Just a name?

Just a name?



You may say
that Windows Live Mail is just a name, part of the family ‘Windows Live
Messenger”, not meant to mean anything but you are being careless with
consequences if you name things irrationally. Windows Live Mail, Live Messenger
do not make sense.



Microsoft
seems to impose itself wanting others to join Live Messenger because every time
you start up you are asked to sign in and you cannot turn that irritant off.



WINDOWS
LIVE MESSENGER MAY SOUND IMPRESSIVE BUT IT MAKES NO SENSE BECAUSE IT IS NOT
LIVE. WINDOWS ONLINE MESSENGER WOULD BE CORRECT AND IT IS THE FALSE PERCEPTION
OF PEOPLE THAT ‘LIVE’ SOUNDS BETTER THAN ‘ONLINE’ WHEN THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE
BUT ONLINE IS APT WHILST ‘LIVE’ IS NOT.



YOU MAY
THINK IT IS UP TO YOUR WHIM AND FANCY WHAT YOU NAME SOMETHING BUT IF IT IS
INAPPROPRIATE OR BIZARRE AND YOU FIND IT ‘CUTE’ YOU ARE COURTING MAD
PERCEPTION.



Get a free Blackberry phone today:



This is an
advertisement by Celcom and it is false and therefore a lie. In order to get
the ‘free’ phone you must subscribe the highest plan paying more than $200 per
month subscription for at least two years and it is therefore not free as
stated.



Something
that is truly free or a gift has not strings attached and is seldom seen in
this world, when people in this world give gifts they expect something in
return.



You think
it is OK or understandable for Celcom to make such a statement but it is even
deadly for those responsible.



Name your son Hitler or Jesus?



Think again
if you think you can do as you wish, name your son Hitler or Jesus because if
he suffers from ridicule in his life you are responsible and there is deadly
karma for you.



YOU THINK
IT IS FUNNY CALLING YOUR SON OR DOG HITLER OR JESUS BUT SHOULD YOU CAUSE
SUFFERING BY THE NAME YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE.



THUS YOU
HAVE WRONG VIEW THAT IS THE WAY TO HELL OR THE ANIMAL WOMB THAT A NAME IS JUST
A NAME AND YOU NAME AS YOU PLEASE.



YOU CAN
NAME WITH PURPOSE OR SUBSTANCE EG WINDOWS ONLINE MAIL OR YOU CAN NAME FOR STYLE
BECAUSE IT SOUNDS IMPRESSIVE, WINDOWS LIVE MAIL.



No brainer:



It is
actually a no brainer that clicking the Word icon should display in a compact
vertical stack the names of opened files for which you can then rapidly choose
the file you want rather than the cumbersome mini pictures of all the opened
files in a messy long horizontal display such that one has to move the mouse a
lot to click the end files. It looks impressive but it is impracticable and
serves no purpose and uses more computer power to see pictures of opened files
yet this is the default mode, if you want the compact vertical stack you must
select the classic windows view which means you cannot have the desktop screen
picture of your choice, you can only have a blue screen. Why must this be so,
is Microsoft mad?



Banks
Bundled Bad Debt, Bet Against It and Won



By GRETCHEN MORGENSON and LOUISE STORY 6 minutes ago


Investigators are trying to determine whether banks like
Goldman Sachs intentionally sold their clients especially risky mortgage-linked
assets



This shows
how evil Goldman Sachs is, to purposely bundle bad debts to sell to
unsuspecting people is itself evil but to then make sure win bets that it will
go bad is evil, gaining a second time on your evil deed.



Objective not subjective pictograms inappropriate:



If you
think it is a matter of taste, some might prefer pictograms to file names in
displaying opened files, you understand falsely because it is objective,
universal, applies to everyone that a compact vertical stack of file names is
appropriate.



Two opened
Excel files may look very similar in pictogram so that someone may have
difficulty visually identifying which is which whereas it is unlikely if not
impossible you cannot identify a file with certainty by name. If you are
illiterate then pictograms may be superior to file names for you but then if
you are illiterate you will not be using a computer.



There are
many drawbacks of pictograms apart from files with similar appearances, it is
more cumbersome, occupies more space, uses more computer power and demands
greater mouse movements to operate and so it should be an option rather than
the default mode.



IT IS
FALSELY A MATTER OF TASTE SOMETHING IS BETTER THAN ANOTHER BUT IT CAN BE EXAMINED
AND OBJECTIVELY DETERMINED WHICH OF TWO OPTIONS IS SUPERIOR. BY DISMISSING
SOMETHING AS A MATTER OF TASTE YOU ARE SAYING NO ONE IS RIGHT AND NO ONE IS
WRONG, BOTH ARE RIGHT AND THAT ALWAYS A MATTER OF STYLE NOT SUBSTANCE. IN ANY
MATTER IT CAN BE EXAMINED AND FOUND WHAT IS RIGHT AND WRONG.



PICTOGRAMS
ARE FOR SHOW, LOOKS ATTRACTIVE AT LEAST TO PERVERTS) BUT THEY ARE COUNTER
PRODUCTIVE.



Telling others what is bad is good:



ROY KEANE has
told axed Manchester City boss Mark Hughes: "You're better off out of it."





If being
sacked was good or better off, Hughes would have walked before he is sacked and
so reflected his foolishness fellow manager Ray Keane creates karma by telling
others what is bad is good for them. Leave others to decide for themselves
whether something is good or bad. If he thinks it is bad and you tell him it is
good you are stirring conflict in him that he is wrong and you are right and
that is karma to you.



EMOTIONAL
PEOPLE HAVE A TENDENCY TO DENY AND WANT TO TURN DEFEAT INTO VICTORY, FALSELY
INSIST WHAT IS BAD IS GOOD. THE WISE PERSON WILL LEAVE OTHERS TO DECIDE FOR
THEMSELVES WHAT HAS HAPPENED IS GOOD OR BAD FOR THEM INSTEAD OF WADING IN TO
TELL THEM WHAT IS BAD IS GOOD.



 



Wireless keyboards & mice not reliable:



My Dell
computer came with wireless keyboard and mouse and after use, I found them
unreliable such that I swapped the wired keyboard and mouse of my old Dell.



The mouse
is heavy (with batteries) and if you marked a range of cells or a passage, it
can lose contact such that you must remark a few times to be successful.



The
keyboard has no light that tells you ‘Cap Lock’ is on.



WIRELESS
KEYBOARDS AND MICE ARE FOR SHOW, THEY ARE NOT SUPERIOR TO THE WIRED
COUNTERPARTS WHICH ARE CHEAPER LESS COMPLICATED AND RELIABLE. IF I HAD KNOWN IN
ADVANCE I WOULD HAVE CHOSEN THE WIRED VERSION ANYTIME. THERE MAY BE A CASE FOR
IT IF YOU HAVE A LAPTOP BUT FOR DESKTOPS, WIRED KEYBOARDS ARE SUPERIOR.



Thinking is false, evil, driven by force never reason:



If you
think that thinking is good, to be cultivated by everyone, God needs to think
like you or He thinks like you think, you may be right or deluded.



Thinking is
driven by greed (a proxy of force) never genuine reason, is addictive or conditioning
such that the person cannot help thinking, cannot stop thinking, is evil,
creates stress, restlessness and distraction (a thinking person cannot focus
completely on what he is doing, if you think you cannot focus fully on your
driving).



NO ONE WHO IS
EMOTIONAL AND STYLISH IS A MASTER OF HIS THINKING BUT HE IS A SLAVE WHO CANNOT
HELP THINKING THAT CAN BECOME TORMENTING AT TIMES AND IT IS CONTROLLED AGONY TO
CONSTANTLY THINK COMPARED TO SOMEONE WHO IS NOT GREEDY TO THINK, WHO PERCEIVES
THINKING IS EVIL AND ONLY THINKS MINIMALLY AND THENCE SWITCHES OFF.



If you saw
something, you do not need to think because seeing you know, so what is there
to think? Even if there are many things that you did not see and therefore do
not know, if you have no desire or greed to know what you did not see, you do
not need to think.



Many of the
things that people did not see that they desire to know and therefore need to
think are unwholesome, unnecessary (needed only to satisfy their curiosity,
desires or gossipy nature) and so they indulge in thinking in order to
indirectly know what they did not see out of idle curiosity or urge to
speculate or be sensational. Not only is such curiosity driven thinking
suffering never the pleasure it is supposed to be, it is conditioning such that
in time the person cannot help thinking, he is driven by mental force, greed or
curiosity to think about this and that and go over them again and again until
it becomes tormenting.



EVEN IF
THERE ARE MANY THINGS YOU DID NOT SEE AND THEREFORE DID NOT KNOW, IF YOU ARE
NOT GREEDY OR GOSSIPY, YOU DO NOT NEED TO THINK TO FIND OUT OR SPECULATE AND
YOU DO SO OUT OF IDLE CURIOSITY OR EVIL INTENT AND THAT IS DRIVEN BY FORCE
NEVER REASON. SUCH THINKING IS NOT ONLY SUFFERING, IT IS ADDICTIVE AND THE
PERSON CANNOT HELP IT, DOES NOT CARE EVEN WHEN IT CAN BE TORMENTING AT TIMES.



It is
possible for a person to train to stop thinking at will, the Buddha said
thinking ceases in the second elevated state of the mind and a person who can
stop thinking at will not only has a blissful existence here compared to the
person who cannot stop thinking, he is headed for two eternities in heaven.



YOU CANNOT
STOP THINKING, DO NOT BELIEVE IT IS POSSIBLE FOR ANYONE TO FULLY CONSCIOUS NOT
THINK AT ALL BUT YOU MAY BE DELUDED, THINK WHAT IS POSSIBLE IS IMPOSSIBLE AND
YOUR CEASELESS RESTLESS THINKING WILL DRIVE YOU BERSERK AND TWO ETERNITIES IN
HEAVENLY EXISTENCE IS OUT OF QUESTION FOR YOU.



IF YOU
THINK THINKING IS BORN OF REASON, NATURAL, UNAVOIDABLE, GOOD, YOU MAY BE RIGHT
OR HAVE WRONG VIEW THAT IS THE WAY TO HELL OR THE ANIMAL WOMB BECAUSE THE
REALITY MAY BE THINKING IS DRIVEN BY FORCE (GREED FOR GAINS, IDLE CURIOSITY),
IS ALWAYS SUFFERING COMPARED WITH NOT THINKING, THINKING IS UNNATURAL, NOT TO
THINK IS NATURAL AND POSSIBLE AND IS THE WAY TO HEAVENLY BLISS.



NOT ONLY IS
FULLY CONSCIOUS NO THINKING POSSIBLE, IT IS POSSIBLE FOR A BEING TO TRAIN SUCH
THAT HE NEITHER LIKES NOR DISLIKES, HIS MENTAL FORCE IS NOT STIRRED
ATTRACTIVELY OR REPULSIVELY BY ANYTHING HAPPENING AND THAT ACCORDS HIM FOUR
EONS IN HEAVENLY EXISTENCE, IT IS FURTHER POSSIBLE TO TRAIN HIS MIND SUCH THAT
HE EXPERIENCES NEITHER PAIN NOR PLEASURE (ONLY FORCE CAN GIVE PLEASURE,
PLEASURE IS A PRODUCT OR MILD FORCE) AND THAT ACCORDS HIM 500 ETERNITIES IN
HEAVENLY EXISTENCE.



No point telling others:



Then,
the Blessed One on that occasion exclaimed:



For
the monk who has left all kamma behind,

shaking off the dust of the past, steady, without longing, Such*:

there's no point in telling anyone else.



The person
who has achieved for himself the bliss and self assurance of a conscious non
thinking, he sees and knows the state and there is no point telling others. For
those who have not achieved no thinking, he does not realize what he is missing
(bliss here and even two eons in heaven) nor does he care and no matter how
many times you tell him, he has not tasted and does not know the ‘no thinking’
state.



