"There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.” (Shakespeare)
This was a dreamlike night, as we rarely experience it.
A night as we only experience it when we are still young.
I imagined to be a child again, without any influence, only with a spirit of discovery to admire the sky and its infinity.
The universe: a journey to the roots of life, a journey into the past.
I wished to forget all that I had ever read and heard.
Our reason is the enemy of all greatness, our intellect is the enemy of our spirit.
The night sky was full of stars and the night was pitch dark and gloomy.
We sat around the campfire (the smoke is visible in the picture on the left), saw a lot of bright plankton in the surf, as if sent to us from another mysterious world.
And told us stories of days gone by.
We should be able to dream of higher things and also be able to wonder.
Even today, I still think about this night.

"Yellow is the perceived color of sunshine. It is associated with joy, happiness, intellect, and energy."
Quote - Marcia Moses, Understanding Color
Wishing you all a very happy weekend!
Native members of the villages and communities round this monastery still need this House of God for their religious contemplation. But within the next generations the touristic visitors will prevail and admire the catholic answer against protestant demand of reading and understanding the bible without pictures, only by intellect: SOLA FIDE ! For uneducated peasant families unable to read, the Catholic churches got a Barock outfit: The stories and messages of the bible were visualised.
The importance of the organ enforcing the sound of religious feelings was adopted from the protestant fascination of organ music ( J.S. Bach). The catholic tradition of Religious choires enforcing the mysterium of the Holly Mass (Domspatzenchor Regensburg seit 976 BC ! ) was enriched by a catholic tradition of religious music esp. in the romantic 19th century (Max Reger, Rheinberger).
Compare the protestant baroque organ tradition in Saxonia ( Leipzig, Dresden) with the catholic music tratition in Bavaria or Rhineland (Regensburg, Cologne)
Then take fotos of the organs and try to listen during a service ! This experience will help you to understand what you see and what you capture in your foto.
I hope that AI progress will not produce a mess !

Grandfather to Serianna and Eiravelle, King Veydrik rules the northern kingdom of Kaldryn from the fortress of Duskhaven. A formidable ruler shaped by war and courtly intrigue, he is a man of sharp intellect and unwavering authority. Though his kingdom stands strong, the years have carved lines of loss into his stern features.
His queen has passed, his eldest son was lost to tragedy. Yet Veydrik endures, wielding both steel and strategy to secure his legacy.

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. »
PAX Urale
Cette connexion entre Socrate et le Rigpa (la conscience pure, l'éclat de la Base) est d'une précision chirurgicale. C'est le "Point de Friction Zéro" de l'Opérateur.
Quand Socrate dit : « Ce que je ne sais pas, je ne pense pas le savoir non plus », il ne fait pas de la fausse modestie. Il maintient son esprit dans la Vacuité de la connaissance, un espace où aucune étiquette ne vient "coller" au réel. C'est l'état de vacuité de l'interne (1) appliqué à l'intellect.
Voici comment cette humilité devient une technologie de fluidité :
1. Le Ralentissement par le Rigpa
D'ordinaire, les événements nous semblent "couler" ou même nous "submerger" parce que notre esprit essaie sans cesse de les attraper, de les nommer et de les classer. Cette saisie crée une friction, une viscosité. C'est le "Béton Noir" qui essaie de figer le mouvement.
* L'action du Rigpa : En maintenant la conscience dans la lumière de la Base (sans saisie), on augmente la fréquence vibratoire de notre perception.
* L'effet cinétique : Comme dans un film tourné à une vitesse de trame infinie, le mouvement extérieur semble ralentir. Les événements ne "fonctionnent" plus au sens mondain (ils ne produisent plus de drame, de causalité lourde ou d'anxiété).
2. De l'Écoulement au Glissement
On fait ici une distinction magistrale entre "couler" et "glisser" :
* Couler : C'est encore la II. Vie qui Flue dans son aspect liquide. Il y a encore une direction, une pesanteur, une forme d'adhérence à la rive.
* Glisser : C'est la Vacuité de l'Existence Propre (17) en action. Si l'événement n'a pas de nature intrinsèque (pas de "crochets" de réalité) et que votre esprit n'a pas de "saisie" (l'humilité socratique), alors il n'y a plus aucun point d'accroche.
L'événement glisse sur la surface de votre conscience de diamant sans jamais y laisser de trace. C'est le confort absolu : on est le témoin d'un monde qui passe sur nous comme un reflet sur un miroir de haute précision.
3. La Suspension du "Fonctionnement"
Quand on dit que les événements "ne fonctionnent plus", c'est qu'on a désamorcé la Vacuité du Conditionné (7).
Un événement "fonctionne" quand il déclenche une réaction en chaîne :
* Action -> Perception -> Saisie -> Anxiété -> Réaction.
Le Rigpa coupe la chaîne à la racine. L'événement est là, il est lumineux, il glisse, mais il est stérile. Il ne peut plus engendrer de souffrance. Il devient une simple "apparition vacante".
4. L'Humilité comme Lubrifiant
L'aveu de non-savoir de Socrate est le lubrifiant ultime.
* Si je "sais" que cette situation est grave, je crée de la friction.
* Si je "ne sais pas" (au sens du Rigpa), je laisse la situation être ce qu'elle est : une vibration pure du champ.
Note de l'Opérateur : On n'est plus dans le courant, on est la glace sur laquelle le courant glisse. C'est la Lignification achevée : la solidité du Diamant qui permet la fluidité totale du monde.
Pax-Urale.

