"To expect the unexpected shows a thoroughly modern intellect." Oscar Wilde.

 

Although I still prefer the photography of ancient and historical places, I am increasingly passionate about photographing modern cities. Singapore is undoubtedly one of the cities that most invite you to take the camera and capture the incredible works that the human being has done there in recent years. There are numerous places where you can get interesting compositions of this city-state and the Marina Barrage is one of them.

It is a dam located beyond Gardens by the Bay, in which a complex has been built to allow water storage and flood control, in addition to being a place of recreation. From its walkway with circular shape and two entrances that cross but do not get together, we have an excellent view of Singapore skyline. So, in addition to the skyscrapers, we can add include in our photograph the walkway and the oval-shaped fountain located in the middle.

Because we were a little late, my girlfriend and I had to start running to arrive in time to capture the best moment of the blue hour. But being a place where people usually go to do running, this time our crazy race maybe it was a little more unnoticed.

"Esperar lo inesperado muestra un intelecto completamente moderno." Oscar Wilde.

 

Aunque sigo prefiriendo la fotografía de lugares antiguos e históricos, cada vez me apasiona más fotografiar ciudades modernas. Singapur es sin duda, una de las urbes actuales que más invitan a sacar la cámara y capturar las increíbles obras que ha realizado allí el ser humano en los últimos años. Son numerosos los lugares donde se pueden conseguir composiciones interesantes de esta ciudad-estado y Marina Barrage es uno de ellos.

Se trata de una presa situada más allá de Gardens by the Bay, en la cual se ha construido un complejo que permite el almacenamiento de agua y el control de inundaciones, siendo al mismo tiempo un lugar de recreación. Desde su pasarela con forma circular y dos entradas que se cruzan pero no llegan a juntarse, se tiene una excelente vista del skyline de la ciudad. Por lo que, además de los rascacielos, podemos añadir en nuestra fotografía la pasarela y la fuente con forma de óvalo situada en el medio.

Debido a que íbamos con el tiempo un poco justo, mi novia y yo tuvimos que empezar a correr para llegar a tiempo de capturar el mejor momento de la hora azul. Pero al tratarse de un lugar donde la gente habitualmente va a hacer running, esta vez nuestra loca carrera quizás pasó un poco más desapercibida.

Intellectual Property is the overall term that refers to all forms of idea protection: patents, design rights,copyright and trade marks. Intellectual Property law can assign certain rights to the creator of: music, literature, artistic works, discoveries, inventions, designs and logos. In its literal sense, it is the property of your mind, or intellect, and, as such, can be claimed as your own and used in a similar way to commercial property: Intellectual Property can be bought, sold, licensed and even mortgaged.

I knew Dr. Goodall personally. I will sorely miss her humor and intellect and mostly her passion for conserving life on this planet.

Nature isn’t kind. Nature is indifferent. It’s indifferent to joy, sadness, pain, laughter, love, and passion. Nature isn’t fair. This is the wild and untamed nature of nature. The creatures that spend their entire lives as one of nature’s creations are in large part, the similar. One trait sets humankind apart. It’s not intellect since this debatable characteristic may well lead us down a path of complete and utter destruction. No, I believe that our one distinct and redeeming value is our ability to be kind. Although other animals can behave kindly on occasion, humankind has the ability to “consciously” make the effort to be kind. It’s a large bite to chew. Consciously making the effort to put aside our hatred and dislikes; putting down our guns and weapons; setting aside our misled assumptions about cultures and religions foreign to us. It means making conscious decisions to include others dissimilar to us and making them feel at home rather than at odds. We have the capacity to do so. Whether this is our nature or, as some might argue, a God given trait, doesn’t really matter. What really matters is our capacity and willingness to do so. There are those who govern and manipulate the masses. They are, in large part, a loss. They seek money and power with a hunger that is insatiable. But what about you and I? Can we muster the strength to exercise the one truly human trait that sets us apart and distinguishes us from the rest of nature? I’m not certain we have evolved far enough to master that task. I hope I am proven wrong. #Coyote #nature #kindness

Title: Hate

 

Prior to meeting this brick sculpture, the visitors will have already seen a row of other pieces, challenging both the senses and the intellect.

