A teacher asks Ivankov: Can you tell me something about the soul? Ivankov: Of course! The soul is part of a person, and it has legs. ??? Why so surprised? Every night I hear my dad say: Soul, spread your legs. 😈
It’s not about the senses—animals have those too. It’s about the ability to process sensory input the way humans do.
I don't know why so many people lack a mathematical "ear," but I do know that those who possess it are true artists of mental intuition. And if intuition isn't a sense... then what is? 😬
Listen, Velma, you've practically brushed against reincarnation here. 😘 The FEWER times Spirit has reincarnated—meaning the person holding that Spirit, they lack any kind of mathematical "ear." 😈 The MORE times Spirit has reincarnated—meaning the person holding that Spirit, they are gifted with the ability to be an artist of mental intuition. 😍
Brandon Martin7 said:👋 I don't want to diminish a mathematician's natural instinct for interpreting art, but it would be much more convincing if you hadn't used "a group of plumbers, locksmiths, or housewives" as a benchmark for an artwork's quality. Art is about feeling, while math is arguably the most clinical thing there is. That approach feels a bit like trying to fix a masterpiece with a pair of tweezers. Personally, I love Escher's style, but not because it qualifies as high art. By the way, thanks for the link; it’s not about aesthetics, but it’s definitely food for thought.
Sorry man, but you're missing the point here. Do you actually know which field of science symmetry falls under? If you do, take a look at http://www.mcescher.nl/Gallery/gallerynl.htm and check out that last presentation on Symmetry...
If you aren't sure, just read this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry
Brandon Martin7 said:Echer is just a hack and a total amateur.
If you had written that it was... For you. "Echer is just an amateur," they say. Honestly, I wouldn't even bother writing what I wrote if that were the case.
Look, if what you wrote works for you, that’s fine. But just because it makes sense to you doesn't mean it'll click for everyone else, right? Escher isn't exactly easy for the average person to grasp. It's been proven.They’re sharp; more than just intellectuals, really. And that’s exactly why they—the intellectuals, the thinkers—finally realized the truth about Escher. Artistic greatness. What were the actual reasons that led to him securing his own Museum in the middle of Amsterdam?
By the way, I’d suggest checking out what the members of the Mathematical Association of America have to say about Escher on this page: I found this PDF from the Mathematical Association of America. It looks like an interesting read for anyone interested in deep mathematical theory. Is it worth diving into? You'll run into plenty of opinions like that on just about any site, no matter what language they're written in.
So, if you really think your little critique only insulted Escher's art, you're dead wrong. By attacking a legend like him the way you did, aren't you also insulting the judgment of billions of other intellectuals who simply don't agree with your take?
viviana said:After reading your explanation—which I really appreciate—I feel like I could just keep reading and searching forever. It all points back to one thing: there is a universal principle of construction underlying everything that exists, down to the smallest detail.
Olivia Carter25: Come on, share the name of that ISP with us! I'd love to start surfing the cosmic fields too.
hiddenviper9: I know your comment is probably just a joke I shouldn't take seriously—but something tells me I should introduce you to this idea.
What's the point if it isn't WRITTEN for you to connect with a cosmic Internet service? And if it IS WRITTEN that you make that connection, you'll find it whether you want to or not.
But there's one thing you should know. Those for whom it is WRITTEN to make that contact can expect a reward—provided they do exactly what is being imposed upon them from the transnational realm. It’s also worth noting that from the moment of Connection, life itself is "steered" for those who are connected, without any active effort on their part. They are guided into a situation where they have enough time to maintain mental connections with transnational fields, have everything required for a normal life, keep their psychological state healthy, and live out the years destined for them by the SCRIPT...
I’m speaking from my own experience and my wife's—as well as others we know who clearly fall into the group of those consciously connected to the cosmic internet.
Back in 1991, my wife and I were left in the States with absolutely nothing. Yet, by 2000—just nine years later—we had everything (something I couldn't have achieved in fifty years back then). We had a house, cars, all sorts of appliances, computers, and every tool imaginable for woodworking and my other hobbies, plus a decent amount of savings in the bank. Up until that year, my wife held a steady job with a good salary in tech, while my income was very low. And we did it all through the most honest means possible. If I hadn't been granted this free time, I certainly wouldn't know what I know today (knowledge that touches upon "ontological values"), I wouldn't have written three books that are printed and sold throughout America (from which I haven't taken a single cent, which doesn't bother me at all), and I wouldn't be able to heal people through alternative methods—which I do for FREE. I also wouldn't be able to pursue my other passions, like painting, making frames for my art (most of which I give away to friends), or doing home renovations... Ultimately, I wouldn't even be able to write my fourth book.
It’s also interesting to mention that (again, without our intervention) since 2000, my wife has stayed home and hasn't worked—even though our income is more than enough to support us.
