I can't believe that we have reached the end of everything. The red dust is frightening. The carbon dioxide is real. Water is expensive. Bio-tech has created as many problems as it has fixed, but we're here, we're alive, we're the human race, we have survived wars and terrorism and scarcity and global famine, and we have made it back from the brink, not once but many times. History is not a suicide note - it's a record of our survival.

Razmišljam i ja ponekad o svom poreklu, naravno, ali pritom ne vidim bogomolje, simbole, ni šarene pantljike folklora kojima se kite konji Pripadnosti... (...)
Razmišljam i ja ponekad o svom poreklu, naravno, ali naše Porodično Stablo vidim samo kao mladicu na obodu Velike Šume...
Zamrznem tako likove na tajnoj večeri u bezimenoj podkarpatskoj gostionici, Sluge i Gospodare, Silne i Prepadnute, Lukave, Priglupe, Sretne...
I mislim: koji je moj? Čiji sam ja to? Na talasima čije krvi penušaju mehurići moje embrionske duše, i u čijim se venama, a da grešan ni ne sluti, koprcaju kao punoglavci moja čula i tkiva, moj fosforni skelet, i usplahireno jato mladeža?
Ali ne brinem puno o tome da li je Taj bio Srbin, Tatarin, Kozak?
Ni da li se krstio, klanjao, pisao s leva na desno?
Ne...
Brinem jedino da nije bio podlac?
Palikuća?
Bratoubica?
Ili je neko ko je sekao srce na kriške, da bude za sve...
Neko kog su uvek pitali kad o čemu treba presuditi...
I neko kome se i Bog obradovao kao dragom rođaku...
Kada mu je umoran zakucao na Nebo...

Sorrow Lies in Beauty.
The thunder rolls across the sky,
Raindrops falling,
The sky weeps.
The sky weeps for the beauty of the earth,
And for the sorrow that it is ruined.
The wind howls,
A chorus of voices,
Screaming with the sky,
The wind howls in anguish,
That the earth is lost.
The tree whispers,
Begging the wind to rustle its leaves,
Asking the sky to shed its tears,
To nurture it’s growth.
The tree whispers its losses.
The sun glares,
Silent and furious,
Scorching the earth without regard,
For the earth is lost.
The sun burns in fury.
The earth is grateful,
Drinking the tears of the sky,
Calming the howling wind,
Giving the tree a home,
Forgiving the sun.
The earth is oblivious.

Entitlement is simply the belief that you deserve something. Which is great. The hard part is, you'd better make sure you deserve it. So, how did I make sure that I deserved it?
To answer that, I would like to quote from the Twitter bio of one of my favorite people, Kevin Hart. It reads:
My name is Kevin Hart and I WORK HARD!!! That pretty much sums me up!!! Everybody Wants To Be Famous But Nobody Wants To Do The Work!

A bilo je to itekako dražesno, smatrala je Mary. Nekako je humanije, promatrati različite rukopise, različite tinte, različite načine na koje bi netko nekad nešto krivo napisao. Bio je to vizualni ekvivalent razgovora, svatko bi u zapisu ostavio nešto sebi svojstveno, unikatno - za razliku od unosa uvijek istih, provjerenih natipkanih riječi.
Međutim, to je donekle otežavalo traženje neke određene bilješke ili napomene. S druge strane, iščitavanje svega od početka moglo bi vam pomoći da primijetite nešto što vam je možda ranije promaknulo.

Pjesnik čiji nas stihovi ushićuju možda je bio tužan usamljenik a glazbenik neki sjetan sanjar, ali i tada njegovo djelo dijeli vedrinu bogova i zvijezda. Ono što nam umjetnik daje, to više nije njegov mrak, njegova patnja ili tjeskoba, to je kaplja čišste svjetlosti, vječite vedrine. Kad i cijeli narodi i jezici pokušavaju doprijeti do dubine svijeta, u mitovima, kozmologiji i raznim religijama, ono posljednje i najviše što mogu dostići, to je ta vedrina. Sjećas li se starih Indijaca, naš je stari waldzellski učitelj jednom o njima pričao: svijt patnje, razmišljanja, pokore, askeze; ali posljednja velika otkrića njegova duha bila su svijetla i vedra, vedar je smješak onih koji su preboljeli svijet i smješak Buddhe, vedri su likovi njegove dubokoumne mitologije.