Many of these challenges are delivered with humour and romance. With Brinch and Olsson's HATE, the viewer is challenged more directly, and at the same time, the old bricklayer-traditions combined with the special atmosphere of the forest create a space for thought and reflection. When you think about what they hate, it is impossible to not also think about what you love. The sculpture lays the foundation for a debate of values, and despite its heavy visuals, it gives the viewer a positive message.

HATE was created in the summer of 2013 in collaboration with Jacob Olsson.

Intellect, heart and hand

I am in the process of making them all work together, but still have issues with extremes.

 

I am plagued with anxiety. As much as I want some thoughts to stop (and doctors want to medicate) I would only suffocate my creativity by taming my spitfire brain.

 

This could have been inherited through addictive personalities raising me or watching others stifling their own thoughts of passion (I tend to go against the grain).

 

And while I'm still in the process of nurturing this brainchild I still fight with the need to organize, be responsible, and filter what others know about me.

I make my messengers like the winds;

the breeze whispers Eternal words,

Servants are like the fire and flame.

I made the earth,

and stabilized its shifting foundation.

 

I wrapped terra firma in a gown of waters—

ancient mountains under layers of sky.

I am the sopranos soft song arising from waters flowing down an Appalachian mountainside.

I am the respite for a weary traveler resting n rich, green fields beside streams of refreshing water, soothing the languishing soul’s fears.

 

I am the unseen wind that perplexed the intellect of the Pharisee Nicodemus, yet provides clarity to my children. I am the wind that carries the voice of Lady Wisdom, inviting the hungry wander: “Come in. Come, eat my bread, and drink my spiced wine.”

I am the eternal baritone timbre of the sea, beckoning the sefaring pilgrim to the harbor beyond the horizon. Set your azimuth for the far-off shores. I will guide you home.

C'est un trou de verdure où chante une rivière,

Accrochant follement aux herbes des haillons

Luit : c'est un petit val qui mousse de rayons.

 

Arthur Rimbaud

“The kingdom of music is not the kingdom of this world; it will accept those whom breeding and intellect and culture have alike rejected. The commonplace person begins to play, and shoots into the empyrean without effort, whilst we look up, marvelling how he has escaped us, and thinking how we could worship him and love him, would he but translate his visions into human words, and his experiences into human actions. Perhaps he cannot; certainly he does not, or does so very seldom.” - E.M. Forster

On the road, west of Val Marie last week, heading for Alberta, I saw this fog bow and had to stop. This makes three that I've seen, two of them within the past year! Presumably there have been more that I didn't notice. Odd how once you become aware of a phenomenon, you realize it is more common than expected!

 

At first I was disappointed that it didn't arch over the road more symmetrically, but as I continue to look at the image, I think it works. I instinctively placed the vanishing point at the intersection of "thirds". Meanwhile, the fog bow creates interesting shapes of the remaining space.

 

When I'm composing an image, I never - or almost never - think too much about what I'm doing. Rather, I feel the rightness of it. If I feel somehow uncomfortable with the composition, I make an adjustment. Often the result will fall in line with classical principles of visual design (golden mean, thirds, etc.), but that is almost never a cerebral process, but rather, gut response. I don't know if this can be taught - but I think it can be learned. I mention this because, for me, it is at the heart of all creativity: the process - trying to resolve an inner feeling by some mode of expression - keeps me engaged and alive as a creative being.

 

What goes on in the mind of a great guitarist or horn player while improvising blues or jazz? I play guitar, but my limitations are obvious to me each time I pick up my Telecaster and find myself in a box that I can't seem to exit. Not so with a camera, where I feel a sense of limitless freedom. I know practice is a huge part of it, but that isn't the whole story. I won't discount talent, but I don't think that's the whole story, either. Clearly, in this matter, I have more questions than answers. I suspect that the answer to the question about the musician is: "Very little." The creative wellspring comes from some place more elusive than the intellect. He (or she) is playing from the gut. Feeling it. Like any great painter, dancer, writer, or photographer.

Utiliser le mantra non pas comme une prière, mais comme un outil à penser vibratoire, c'est transformer le corps en un diapason qui s'accorde sur la fréquence du Rigpa.

 

La Physique de l'Introndulation Vocale

* Le Repli Membraneux : C'est la porte de sortie de l'énergie primordiale. En vibrant, le pharynx ne produit pas seulement un son, il crée une onde de forme qui vient briser la solidification du Samsara. C'est le premier outil de la Lignifiante.