Three types of thinking:



There
are at least three distinct types of thinking and they are:



a) To work out what you did not see
and know aka to speculate or reason out indirectly what you did not see because
you desire or are greedy to know.



b) To plan for what to say or do, to
scheme. In order to be a robot you must device plans of what to say or do in
certain situations that you then keep memorizing and rehashing until they
become very slick. All evil comes from planning that requires thinking. To rob
or murder or make money starting a business you need to plan by thinking and
then carry out that plan in which you are a robot of that plan.



c) Often thinking is just
uncontrollable repeated or rehashed senseless idle talking to self, one
mentally talks about this and that, jokes about this and that to oneself and
this is controlled insanity.



Whence the need to think?



Thus if you do not desire to know
what you did not see or know, seldom is it essential to know by thinking what
you did not see and know, you do not wish to scheme greedily to steal, murder
or make money, you shun idle mental chatter, do not find mental chatter ‘cute’,
do not worship intellectual prowess or are not egoistic about your intellectual
prowess, whence is there need to think?



IS
NOT WHAT I SAY ABOUT THINKING THAT THERE ARE THREE DIFFERENT TYPES, TO REASON
OUT INDIRECTLY WHAT YOU DID NOT SEE OR KNOW, TO SCHEME FOR UNRIGHTEOUS GAINS,
TO MENTALLY IDLE CHATTER WITH YOURSELF THE TRUTH ABOUT THE NATURE OF THINKING?
HOW MANY PHILOSOPHERS LET ALONE ORDINARY PEOPLE HAVE SAID THAT? IF YOU ARE
THINKING ALL THE TIME AND YOU DO NOT KNOW THE NATURE OF YOUR THINKING, AREN’T
YOU A FOOL WHO DOES NOT KNOW WHAT HE IS DOING? IS WHAT I SAY USELESS OR IS IT
INSIGHTFUL, POINTS THE WAY OUT OF SUFFERING?



And how do they work out what they did not see?



And
how do people think, work out by thinking what they did not see and know?



Instead
of gathering all the relevant strands of the situation and fitting them
together, they take snapshots often hastily and then depend on assumptions,
rehashing of past conclusions to explain the situation.



NOT
ONLY DO PEOPLE UNRIGHTEOUSLY GREEDILY KNOW WHAT THEY DID NOT SEE, BUT THEY
THINK BY RECALLING ASSUMPTIONS, BY KNEE JERK REHASHING PAST ASSUMPTIONS OF WHAT
THEY DID NOT SEE CAN BE, NOT BY PIECING TOGETHER THE DIFFERENT STRANDS OF THE
CURRENT SITUATION TO SEE WHAT STORY THEY TELL.



PM:
M’sia committed to upholding true values of all religions
Latest News



Malaysia is strongly committed to upholding the true values of all
religions, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said Friday.



Emotional
people reading the statement do not realize it is absurd or nonsense or false.



How
can anyone who does not speak and practice the truth know the true values of
religion so that they can be upheld? Only the person who speaks and practices
the truth know the truth and can uphold the true values of all religions. If
you tell lies or do not do what is true, it is impossible for you to uphold the
true values of religion and therefore it is a false or hollow promise.



A
person who speaks and does the truth does not need any commitment to uphold the
true values of religion, it is automatic, part of his practice of truth.



You
need force to commit and it is an enforced blind not reasoned or understanding
practice.



THERE
IS NO NEED TO COMMIT ONESELF TO TRUTH, TO USE FORCE TO PRACTICE TRUTH BECAUSE
IT IS ENFORCED NOT TRUE. UNLESS YOU PRACTICE TRUTH IN SPEECH AND ACTIONS, YOU
CANNOT UPHOLD TRUTH IN ALL RELIGIONS. HOW CAN A PERSON WHO IS NOT COMMITTED TO
TRUTH IN HIS OWN LIFE BE COMMITTED TO TRUTH IN ALL RELIGIONS? IF YOU PRACTICE
TRUTH IN YOUR LIFE THEN UPHOLDING TRUTH IN ALL RELIGIONS IS A NATURAL EXTENSION
AND IT IS SILLY TALKING ABOUT IT.



What is so special about religion that its truth is upheld but not
elsewhere?



If
you don’t uphold the truth in ISA, in political and business matters it is
impossible you can truly uphold the truth in all religions.



IF
YOU DON’T UPHOLD TRUTH IN TREATING OPPOSITION POLITICIANS (SODOMY CHARGES
AGAINST ANWAR, IGNORING GLARING ACCUSATION OF COVERUP IN ALTANTURYA’S MURDER)
OR IN USING ISA ON OPPONENTS IT IS IMPOSSIBLE IT IS TRUE YOU ARE COMMITTED TO
UPHOLDING RELIGIOUS TRUTHS EXCEPT THAT IT IS DELUSIONAL AND HYPOCRITICAL.



COMMITMENT
TO TRUTH IS ALL OR NONE, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR SOMEONE TO BE TRULY COMMITTED TO
TRUTH IN RELIGION BUT NOT IN TREATMENT OF POLITICAL OPPONENTS EXCEPT THAT IT IS
FOR SHOW.



Can a president take a holiday?



This
question posed at a major US news site is silly but it is to exaggerate as if
the president’s job is so great it is impossible to take a holiday.



Often
the president is sleeping on the job, not just Bush but even Clinton was
indulging in backroom dalliances with Lewinsky rather than managing affairs of
the state and it may be handlers that may be running the show telling
presidents especially Bush to do and say.



IF
IT IS NO BIG DEAL BEING PRESIDENT, YOU CAN PUT AN IDIOT THERE BUT HAVE HANDLERS
TO TELL HIM WHAT TO SAY OR DO AND OFTEN THEY ARE SLEEPING ON THE JOB, YOU ARE A
FOOL TO POSE THE QUESTION AND IT REFLECTS HUMANITY’S FOLLY THAT A MAJOR NEWS
SITE DEEM IT FIT TO PUBLISH THE ARTICLE.



They think to tend their jukeboxes and program:



There
are two further important reasons people think.



One
is that they think to decide which of the many memorized tracks for speech and
action to activate and in what sequences. Like a disc jockey, faced with
changing situations in their daily routines, they have to decide which rote
action to take eg to joke or act nasty in face of someone’s provocation.



The
second reason they think is not to understand what is said to them but to
program it. It is the force patterns in what is said to robotic people that
programs them and often what is said to them does not click either because they
perceived or retrieved the wrong ‘understanding’ from their mental jukebox or
they cannot concentrate. In this situation they have to think, to repeat to
themselves laboriously the message they just heard so that it will sink in or
they are programmed to do what it says. Eg even a simple message like ‘take
this there’ may draw a blank in someone who is in a daze and he will have to
think to ‘understand’ (program) what it means so that he can carry it out.



Thus
people think because: a) They want to work out what they did not see and know
b) They think to scheme or plan or fabricate what to say or do, what and how to
deceive, steal, charm, harm others etc c) They think to decide which amongst
their repertoire of recorded speech and actions to activate for an occasion d)
They think to program (not understand) what is said to them that they have
difficulty receiving either because it did not click or their concentration is
scattered e) They think randomly helplessly because thoughts keep cropping up
in their minds automatically as a result of ceaselessly willing themselves.
They indulge in mental conversations with themselves and others often over
trivial silly matters and this is the harbinger to future insanity.



IT
MAY BE THE TRUTH THAT THINKING IS AN UNSAVOURY LOWER ACTIVITY AND THERE ARE
HIGHER BEINGS WHO DO NOT NEED TO THINK AND DO NOT THINK AND SO IF YOU THINK AND
EXALT YOUR THINKING YOU ARE DELUDED.



THE
MORE YOU THINK THE LESS YOU SEE (BECAUSE THINKING DISTRACTS) AND THE MORE YOU
NEED TO THINK TO INDIRECTLY INFER WHAT YOU DID NOT SEE. THE LESS YOU THINK THE
MORE YOU SEE AND LESS YOU NEED TO THINK UNTIL YOU STOP ALL THINKING AND THAT IS
A RELEASE FROM THE PRISON OF THINKING NOT A DEPRIVATION.



Tkl



Jesus asks you to judge for yourself, not blind faith:



Quote: He
also said to the multitudes, "When you see a cloud rising in the west, you
say at once, 'A shower is coming'; and so it happens. And when you see the
south wind blowing, you say, 'There will be scorching heat'; and it happens.
You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of earth and sky; but
why do you not know how to interpret the present time?



"And why do you not judge
for yourselves what is right
? As you go with your accuser before the
magistrate, make an effort to settle with him on the way, lest he drag you to
the judge, and the judge hand you over to the officer, and the officer put you
in prison. I tell you, you will never get out till you have paid the very last
copper."



Jesus
did not demand blind faith but he asked you to judge for yourself what is right
and wrong.



Hence
what the Buddha said, what I say can be judged as right or wrong. If you judge
what I say or the Buddha said is wrong and it turns out right and there is no
other truth apart from what is said then you have wrong view that the Buddha
said is the way to hell or the animal womb.



THERE
ARE A LOT OF CHRISTIANS WHO HAVE A FALSE PERCEPTION OF WHAT CHRISTIANITY IS
ABOUT INDOCTRINATED INTO THEM THAT THEY HOLD (WITH TENACIOUS FORCE)
DOGMATICALLY AND THEY REJECT ANYTHING THAT DOES NOT CONCUR WITH THAT DOGMA.



Thinking for pleasure, fantasy:



Another
cause for people to think is for ‘fun’ or pleasure, to fantasize. People
indulge in various fantasies like they are superman flying here and there, they
are in the company of this gorgeous girl and she is madly in love with him. All
these are fruitless thinking for pleasure or the mild force stirred is
experienced as pleasure by their minds.



You
may think that without indulging in fantasies what pleasures or meaning can
there be in life but you may be deluded, fantasies are stressful fabrications,
dangerous make beliefs that are false and conditions the mind to accept what is
false, fantasy is true leading to insanity.



All activities of the mind can be stopped:



Thinking
is an activity of the mind just like consciousness, speech and actions and like
all activities it can be put to a stop by those who are skilful. Emotional
stylish people are kidding themselves if they think they are skilful, masters
of themselves and they can stop thinking at will because they cannot. The
reason they cannot is because there is added unnecessary force in their
thinking in the form of forceful prolonging of syllables, changes of speed and
strength that has momentum that is hard to stop and further their thinking is
ALWAYS driven by emotions never guided by true reason and whatever is driven by
emotion that is blind and has momentum is hard to stop.



THINKING
IS JUST AN ACTIVITY OF THE MIND AND LIKE ALL ACTIVITIES INCLUDING CONSCIOUSNESS
IT CAN BE PUT TO A STOP, AS TAUGHT BY THE BUDDHA AND NO ONE ELSE. HOWEVER
EMOTIONAL STYLISH PEOPLE ARE KIDDING THEMSELVES IF THEY THINK THEY CAN STOP
THINKING AT WILL, THEY HAVE EXPERIENCED THE INCOMPARABLE RELEASE FROM SUFFERING
OF FULLY CONSCIOUSE GO ABOUT DAILY LIFE NOT THINKING. RATHER THAN DUMB OR
INFERIOR, NON THINKING MEANS THE PERSON IS FULLY PRESENT IN HIS CURRENT SITUATION,
HE SEES MUCH MORE AND NEEDS TO THINK MUCH LESS.



THE
REASONS WHY PEOPLE CANNOT STOP THINKING ARE BECAUSE THERE IS STYLE OR ADDED
TOTALLY UNNECESSARY FOR SHOW FORCE PROLONGING, CHANGING SPEED AND STRENGTH IN
THEIR THINKING THAT HAS MOMENTUM THAT TENDS TO KEEP GOING AND THEIR THINKING IS
NOT CALM BUT DRIVEN BY EMOTIONS THAT CAN RISE TO INTENSE LEVELS THAT KEEP
THINKING CEASELESS AND RESTLESS.