As we'll see throughout this book, nature's problem-solving strategies offer immense opportunities for wealth creation in a new economy. Whether the shatter-resistant ceramics of an abalone shell, the superior drag resistance demonstrated by seaweeds, or the pure combustion of plant photosynthesis, impacted industries range from construction to transportation to medicine to software. Nature's paradigm does what human technology tries to do-and does it sustainably without stripping out the base resources that create wealth. So what's preventing us from more rapid adoption of bio-inspired design?

From the Greek bios, meaning "life," and mimesis, "to imitate," the term biomimicry was first coined in 1997 by Janine Benyus, the gifted naturalist, educator, and author of the landmark book Biomimicry. But biomimicry isn't new. Humans have copied nature for millenia, with varying degrees of accuracy and understanding.

To je ono čemu zamjeram u vašem kozmopolitizmu. Kada kažete kako želite da se svi ljudi ujedine, zapravo mislite kako želite da se svi narodi ujedine kako bi naučili vještine vaših ljudi. Ako Arap beduin ne zna čitati, engleski misionar ili učitelj mora biti poslan da ga nauči čitati, ali nitko nikada ne kaže, 'Taj učitelj ne zna jahati na devi; hajmo platiti beduinu da ga nauči.' Kažete da će vaša civilizacija uključiti sve talente. Hoće li? Želite li stvarno reći, kako ćete do onoga trenutka kada Eskim nauči glasati za okružno vijeće, vi naučiti probosti morža kopljem? Vraćam se primjeru koji sam već spomenuo. U Nikaragvi smo imali način za lovljenje divljih konja – vezanjem prednjih nogu lasom – koji je navodno bio najbolji način u Južnoj Americi. Ako ćete uključiti sve talente, odite i učinite to. Ako nećete, dozvolite mi da kažem što sam oduvijek govorio, kako je iz svijeta nešto nestalo kada je Nikaragva civilizirana.

Svatko mora ostaviti nešto kad umre, rekao je moj djed. Dijete ili knjigu ili sliku ili kuću ili sagrađen zid ili izrađen par cipela. Ili zasađen vrt. Nešto što je tvoja ruka dodirnula na neki način, da tvoja duša ima kamo otići kad umreš, i kad ljudi pogledaju to stablo ili taj cvijet koji si posadio, ti ćeš biti ondje. Nije važno što napraviš, glavno da promijeniš nešto iz stanja kakvo je bilo prije nego što si to dotaknuo u nešto što će biti nalik tebi nakon što makneš ruke. Razliku između čovjeka koji samo kosi travu i vrtlara upravo je u dodiru , rekao je. Kosac kao da uopće nije bio ondje, vrtlar će ondje biti cijeli život.

Halfway through the day, Megan started dicking around on the internet. She
made her browser window as small as she could, paused for a second, and then
looked up “Carrie Wilkins.” She found Carrie’s website, and on it, this bio:
Hi, my name’s Carrie. I’m 26. I make things. I paint and I write, but mostly I
design. I like to make things beautiful, or creative. I make my own food and I’m
trying to grow my own beets. A lot of people around me seem unhappy and I
don’t understand why. I freelance because I know I’d go insane if I couldn’t
make my own schedule—I believe variety is the zest of life. I know I want a dog
someday soon, and sometimes I make lunch at 3 a.m.
I believe in the power of collaboration, and I’d love to work with you!
What a total asshole. What does she have, some kind of a pact with Satan?
The picture next to Carrie’s bio had some kind of heavy filter on it that made
it look vintage, and she had a friendly but aloof look on her face. She was
flanked on both sides by plants and was wearing an oxford shirt with fancy
shorts and had a cool necklace. It was an outfit, for sure, like all of Carrie’s
clothes were outfits, which Megan always thought of as outdated or something
only children did.
The website linked to a blog, which was mostly photos of Carrie doing
different things. It didn’t take too long to find the picture of her with the llama
with a caption about how she and her boss got it from a homeless guy.
And then just products. Pictures and pictures of products, and then little
captions about how the products inspired her.
Motherfucker, thought Megan. She doesn’t get it at all. It was like looking at
an ad for deodorant or laundry soap that made you feel smelly and like you’d
been doing something wrong that the person in the ad had already figured out,
but since it was an ad, there was no real way to smell the person and judge for
yourself whether or not the person stank, and that was what she hated, hated,
hated most of all.
I make things, gee-wow. You think you’re an artist? Do you really thing this
blog is a representation of art, that great universalizer? That great transmigrator?
This isolating schlock that makes me feel like I have to buy into you and your
formula for happiness? Work as a freelance designer, grow beets, travel, have
lots of people who like you, and above all have funsies!
“Everything okay?” asked Jillian.
“Yeah, what?”
“Breathing kind of heavy over there, just making sure you were okay and
everything.”
“Oh, uh-huh, I’m fine,” said Megan.
“It’s not . . . something I’m doing, is it?”
“What? No. No, I’m fine,” said Megan.
How could someone not understand that other people could be unhappy?
What kind of callous, horrible bullshit was that to say to a bunch of twenty-yearolds, particularly, when this was the time in life when things were even more
acutely painful than they were in high school, that nightmare fuck, because now
there were actual stakes and everyone was coming to grips with the fact that
they’re going to die and that life might be empty and unrewarding. Why even
bring it up? Why even make it part of your mini-bio?