Jonathan Brown6 Do you really think it’s even possible to explain?
Anything is possible because "impossible" doesn't actually exist. (Think about it this way: "Incredible" is just a matter of perspective, but "impossible" isn't a thing.)
If it's true, you can give an answer in a single sentence.
Actually, if it's true, you could even do it with just one word. 🙂
Jonathan Brown6 He knows what you meant, but instead of clarifying the ambiguity, he just pulls your mistake out of context to point it out.
hiddenviper9: Jonathan Brown6, What logical basis do you have for thinking I should explain myself to some random person on a forum?
Look, my way of debating is to simply point out—if someone uses a wrong term in their argument—exactly where they went wrong, without actually giving them the answer. Now, if that person actually wants to fully grasp what they wrote, they need to think about where they used the wrong term. If they're smart, they'll find the error themselves. If they can't find it, they can ask—which is how they show they at least tried. In that case, if they ask me, I'll provide the explanation—provided it doesn't take up too much "time and space." That’s why I asked: Nancy Fowler61, when you write a sentence, do you actually read it back and really think about what you're saying?
Nancy Fowler61, Let’s rephrase that, but this time as a complete thought. Can a body that has never received any stimulus or lacks senses be conscious? It can't, because consciousness relies on experience, memory, and knowledge, all of which we gather through our senses and store in the brain. The brain is physical. It's hard to imagine a person being conscious without a brain.
Let's clear this up: 1. Can a body that has never received any stimulus...
No! Because a body DOESN'T receive a stimulus—rather, something acts upon it so that a STIMULUS appears within the body.
And a Stimulus MUST appear in EVERY body—because every single body in any star system is under the constant "impact" of photons, which inevitably act to create many stimuli in EVERY living and dead body.
2. Can a body that has never received any stimulus (???) /lacks senses... be conscious? (??? = my note)
Regarding this explanation: senses—or more accurately, sensory organs—MUST be "built into" the body of every living human (and not just humans). However, if those sensory organs are under certain blockages—created within the autonomic nervous system—those blockages prevent the energy impulses of Consciousness from acting to produce the stimuli that would normally hit the sensory organs.
3. Can a body that has never received any stimulus (???)/lacks senses/ be conscious?
To answer this, we first have to know what Consciousness is. But can anyone even answer what Consciousness is, when to this day, no one has ever provided a COMPLETE definition of it? To even attempt a definition of Consciousness, one must understand the Value of the ontological sphere. And if we want to reach the Value of the ontological sphere, we have to know which Values comprise the infinite nature, and what specific Values actually make the infinite nature... infinite, etc.
So, Jonathan Brown6, did you actually understand any of that? And do you honestly think it's possible to explain what "haunts" people since their very birth in just "five sentences"?
Regardless, I know quite a lot about consciousness. But before I finish the book I'm (occasionally) working on, I won't be sharing my knowledge of consciousness in places like internet forums.
Finally, Nancy Fowler61, I notice that your view on deafness, blindness, paralysis, or lacking a nose and tongue doesn't apply to consciousness itself, but rather to Cognition (which is the highest mental activity of consciousness, unique to humans). Because the totally impaired body you described isn't totally "cut off" from consciousness—it's just been "denied" the Cognition required to live, to think, and to move—to act psycho-physically.
As for the rest of the complete thought, figure it out yourself.
Nancy Fowler61, when you sit down to write a sentence, do you actually take a second to read it back and really think about what you're saying?
Look, you wrote: Can a body that has never received any kind of stimulus...
That point doesn't even hold water for a debate—there isn't a single living or dead body that exists without receiving some form of stimulus, even for the smallest fraction of a second.
Did a brain emerge first, creating consciousness at a specific moment in time,
Or is that irrelevant, since you already agreed that consciousness is ETERNAL? Do you honestly believe the brain is eternal too? 😕
mistyfox812: Dehaer, did those units give you a bit of a scare?
hiddenviper9: Or maybe it's my fault for ripping out the outlet, or perhaps I used a little too much chloroform on the wipe?
Anyway, I fixed the socket and popped in a new plug, then gave the wipe a quick spritz with some Christian Dior perfume. So, there's 😘 from young hiddenviper9. Anything to keep the peace at home.
But let me get serious for a second. Don't fall for the idea that "Nothingness" ever actually existed. The truth is, "Something" exists ETERNALLY!
In reality, Nothingness can only exist in the minds of people who can't grasp that primordial matter—the "great-grandmother of all matter"—is ETERNAL. That primordial matter still exists today, just outside the boundaries of the cosmos.