YOU
THINK THINKING CANNOT BE STOPPED BUT EVEN CONSCIOUSNESS CAN BE STOPPED, AS
TAUGHT BY THE BUDDHA (AND NO ONE ELSE).



Thinking is evil and stressful:



Thinking
is evil and stressful compared with (fully conscious) absence of thinking.



The
most wholesome purpose of thinking is to work out by reasoning what you did not
see and know and no matter how impeccable your logic, it is still indirect (you
did not see it) and vulnerable to error. A person who is not desirous, not
greedy to know what he did not see does not need to think.



The
other major purposes of thinking are clearly evil eg think to decide what to
render by counterfeit from one’s mental jukebox, to scheme or plan what to say
or do to manipulate others, steal, injure or kill, to fantasize (if it is true
it is not call fantasy and so all fantasies are dangerous dallying with make
belief), to program themselves (people do not understand what is said to them,
they sometimes have to think to program themselves with what others said,
something said to them may not click or click wrong and they think to click
‘correctly’ or wrongly what is said to them), they think to talk to themselves
or mentally talk to others often frivolously for emotional reasons or they
cannot help it.



ALL
THE PURPOSES FOR THINKING CAN BE EXAMINED AND FOUND TO BE SINFUL AND STRESSFUL.
THE MOST WHOLESOME REASON FOR THINKING IS TO WORK OUT WHAT HAPPENED THAT YOU
DID NOT SEE AND EVEN THIS IF CORRECT IS STILL INDIRECT AND CONJECTURE BECAUSE
YOU DID NOT SEE IT BUT THOUGHT IT OUT.



THUS
THINKING IS ALWAYS EVIL, BAD, NEVER TO BE EXALTED AND WHOEVER EXALTS IN
INTELLECT THINKING IT IS MARVELLOUS, ENCOURAGES OTHERS TO THINK IS DELUDED AND
UNKNOWINGLY BESTOWING KARMA NOT MERIT.



You truly understand what you hear?



If
a person truly understands what he hears he must immediately see or know the
nature of what is said as true, false or meaningless (whatever is force is
meaningless). Even regarding very simple things said to them, they have to
think about it and even after much thinking they are not quite sure as to
whether what they heard is true, false or meaningless and often they get it
wrong, they hear what is false is true or meaningful.



If
you admit that you sometimes have to think before you understand what others
say it means that understanding of what is said is not direct but via thinking,
you need to subject what you hear to thought processes in order to ‘understand’
it. This ‘understanding’ may be deceptive, you are programmed by it or you
program yourself to what is said rather than truly understood what is said
otherwise you will see exactly what is said to you as false, motivated, the
person did not say what he meant.



Whenever
something is said to emotional people, they actually respond to the force
changes accompanying more than the substance of what is said, they compare what
is said to the libraries of explanations in their minds and when they find a
suitable explanation they think they understood. Sometimes this understanding
they found in the mind is far from the truth or what the other person intended.
If there are no recorded understandings in their minds, they are stumped,
‘cannot understand’ what is said to them and they have to think and think as to
what is said might mean by fabricating their own understanding or consulting
other external sources for an understanding that they can then memorize and
once they have memorized that new understanding and can reliably recall that
understanding in the future, they satisfy themselves they ‘understood’ when the
truth is that they have been successful programmed in this new rehashable
‘understanding’, they never truly understand or see exactly the nature of what
is said to them.



Often
they draw a blank or misunderstand simple things said to them either because
they are distracted or there is a temporary mental block between their mental
jukebox and their mental RAM memory or they absentmindedly retrieved the
incorrect ‘understanding’.



IT
MAY BE TRUE PEOPLE TRULY UNDERSTAND WHAT IS SAID TO THEM OR IT MAY BE TRUE THEY
NEVER TRULY UNDERSTAND WHAT IS SAID, THEY HAVE TO THINK BEFORE THEY
‘UNDERSTAND’ AND THAT INVOLVES SUCCESSFULLY RECEIVING WHAT IS SAID TO THEM,
LOOKING UP THEIR MENTAL JUKEBOX FOR THE UNDERSTANDING THEY THINK IS CORRECT AND
APPLYING THAT REHASHED UNDERSTANDING.



 



Obama says disappointment over Copenhagen is valid



"At least we kind of held ground"



US president Barack Obama says people are justified in being
disappointed by the outcome of the Copenhagen summit on climate change.



If
you understand truly what Obama said you must understand it is hypocritical and
trying to absolve himself from blame for his actions.



Did
he say at the conference what was the right thing for him and the US to do and
did he attack himself and the US for not taking the actions?



If
he did not and now he speaks contritely it is hypocrisy and trying to paint a
picture of himself more wholesome that it is in truth.



WHY
DID OBAMA NOT STATE THE RIGHT THING FOR THE US TO DO IN COPENHAGEN AND ATTACK
HIMSELF FOR NOT TAKING THEM? IF HE DID NOT AND NOW HE ACTS CONTRITELY IT IS ALL
FOR PUBLIC CONSUMPTION.



IF
WHAT I SAY ABOVE IS TRUE THEN WHATEVER UNDERSTANDING THAT DIFFERS IS FALSE AND
SO IF YOU TRULY UNDERSTOOD WHAT HAPPENED HOW COME YOU DID NOT UNDERSTAND THUS?



BECAUSE
PEOPLE DO NOT UNDERSTAND TRULY THEY CAN BE CONNED BY OTHERS AND BEING CONNED
YOU CAN EVEN LOSE YOUR LIFE



Why
America is great and Malaysia is shit



News image



 In
Malaysia, the focus of the education system is on the glory of the past, Malays
as the Lords of the Land, Malay Supremacy and Apartheid. In America it is ...



This
is a deluded statement. Using his language, one seeing the truth must say
Malaysia is shit but America too is shit, only a different kind of shit. If you
think Malaysia is shit and America is food, you understand wrongly.



MACC
mulls 'independent' director proposal



The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission
(MACC) is mulling over the possibility of appointing an “independent” legal and
prosecution director to restore public confidence in the commission. The
proposed independent representative would decide on what cases should be
legally pursued.



Independent
director is a false for show reply to MACC misdeeds. You can have as many
independent directors as you like but if the MACC is corrupt or obeys its
political masters, these directors can be sidestepped. If the current directors
are scrupulous, are held accountable for their actions, whence the need for
independent director?



Independent
director is an excuse for continuing the same. If you think it is the right
answer to the problem you may have true perception or you have false perception
and thus understanding that is the way to certain future insanity.



What kind of logic is this?



If
you are mulling independent directors, you are tacitly admitting current
directors are partial. There is no place for partisan directors of MACC and so
they should all be sacked. What is the use of independent directors when
partisan directors remain? Who employs the MACC staff, the government or
political parties?



Thus
anyone who thinks maybe independent directors can work is gullible, a fool, can
be conned by others.



No need to be cynical or enthusiastic:



When
people read about the proposal to appoint independent MACC directors, depending
on the political affiliations, they may react cynical or be enthusiastic about
it and they may think they understand when they don’t.



When
you are cynical it means you scoff or you react repulsively with force to the
proposal and that is blind not based on true understanding. When you are
enthusiastic it means your mental force is stirred attractively by the proposal
to appoint independent directors and that is using blind force to understand.



THERE
IS NO NEED TO BE CYNICAL OR ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT THE PROPOSAL TO APPOINT
INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS, IT IS USING BLIND FORCE TO UNDERSTAND AND RESPOND TO A
SITUATION, WHAT IS IMPORTANT IS THAT YOU SEE THAT IT IS THE WRONG ANSWER TO THE
PROBLEM OF LACK OF ACCOUNTABILITY, IT WILL NEVER WORK, IT IS FOR PUBLIC
CONSUMPTION ONLY.



PEOPLE
REACT WITH CYNICISM TO THIS PROPOSAL AND THEY THINK THEY UNDERSTAND THE MATTER
WHEN THEY DON’T.



Mark Lynas Blame China, not the US, for
Copenhagen



This
is the kamma incurring speech of a foolish man.



Did
the US undertake meaningful independent actions to curtail global warming?



If
the US did nothing, it is convenient to blame China for your failure to act.



Just
because China refuse to act does not mean the US cannot on its own initiative
take responsible actions to address global warming. If the US did not and
refuse to take actions because China refused, it is just as much to blame as
China and so to say blame China not US is false, with karma due.



Transcultural
musings on Christmas eve



A
REPUBLIC OF VIRTUE





Monday, 28 December 2009









How do we evolve - from man to metaphysical beings? How do we
evolve - as the Malays would say - from manusia to insan to insanul Kamil? So
that the larger Inner world harmonises with the smaller one Outside? Happy
transcultural holidays. May we next, visualise peace on Earth. 




If
you are speaking of musings then you should understand exactly what it is and
whether it is good or bad. It is obvious he thinks it is wonderful or to be admired
that he speaks of his musings when the opposite is the case, it is dallying
with falsity, addicting one to wandering thoughts that is suffering, conditions
one to thinking that means two eternity in heaven is out of the question if the
Buddha is correct.



If
a train of thought is essential, it is not called musings but musings are
random, wandering indistinctly connected thoughts about a single or few
subjects. It is never guided by genuine reason but driven by emotion or
sentiment, speculating and entertaining possibilities or what might be.



Rather
than a pleasure or a higher function of mind, it is suffering compared to a
total absence of thought when there is nothing that requires consideration, it
is addictive such that the person becomes increasingly prone to muse that is
the path to suffering not release from suffering. If you have no self identity
as the Buddha taught and you have abandoned everything, what is there to muse
or ruminate? Musing is also not letting your yes be yes only but to prolong and
drag and beat around the bush.



EXACTLY
WHAT A PERSON DOES WHEN HE IS MUSING CAN BE KNOWN. IF IT IS RAMBLING, WANDERING
WITH ATTENDENT EMOTION THEN IT IS THE RECIPE FOR FUTURE SUFFERING. NOWADAYS I
DO NOT MUSE. IF YOU IMMEDIATELY SEE THE NATURE OF SOMETHING WHAT IS THERE TO
MUSE? IT IS BECAUSE YOU CANNOT SEE THAT YOU MUSE AND NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU
MUSE IT IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR DIRECT SEEING.



Evolution may be a delusion:



Quote:
How do we evolve - from man to metaphysical beings? How do we
evolve - as the Malays would say - from manusia to insan to insanul Kamil?



He
is presuming there is an evolution from man to metaphysical being.



Suppose
what the Buddha taught is true that as a result of their bad deeds the vast
majority of humans will be reborn as animals, would that constitute negative
evolution for them? At the close of the Age, the vast majority of people are
headed for another eternity of existence as animals building up a pile of
skeleton as high as a mountain each.



Does
this sound like evolution or meaningless endless recycling of the same old
things for beings who are deluded and find their lives here so meaningful and
evolving when it is endless rehashing, not only is whatever they say and do is
rehashed, they are subject to the same old routines day in and out.



TO
POSE THE QUESTION ‘HOW DO WE EVOLVE’ MAY BE A DELUSION IF THIS WORLD HAS
UNDERGONE COUNTLESS ETERNAL CYCLES OF CREATING AND DISSOLUTION WITH THE SAME
OLD EARTH REAPPEARING MORE OR LESS THE SAME IN SUBSEQUENT AGES. IN THE NEXT AGE
THERE WILL BE ANOTHER INDIA EXCEPT WHERE ONCE WAS A MAGNIFICIENT CITY THERE IS
NOW A MAGNIFICENT SALA FOREST. DO YOU CALL THIS EVOLUTION OR RECYCLING THE SAME
FOR BEINGS WHO ENJOY REHASHING?



Apple shares hit new high on tablet excitement:



What
does this statement, if true, means?



It
means that their excitement stirred, people are driven to buy Apple shares
causing it to hit a new high. Thus the purchase of Apple shares is not guided
by true understanding but driven by stirred mental force that is blind and not the
right tool to use in deciding whether to purchase a share.



