"Igitur qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum."
19. Everyday Life Is the Path
Joshu asked Nansen: "What is the path?"
Nansen said: "Everyday life is the path."
Joshu asked: "Can it be studied?"
Nansen said: "If you try to study, you will be far away from it."
Joshu asked: "If I do not study, how can I know it is the path?"
Nansen said: "The path does not belong to the perception world, neither does it belong to the nonperception world. Cognition is a delusion and noncognition is senseless. If you want to reach the true path beyond doubt, place yourself in the same freedom as sky. You name it neither good nor not-good."
At these words Joshu was enlightened.
Mumon's comment: Nansen could melt Joshu's frozen doubts at once when Joshu asked his questions. I doubt though if Joshu reached the point that Nansen did. He needed thirty more years of study.
In spring, hundreds of flowers; in autumn, a harvest moon;
In summer, a refreshing breeze; in winter, snow will accompany you.
If useless things do not hang in your mind,
Any season is a good season for you.
Innumerable changes of moods are yours, and they are uncontrolled by you. If you
knew their origin, you would be able to dominate them. If you cannot localize your
own changes, how can you localize that which formed you?
(Rumi, Fihi Ma Fihi)
Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation
--Oscar Wilde
Cui nun voli pagari, s'assuggetta ad ogni pattu.
"He who knows himself knows God." or the Muhammadans of the phrase, "I take refuge in God"
Ghazzali says, in the Ihya-ul-ulum. "Satan laughs at such pious ejaculations. Those who utter them are like a man who should meet a lion in a desert, while there is a fort at no great distance, and when he sees the evil beast, should stand exclaiming, 'I take refuge in that fortress,' without moving a step towards it. What will such an ejaculation profit him? In the same way the mere exclamation, 'I take refuge in God,' will not protect thee from the terrors of His judgment unless thou really take refuge in Him."
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions,
even though they have been held in honor
for many generations and in diverse places.
Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it.
Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past.
Do not believe what you yourself have imagined,
persuading yourself that a God inspires you.
Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests.
After examination, believe what you yourself have tested
and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

Utopia of KNOWLEDGE and EXPERIENCE
Theology – Human enlightenment experience – There is nothing but consciousness, all else is a product of intelligence, combine consciousness with intelligence and you have wisdom. Wisdom produces greater understanding and greater need for understanding. The more you know the more you understand you know nothing.
Government – Exclusive (You want power, you don’t get it) Independent (Without loyalty but to the race of human, experience of consciousness, and beings of consciousness in all forms it takes) Democratic (from the local level up, never to hold a lower or same position, never to make a life of power) Triad (three, power at the top should never rest with any less than three)
Economy – Creative Knowledge (The NEW) consumption of knowledge, the pursue of knowledge in the form of technology to pursue knowledge. What is the true experience of standing upon the ice fields of Uropia as the three more moons of Jupiter rise from the southeast? The exploration of ideas, experiences, and knowledge, in a non-competitive capitalist society where the lack of marketing makes the only sales point the word of mouth with a intergraded sales/experience reports from every owner. High access to knowledge and knowledge holders produces infinite boosts to technological advances, as technology increases, a rate of advancement in the human experience and ability (Capitalist Economy) gradual but expodentionally till all you have to do is a little work and see the visions of the universe. This would be possible for you are building on the shoulders of your parents, not just playing in their shadows.
Industry – Experimental Universal Experience Creation (based in the creation of new technology to increase the knowledge and experience of every being on earth, providing an enlightening experience of discovery for every incarnation. (I do not want to be the eternal; I strive to be honored with the experience and knowledge, to be able to experience being in eternal the smallest of ways) New technology and innovation drive the economy that leads to a greater experience/comfort increase of humanity throughout history and in pure form all having access to all, the power of which will create a non- currency as technology will make the consumer babble society disappear for a renown and experienced knowledge consume. Consume the renown by creating the next great jump in that area, and only till another is made. At first, years, months, days, and then hours and maybe even seconds, only now does it take tens of decades to advance.
Laws – Responsibility for the actions of thane self, help when you can and see others in need. Group Values on a local basis, diffuse at the world level to bare basics minimalist in nature and drive to be non-existent. RESPONSIBILITY to yourself and your fellow man, you create your local reality and when your reach is global you change things globally, when you reach to humanity you change the universe, but humanity must want to change. Honor is doing what is right without having to be forced to.
Military – Every citizen is responsible for the defense of themselves, others, and all. “Technology Evolved†(those that have produce the greatest advances in Religion of Science, Art of engineering, Compassion of the Gene, Painting of Being Evolving, Dance of Words and the Music of Math) are the ones that understand the destructive potent ional of top of the line and hence use restraint will control the need for Liberations when Oppression, Intolerance, Tyranny, and Self Destruction rear its ugly head. There are those of and part of a warrior class mercenaries are encouraged in all aspects of the civilization for they are the risk takers, the life takers. This warrior class needs to be raised for they are the pious, the evil, merciful, yet tyrannical, tolerant, yet judgmental, all powerful, yet tied at the wrists to all causes. Once the general public has created heroes of the warrior class, the warrior class obediently obligate to bent knee to the populace, honor demands it.
Liberty – Enlightened self research- Looking through the experience of life and understanding that freedom, is Liberty, is eternal. You must understand when you hurt others and are being destructive even to self, that has a detriment to others well being, this lowers the experience for all. Once a limitless technological boom frees the world from the worry of a consumer society to contemplate such things as this, which will increase the physiogicly changes for evolution, increasing the use of the brain will force development of denser grey matter in all humans, not just the highly educated.
Technology – Infinite as the eternal source of all, as the economy is based on the pursuing of technology to increase the knowledge and experience of all. Terraforming the universe of this experience; with the sound of one person laughing at himself. As the driving force of efforts throughout the world, importance is place heavily on education and every generation will learn basics at a earlier and earlier age, algebra in the second grade, this will have the effect of allowing the generation to cope with the effects of constant change in technology, and the ability to teach “all†the math you need for masters in physics in one year of fourth grade as competitive schools are the cut throat business and wheelers and dealers. Technology of the conscious experience can only be described the greatest discovery of all time. Human and conscious experience is the only important technology, material things are there to give us this experience, are created by us, but fleeting images in the end.
Arts – All of the total expansive universe is a canvas You are yet to even see Let alone know What inspiration you have yet To experience in a small corner of realty Intragration of arts and technological design Produce the useful art that is extradenary Simple beautiful within the workings of universe Painting on the night sky With a dance of object Blazing though upper atmosphere Producing a show seen by half the world Beauty can just be beautiful But when it is functionally gorgeous There is nothing more to be seen. But the stars falling to earth Cleaning the space junk For new universal phyics Paving the way To Realities unthought of And the microbe grows up
Benefits – Work is only work because that is the way it has been, but it isn’t what it can be. Unencumbered experience that produces the greatest sense of all that corpal consciousness has to offer in knowledge and base conscious experience. Finding pleasure in all of reality and not playing with the dirt for the sake of playing with dirt. That is the true work of the soul, not the mindless prattle. Create
Drawbacks – Use and increase of Mammalian brain tissues, will expedite dropping of the media and media addiction for knowledge based social interaction and community experiences. Interchange the word media with formless entertainment, smoke and mirrors creation, and lying creations. Understanding emotions as a perk of life and should not rule as a tyrant of previous needs and experiences, enjoy even the worst times are getting better. GROW UP Evolve already."