That’s why Consciousness was also ETERNAL (long before the cosmos was created)! Sure, back then, that Consciousness hadn't reached the Value of our modern Universal Consciousness (which manifests within the cosmos)—it had reached the Value of total logic. Essentially, whenever anything changed within the infinity of nature, it changed according to the law of total logic.
hiddenviper9: Honestly, I’m really glad to see this coming from you. I actually value your posts quite a bit. So—no worries at all!
If I remember correctly, you were describing an experience involving something that wasn't just a regular earthly being, but something from a higher plane, or something like that.
Let me be specific. I’ve been "working" with quartz crystals for 18 years now. Chemically, they're silicon dioxide (SiO2), which is used in basically every device we use to send or receive data—think radio, TV, microphones, transistors, or even how computers store and transmit information. Beyond that, crystal absorbs and reflects color frequencies from the light spectrum, making it an incredible healing medium. It acts as a unique medical tool by delivering light energy to our physical bodies, which essentially "feeds" our energy fields. That’s why, after being sick constantly when I was younger (I even dealt with cancer), I haven't had to visit a doctor since I started working with crystals. (I’m only mentioning this so you don't think I'm some guy staring into a crystal ball predicting "a package is arriving from the US" or that someone is going to marry a certain person... 😁).
In the course of this work, I’ve made energetic—or rather, mental—contacts with memories located within memory fields (sort of like hard drives, if you will) that are "woven" into the power grids formed by strings—which is how the cosmic Internet is structured. (You can find more about strings on Google under string theory).
As for the existence of these memory fields, Leibniz actually pointed us toward them, calling those fields "monads." Of course, modern scientists just dismissed him, saying, "Who cares what that fool thinks? Monads aren't real." 👎
To keep it brief—my material consciousness is (not by my own choice) "plugged into" the Cosmic INTERNET. That’s why I often point out that much of the information I share isn't from MY material consciousness, but is information I've received from the High Sphere.
mistyfox812, or rather "-- & 0," says the old man: It’s an honor to be grouped with those two legends who supposedly received their wisdom through direct revelation from higher beings...
It’s obvious—typical behavior for people who don't actually read what's on the page, but instead just read whatever they want to see. Because... why doesn't our "brilliant" friend "-- & 0" use that incredible intellect of theirs to actually point out where I ever claimed to receive knowledge from "higher beings" in any of my work? Whether it's in my magazine articles, my books, or right here on this forum...
One quick note: It seems you might be confusing different dimensions with higher beings.
Honestly, if you understood that the cosmos is divided into ten levels, and that the strings surrounding our solar system formed across five distinct levels, you probably wouldn't have reacted so blindly. At least not regarding me.
Amy Martinez5: As for me, my blood pressure isn't high.
Michael Jones23: It wasn't an issue for me either; I've never dealt with high blood pressure!
hiddenviper9: Blood pressure fluctuates constantly, shifting throughout the day and night based on all sorts of internal and external factors. These shifts happen because the body activates various mechanisms to maintain steady flow as living conditions change. Those fluctuations can be short-term too... things even the healthiest people experience.
Anyway, don't feel like you have to explain it to me. Regarding what meditation offers—it might be enough to mention that back in 1989, I was already publishing books on self-healing. Two more were released here in the States in 1999, one of which was even translated into German and Dutch.
Look, nobody here mentioned having high blood pressure!
I guess we aren't exactly on the same page here.
In most cases, those "weird" heart palpitations are actually linked to fluctuations in blood pressure—whether it's spiking or dropping. That triggers anxiety, which leads to mental stress, and if that isn't managed, it can turn into a chronic issue.
Sarah Cruz2: Right now, I’m not really focused on the game itself. I’m thinking about her. If anyone out there is willing to share from their own experience (and thank you so much to everyone who reached out!!), what was your driving force during your illness? What kept you fighting? I would truly appreciate it!
hiddenviper9: From what I’ve seen, finding motivation when dealing with cancer often comes down to creativity—things like writing, painting, photography, or even just working on a puzzle. It can also be that stubborn drive to prove something to the world. I actually posted a piece on my spirituality page about cyclist Lance Armstrong (though, sadly, it didn't spark much of a conversation— 😕 how disappointing is that? ). His sheer determination to be the best cyclist in the world is what helped him overcome his illness. For me, back when I was battling it, my unspoken goal was simply to write a great book or paint a masterpiece...
On top of that, I think a patient needs to approach cancer the same way they’d handle a bad flu... just accept it for what it is.
Roughly speaking: I'm wondering if there's any kind of "shield" to stop all this "vibrational" nonsense from soaking in.
hiddenviper9: There is!
You could try Transcendental Meditation (though you actually need some cash to learn it properly), or there's a simple way to meditate for free—provided you have the brains for it. So, probably not for everyone. Of course, it helps if you're sharp and well-read—plus, you really need to be able to mentally visualize objects "bathing" in light.
