Systemic Universe
I have a theory that basically everything works on what I call an Accumulation/ Discharge Cycle. In karmic terms this is known as The Pendulum Effect and in purely physical terms as the vacuole effect. This includes the tides, seasons, emotions, sex, life and death as a single unit (positive to negative poles), thought and action (again as a single unit), stress and release (relaxation), volcanic

“What I say is my business. How you react to it is your business
To ascertain someone’s true character, don't listen to what they say, look at what they do
The more intelligent you are, the more of an individual you are (same with creativity).
Memory is the prison and imagination the key that frees us from our prejudice and preconceptions
Attention addiction is the most pernicious of addictions. People will destroy themselves and the lives of others around them, just to get or keep attention focused on them and their need for its drug like dependency
Sensitive people are more present than the insensitive, which is why the former jump at the sound of a pin dropping and the latter, not even to a ton weight falling beside them
What you admire you mourn the passing of. What you despise, you are glad to see the back of
Memory and perception depends upon silence and stillness as forgetting depends upon noise and motion (concentration / dispersal of energy and attention)
Reality is not open to discussion. It is not something that changes with your opinion. It works how it works because that is how it works. The laws of reality are the laws of reality and that is it.
If seeing is believing, is hearing deceiving (Being told the Emperor has got new clothes, versus seeing he hasn’t)?
Stillness and silence is about staying present in the present. Noise and motion is abandonment (moving away from your position in time and space).
Discovery is live, that is of the present. Memory is of the dead past (a recording). The first is always a surprise to you, the second is not.
People mistake where consciousness is directed as being consciousness itself, which it isn’t
If we think that we can't solve a problem, we want to eradicate it instead (stop it dead). If we can find a solution, we want to pat ourselves on the back for our creativity or understanding (keeping life / existence moving on, instead of it grinding to a halt).
Culture, habit is that which reinforces our sense of identity
Concentration is control because you are being present
Thinking is an individual task, it is not a discussion with others, which is an exchange of ideas (other people’s thoughts)
You will never understand a problem and resolve it, without exploring it and in depth.
To some, yesterday is the nightmare and tomorrow the dream, to others it is the reverse
Everything seems crazy until you understand it, when it instantly makes sense, even if you you still don’t think it’s sensible”
