Subverting the dominant paradigm. Mountaineering, yoga, camping, lifting weights, reading and writing. My dog-Mr.Beebs-cocker spaniel extraordinaire. Understanding the patterns of human thought and behavior and how we justify all the stupid shit that we do every day. Waiting for Singularity.

WHY??? I love this quote though: "Neither knowable, knowledge, nor knower am I, formless is my form, I dwell within the senses but they are not my home; Ever serenely balanced, I am neither free nor bound- Consciousness and joy am I, and Bliss is where I am found." -Atma Satkam-Song of the Soul