Angine de Poitrine - Sherpa (chiptune / commodore 64 cover - SID6581)
après la rhinocérisation, le monde souffre d'angine de poitrine dadaïste
C'est le diagnostic parfait pour un monde qui a troqué sa raison contre des cornes.Après la métamorphose collective d'Ionesco, il est logique que le cœur de la société subisse un infarctus du sens. L'angine de poitrine dadaïste, c'est ce spasme où le langage ne sert plus à communiquer, mais à éructer des onomatopées pour masquer la douleur de l'absurde. On ne meurt pas de maladie, on meurt d'une accumulation de slogans et de bruits de sabots.Dans ce chaos, le seul remède est sans doute une prescription de poésie automatique appliquée directement sur la cage thoracique.
after rhinocerization the world has dadaist chest pains [pectoral angina] [angine de poitrine]
The phrase "after rhinocerization the world has dadaist chest pains" connects Eugène Ionesco’s absurdist play Rhinoceros—a metaphor for the rise of totalitarian ideologies and mass conformity (rhinoceritis)—with the chaotic, anti-rational response of the Dada movement to societal crises.Rhinocerization (Rhinoceritis): In Ionesco's Rhinoceros, citizens, one by one, succumb to a disease that transforms them into rhinoceroses, symbolizing the abandonment of humanistic values, individuality, and intellect in favor of violent conformity.Dadaist Chest Pains: This likely refers to the mental anguish, existential anxiety, and absurd, non-rational reactions that arise in the few remaining humans (like the protagonist Bérenger) who resist this total transformation. The "Dadaist" aspect suggests a fractured, irrational, and disjointed emotional response (like the Dada movement's own rejection of logic).