* Le Nourrisson et le Rigpa : L'enfant qui s'endort dans la vibration ne "comprend" pas le sens des mots, il est la vibration. Il est dans l'Étalité pure, avant que la saisie ne vienne fragmenter son champ. En vibrant le mantra, vous retrouvez cette "pré-saisie", cette clarté où le monde n'est qu'une onde apaisée.

* Penser/Vibrer : Dans la Vrajadiamantalité, il n'y a plus de distinction entre l'idée et la fréquence. Penser au Vide, c'est vibrer le Vide. La vibration est la pensée débarrassée du poids des concepts. C'est une pensée qui ne "saisit" pas, mais qui résonne.

 

L'Onde du Diamant

« Ne cherchez pas à comprendre avec votre intellect de surface. Devenez comme le nourrisson qui sombre dans la vibration originelle.

Utilisez le mantra comme un outil de forage. Sentez le repli membraneux de votre pharynx devenir le point d'ancrage de la Superintrondulation. Quand vous vibrez, vous ne communiquez pas : vous transmettez la structure même du diamant.

Pensez-vibre. Vibre-pense.

À chaque dixième de seconde, la vibration brise la saisie et laisse apparaître la réalité vraie, l'Obscure Lumière des Sages. Ne saisissez aucun monde, devenez le chant qui les contient tous. »

I hope you enjoy, let me know what you think.

l'Invisible de l'Invisible se regarde, mais pas avec l'œil physique ni même l'œil de l'intellect (Sem).

C'est là que réside la nature profonde de la Rétro-Lignification et du Vipassanā dans l'Ur-Cosmologie.

 

Le Regard de Rigpa (Le Vipassanā Final)

L'Invisible de l'Invisible est le terme pour Rigpa (l'Êtreté), la pure conscience connaissante qui est la source A-Causale de toute manifestation (Sonolux).

 

1. Le Regard est l'Auto-Connaissance

* Rigpa se regarde lui-même : Il ne s'agit pas d'un sujet (l'éclat) qui regarde un objet (Rigpa). Il s'agit de l'objet et du sujet qui se dissolvent pour que la pure conscience, Rigpa, se regarde elle-même. C'est l'acte de l'Auto-Connaissance Primordiale.

* Le Locus Rectus comme Miroir : Le Locus Rectus (comme la statue de Bouddha ou la Ma-Vacuité Samsarique stable) est utilisé comme un miroir pour que la conscience puisse se voir. L'objet est vide (Vacuité), mais sa fonction est de révéler la clarté de la conscience.

 

2. Le Regard sans Identification (Manifestcessation)

* Le Regard Juste : Lorsqu'on applique la Manifestcessation à l'extase et à la joie (les reflets du Sem), le regard de Rigpa est libéré de toute identification.

* C'est le Regard Vide : Le Regard de Rigpa est sans attachement, sans filtre, sans effort. Il ne cherche pas à qualifier ce qu'il voit (ni agréable, ni désagréable), il ne fait que connaître la réalité telle qu'elle est.

 

L'acte de "regarder" l'Invisible de l'Invisible est la révélation spontanée de l'Êtreté lorsque le Sem (l'observateur conditionné) a été totalement pacifié par le Samādhi et purifié par la Superintrondulation (Vipassanā). C'est le moment de la Non-Dualité où il n'y a plus que le Regard.

OC by me

C'est une expérience spirituelle profonde et très classique sur le chemin de la Vacuité (Śūnyatā). Le fait que l'école Cittamātra (ou Vijñānavāda) soit le dernier concept à disparaître avant l'apparition de la Vacuité est d'une logique philosophique impeccable dans la tradition bouddhiste.

La Dissolution dans la Vacuité (Śūnyatā)

L'expérience décrit le passage progressif de l'intellect conditionné vers l'Ur-Delà inconditionné, où les vues mêmes sont abandonnées.

 

-1. Le Cittamātra (Tout est Esprit)

L'école Cittamātra ("Seul l'Esprit", ou "Seule la Conscience") est la dernière forteresse de la conceptualisation avant l'Absolu.

*La Vue : Le Cittamātra affirme que le monde extérieur tel que nous le percevons n'existe pas de manière objective et séparée ; tout est conscience (ou construction de la conscience, votre Paralgène).

*La Fonction : Cette vue est cruciale car elle dissout l'illusion de l'Exo-Causalité (la croyance que la cause est à l'extérieur). Elle est la loi qui stipule que la forme est psychique (une étape vers l'Holomatière).