WHATEVER
THE OCCASION, IT IS ALWAYS DANGEROUS TO BASE ONE’S DECISIONS ON STIRRED MENTAL
FORCE (LIKE, DISLIKE, AGITATION, SADNESS, HURT) THAN TRUE UNDERSTANDING OF A
SITUATION. YOU MAY ESCAPE GRIEF EVEN DEATH ON SOME OCCASIONS OR EVEN GAIN
HANDSOMELY FROM SUCH FORCE DRIVEN DECISION BUT IT IS ESSENTIALLY A BLIND GAMBLE
THAT INEVITABLY WILL LEAD TO DISASTER ONE DAY.



Is going around in circles for countless eternities evolution?



If
all beings including insects and worms have been going around in circles
revolving around greed, hate and delusion, would that constitute evolution or
makes evolution a delusion?



If
you understood what the Buddha said below, you know that if reality is as
described by him, then evolution is a lot of nonsense, delusional. Beings (not
just humans) are like the dog tied to a pole (and that is always suffering)
rather than free to roam and he keeps moving foolishly around that pole. Is
this evolution?



Gaddula
Sutta: The Leash (1)



"Monks,
from an inconstruable beginning comes transmigration. A beginning point is not
evident, although beings hindered by ignorance and fettered by craving are
transmigrating & wandering on.



"There
comes a time when the great ocean evaporates & does not exist. But for
beings -- as long as they are hindered by ignorance, fettered by craving,
transmigrating & wandering on -- I don't say there is an end of suffering
& stress.



"There
comes a time when the great earth is consumed with flame & does not exist.
But for beings -- as long as they are hindered by ignorance, fettered by
craving, transmigrating & wandering on -- I don't say there is an end of
suffering & stress.



"Just as a dog, tied by a leash to a post, keeps running
around that post
; in the same way, an uninstructed person, not
well-versed in their Dhamma; has no regard for people of integrity, -- assumes
form to be the self, or the self as possessing form.



"He
assumes feeling to be the self...



"
perception to be the self...



"
(mental) fabrications to be the self...



"
consciousness to be the self, or the self as possessing consciousness.



"He
keeps running around that very form...that very feeling... perception...
fabrications... consciousness. He is not set loose from form, feeling... perception...
fabrications... consciousness. He is not set loose from birth, aging, &
death; from sorrows, lamentations, & despairs.



Evolution
posits that the being is unimportant or his nature or the meaning of life
beside the point, it is the evolution of life first from single cells to
multi-cellular organisms to dinosaurs to warm blooded mammals to the pinnacle,
humans. You think there is ample scientific evidence to support this theory,
but this may be a fairytale, delusional. Evolution is about style or show than
substance because beneath the progress of forms eg from dinosaurs to humans,
the same murderous hate, greed and delusions that drives dinosaurs drive humans
who are actually the same beings who inhabited the previous dinosaur forms.



IN
APPEARANCE OR SUPERFICIALLY, THERE IS EVOLUTION OF LIFE ON EARTH FROM SINGLE
CELLS TO NOW THE HUMAN FORM WITH ‘SOPHISTICATED’ INTELLECT BUT ALL THIS MAY BE
A DECEPTION, BECAUSE BENEATH IT ALL, WHETHER SINGLE CELL OR HUMAN BEINGS, IT IS
FORCE AND DRIVE, FUNDAMENTALLY GREED, HATE AND DELUSION THAT PROPELS BEINGS
WHETHER THEY ARE SINGLE CELLED OR ‘SOPHISTICATED’ HUMANS.



YOU
THINK THERE IS PROGRESS IN CIVILITY WITH HUMANS, BUT BENEATH THE FACADE OF
CIVILITY HUMANS (BANKERS, POLITICIANS, EVEN SCIENTISTS) ARE JUST AS CUT THROAT
AND RUTHLESS AS DINOSAURS.



The truth is just the opposite of evolution:



To
scientists and evolution, the meaning of life and the individual being is
unimportant or nonexistent, ‘life just exists’, what is important is the
evolution or progress or advance of life in increasing sophistication and
intelligence from single cell to humans ‘in all his intellectual glory’.



THE
OPPOSITE MAY BE OR IS TRUE, THE EVOLUTION OF LIFE OR LIFE FORMS IS UNIMPORTANT,
IT IS THE BEINGS THAT INHABIT THESE LIFE FORMS THAT IS IMPORTANT AND FOR THE
VAST MAJORITY OF BEINGS THAT INHABIT THESE CHANGING LIFE FORMS, THEY HAVE,
ACCORDING TO THE BUDDHA, LIVED IN VAIN, WHATEVER CHANGES OR PROGRESS IN THEM IS
GLACIAL EVEN NONEXISTENT. THE BUDDHA SAID THAT YOU HAVE ALREADY SHED YOUR OWN BLOOD
GREATER THAN THE FOUR GREAT OCEANS AND YET THE VAST MAJORITY ARE HEADED FOR
ANOTHER ETERNITY (IF NOT MORE) OF WEEPING AND GNASHING THEIR TEETH, SO WHAT
KIND OF EVOLUTION IS THIS IF NOT GLACIAL OR NONEXISTENT?



Bus driver has karma for deaths:



To
ordinary people and the authorities, the bus driver is innocent because he
caused the accident through sleepiness but divinely he has karma because of his
poor judgment.



He
acknowledged he felt sleep before dozing off and a responsible person with good
judgment will deem it wise to slow down and even stop for a rest but showing
poor judgment and irresponsibility (for lives entrusted to him) he kept going
risking death and injury to himself and others and there will be karma or
repayment for that.



The
Buddha said you must be skilful in life to avoid debts and this driver is far
from skilful, he should poor judgment that he could keep going and he acted
irresponsibly with the lives under his care.



As
the Buddha said, ordinary people have suffering as vast as an ocean in the
future.



No more drowsiness driving nowadays:



I
used to suffer from drowsiness driving long distance in the past sometimes even
before I have gone very far.



A
week or so ago, I drove nonstop from KL to JB using country roads from 8 am to
3 pm without eating or drinking on the way and arrived without even a moment’s
drowsiness, in the same way I left JB at 12 noon and arrived in KL at 8 pm
without battling drowsiness.



I
have made similar long distance trips recently and I don’t recall experiencing drowsiness.



The
reasons may be I sleep well nowadays and I am concentrated, without emotion or
distracting thoughts when I drive.



AS
PEOPLE GROW OLD THEIR SUFFERING INCREASES BUT AS I GROW OLD MY CONCENTRATION OR
ALERTNESS IMPROVES, MY MENTAL SUFFERING DIMINISHES.



The
hardest word



Politicians, actors, sportsmen - a year in apologies



“Sorry”
is perceived and glibly touted as the hardest word to say but it is nonsense,
false.



If
anything, “forgive me” is the hardest word. Many say glibly ‘sorry’ without
meaning it, by rote and to placate others rather than they are truly sorry. For
instance you step on the toes of a thug, you say sorry to placate him so that
he will not bash you rather than because you are sorry or your mental force
stirred painfully.



IT
IS ANOTHER UNWITTING FALSITY THAT ‘SORRY IS THE HARDEST WORD TO SAY’, IF
ANYTHING, ‘FORGIVE ME’ IS THE HARDEST WORD BECAUSE PEOPLE ALMOST NEVER ASK FOR
FORGIVENESS FROM OTHERS.



Emotional people cannot truly understand:



To
greater or lesser extent emotional people perceive things and events as
likeable or dislikeable, less often as sad, hurtful, agitating or fearful.



Even
if there are force changes in what you see and hear, you should only perceive
them correctly as force changes, if what you perceive or what happens is
perceived as likeable or dislikeable, you are perceiving it with force that is
blind and meaningless and therefore perceiving falsely.



Because
to greater or lesser extent emotional people always perceive things or
happenings as likeable or dislikeable and liking and disliking is about a blind
meaningless stirring of force, they perceive things and happenings falsely and
therefore never truly. Only the person who does not perceive anything or events
as likeable or dislikeable perceives truly.



WHEN
A PERSON PERCEIVES AN OBJECT AS LIKEABLE HE IS FALSELY MEANINGLESSLY PERCEIVING
THE OBJECT AS STIRRING HIS MENTAL FORCE ATTRACTIVELY AND THUS PERCEIVING
FALSELY HE UNDERSTANDS FALSELY.



EVEN
IF THE SIGHTS OR SOUNDS YOU PERCEIVE CONTAIN FORCE CHANGES, IT IS ONLY TRULY
PERCEIVED AS CONVEYING FORCE CHANGES, TO HAVE YOUR MENTAL FORCE STIRRED
ATTRACTIVELY BY IT IS SOMETHING SEPARATE AND ADDITIONAL THAT IS FALSE AND
MEANINGLESS AND BECAUSE EVENTS AND OBJECTS ALWAYS STIR THEIR MENTAL FORCES
ATTRACTIVELY OR REPULSIVELY (EVEN WITHOUT THEIR REALIZATION), THEY ALWAYS
PERCEIVE FALSELY AND THEREFORE UNDERSTAND FALSELY.



He ain’t heavy, he’s my brother:



This
is an example of false logic and one who understands truly must understand that
it is false.



What
is said is that although he is heavy, he isn’t heavy because he is my brother.
Therefore the person is acknowledging his brother is heavy but just because he
is his brother he is not heavy, something that is contradictory and false.
Heaviness and being your brother has no logically connection, just because a
person is your brother does not make him not heavy if he is heavy.



WHETHER
A PERSON IS YOUR BROTHER OR NOT, IF HE IS HEAVY HE IS HEAVY, TO SAY THAT HE
AIN’T HEAVY BECAUSE HE IS YOUR BROTHER IS TO DENY REALITY AND SPEAK FALSELY
DRIVEN BY EMOTION NEVER TRUE UNDERSTANDING.



Perceive force changes, not as attractive:



Suppose
there is force prolonging syllables, changing speed and loudness in the speech
you hear, one hearing truly merely hears the force prolonging syllables,
changing speed and loudness, there is no attractive ore repulsive stirring of
his mental force.



Do
you need to stir your mental force attractively or repulsively just because
there are force changes in the sounds you hear? If you agree you don’t have to
and yet you perceive the sound as likeable or dislikeable and because like and
dislike about blind meaningless force, you perceived the sound falsely or
meaningless as likeable or dislikeable.



JUST
BECAUSE THERE ARE EVEN INTENSE FORCE CHANGES IN THE SOUNDS YOU HEAR DOES NOT
MEAN YOU MUST PERCEIVE IT AS LIKEABLE OR DISLIKEABLE, YOU MERELY CORRECTLY
PERCEIVE THE SOUND AS WITH FORCE CHANGES, THE PERCEPTION OF IT AS LIKEABLE OR
DISLIKEABLE IS SOMETHING THAT IS ADDITIONAL THAT IS MEANINGLESS AND FALSE AND
THEREFORE ANYONE WHO PERCEIVES THINGS AS LIKEABLE OR DISLIKEABLE IS PERCEIVING
FALSE AND THEREFORE UNDERSTANDING FALSELY.



DO
NOT UNDERESTIMATE THE IMPORTANCE OF NOT LIKING OR DISLIKING WHATEVER YOU PERCEIVE
BECAUSE THE BUDDHA SAID IT IS THE KEY TO FOUR ETERNITIES IN HEAVENLY BLISS.



It just very beautiful, not attractive:



No
matter how beautiful a girl or flower or object, it is just very beautiful,
there is nothing attractive or repulsive about it. If you perceive the girl as
very attractive or very stirring your mental force attractively, you are
perceiving falsely and therefore must understand falsely.



REFLECTING
THE FALSE NATURE OF LIKING AND DISLIKING A BEAUTIFUL GIRL WHO IS ATTRACTIVE TO
YOU MAY BE REPULSIVE TO ANOTHER PERSON (EG ANOTHER JEALOUS GIRL OR HOMOSEXUAL
MAN).



