LIGHT OF DEATH

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

Heraclitus is the first Greek philosopher to come from an aristocratic family. He became disillusioned with his fellow citizens when they chose to remove a prominent figure from office. He didn’t think that most people knew what they were doing, and were quick to accept tradition or go along with the opinions of others. For this reason, he was in favor of an aristocratic government (aristos) rather than a democracy exclaiming “One person is ten thousand to me if he is best.” His disillusionment with others, who could not understand his philosophy, led him ultimately to live a life of solitude in the mountains and to be known also as “The Weeping Philosopher.”

Heraclitus saw that the world is in a constant state of flux. He believed everything changes into it’s opposite, and that this is what maintains the world. “Cold things warm up, the hot cools off, wet becomes dry, dry becomes wet.” The philosophers before him thought there was a fundamental principle of reality (arche) and they identified it with a substance (water, air, the apeiron). For Heraclitus, the fundamental principle of the world isn’t a substance, but rather the principle that everything changes according to a divine guidance, which he called the Word (logos).

ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVE SPECTRUM

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

Here is another marvelous episode of the now defunct “Rocketboom” internet show. Here MemeMolly tells us about how the “electromagnetic spectrum” works. It is VERY interesting to note that HUMAN BODIES are able to perceive only a VERY TINY percentage of the entire spectrum (which is nearly infinite). But, more interesting is that the chemical components of the atmosphere surrounding the infamous planet “Earth” are specifically and uniquely suited to ensure that human being are literally BLIND with regard to our inability to perceive more than an infinitely SMALL part of the entire spectrum of available energy conveyed by the the waves of energy particles that saturate our environment! What happens when you die, or depart from your body? Are you able to “see” more clearly without a body? To learn more, read the book ALIEN INTERVIEW.

A SINGLE THOUGHT

SINGLE RAY OF THOUGHT

“A single ray of light from a distant star falling upon the eye of a tyrant in bygone times may have altered the course of his life, may have changed the destiny of nations, may have transformed the surface of the globe, so intricate, so inconceivably complex are the processes in Nature. In no way can we get such an overwhelming idea of the grandeur of Nature than when we consider, that in accordance with the law of the conservation of energy, throughout the Infinite, the forces are in a perfect balance, and hence the energy of a single thought may determine the motion of a universe.”