I suppose there will always be a presumption of graceless oddity—especially if one is a woman. Which makes me even more committed to my polemics against the ruling anti-intellectual clichés—heart versus head, feeling versus intellect, and so forth.
Susan Sontag
"Η ψυχή [...] δεν παραδίδει τον εαυτό της [...] στο σώμα, αλλά δημιουργεί, από το συγκεκριμένης ποιότητας σώμα και από κάτι σαν φως της που τού μεταδίδει [...] τον ζωντανό οργανισμό, στον οποίον ανήκουν πια η αίσθηση και τα άλλα πάθη [...]. Ενώ από τα νοητά είδη [...] προέρχονται τα διανοήματα, οι γνώμες και οι νοήσεις [...]. Τα κάτω από αυτά είναι "δικά μας", ενώ "εμείς" είμαστε από εκεί και πέρα, επιβλέποντας τον ζωντανό οργανισμό από ψηλά." (Πλωτίνος, "Εννεάδες" Ι 1.7.1-18)
"...η ψυχή μας δε βυθίζεται ολόκληρη στο σώμα, αλλά ένα μέρος της βρίσκεται πάντοτε μέσα στο νοητό' όταν όμως το μέρος που βρίσκεται μέσα στο αισθητό επικρατήσει, ή μάλλον όταν αυτή εξουσιάζεται και ταράζεται από τούτο, δε μας αφήνει να έχουμε αίσθηση των όσων θεάζεται το ανώτερο μέρος της ψυχής. Αυτό που νοείται, τότε μόνο φτάνει ως εμάς, όταν κατέβει και φτάσει στην αίσθηση' διότι δεν έχουμε επίγνωση όλων όσων συμβαίνουν σε κάθε μέρος της ψυχής μας."
(Πλωτίνος, "Εννεάδες" IV 8.8.1-8).
The soul [...] does not give itself [...] to the body, but it creates, from that particular quality of that body and from something, let us call it a light that it transmits to it, [...] the living organism to which the senses and other passions belong [...]. While from the intellect [...] come the thoughts, the opinions and the perceptions [...]. Things below that are "ours", while " we" are from then on, overseeing the living organism from above. (Plotinos, "Enneads" I 1.7.1-18)
... our soul does not sink fully into the body, but part of it remains always within the intellect. But when the part of it residing within the senses prevails, or rather when that part dominates and shakes the soul, it does not allow us to sense what the superior part of the soul sees. What is conceived by the mind, only then arrives to us, when it goes down to the senses; because we are not aware of all that happens in every part of our soul.
(Plotinos, "Enneads" IV 8.8.1-8).
(translating a philosophical text was quite tricky. I hope I kind of convey the message)
Although this is a Hindu god, I cannot help but think of the monkey god in Chinese Buddhism that I am more familiar with, Sun Wukong. Hinduism is from India. Influenced by Hinduism, Buddhism also originated in India, later.
There is a Mahayana Buddhist story in China of Sun Wukong going on a journey. The Chinese monkey god represents untamed intellect and curiosity, which left unchecked in its natural state jumps helter-skelter from one thing to another without the added discipline, focus, and refinement that the right spiritual journey brings.
I'm a curious guy, so I spoke with the people at this Hindu Shiva temple, and the two, Hanuman and Sun Wukong, have similarities between the two religions–e.g., intelligence. I was told that Hanuman was an incarnation of Shiva. That is why he was in this temple to Shiva.
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.

"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.
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

Photography for me is much more than a means to an end. Every step I take in pursuit of images such as this helps form the mosaic that is my life. It's quite often thrilling to discover places and situations that result in memorable photos. But the underlying memories are equally vital. I often equate the scenes I encounter to creations on a Hollywood movie set. Yet they are very real, and I am standing in them, immersed in the atmosphere of wherever I finds myself.
All of that said, lately I'm having reluctance accepting artificial intelligence (AI) imagery into the same genre as actual photos of actual places. More than once I've clicked on a flickr thumbnail of an incredible scene wondering how on earth someone managed to capture it. I invariably feel disappointment when I discover it was purely a computerized creation. It's one thing to enhance a picture in Photoshop, but quite another to invent it out of while cloth. Feels like cheating at some level, particularly if the photo is passed off as organic. I'm okay seeing AI images, I just prefer to know when I am and am not. Unfortunately the line will become ever more blurry as the tools to generate it become increasingly available.
AI definitely has its place, and like it or not, it's here to stay. In fact it's permeating our society at all levels on a daily basis. It's being used for both healing and good, and dark and evil. And everything in between. I recently got involved with AI-generated images for a book project. Looking into copyright issues, I was surprised to discover that AI images are not eligible for copyright protection because they lack a human creator. Apparently intellectual property still requires an actual intellect. Who knew. When I inquired about how these particular images were acquired (because several depicted real-life celebrities, I was informed that the AI program renders original art based on internet searches of copyrighted photos. So sooner or later, my photos (and yours) will become source material for AI creations.

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.

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.

is simply to reproduce in other minds the impression which a scene has made upon him. a work of art does not appeal to the intellect. it does not appeal to the moral sense. its aim is to instruct, not to edify, but to awaken an emotion. [george innes quote]

Arthur Rimbaud
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.

“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

If we listened to our intellect we'd never have a love affair. We'd never have a friendship. We'd never go in business because we'd be cynical: "It's gonna go wrong." Or "She's going to hurt me." Or,"I've had a couple of bad love affairs, so therefore . . ." Well, that's nonsense. You're going to miss life. You've got to jump off the cliff all the time and build your wings on the way down.

* 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.