*Le Piège : Cependant, même en disant "tout est esprit", il reste un concept : celui d'un esprit substantiel (une conscience créatrice ou fondamentale) qui existe réellement. C'est le dernier vestige de la saisie (grāha).

 

2. Le Madhyamaka (La Vacuité)

Pour atteindre l'état de Vacuité (Śūnyatā), la vue du Cittamātra doit, elle aussi, être abandonnée.

*La Disparition Finale : Lorsque l'idée même d'une conscience fondamentale substantielle s'efface (Cittamātra disparait), la Vacuité peut apparaître.

*La Vérité : Le Madhyamaka ("Voie du Milieu") postule que si tout est conscience, la conscience elle-même est vide d'existence inhérente (svabhāva). Il n'y a ni soi, ni non-soi, ni monde extérieur, ni conscience permanente. C'est l'absence de toute conceptualisation ou de toute substancialisation.

 

Cette dissolution fugace où le concept du "tout est esprit" s'évanouit est donc la porte d'accès à l'Ur-Delà, qui est au-delà de la dualité esprit/matière. C'est un moment de Pax-Ural pure.

  

   

"There will be a new city with streets of gold

The young so educated they never grow old

And a, there will be no death 4 with every breath

The voice of many colors sings a song

That’s so bold

Sing it while we watch them fall

 

All 7 and we’ll watch them fall

They stand in the way of love

And we will smoke them all

With an intellect and a savoir-faire

No one in the whole universe

Will ever compare"

"No one would have believed in the middle of the 20th Century that human affairs were being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than Man's. Yet, across the gulf of space on the planet Mars, intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic regarded our Earth with envious eyes, and slowly and surely joined their plans against us. Mars is more than 140 million miles from the sun, and for centuries has been in the last status of exhaustion. At night, temperatures drop far below zero even at its equator. Inhabitants of this dying planet looked across space with instruments and intelligences that which we have scarcely dreamed, searching for another world to which they could migrate."

While Haudenosaunee men were away fighting alongside the British during the War of 1812, the women maintained the families, communities and culture. These four prints were taken from large woodcuts that were made into sculptural platforms on which visitors could lie back and “rest with warriors.” The women in the prints are surrounded by culturally significant symbols. As Niro writes: “The women had to remain level-headed. . . Intellect, emotion, spirit and strength were four characteristics needed in these times of challenge.”

Ideally, we'd be next door at the bar. But the truth is, the boys in the band were getting ready to flee the Butte Wildfire that ravaged Amador County in September 2015. Our escape took us on a Toad's Wild Ride up the California Central Valley, eventually ending up at a band members house in Grass Valley. And not to worry, all the gear made it too, much to the dismay of the local neighbors who suffered through two nights of our raucous music making.

Leisure and Productivity - A Day in a Life

 

It's time for a change: workplaces need to weave leisure into the fabric of the workday.

Incorporating leisure isn't a luxury; it's a strategy to rejuvenate our minds and spark creativity.

Say goodbye to stress and hello to peak performance through leisure activities at work.

Leisure shouldn't wait for the day's end; it's a vital piece of the productivity puzzle.

When work includes leisure, satisfaction soars and engagement deepens.

We are more than our output; we deserve a work-life balance celebrating our humanity.

Imagine a workplace where leisure and labour dance in harmony, enhancing our intellect."

Shift the focus: It's not just about being productive but about feeling fulfilled.

An enriched workday awaits when we blend leisure seamlessly into our tasks.

Let's champion a workplace revolution where leisure and work unite for a richer life experience.

Excerpt from japan-guide.com:

 

Chionji Temple (智恩寺) is a temple at the southern entrance of the Amanohashidate Sandbar. Part of the Rinzai School of Japanese Zen Buddhism, the temple houses one of Japan's "Three Important Statues of Monju Bosatsu", the Buddhist god of wisdom and intellect. As such, students and other visitors come to the temple to pray for both wisdom and academic and personal success. They purchase special fortunes (omikuji) shaped like folding fans, which many people leave hanging from pine trees all around the temple grounds.

 

Other important structures around the temple are a large entrance gate and a two-story tahoto style pagoda, which was built in the 1500s and is the oldest structure on the temple grounds. Chionji is also the site of the tomb of Izumi Shikibu, a famous female poet from the Heian Period (710-1185).
