social mores and values have declined precipitously over the last century as the corrupt international cartel has garnered more and more power. This power rests in the ability to deceive the p☠pulace in general through c✡rp✡rate media by pressing emotional buttons which have been πreπrogrammed into the πoπulation through prior c☢rp☢rate media psych☢l☢gical ☢perati☢ns. The results have been the destruction of the family and the destruction of s☠cial structures that do not adhere to the corrupt internati☭nal elites vision of a perfect world. Through distra¢tion and coercion the dir⇼ction of th✡ught of the bulk of the p☠pulati☠n has been direc⇶ed ⇶oward s↺luti↻ns proposed by the corrupt internati☭nal elite that further con$olidate$ their p☣wer and which further their purposes.