What is inspiration? The word “inspire” comes from the Latin word “inspirare,” which means “to breathe upon or to breathe into.” Breath is life. To inspire, therefore, is to breathe life into. Inspiration breathes life into us. Success may be “ninety-nine percent perspiration” and only one percent inspiration. But remember this: It is the one percent inspiration that starts your engines. It is that one percent that ignites the dormant fires within you. Once you have inspired yourself, then you must perspire. Perspire profusely in body and mind, and keep the fires of inspiration burning. If you don’t do that, then those burning fires will become dormant ashes forever

When you're at your wit's end, when nothing seems to work, take a step back, acquire more knowledge, and attack the problem from a different angle.

Živio je nagnut nad požutjeljim knjigama istorije. Za ovog čudnog čoveka, tad sam mu zavidio na tome, kao da je postojalo samo vrijeme koje je prošlo, pa i ovo je vrijeme je samo vrijeme koje će proći. Rijetko je ko bio tako srećno isključen iz života kao on. Godinama je lutao po Istoku, tragajući u čuvenim bibliotekama za istorijskim djelima, i vratio se u svoj rodni kraj, sa velikim zavežljajem knjiga, siromašan a bogat, pun znanja koje nikome nije trebalo, osim njemu. Iz njega je izlazilo znanje kao reka, kao potop, zatrpavala su te imena, zbivanja, strah te hvatao od gužve što je u tom čovjeku živjela kao da sad postoji, kao da to nisu aveti i sjenke već živi ljudi koji neprestano djeluju, u nekoj strašnoj vječnosti postojanja.

Tek nakon ove nesreće Džahan je shvatio da tajna njegovoga majstora ne poćiva ni u njegovoj strogosti - jer on nije bio strog, niti u neuništivosti - jer nije bio neuništiv, nego u njegovoj sposobnosti da prihvati promjene i nevolje, da im se prilagodi i sebe izgradi, ponovno i ponovno, iz ruševina. Ako je Džahan bio od drveta, Davud od metala, Nikola od kamena, a Jusuf od stakla, Sinan je bio od tekuće vode. A kada nešto, bilo što, zapriječi njegov tok, proteći će ispod, okolo, iznad, gdje god može; naći će put kroz pukotine i ploviti dalje.

Short and long bios Contracts Cover page and introduction to a proposal Engagement letter Quick blurb/elevator speech—what do you do? What are your focus areas? Letters of recommendation Logo and company graphic art Nondisclosure agreements Presentations of all sorts Progress reports Proposals and statements of work Publications list Marketing trifold (less important now than in the past) Work programs and check-off lists Examples of frequently requested spreadsheets. For example, you may be in a business that uses six sigma for quality control. Graphs, statistical reports, and so on can typically be modified quickly from one client to the next. Unless you are in the graphic arts or publications business itself, there is no need to be original. Inspiring ideas permeate the Internet.