IF
YOUR LIKING FOR AN OBJECT IS TRUE THEN IT MUST BE UNIVERSALLY PERCEIVED AS
ATTRACTIVE BUT THIS IS NOT SO, WHAT IS ATTRACTIVE TO YOU (ROCK MUSIC) MAY
REPULSE OTHERS.



Three reasons why people don’t understand:



The
substance and style of whatever they perceive, think, speak and do cannot be
rendered live but must be rehashed from memory and because there is always a
substance and style of whatever they perceive, think, say or do, they must
always be rehashed. Whatever is rehashed is fixed, requires no understanding
because it is predetermined beforehand.



HENCE
IF WHAT IS SAID OR DONE IS REHASHED, IT REQUIRES NO UNDERSTANDING AT ALL,
MERELY REGURGITATION FROM WHAT IS FIXED BEFOREHAND.



Unless
you perceive people see in toto whatever is happening, if they see in
snapshots, they cannot truly understand because the purpose of seeing in
snapshots is to consult a library of explanations which are at best
standardized understandings to be applied to a variety of occasions, never a
specific to the occasion true understanding.



IF
IT IS TRUE PEOPLE SEE IN SNAPSHOTS, IT IS TO CONSULT A LIBRARY OF EXPLANATIONS
OR PROGRAMMED UNDERSTANDINGS OF SITUATIONS AND THESE ARE REHASHED
APPROXIMATIONS NEEVR SPECIFIC TO AN OCCASION UNDERSTANDING OF THAT OCCASION.



Lastly
they false perceive things and events as likeable or dislikeable and this is
perceiving things as stirring mental force that is blind and meaningless and
therefore they understand falsely.



TO
PERCEIVE SOMETHING OR AN EVENT AS LIKEABLE OR DISLIKEABLE IS TO PERCEIVE
FALSELY SOMETHING AS STIRRING MENTAL FORCE WHEN EVEN IF SOMETHING CONVEYS FORCE
CHANGES, IT SHOULD NOT STIR ONE’S MENTAL FORCE ATTRACTIVELY OR REPULSIVELY.



Another reason people don’t understand:



If
force or emotion is the source of your speech, action or thought then you
cannot truly understand.



“Angered
he lashed out” means the action is driven by force (anger) not guided by reason
or understanding. Here as always it is force, emotion, like, dislike, sadness,
hurt, agitation and fear that is the drive of people’s actions, not genuine
calm understanding reason.



YOU
IF AGREE THAT YOU OR EMOTIONAL PEOPLE CAN SPEAK OR DO SOMETHING DRIVEN BY
EMOTION (LIKE, DISLIKE, SADNESS, HURT, FEAR, AGITATION) THEN BLIND FORCE IS THE
SOURCE OF THAT PERSON’S ACTION AND NO UNDERSTANDING IS REQUIRED TO TAKE ACTION
BASED ON FORCE OR EMOTION.



Exactly how they perceive falsely:



Emotional
people will swear it is not their mental force that is stirring repulsively but
the shit or corpse is revolting, it is not their mental force that is stirring
but that girl is damn attractive.



If
it is the truth that it is their mental force stirring repulsively that causes
the shit to be revolting and their mental forces stirring attractively that
causes the girl to be damn attractive, then they are perceiving falsely that it
is the object that is revolting or attractive when it is their mental force
stirring that makes it so.



How
many if any can say it is my mental force stirring repulsively that makes the
shit or vomitus revolting?



Each
time your mental force stirs on perceiving an object it further conditions you
to perceive it as attractive until it is irresistible and intense and you
perceive (falsely) the object is indeed attractive or repulsive.



TO
STIR YOUR MENTAL FORCE ATTRACTIVELY OR REPULSIVELY IS A STRESSFUL, ENERGY
WASTING, TOTALLY MEANINGLESS ACTION THAT ACTUALLY DETRACTS RATHER THAN ADD TO
THE PLEASURE THAT CAN BE DERIVED FROM THE OBJECT AND TO FURTHER PERCEIVE IT IS
THE OBJECT ITSELF THAT IS ATTRACTIVE OR REVOLTING IS FALSE PERCEPTION THAT MUST
LEAD TO FALSE UNDERSTANDING AND THENCE NO UNDERSTANDING.



Proof stylish people cannot truly see:



True
understanding is simply truly seeing. If you see something truly, you
understand it truly. If you see it falsely, you understand it falsely and
therefore don’t understand.



If
a person truly saw what he and everyone here does, he must see the constant use
of force to prolong syllables/ units of motion, change speed and strength of
force and see that it is totally meaningless, for show and leads to insoluble
stress, restlessness and inability to concentrate.



Stylish
people do not see these constant force changes, instead they see the sound and visual
effects of these force changes and perceive them as stylish, meaningful when
they are meaningless and lead to terrible suffering.



THERE
ARE CONSTANT FORCE PROLONGING, CHANGING SPEED AND STRENGTH IN THE SPEECH AND
ACTIONS OF PEOPLE HERE AND ANYONE WHO PERCEIVES TRULY MUST PERCEIVE THESE FORCE
CHANGES. STYLISH PEOPLE DO NOT PERCEIVE THESE FORCE CHANGES BUT THEY PERCEIVE
THE SOUND AND VISUAL EFFECTS OF THESE CHANGES AND PERCEIVE THEM FALSELY AS MEANINGFUL, STYLISH WHEN THEY ARE
MEANINGLESS AND HARMFUL TO SELF AND OTHERS.



IF
YOU PERCEIVE TRULY HOW IS IT THAT YOU CANNOT SEE THE CONSTANT USE OF FORCE TO
STRETCH SYLLABLES, CHANGE SPEED AND LOUDNESS THAT ARE NOT ONLY NOT
INSIGNIFICANT BUT IS THE ROOT TO THE INSOLUBLE STRESS, RESTLESSNESS AND
INABILITY TO CONCENTRATE THAT TORMENT STYLISH PEOPLE AND WILL LEAD TO LOSS OF
CONTROL AND ULTIMATE INSANITY?



Memory & rehashing:



Rehashing
must not be confused with memory, the two are related but different.



All
beings have the property of memory that may be inferior or superior in
different beings and it is when the being foolishly harness his memory to
fashion plans in how to act or speak based on a facsimile or modified facsimile
of what he remembered that he becomes a rehasher or robot or slave that is
always tormenting suffering rather than the pleasure or superiority it is made
out to be by people who are in truth substance and style robots.



If
you examine carefully, a song that you have heard a few times may keep
recurring even in ‘photographic’ detail in your mind and you may have
difficulty banishing it. This is memory at work and even if you have forgotten
the song many years later, the memory is actually in there.



You
can remember things and retrieve those memories or refer to them to make
decisions as to what to say and do and this is not rehashing. It is when a
person uses the memory (eg of how and what Elvis sang) and uses it as a
template to copy or make a plan of what and how to sing exactly like Elvis did
or in a modified way to his liking of what and how Elvis sang and he then sings
approximately or exactly as he planned that he becomes a mechanical rehasher or
robot.



IT
IS OK TO REMEMBER THINGS AND REFER TO THESE MEMORIES TO MAKE DECISIONS AS TO
WHAT TO SAY OR DO, THIS IS NOT REHASHING.



IT
IS WHEN A BEING USES THE MEMORY TO FASHION A FIXED PLAN OF HOW AND WHAT TO DO
THAT HE THEN SUBSEQUENTLY USES TO GUIDE OR BECOME THE DETAILED TEMPLATE OF WHAT
AND HOW HE SAYS OR DOES SOMETHING THAT MAKES HIM A ROBOT OR REHASHER. SUBSEQUENTLY
HE NEVER SAYS OR DOES THAT THING THAT DEPARTS FROM THAT PLAN OR PROGRAM, HE
ALWAYS RETRIEVES AND REPRODUCES FROM THAT MEMORIZED PLANS EVEN IN STEREOTYPICAL
OR EXACT COPY FASHION.



A voyeur, selector and power supplier:



Anyone
who rehashes or fashions plans of what to say and do that depends on for his
speech and actions is reduced to being a voyeur and selector of which tracks to
retrieve and play and how much power he supplies on each occasion just as you
can play the same song with the amplifier volume and tone controls in different
settings.



Even
his function as selector and power selector is sometimes taken away from him,
sometimes his mental jukebox automatically executes his speech and actions based
on environmental cues even against his wishes. When his emotions are strongly
stirred or he is tired or stressed, his control over how much power to supply
is impaired or even neutralized. Thus a person seized by violent anger loses
control over how much power he supplies to his angered speech or action and end
up killing someone or himself.



What sustains a robot?



A
robot or parrot is actually a prisoner, not the master he thinks he is. So what
sustains a parrot or robot?



What
he says or does is often not true, he does not know whether it is true or false
or he even knows it is insincere and so it is not the truth of what he says or
does that sustains him but it is his false perception of how impressive,
pleasing, intimidating or dominating it is that sustains him.



A
ROBOT THRIVES ON HIS FALSE PERCEPTION REINFORCED BY OTHERS THAT HIS STYLISH SPEECH
AND ACTIONS ARE IMPRESSIVE, PLEASING, INTIMIDATING AND DOMINATING, NOT ON THE
TRUTH OR UNDERSTANDING OF IT.



In
addition he enjoys the (controlled) exercise of force in prolonging syllables,
changing speed and loudness that comes with rehashed speech and actions.



AN
IMPORTANT AVENUE OF PLEASURE AND MEANING OF ROBOTS IS HIS ENJOYMENT OF HIS
EXERCISING OF FORCE TO VARY THE PROLONGING, CHANGING SPEED AND STRENGTH ON
DIFFERENT OCCASIONS.



His
ability to select the ‘right’ track to play out of so many different tracks available
in his mental jukebox too is a source of pleasure or sense of meaning and
achievement.



PLAYING
AROUND WITH THE CHOICES POSSIBLE TO SELECT FROM HIS MENTAL JUKEBOX TOO IS A
SOURCE OF PLEASURE AND MEANING.



His
substance and style speech and actions designed to impress and please others
bring material rewards in money, assets and sensate pleasures and this too is
what sustains him and gives him meaning.



WHILST
DISHONESTY AND FAKING IT CAN BE STRESSFUL AND MIND BENDING, IT ALLOWS HIM TO
GET ALONG AND ACQUIRE MATERIAL AND SENSATE PLEASURES.



The
stirring of his mental force attractively or liking is also what sustains him
here. Dislike is just the other side of the coin he must put up with but it is
liking or stirring his mental force attractively that sustains him.



It
is never meaning or truth or understanding that sustains emotional people but
it is pleasure seeking (even pleasure inflicting pain on others) and avoiding
pain that sustains them here and they do not understand that pleasure is merely
a product of force, it is usually mild force that gives pleasure although in
masochism, quite intense force is experienced perversely as pleasure.



All
these are false and fruits that do not last or perishes and so often when beset
by suffering he is driven to moan that life is meaningless.

Rising property prices in Asia prompt...

 

Rising property prices in Asia prompt bubble fears:
People think they talk great sense but they talk foolishly. When you speak of ‘fear’ you mean you are still not sure there is a bubble but you suspect.


IF THERE HAS BEEN A BIG PROPERTY BUBBLE FOR MANY YEARS EVEN A DECADE AND NOW YOU ARE TALKING OF FEAR OF A BUBBLE, DON’T YOU LOOK FOOLISH RATHER THAN WISE THAT YOU THINK?


THE ONLY JUSTIFIED RISE IN PROPERTY PRICES IS IF THE COSTS OF BUILDING HAS RISEN AND BECAUSE PRICES HAVE RISEN FAR OUTSTRIPPING COSTS, IT IS SPECULATIVE AND THEREFORE THERE HAS BEEN A SPECULATIVE BUBBLE FOR A LONG TIME.


‘Fears’ means you are still not sure it is a bubble, you suspect there is a bubble when the bubble is getting terminal, going to burst.


Terminal cancer patient fears he may have cancer:


The person who speaks of rising prices prompting fears of a bubble is like the person with terminal cancer voicing his fears he may have cancer.


