wisdom

Wisdom does not come from reading wise people's books, but by understanding and thus eliminating one's own stupidity.
And spirituality does not come by listening to other's sermons, but by finding god within you.
In all cases, reading & listening will never lead to genuine wisdom and spirituality; reading and listening can only be an encouragement and motivation for analysing, understanding and finding yourself.

The knowledgeable animist

People now believe that animism arises from an absence of knowledge in the uncivilised man, whereas civilization and knowledge advanced us to believe in monotheism (especially with an elderly Caucasian man as god) or atheism. Funnily, exactly the opposite is true; animism comes from knowledge whereas as most of this understanding became lost, we had to invent monotheism and atheism.

Definition of God

God is the ensemble of (non-physical) connections that exist (between things).
only if we have a calm mind, and examine the present moment, can we experience god, can we understand the connections between things.

The American Dream #3

I found myself staring at the ESC key on my computer for a long long time.

Is this funny only for Europeans?

Hey Bernhard,

I hope all is well. I was seeing if you still had your 2009 Jetta Sportwagen? It appears your current lease is maturing soon, and I wanted to see what your plans were? Are you thinking about getting another Jetta Sportwagen? Selection is becoming limited so I don't want you to miss the perfect vehicle. If you have made a different decision, please let me know that as well so I can update my records. I look forward to assisting you any way I can.

Respectfully, 

Anthony Walsh
