Greetings !.. (You give me plenty of smiles, from the land of plenty) I
send orange orbs !.. ;)

Plus, amuzing ideas from ptah.

Read the short story.. (Movie 'Charlie was one of my old favs, plus the
book is excellent.)

QUOTE:
The novel opens with an epigraph discouraging people from laughing at
those who are perplexed or weak of vision. The epigraph is taken from
Plato's The Republic, part of which reads:
“ Any one who has common sense will remember that the bewilderments of
the eye are of two kinds, and arise from two causes, either from coming
out of the light or from going into the light, which is true of the
mind's eye, quite as much as of the bodily eye.

Do you love these coincidences.. LOL.

Watch out for more quakes... Sorry. My foot is heavy these days !
Ta,
And Tallie.

Say Hi to slider, and Many thanks for that link to "idiocratie" movie !
Excellent distraction for that day.. I especially liked the ending
narration: Hmmm.. My Ptah brains rebukes.. Heres the helper:

Okay, so maybe Joe didn't exactly
save mankind, but he got the ball
rolling. And that's pretty damn good
for an Army Electrician.

CHEERS !..
BTW.. Gotta love those summarians drinking beer with a straw !.. :)

I am always willing and pleased to listen to *anyone* who opens with
the word "greetings". That welcome pleases me. I'm old school.

I read Flowers for Algernon when I was a teenager, back in the late
60s or thereabouts. I have read it many times since, perhaps up to
half a dozen or so. A recent movie was based on it, you should watch
it, it's very good, Limitless here is the trailer

Well, I'm sure it was based on Algernon but maybe not :)

Anyhow, good to hear from you. No need for me to pass on your well
wishes to Slider, he reads this NG from time to time and will see it
doubtless.

Take care

I can't thank you enough for that trailer. I was hooked.
I rented the movie and saw it twice already in BlueRay on my
nice 50 inch mate one of my little breakthroughs of last
year's additions.. So I do try to take care mate.

What fascinates me is about multiple layers of decoding
the message in there. Because I see many already and all
from imagining what if that 'pill' is taken figuratively
again. A bit like some do with Matrix and their blue pill.

The collective psyche has a tendency to cooperate, just
like that, with minds of spiritual connextions i believe,
and beyond. But I'm getting ahead of myself here.

Watching the movie just for trying to make a survey of
what they 'think' intelligence is about; or what an
average joe like in the other idiocratie movie can become
if he can ever evolve like i prefer to put it.

I won't go into my personal analysis, but I can sure take
some lessons from noticing the general pattern, as much
as pattern recognition comes enhanced. Making links, to
things outside as much as things inside. Like the bewilderement
of the eyes described by Plato, I see.
Interesting point if I then study the relation between
the player, and the observer, bing me. It relates to the
simple effort of betting 'my book, and work done' instead
of bouncing balls of the walls. ;) I find these parallels
useful. I suggest that for the average joe, life presents
a number of substances, we all know as psychedelic or
similar. Now reading the movie like the pill represents
just all the various substances like liquor, or coffee
or even tobacco, and maybe some experiences with THC...
All common these days.

Isn't it said in the movie that figuratively speaking,
the NZT works better if you are smart or creative to start with.
But, there is also that in the movie, the hero starts
by eating well, stop drinking (which makes sense).

At one point he describes NZT as making him more focused,
more motivated !
All that comes from the various experiences we get in life,
about success and failures. There are lessons to take from
all, but what comes at the end of the movie is a clear
depiction of a man that we can presume found a way to
use none of these substances. Or maybe just the smart to do;
Each his own.
.
But there are many people wo got either enleightened some
way or an other; Just observe the Dalai Lama for example,
even if you disagree. You got to love this guy for consistency
and passion. These are powerful messages to be taken,
but, who said we could skip the school of life so easily.
I believe these steps of evolution have to be learned and lived,
to be earned, even if it ultimately teaches about death.
Whis is never the end, but about other realms, and
cosmic intelligence. But may be presuming too much to pretend
it's as simple as that, of course.

I suggest that you check out each of these videos in order,
mate. All what we've been accidentally talking about is
very well complemented there.

I'm glad to be able to share this with you and others.
God's speed then. :) ... No NZT,..

Short version.

Should I apologize that my previous reply was really not up to your
standards; Maybe. But maybe also it was not even digestible enough for
the many. So I have found youtube versions that are okay for English
readers, and keep my own words for a later review.

No worries, I know I can appear to be obscure, and I fully understand
that you are either busy or playfully taking all your time to comment.
If not just polite. Because all you mostly missed how I have foretold
comet Love Joy and its fate. I leave that for historicity, you can
laugh now.
In the meanwhile, I found there more affordable links, that I view as
invaluable.

That's "I am documentary" with an interesting prelude I offer
to introduce somehow the mysterious mind and some clues we have
about it, being more than just a few pounds of weight.
Just considering that a single human DNA cell contains the equivalent
of 186 telephone books of the city of Paris today, and this substance is
contained in 2 millionth of a needle pin head (to be visual)...
Well..
There we can open our eyes to what is more than meet the eyes !

But that suggests that something else might have to be opened.
And this is quite on topic with Castaneda, and intelligent dreams about
all that is invisible to the eyes alone; All that a mouse with all the
Photoreceptor transplants cannot ever contemplate.
.. Let's face it.
This world has yet to evolve the eyes that can see reality as more than
shadows in their cavities.

(Full) 1 hour 13 mins. If not already English speaking,
there is English subtitles.