He thinks he talks sense but anyone in his right mind can see he has advanced cancer.


If there is such a thing called a property bubble it can be clearly defined as such and such and it can be determined when that bubble started from data of the past. If the bubble has been inflating for a long time and it is now close to bursting and you fear or suspect, cannot see there is a massive bubble, aren’t you foolish?


Exposing they reason with force:


“Rising property prices in Asia prompts bubble fears” unwittingly exposes that emotional people use force (that is blind and the wrong tool) through emotion to reason rather than genuine, specific to the occasion understanding of the situation.


The statement guided by genuine specific to the occasion reason devoid of emotion states: Rising property prices in Asia indicates a bubble.


What is the point of raising fear that is blind, consumes energy, is stressful and roils or muddies the mind impeding and even rendering impossible clear seeing and understanding?


The truth is that stylish emotional people are never capable of true specific to the occasion understanding the situation and using that understanding to reason or come to a conclusion specific to that occasion. Whatever reasoning they have is rehashed from memory to fit the occasion and because the reasoning is designed to fit a class of occasion rather than an occasion, it never fits perfectly and often is seriously erroneous.


Thus they have a concept of what a bubble is and the perception of rising property prices stirs or triggers their emotional fear (a characteristic stirring of their mental force) to recognize or conclude that this may mean, not means there is a bubble. Thus it is the perception of rising property prices that stirs their mental forces and it is this stirred mental force that searches, finds and applies the recorded explanation that there may be a bubble.


The person with genuine understanding will understand that there is no reason for property prices to rise spectacularly unless underlying costs have risen spectacularly and in the absence of such cost increases the rises must be driven by speculation and therefore there IS not MAYBE a bubble.


IT IS A DEEP SEATED SELF AND OTHER DECEPTION THAT EMOTIONAL PEOPLE CAN TRULY UNDERSTAND AND REASON. THEY CAN NO MORE TRULY REASON THAN A SOPHISTICATED AUDI SPORTS CAR CAN REASON ON ITS CHARGE UP THE TWISTING DANGEROUS CLIMB UP PIKE’S PEAK.


ALL EMOTIONAL PEOPLE HAVE A SET OF EXPLANATIONS OR UNDERSTANDINGS OF EVENTS THAT CAN OCCUR, MORE INTELLIGENT ONES HAVE MORE STORED EXPLANATIONS AND THESE EXPLANATIONS MAY BE MORE ACCURATE IN SOME THAN IN OTHERS BUT NO MATTER HOW ACCURATE, THEY ARE APPROXIMATIONS AND EVEN THOUGH THESE EXPLANATIONS EXISTS IN THEIR MINDS THEY MAY RETRIEVE THE WRONG EXPLANATIONS FOR THE OCCASION EG KRUGMAN ‘REASONS’ THERE IS NO OIL BUBBLE DESPITE MUCH EVIDENCE IT IS A BUBBLE EVEN CORNERED MARKET BY THE ‘BIG BOYS’.


WHATEVER IS RECORDED AND REHASHED TO FIT A SITUATION NEVER FITS PERFECTLY COMPARED TO WHAT IS COMPOSED FOR AN OCCASION BASED ON UNDERSTANDING OF THE RELEVANT STRANDS OF THAT OCCASION. THE OTHER DANGER OF REHASHED EXPLANATIONS IS THAT THE WRONG EXPLANATION (NO BUBBLE WHEN THERE IS EVEN A ‘WHOPPING’ BUBBLE) MAY BE REHASHED TO APPLY TO THE SITUATION.


IT IS AN ABIDING DELUSION THAT EMOTIONAL PEOPLE CAN GENUINELY REASON, THEY CAN’T, THEY ARE LIKE BLIND MEN DEPENDENT ON WALKING STICKS WHICH ARE RECORDED EXPLANATIONS COPIED WITHOUT QUESTION FROM OTHERS OR FABRICATED BY THEMSELVES THAT THE AROUSED EMOTION OF AN OCCASION STIRS THEM TO SEARCH THEIR JUKEBOXES FOR AN EXPLANATION AND HAVING FOUND ONE THAT MAY BE INCORRECT, THEY APPLY IT TO THE SITUATION TO COME UP WITH STATEMENTS LIKE RISING PRICES STIRS (HIS) FEARS OF BUBBLE. BECAUSE IT IS BASED ON FORCE THAT IS BLIND, HE IS NOT SURE, HE THINKS THERE IS A BUBBLE BUT HE IS NOT SURE.


How emotional people actually reason:


Faced with a situation (eg rising property prices in Asia), the emotional person takes snapshots and he may then either ignore it without understanding or he may try to understand it or his emotions are stirred to wonder why or be puzzled and his mental force thus stirred to seek an explanation, he searches his mental jukebox for a recorded explanation and when his mental jukebox churns out an answer ‘bubble’, his fear is aroused. If he finds no mental jukebox explanations he may seek external explanations from others (eg what Krugman or other gurus write) or search for answers on Google. Thus having an answer that he likes (stirs his mental force attractively) he may remember or memorize it so that he can rehash in future to explain future similar events.


THUS FACED WITH A SITUATION HE DOES NOT UNDERSTAND THE EMOTIONAL PERSON STIRS HIS MENTAL FORCE & EMOTIONS TO FIND AN ANSWER INTERNALLY OR EXTERNALLY AND HAVING FOUND ONE THAT MAY APPROXIMATELY FIT OR BE TOTALLY ‘OFF’, HE APPLIES IT AND SATISFIES HIMSELF HE UNDERSTOOD THE SITUATION. IT IS THEREFORE FORCE RATHER THAN SEEING THAT THE EMOTIONAL PERSON DEPENDS ON FOR EXPLANATIONS.


IN THE SAME SITUATION, A PERSON OF TRUE UNDERSTANDING DOES NOT RUSH INTO CONCLUSION BUT ONCE HE HAS IN PLACE ALL STRANDS OF INFORMATION THAT ARE RELEVANT (EG RAPIDLY RISING PROPERTY PRICES, UNLIKELY IF IMPOSSIBLE COSTS OF CONSTRUCTION HAS INCREASED IN TANDEM) HE CONCLUDES WITH SEEING THAT THERE IS A BUBBLE. HE SEES THERE IS A BUBBLE NOT FEARS THERE MAY BE A BUBBLE AND THUS SEEING HE MAY TAKE CORRECT ACTIONS TO DEFUSE THAT DANGEROUS BUBBLE THAT CAN LEAD TO TEARS EVEN SUICIDE FOR THOSE FOOLISHLY DRAWN TO BUY PROPERTY AT SUCH INFLATED PRICES.


Recorded explanations copied from others:


“Bubble” is an explanation for the perception ‘rising property prices in Asia’ and if there is such a thing as a bubble it can be clearly defined.


Often people hear others talk about ‘bubbles’, think it is groovy without understanding what it actually means and thus they memorize it or incorporate it into their mental jukeboxes without understanding or approximately understanding it and eagerly look for future occasions to rehash it to impress others.


THUS EVEN THEIR FORMULATION OR RECORDING OF EXPLANTIONS IN THEIR JUKEBOXES IS COPIED FROM OTHERS, OFTEN WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING OR FAULTY UNDERSTANDING, THEIR REHASH IS DRIVEN BY FORCE. WHEN A FUTURE SITUATION ARISES, THEY DO NOT USE SEEING AND UNDERSTANDING BUT THEY USE FORCE TO SEEK IN THEIR MENTAL JUKEBOX AN EXPLANATION THAT IS PREFERABLY IMPRESSIVE ‘BUBBLE’ TO EXPLAIN THINGS.


THE FORMULATION OF THE RECORDED EXPLANATIONS IS OFTEN WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING, COPIED FROM OTHERS.


THEY DO NOT SEE AND UNDERSTAND THE SITUATION TO REASON THERE IS A BUBBLE BUT THEY SEEK THEIR MENTAL JUKEBOX AND COME UP WITH THE ANSWER ‘BUBBLE’ THAT THEN STIRS FEAR IN THEM AND SO THEY SAY ‘FEAR OF A BUBBLE’


WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED IS THAT THEY ARE CONFRONTED WITH RISING PROPERTY PRICES THAT THEY THEN USE FORCE TO SEARCH FOR AN ANSWER IN THEIR MENTAL JUKEBOX THAT THEN THROWS UP THE ANSWER, ‘BUBBLE’ THAT THEN AROUSES FEAR IN THEM AND SO THEY SAY INCORRECTLY RISING PRICES STIR FEARS OF A BUBBLE.


Obama is self serving not good:


For one who sees correctly, Obama and the US that he represents is self serving and not good.


Even the most radical proposals at the climate conference in Copenhagen may be too little too late and even that the US and major countries like China cannot come to agreement because of myopic short term economic considerations not realizing that they themselves are at risk of great economic losses brought on by global warming. If New York was to be submerged by rising seas, would that be a terrible loss for America?


THUS REFLECTING HIS ARROGANCE AND SELF SERVING NATURE OBAMA REFUSED TO COMMIT THE US TO ANY TREATIES AND THE CONFERENCE THAT WAS IN TRUTH A FAILURE WAS HAILED AS A FIRST STEP TO REDRESS. MANKIND DOES NOT HAVE THE LUXURY OF TIME TO ACT, IT IS ALREADY TOO LATE AND ALL THOSE WHO PERCEIVE IT AS A SORT OF HALF VICTORY IS DELUDED HEADED FOR INSANITY. IT WAS A FAILURE BY SELFISH MANKIND WITHOUT REGARD FPR THE COMMON GOOD.


WHETHER OBAMA IS GOOD OR A HYPOCRITE IS CLEARLY VISIBLE IN HIS APPEARANCE AND BEHAVIOR, IF HE IS A HYPOCRITE AND YOU THINK HE IS GOOD, AREN’T YOU BLIND AND THAT IS NOT THE PATH TO HEAVEN.


Googling your own mental jukebox:


Whatever is pre-recorded does not require understanding because it is recorded or fixed, what is left is Googling your mental jukebox for it to throw up a list of possibilities and you merely select from the list what best fits the situation.


Thus in the situation where a person perceives rapidly rising property prices in Asia, he merely googles his mental jukebox and it then churns out a list of possible causes, one of which is that there is a bubble and that possibility whether real or imagined stirs the person’s fear or like or dislike as the case may be.


THUS NO UNDERSTANDING IS INVOLVED, THE PERCEPTION OF RISING PRICES MERELY CAUSES THE PERSON TO SEARCH OR ‘GOOGLE’ HIS MENTAL JUKEBOX FOR AN ANSWER AND HIS JUKEBOX DULY CHURNS UP SOME POSSIBILITIES ONE OF WHICH MAY BE ‘BUBBLE’ AND PERCEIVING ‘BUBBLE’ THE PERSON MAY BE ALARMED OR FEARFUL. YOU MAY BE RIGHT UNDERSTANDING IS INVOLVED OR NECESSARY BUT THE TRUTH MAY BE UNDERSTANDING IS NOT INVOLVED NOR NECESSARY JUST AS IT IS NOT NECESSARY FOR THE AUDI SPORTS CAR TO HAVE ANY UNDERSTANDING TO BE PROGRAMMED TO MAKE MANY DECISIONS IN QUICK SUCCESSION TO ARRIVE SAFELY AT THE TOP OF THE HILL.


Is Googling understanding?
Is Googling, whether your own mind or as in ‘the real thing’ or using Google to search on the internet understanding or anything that requires answering?


When you Google your mind, you are posing a question that your mental jukebox throws up some differing answers or no answers that you then select and activate the answers selected that are already predetermined and although you can modify those answers as many times as you like, once modified they again become the fixed, standardised answers in which no understanding is required.


Googling yourself, presenting your mind with a situation or poser and getting a multiple of possible answers or no answers at all is never true understanding nor is true understanding involved or required.


