An Inroduction To Lessons From Beethoven

Lessons From Beethoven looks at various aspects of Beethoven’s
life -- both his successes and failures -- and extracts seven crucial
lessons from which everyone can learn. This article is highly
condensed; it has been edited down to 4,600 words in order to deliver
these seven lessons without any filler material. What you get are
Beethoven’s lessons in a clear and concise manner so you can
profit immediately.

As the first Local Group publication of the third millennium, Lessons
From Beethoven is different from previous publications. It marks the
beginning of my maturation into a unique writing style that will take
years to develop. This article is the first break from my previous
writings in the sense that there is no mention of Objectivism,
Libertarianism, Neo-Tech, or even philosophy. It looks at the life of
a tremendous creator and extracts seven key ideas from his life.
Those ideas are elaborated and crystallized for instant use in
capturing real prosperity and fulfillment.

Something weird happened while writing this article: most of this
article wrote itself. Only two sections required my conscious thought
and research. The rest flowed automatically from my mind to the
article. In fact, I do not remember writing large sections of this
article. That is strange because I usually have to work hard at
giving birth to articles. But this one flowed automatically. Perhaps
I have automatized the writing process and thus wrote unconsciously.
Or perhaps the time was right for this article. After sixteen years
of college and independent study in the areas of philosophy,
psychology, personal development, and art, this article came together
with little of my conscious direction. Editing, of course, is another
story. That always requires a high level of conscious effort.

While much of this article was written almost effortlessly, there are
two parts that required my conscious thought and research. One of
these is the section on the Illuminati. This section is an
enlightening expose of the Illuminati, its goals, its methods, its
connections, and its influence on Ludwig van Beethoven. It is perhaps
the best snapshot description of the Illuminati: a secret society I
began learning about in 1994. Cool stuff.

The other section that required my conscious attention and research
is the part about aesthetics. This is my favorite section. Anyone who
has graduated from architecture school knows the incredible amount of
art classes that are required. I personally had to take years and
years of art courses: color, light, drafting, drawing, art theory,
art history, and design studios. I also traveled the world to witness
first-hand great works of art including Michelangelo’s David and
Sir Christopher Wren’s St. Paul’s Cathedral -- outstanding
sculpture, architecture, landscapes, and paintings.

While writing this article I surveyed the major artwork throughout
recorded history: paintings, sculpture, music, plays, novels, poetry,
and architecture. Based on my years of study, experience, and
exposure to great art, I extracted the greatest works of art ever
produced on Earth and categorized them for quick reference. And while
assembling that comprehensive list of art I was transported back to
my college days when I studied sublime art.

One of those works is Jacques-Louis David’s The Death of
Socrates. That work strikes me as hard today as it did upon first
encountering it years ago in college. I remember being impressed by
David’s depiction of Socrates in that 1787 oil painting. Even
though Socrates was ordered to drink poison hemlock, I could not help
thinking that he achieved immortality in this painting whereas his
murderers have long been forgotten. This is a beautiful work of art
and is only one of many masterpieces listed in Lessons From Beethoven.

I recommend you read this article so you can:

1. Become familiar with the world’s great works of art
2. Learn more about the secret society called the Illuminati
3. Better understand Beethoven’s life and achievements
4. Acquire the seven lessons from Beethoven’s life for supreme
fulfillment

This article could change your life. I hope you read it now to
experience a new dimension of richness to your world.

Sincerely,
David Hunter
