Ralph Waldo Emerson - MindSerpent Ralph Waldo Emerson (May 25, 1803 – April 27, 1882) was an American lecturer, philosopher, essayist, and poet, best remembered for leading the Transcendentalist movement of the mid-19th century. He was seen as a champion of individualism and a prescient critic of the countervailing pressures of society, and he disseminated his thoughts through dozens of published essays and more than 1,500 public lectures across the United States. Emerson gradually moved away from the religious and social beliefs of his contemporaries, formulating and expressing the philosophy of Transcendentalism in his 1836 essay, Nature. Following this ground-breaking work, he gave a speech entitled The American Scholar in 1837, which Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. considered to be America’s “Intellectual Declaration of Independence”. Considered one of the great lecturers of the time, Emerson had an enthusiasm and respect for his audience that enraptured crowds. Source:
His Holiness the Dalai Lama "My message is the practice of compassion, love and kindness. These things are very useful in our daily life, and also for the whole of human society these practices can be very important. "Basically, universal responsibility is the feeling for other people's suffering just as we feel our own. It is the realization that even our own enemy is motivated by the quest for happiness. "At the heart of Buddhist philosophy is the notion of compassion for others. "The rationale for universal compassion is based on the same principle of spiritual democracy. "I believe our every-day experience confirms that a self-centred attitude towards problems can be destructive not only towards society, but to the individual as well. "Peace and the survival of life on earth as we know it are threatened by human activities that lack a commitment to humanitarian values. "Our ancestors viewed the earth as rich and bountiful, which it is. Our ancestors viewed the earth as rich and bountiful, which it is.
Can We Please Stop Fighting Cancer? Looking at cancer from a yogic perspective, one word comes to mind: ahimsa, which means non-violence. According to the sage Patanjali, non-violence is the first Yama or right action, the first guiding principle from which to live and choose. And so we must ask ourselves: If we fight our way to health, can we truly be healed? Is it possible that taking a violent approach—trying to beat cancer, conquer cancer, fight cancer, labeling ourselves as cancer survivors—is actually part of the problem? There is a saying in yoga, “When the student is ready, the teacher is there.” At school you have a teacher. When we turn away from a teacher, tell them that they dont have anything to offer us, then we dont graduate, we get stuck and have to repeat the lessons. Many years ago the word disease was explained to me as dis-ease. Yogically we call this “identifying with the samsakara,” mental belief or pattern. But asana is not the only way to shift this reality, its the start. ~Editor: Hayley Samuelson.
Beyond environment: falling back in love with Mother Earth | Guardian Sustainable Business Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh has been practising meditation and mindfulness for 70 years and radiates an extraordinary sense of calm and peace. This is a man who on a fundamental level walks his talk, and whom Buddhists revere as a Bodhisattva; seeking the highest level of being in order to help others. Ever since being caught up in the horrors of the Vietnam war, the 86-year-old monk has committed his life to reconciling conflict and in 1967 Martin Luther King nominated him for the Nobel Peace Prize, saying "his ideas for peace, if applied, would build a monument to ecumenism, to world brotherhood, to humanity." So it seems only natural that in recent years he has turned his attention towards not only addressing peoples' disharmonious relationships with each other, but also with the planet on which all our lives depend. Move beyond concept of the "environment" Change is possible only if there is a recognition that people and planet are ultimately one and the same. "We want to be connected.
Rev. Al Sharpton discusses his inspiration for going vegetarian PETA recently snagged an interview with Rev. Al Sharpton in which he explains his inspiration for going vegetarian. "I overhauled my diet after a 40-day hunger strike when I was in jail for the Vieques protest," explained Sharpton. "I dabbled with weight loss ideas, wanting to keep off the pounds I lost. First, I gave up red meat, then chicken.” Sharpton, who serves as the host for MSNBC's PoliticsNation, continued, “I ran into Bill Clinton, who told me how he has more energy, needs less sleep, and can think more clearly since going vegan, and I can tell you the same thing happened to me. To hear more from Rev.
Destiny In forecasting events at any level from long term trends analysis to the extreme short term forecasting such as gambling, there are three distinct states involved. These are potential, probability, and outcome. As with all other aspects of forecasting, if you alter the environment to affect one of the three, you can instantly constrain the others. Of course, things can be done to alter potential, and thus probability, towards reducing certain outcomes. So this is the point at which we find ourselves, stuck between our as yet not manifest will and the doom included in the spread of outcomes. To my thinking, a far better way to perceive this moment, is that the entrenched powers, thinking themselves elites, are working to tilt the table to cheat most of humanity of their lives. Our data shows a distinct transition point from March 2 through 9 inclusive. We, the regular humans seeking our paths in life, can do so, that is 'cheat against war' by creating novel forms of potential.