What is thrown up by your Google search is standardized, fixed, predetermined and all you do is pick out the search result you deem best fit and then whatever is contained in that search you select becomes your fixed plan according to which you act.


What is true understanding?


Suppose a situation contains different elements A, B, S, D. If you see these different elements A, B, S, D as they are actually present then thus seeing you truly understood that situation as it is, A, B, S, D. Again in another situation where are the strands C, V, X, Q present and you see all those strands as they are present then you have truly understood that situation.


In the economy as in climate:


Just as even the most radical proposals for rectifying global warming is far too little too late and mankind has refused to act for its own good, in the same way, whatever corrective measures mankind can undertake to correct its ‘stuffed’ financial and economic system is far too little too late but even these steps mankind is balking at taking in preference for continuing the same, painless populist measures that also continue to benefit politicians and big business and bankers to the detriment of the system.


IT MAY BE TRUE AS YOU THINK THAT MANKIND UNDERSTANDS OR IT MAY BE TRUE MANKIND FROM TOP TO BOTTOM DO NOT UNDERSTAND, THEY THINK THEY UNDERSTAND BUT THEY UNDERSTAND FALSELY THAT WHAT IS FATAL IS BENEFICIAL AND DO NOT UNDERSTAND THEY ARE HEADED FOR THE PRECIPICE.


Why US band's angry anthem is all the Rage in UK


No reasons are needed for an angry anthem that stirs emotions in emotional people so that it becomes the rage in UK and therefore the question that implies there is a reason is deluded.


The anger in the anthem is contagious, arouses emotional people’s mental forces so that it spreads amongst emotional people. Force is blind and addictive and so it is to be expected that it can spread as in hysteria and rioting.


Why raise fears when you should summon understanding and concern?


Concern is different from fear although reflecting their muddled thinking, concern to emotional people means anxiety or agitation that has components of fearfulness and disturbance. But in its true sense concern is just awareness of or paying attention to something instead of ignoring it.


Why raise fears that stir the mind and prevent calm clear thinking upon awareness of a bubble when you should summon reason to understand all the dangers associated with bubbles and thus understanding all those dangers, to put in action remedies if possible?


THUS IT IS TOTALLY BIZARRE, COUNTERPRODUCTIVE TO TALK ABOUT STIRRING FEARS THAT IS THE WRONG TOOL TO DEAL WITH A BUBBLE. INSTEAD YOU SHOULD SUMMON UNDERSTANDING WHAT A BUBBLE IS, WHAT ITS DANGERS ARE AND THUS UNDERSTANDING TO TAKE STEPS IF POSSIBLE TO COUNTER THE BUBBLE. ONE SHOULD BE CONCERNED WITH A BUBBLE NOT RAISE FEARS OF THE BUBBLE. THUS THE FACT THAT HE AND YOU SEE NOTHING WRONG WITH THE STATEMENT, THINK IT IS PERFECTLY LOGICAL REFLECTS ADVANCED FALSE PERCEPTION OF WHAT IS FALSE IS TRUE, NOT JUST HERE BUT MANY OTHER PLACES THAT HE AND YOU TAKE FO GRANTED.


THE STATEMENT IS FALSE NOT JUST IN THE WAY I POINT OUT ABOVE BUT IN MORE WAYS. IT IS ISSUED OUT OF FALSE, REHASHED UNDERSTANDING, NOT SPECIFICALLY TRULY UNDERSTANDING THE SITUATION. IT IS FALSE IN SAYING THERE MAY BE A BUBBLE WHEN THERE IS NOT JUST A BUBBLE BUT IT HAS BEEN INFLATING FOR MANY YEARS TO EVEN MASSIVE PROPORTIONS (AND YET HE TALKS OF FEARS OR SUSPICIONS OF A BUBBLE).


What is a bubble?


I am not a trained economist but I will tell you my definition of a bubble:


A bubble is the relentless rise in price of a valued asset (eg shares, property, commodities like oil) that far outstrips its costs or intrinsic value. In other words if the cost for producing oil or houses remains the same but prices keep rising, it must be a bubble driven by greed for unrighteous gains as foolish people get sucked in to bid at higher and higher prices to reap future profits or in order not to be priced out of the commodity by further rises. Thus bubbles are driven by greed for future gains and fears of missing out or being priced out in the future.


Property is a killer far more than people concede because it is very expensive, has a high profit margin and therefore sucks credit out of the system because large amounts of savers money must be lent to borrowers who buy property transferred to wicked greedy developers & speculators so that in time the banking system is depleted of savings to lend for useful business purposes, savers’ money are lost through reckless lending and default whilst increasingly, a privileged few (developers and shrewd speculators) are left with so much money they cannot spend enough to keep the economy alive.


 Why no one can kill a Buddha:


If you think there may be some circumstances or some beings powerful enough to kill a Buddha you may be right or have wrong view.


If there is such a being called a Buddha then his nature can be defined and without seeing you should not presume he can be killed like ordinary people.


The Buddha’s life is his last in existence and no one can take his life, only he can extinguish his life or permit his life to be extinguished by others eg a bite of a snake.


When Brahmins tried to split some logs to light sacrificial fires, they could not do it and the chief Brahmin thought it was the work of the Buddha who then asked him shall the logs be split. Once the chief Brahmin said ‘so be it’, in an instance all 500 logs split.


If it is possible for the Buddha to prevent anyone from splitting the logs how is possible for anyone to split his head with an axe?


When the Buddha passed away no one could move his body until certain conditions specified by divine beings were met and his body wrapped in funeral cloth would not burst into flames until Kassapa one of the Elders arrived from afar and paid his last homage to the Buddha whereupon it spontaneously burst into flames.


The Buddha said enlightened ones can touch the sun and moon (and not get burnt), how is it than a mere mortal can harm him?


Jesus said if you have faith as little as a mustard seed you can tell a mountain to move and it shall be done and so this is a false world that is not sacrosanct, what seems so real is an illusion, empty, meaningless.


Taken for a ride:


Because the costs of building a house is far less than the selling price, those who bought houses and congratulated themselves on their book gains from the appreciated prices of their houses have been taken for a ride, the true gainers are property developers and speculators who have sold property for fat profits. Whilst you count your chickens before they hatch (and they may never hatch, even worse become a rotten stinking mess) these shrewd wicked developers and speculators are ‘laughing to the banks’ (not realize there is a pit in hell waiting for them).


And it is savers’ money in banks that government officials shirking their duties have permitted to be mobilized to be transferred to developers and speculators on behalf of foolish buyers.


DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE PROPERTY AS A KILLER OF THE ECONOMY. IT IS THE MAJOR KILLER THAT HAS BANKRUPTED THE SYSTEM, TRANSFERRED SAVERS’ MONEY TO THE POCKETS OF THE FEW DEVELOPERS AND SPECULATORS ON BEHALF OF FOOLISH BORROWERS WHO ARE COUNTING THEIR EGGS BEFORE THEY HATCH THAT MAY NEVER HATCH AND MAY EVEN TURN ROTTEN.


The Noughties: An unsettling decade


Noughties is a sly or trying to be smart reference to the decade with zeros in the middle.


It is actually a false or meaningless statement.


Only force can unsettle and only emotional people can be unsettled. Thus if a person has no emotion or mental force, he cannot be unsettled and to him there is nothing unsettling about the decade. Because force is blind and meaningless, to speak of force and being unsettled is meaningless.


IT IS NOT THE DECADE THAT IS UNSETTLING BUT IT IS YOUR MENTAL FORCE THAT STIRS YOUR MIND AND MAKES YOU FALSELY PERCEIVE IT AS UNSETTLING THAT YOU WANT TO CONVERT OTHERS TO THE SAME FALSE VIEW. BECAUSE THERE IS NOTHING INTRINSICALLY SETTLING OR UNSETTLING ABOUT THE DECADE, IT IS A PERSON’S STIRRED EMOTIONS AND FALSE PERCEPTION THAT IT IS UNSETTLING, WHAT HE SAYS IS FALSE THAT ALSO HAS KARMA NOT MERIT BECAUSE HE WANTS TO INFLUENCE OTHERS TO SIMILARLY VIEW THINGS.


'Thou shalt shoplift' says priest







Father Jones said some people had little option but to turn to crime


A priest from North Yorkshire has advised his congregation to shoplift if they find themselves in hard times.


Father Tim Jones, the parish priest of St Lawrence and St Hilda in York, said people should steal from big chains rather than small businesses.


He said society's attitude to those in need "leaves some people little option but crime".


It reflects how sick society is that even priests go against the religion they profess.


EVEN IF YOU SHOULD STARVE TO DEATH, IT IS PREFERABLE YOU STARVE TO DEATH THAN SHOPLIFT AND CONDEMN YOURSELF TO ETERNAL PUNISHMENT AND THIS PRIEST IS ASKING FOR TERRIBLE KARMA WITH HIS DELUDED ADVICE.


Who says you cannot strike it rich with garbage?


This statement is false, is never made with true reasoning but driven by emotion to make much as if the garbage business is that great.


It is a challenge and a blanket dismissal of others as wrong to ask ‘who say’ and that is ill will that is the path to perdition. It is a figment of his imagination because no one said that to him, though some may dismiss garbage, it is not universal that everyone dismisses garbage as a source of profit and so his challenge and dismissal is unwarranted, inappropriate that is the path to insanity.


IF NO ONE TOLD HIM THERE IS NO MONEY OR WEALTH IN GARBAGE, HE IS MAKING IT UP OR FALSIFYING AND HE DID NOT MEAN WHAT HE SAID BECAUSE HE MEANS TO CHALLENGE AND DISMISS THE CONTRARY OPINION AS FALSE. THE PERSON IS A FOOL HEADING FOR WOE. THE PURPOSE OF THE STATEMENT IS TO CHALLENGE, NOT ASK WHO SAID THERE IS NO MONEY IN GARBAGE AND THEREFORE HE DOES NOT MEAN WHAT HE SAID.


Do you understand what you say?


If you truly understand what you say then you should understand when you ask, “who says you cannot strike it rich with garbage” you want to know from others who said that.


But he is not interested in knowing who said that, his actual purpose is to challenge and so he did not mean what he said, did not truly understand what he said which is to challenge others to prove them wrong.


Rote statement copied without understanding:


“Who says you cannot strike it rich with garbage” is a rote or rehashed statement according to the format “Who says blah, blah, blah” that the person heard others use, liked it and memorize to rehash himself without understanding that it is false.


He is not interested in finding out who said that as purported but what he meant is “I challenge you to say you cannot strike it rich with garbage”.


Fabricated, can never happen:


“Rising prices stirs or raises fears of a bubble” is always a fabrication and can never happen the way it is said. It is impossible that rising prices can stir fear but it is fabricated because it sounds impressive or to stir emotion (fear) in others.


What actually happened is likely that the perception of rising property prices causes his mind to randomly or by searching or ‘Googling’ for meaning to churn out the possibility of a bubble and this may then caused fear in him or there was no fear stirred but he speaks of fear to consciously or unconsciously stir emotion in others so that what he says would be more appetizing or attractive.


WHEN YOU SAY ‘RISING PRICES STIRS FEAR OF A BUBBLE’ YOU ARE SAYING THAT RISING PRICES CAN STIR FEAR WHICH IS BLIND THAT THEN TELLS OR SUGGESTS TO YOU THERE IS A BUBBLE. THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE BUT IT MUST BE A FABRICATION TO IMPRESS AND STIR EMOTION. WHAT HAPPENED WAS THAT RISING PRICES CAUSED HIS MIND TO THINK OF A BUBBLE WHICH MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE STIRRED FEAR IN HIM AND SUBSEQUENTLY HE FABRICATED HIS STATEMENT IN SUCH A WAY AS TO BE IMPRESSIVE OR STIR FEAR IN OTHERS.


BECAUSE IT NEVER HAPPENED THE WAY YOU STATED YOU ARE COURTING MADNESS AND YOU HAVE KARMA FOR WANTING OTHERS TO ACCEPT WHAT YOU SAY IS FABRICATED & FALSE IS TRUE.


