a month of I CHING

I have committed myself to a thirty day discovery of the I Ching.

I will share the daily symbols arrived at through meditative thought and will intently post them here to face Infinity.

I will be using I Ching cards published by Marlowe & Company, with text by Chao-Hsiu Chen. Seen HERE.

Undoubtedly I will use some choice lines of text from Chao-Hsiu Chen combined with my own insights. I appreciate her insights and hope this serves as sufficient credit.

Happiness & Fear

Fear takes many shapes and ranges across all emotions. Fear management is crucial to happiness. Much fear is learned therefore it is necessary to put your fears on trial.

Fears embed around discomforting scenarios. Much discomfort surrounds the resonation of love in your life or lack thereof.

The security of love you feel is related to the total amount of fear present in your life.

Insecurities about the love present in any scenario dogs your every emotional step with some measure of fear.

The mystery of life is contained within every living being as a definitive set of parameters in the face of moments devoid of answers. Life is a question begging to be answered by those capable of forming questions.

For any answer there are some limited possible questions that fit the bill.

The face of Infinity is the Universe's Brain setting up the parameters of life as we sentient beings know it.

In an unusual mystery, our logical capacities are set free to choose our path through life, meaning that seemingly unlike a lot of other Earth living beings, humans can go against their natural survival mechanisms.

Let not choice limit the number of possible questions and the possible number of answers will increase.

Underneath the flesh and hidden with the cell walls exists an Imperative permeating the boundaries of life.

Juxtapose the internal Imperative of Life and the exterior lessons in order to find true happiness.

Remember: happiness is found in moderated action!

Man up, the Army's not as well trained as before.

In good news, the army is ramping up its expansion. Bad news is the US Military standards are sub-par because its recruiting efforts aren't going well. READ HERE!

The new push will be: Once in the Military, Stay in the Military.

Hey maybe I should sell the US Government that slogan!

Don't get me wrong, our freedoms should be protected but I think the lower recruitment rates are indicative of failing confidence in the White House' s war.

Sure we all know that Pres. G.W.Bush has stirred the hornet's nest of fundamental radicalism. Don't worry Mr. President, we understand that there are nut jobs out there willing to strap bombs to their flesh just to take a few more infidels out and score some virgin points in Paradise.

Maybe just maybe your old boy ways have got you in way over your head.

No amount of oil money or piece of desert is worth the hell you've invoked. Apparently you don't understand that violence breeds violence. Radicalism dies out with Education; but now instead of having a small group of inter-tribal fighters pissed off about arms deals and oil diplomacy, your "big dollar $tick" mentality has tainted relations with the Muslim faith! (Crowd cheers...not)

Let's be realistic here, its time to take off the training wheels, kick the bird out of the nest. Sending tens of thousands of our young people over there cannot prop up a fledging democracy forever. Withdraw and put that spending money where it belongs on its own soil.

Funny how politicians can justify spending $190 billion dollars on some foreign war while drumming up a debt of over $161K per person in the U.S.

We can't even afford health care (consumer report here) and more latinos and blacks are in jail than in school.

Our health care system is corrupted by high prices while the government moves a large number of troops overseas and leaves us under supported at home.

Bring'em home and shore up our defenses.

Education is the only way to truly eradicate fundamentalist thoughts. As worldwide communication increases, ignorance loses its stranglehold on the mind.

Mr. Ridley Scott's Blade Runner: technically true

Has Mr. Scott got it right?

Technically we are all androids of electrical signal pulses felt through our nervous systems and are birthed with a basic set of innate survival programs.

The adoption of additional programmed responses occurs over timed existence. Is there an origin program?

Keeping topical, the man is quite intelligent and Harrison Ford has always fit the role well. I am looking forward to seeing The Final Cut version.

Wired magazine has a great interview with him HERE.

In the Time of War

Let not our eyes go blind and our ears deaf to the beauty of this nation. Surely we have had our struggles and doubts, yet our freedom continues.

Political corruption is a blight upon the strength and wisdom this nation has fostered since the difficult days of its founding. Beware your freedom is not threatened by malfeasance in the hallowed offices of those set to speak on the people’s behalf.

For far too long have we let those with vested interests arrange the policies of our lives. Burying our educated heads in the sands of time will not bring peace to the war-torn soils of Mama Earth.

Let not the vigor of our youth be mired by war-mongering fools who care more for their padded offices than their constituencies. We have become too dependent on our government and it in turn has grown overburdened and unwieldy.

Was it not the founding fathers vision to create a nation strong, independent and free? We are not free, we are deeply in debts which cannot go on unpaid forever.

Those who don’t believe in change suffer the most for their pride.

Ignorance is not a virtue it’s a virus.

Enough strength remains in our combined freedom to repair this divided nation.
We were not the first inhabitants here, let’s not be the last.

In the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness, peace always trumps war.

Never miss an opportunity for peace.

the strength of your grip

your life fluctuates between action and relaxing. too much of either generates stress around the weaker cells in your body.

too much action stresses the system and too much inaction produces stress on the weaker joints
and bones.

learning to maintain the proper control and release mechanisms is tantamount to freeing the informational flow of energy through cell walls thereby strengthening their resistance to stress.

Your body is a circuit of energy carried out as muscle, tissue, bones, cells, etc...

The maintenance of that circuit's flow is crucial to your body to resist stresses of either external or
internal nature.

Your mind has enough generating power to cause excess focus upon physical processes. Your mind is capable of weakening your system's defenses to the point of illness penetration. Not only can your mind make you sick, it can prolong and worsen systemic illness.

For far too long have individuals chosen to ignore parts of their being as integral to the whole.

You cannot monitor a system's health without devoted study of all its parts. Giving heed to the balance between mind and body, strengthens all your
internal systems.

It should go without saying that a strong body-mind connection would increase your vitality and length your time on Earth in your human form.

you came with focused energy and when you leave that energy will disperse.

constantly push your body and mind's boundaries, never let them stagnate or recede but be certain to give them proper rest.

Learn more, stretch more, flex more. strengthen your grip on life.