Billy’s love for the man who betrayed his trust remained strong. As with many other traumas he had experienced in leading, he did not let natural reactions of self-pity or anger control his responses.

When you decide to become sanyasi, everyday drinking neem juice is compulsory because it removes all parasites from your bio memory and muscle memory which triggers lusty, fantasy visualization.
”
”
Paramahamsa Nithyananda
“
If you drink neem juice everyday, all the parasites in your muscle memory and bio memory will be cleansed. Even when the sex hormones are pumped into your body, it just manifests an intense devotion, sweetest secret sacred sentiment. It does not trigger violent, lusty, uncontrollable, agitating, life-negative, suicidal, wild, self-destructive visualization or patterns.

Paramahamsa Nithyananda
“

Your muscle memory and bio memory will be so pure / clean. You will not fall for your tiredness / boredom / irritating parasites that trigger you.

These three words first:
1) muscle memory 2) bio memory 3) bio energy all your day-to-day habits like morning you wake up and do yoga or sip a cup of coffee and the kind of food you eat - all your behaviours, habits and actions form your muscle memory. your muscles keep the memory of all your actions - good or bad, right or wrong. if you create the right muscle memory, it helps you to manifest a beautiful right life.
If you build wrong muscle memory, it makes you manifest bad life.end of the day, your life you are living is just the expressions of muscle memories you built. second is, bio memory. It is all the opinions, ideas, cognitions, powerful conclusions about yourself and your life, god, people, about everything. the conclusions you carry, powerful cognitions you carry is called bio memory.
Bio memory is about how you believe yourself, what kind of idea you carry about yourself and how it is impacted by others’ belief about you, how others treat you and how that impacts you.
All your opinions, ideas, cognitions, powerful conclusions about you, about others, about guru, about god, about the world, about the universe - all these put together is bio memory.

Paramahamsa Nithyananda

The consciousness which is manifesting in your body, its experience about itself is called bio energy. How due to the continuous impact of your bio memory and muscle memory your experience about you, how your consciousness experiences itself, how you feel about you, your core, due to the total impact of your muscle memory and bio memory, that is called bio energy.
Actually, the bioenergy only takes multiple births. from this body, when you move to the next body, your bioenergy only is carried. It is the core software coding of your existence.
Muscle memory is the memory of all your day-to-day habits, lifestyle - the food you like or everything based on your actions.Every belief you carry, powerful cognitions, powerful conclusions you carry - that is bio memory. The core of you - the “you”, the “I” in you, how it experiences itself due to the continuous impact of muscle memory and bio memory on you, that is called bio energy.

The parasite sitting inside your bio energy. This parasite can destroy you lifes after lifes after lifes and make you go round in the same rut. Same kind of father-mother attachment problem lands in the same kinds of mess and you die and pick up the same things and the same rut will go on and on and on. You are stuck but not breaking out.
Only one thing can detox you from all the parasites sitting in your bio energy: ‘living around the master’. You need to see him constantly: how his muscle memory is working, how his bio memory is working, how his bio energy is working. Guru seva is the only way the parasites in the bio energy will be detoxed. Guru seva is the most direct method of melting down all the parasites sitting inside your bio energy.
Nothing else can do it because bio energy level means constantly your bio energy needs to be cleansed, detoxed, opened, and the guru’s initiation, shaktipada, needs to be poured inside you, and you need to go on experiencing detox. You need to be detoxed continuously. Because the parasites are sitting inside your bio energy which you collected for many janmas, multiple births, you won’t get rid of it just like that in one or two days.

“
I can give you a methodology, alternative for the guru seva, because unfortunately, most of you can’t live around me at least as on now. Have the atma murti. Live with it whole day. When you wake up, brush your teeth. When you eat food, give him food. Before you go to bed, put him to bed. Living with him can detox all the parasites sitting in your bio energy.You can get rid of all those parasites, detox your bio energy through living with atma murti.
Atma murti is your personal deity of the guru, personal intimate version of the guru in the form of deity.

Stojim na žalu i osećam kako deo moje energije izgara, kako se krnjim, gurim i smanjujem, i kako mi se opet briše i uzima dan, dan moga trajanja, koji nije bio i dan moga života.