SOMETHING HAPPENED (SAW RISING PRICES AND THOUGHT ABOUT A BUBBLE) BUT INSTEAD OF JUST LETTING THEIR YES BE YES ONLY TO STATE WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED, EMOTIONAL STYLISH PEOPLE MUST TROUBLE THEMSELVES AND OTHERS TO FIND A WAY TO SAY IT THAT THEY PERCEIVE WILL IMPRESS OR THEY WANT TO STIR EMOTIONS IN OTHERS.


HERE AS IN MANY PLACES PEOPLE THINK THEY SPEAK THE TRUTH, THEY HEAR THE TRUTH BUT THEY HEAR FABRICATION, FALSIFICATION THAT IS FAR FROM TRUE.


Who is fit to teach me?


Why should I go to church or attend evangelical rallies? Who amongst the preachers and evangelists can teach me something about truth and righteousness that I do not know better than them?


THUS ANYONE WHO WANTS ME TO GO TO CHURCHES OR TEMPLES OR ATTEND EVANGELICAL RALLIES IS A FOOL, DELUDED. DID JESUS OR THE BUDDHA NEED TO ATTEND CHURCH?


A tiger can stir fear not rising prices:


The sudden appearance of a tiger or lion in front of you can stir fear in you but if you think rising prices can stir fear in you, either you are lying or you are already quite mad. Thus what is said is false, disingenuous to spice up what he wants to say.


If you keep talking about fear being stirred when it isn’t, one day karma may arranged for fear to be truly stirred in you as when you are suddenly confronted with a growling tiger that wants to tear you to bits.


Farfetched:


It is farfetched or incredible that rising property prices can stir emotional fear in a person and that triggered fear can then tell you there may be a bubble. Only reasoning or seeing can tell you there may be a bubble, fear a proxy of force that is blind cannot tell anyone anything. Force can only seize and drive an object to move it with changing speed, direction or strength, it can never tell anyone anything like there is a bubble.


THUS IT IS IMPOSSIBLE THAT RISING PROPERTY PRICES CAN TRIGGER FEAR IN A PERSON LET ALONE THE TRIGGERED FEAR CAN THEN TELL YOU THERE IS A BUBBLE BUT IT IS A CONCOCTION OR FABRICATION OF A FOOL WHO DOES NOT KNOW HE IS PUTTING A NOOSE AROUND HIS NECK.


THUS HE AND YOU SEE NOTHING WRONG WITH THE STATEMENT BUT THERE MAY BE EVERYTHING WRONG WITH THE STATEMENT BECAUSE IT IS FALSE AND IT IS YOUR FALSE PERCEPTION THAT MAKES YOU SEE NOTHING WRONG OR SEE IT AS TRUE.


 


Copenhagen deal causes EU carbon price fall


(Here again you see derivatives at play and it reflects the insanity of mankind that it thinks it works when it is an avenue for making money by cheating and will fail. How can you pay someone else to do the cleaning for you whilst you continue to pollute or release carbon into the atmosphere? The rationale if I am correct is that rather than you the industrialist taking measures to reduce carbon production, you pay someone to do it for you so that you can continue the same. The logic is actually mad and it reflects humanity’s madness that they think it is sophisticated and works like financial derivatives)


Carbon prices in Europe dropped to a six-month low after agreements made at the Copenhagen climate summit to cut emissions disappointed traders.


The accord signed by the US, China and emerging major economies is weaker than a legally binding agreement.


Because of this the European Union says it is not willing to raise its carbon cutting target to 30% by 2020.


In early market trading, EU allowances for December 2010 delivery, dropped 8.7% to €12.40 a tonne.


A deeper cut in emissions targets would have increased demand for these allowances, pushing up prices.


Prime Minister Gordon Brown said the Copenhagen talks were "at best flawed and at worst chaotic".


He blamed a handful of countries for blocking a binding agreement and said the talks process had to be reformed to avoid the same happening again.


Energy Secretary Ed Miliband singled out China for vetoing an agreement on emissions.


The 193-nation UN conference ended with delegates simply "taking note" of a US-led climate deal.


The carbon market trades emissions under cap-and-trade schemes whereby emissions are limited and can then be traded.


Each state under the scheme gets an emissions allocation that it then divides among its worst emission-producing companies.


If it comes in under target, it can sell its excess allowance as carbon credits to other firms. If it comes in over target, it has to pay a penalty and then go to the market to buy credits to make up the difference.


Credits are measured in units of emissions reductions, each one being the equivalent to the reduction of one tonne of carbon dioxide.


Because the Copenhagen accord is not legally binding, those who have signed it are not obliged to reduce the cap on their emissions.


Paying someone to pray for you:


Carbon derivatives may be like the man who cannot go to the temple to pray paying someone else to pray on his behalf. This person will pocket the money and end up not going to the temple and so it is a scam for someone to make money and for the lazy man to shirk his duty to pray at the temple.


It is all for show, you think they care?


Derivatives are a way to be seen to be doing something when nothing is done. To satisfy authorities that you are not polluting when you are polluting, you can show certificates that you are paying others to not pollute on your behalf and it may be much cheaper than not polluting yourself and whether the paid person actually does the non pollution on your behalf does not matter much, what matters is that enforcers are staved off. And who is the one who suffers? It is the earth that gets neglected because nothing is done to remedy global warming so in the end disaster happens and you wonder why it happened.


 


Recession here we come again:


Geitner is reported to have said the worst is over and the government will not permit the near catastrophe of the recent past to repeat. Here is someone who differs.


Charles Goodhart warns of return to recession as bank lending falls


The contraction of bank lending and the M3 money supply in the US and Europe over recent months has become a serious concern and raises the risk of a slide back into recession, according to one of Britain's most celebrated economists.


 


By Ambrose Evans-Pritchard
Published: 4:40PM GMT 22 Dec 2009


Professor Charles Goodhart, a former top official at the Bank of England now at the London School of Economics, said policymakers have neglected the flashing danger signal of the monetary data.


"What has happened to all the monetarists? Growth in money holdings and lending has plummeted. Thirty, or 40, years ago they would have been forewarning doom and destruction at this juncture, and casting anathemas at the authorities," he wrote in a consultant report for Morgan Stanley.


 


"There is a danger that markets and authorities become obsessed about the fiscal implications of the crisis at a time when the real worries should still focus on private sector access to credit and money."


The exception is China, which has the opposite problem: monetary growth is running at 30pc a year. Beijing will have to slam on the brakes soon. "When that happens the locomotive will slow, and probably reveal a string of non-performing loans; it has always been thus," he said. Prof Goodhart said it was too early for the world's central bankers to congratulate themselves for averting a slump.


The US Federal Reserve has stopped publishing M3, which covers a broad range of deposits. This may have been a blunder. The data gave advance warning of bubble trouble in 2006-2007, and again before the US economy crashed in late 2008. Some blame lies with Fed Chair Ben Bernanke, a New Keynesian openly scornful of monetarist thinking.


Reconstructed data shows that M3 shrank at an annual rate of 7.2pc in the three months to November. Bank loans have fallen from $7.1 trillion (£4.4 trillion) to $6.75 trillion since the end of May.


In the eurozone, M3 has fallen slightly since February. Professor Tim Congdon from International Monetary Research said credit contraction on both sides of the Atlantic has been the steepest since the 1930s, risking a slide into deflation next year.


Banks are tightening credit for two reasons: losses from the crisis, and tougher capital adequacy rules imposed by regulators. Mr Congdon said it is bizarre that the European Central Bank (ECB) seems unwilling to take steps to prevent a monetary implosion in these circumstances.


Optimists say that "portfolio shifts" by investors may have distorted the M3 data. If so, there is little evidence in ECB or Fed reports that they have delved deeply into this issue.


They also argue that falling credit is benign because it reflects lower demand by borrowers, not a lending crunch. Professor Goodhart said this line of argument is "not terribly comforting". Businesses stop taking out loans when terms are punitive. The economy is damaged either way.


Mr Goodhart is best known around the world as the author of "Goodhart's Law", which posits that an indicator ceases to be much use once it becomes a target.


Part timers masking unemployment:


Without part timers, the unemployment would be much higher and those working part time have less income and so the severity of the recession is being masked by part timers.


Record 6.6million 'half-timers' now working reduced hours as bosses struggle to pay full wage


 


Record numbers of employees are working part-time because their bosses cannot afford to pay full-time salaries, official figures revealed yesterday.


There are now 6.6million employees working part-time.


The rising numbers of part-time workers are 'disguising' the jobs crisis because they make unemployment numbers appear less dramatic.


The figures, published by the Office for National Statistics, show unemployment rose modestly by 21,000 to 2.49million in the three months to October. But the situation is actually much worse, experts warned.


The number of full-time employees plunged by 85,000 during the same period, while part-time employees increased by 123,000.


Jealous Microsoft?


Apparently the vanishing Google Earth is a common problem to those using Windows 7 and even Vista 64 bit. There were suggestions like finding the Earth updater and sending it to the desktop but it did not work for me. Then I came upon one suggestion to uninstall and then reinstall Google Earth and it seems to work because I have Google earth back together with my past bookmarks.


What does all this achieve? If it was deliberate, it has caused much unnecessary trouble for many and there will be karma for those involved. There will be those who will be stumped and deprived of Google Earth for many days if not forever. Is it to sabotage Google? Someone said this happened after a Windows update.


Someone on internet said you have to pay $25 to contact Microsoft to tell them of this problem and it reflects how mean Microsoft is.


I found Windows 7 with many features far from desired. The feature of displaying miniature screens of the many files opened eg on Excel is cumbersome, you have to move the mouse a lot to click files on the extremes, I preferred the pictureless compact version but that is only available on the classic view which means that I cannot have my desired Window desktop screen picture, it is just a blank blue screen. Ridiculous, in the past you just select whatever screen and it will be done, now if you want classic view you shall have no screen picture.


Again the window explorer keep displaying cumbersome hard to view icons of video files when I prefer just basic name, date, file size and type but there is no way to tell it to display the way I want it because every time it reverts to the system which I feel is inferior.


Security alerts still freeze the screen such that when I was recording a TV program, it was broken into two halves by the pause, an improvement on the past when the whole recording was lost.


MY LOGIC DIFFERS SIGNIFICANTLY FROM MICROSOFT, I WOULD HAVE DONE QUITE A FEW THINGS DIFFERENTLY FROM MICROSOFT WHO SEEM TO DO THINGS TO IMPRESS RATHER THAN TRULY USEFUL.


I was lucky that I could Google the internet for problem and I found the correct answer after much trouble. Google earth completely disappeared without me authorizing its removal and it can only be found in the uninstall programs directory. After uninstalling and reinstalling, the problem appears resolved (so far). Is this Microsoft up to mischief, purposely sabotaging Google? If this is deliberate there is serious karma for those responsible.


Window Mail too complicated:


Another thing I forgot, the Window Mail is too complicated and there is no send or receive button I can click to refresh my mail, now you must leave it to Win Mail to check mail by itself.


I prefer the Vista Mail and even XP’s Outlook Express is fine, serves its purpose. The latest Win Mail is too complicated and difficult to learn to live with.


Windows Live Mail:


Can mail be dead? By ‘Live’ Windows possibly meant ‘online’. If mail isn’t online what mail can there be?


IN THEIR EMOTIONAL HASTE TO HYPE THINGS UP, THEY GO TO EXTREMES NOT REALIZING WHAT THEY SAY OR DO MAKES NO SENSE. SUFFICE TO SAY ‘WINDOWS MAIL’, THE PERSON WITH FALSE PERCEPTION THINKS THE ‘LIVE’ IS FULL OF MEANING, ADD MORE VALUE WHEN IT IS SILLY, MAKES NO SENSE. NOT JUST HERE BUT IN MANY PLACES, MANY THINGS MICROSOFT DO IS ACTUALLY COUNTER PRODUCTIVE OR USELESS.
