QUOTE (Tamborine man @ Apr 22 2015, 08:37 PM)  Must humbly disagree. Your Thought and your Will, your memories and your talents, are not subjected to decay and annihilation. This can only happen to your physical body, which is composed of quite different and much bigger particles and molecules of a far different kind. And your fantasies about life after death will live long after you are six feet under. Trouble is, no one will ever be able to know about them after you are gone. Unless of course you write a book about them.  |

Trouble is, no one will ever be able to know about them after you are gone. Unless of course you write a book about them. "Fantasies"!! Jeeez, how cynical you are dear NP1Mike.  Here's what i suggested to the readers down in 'Life after Death': "Curiosità", Leonardo da Vinci's first principle, is irrevocably connected to the well-known schism that took place within the philosophical world around 150 years ago. Philosophers Descartes and Hegel claimed that all true philosophy should start with doubt. Contrary to this, Socrates and Kierkegaard maintained that all true philosophy should start with wonder. With his "curiosità", Da Vinci is obviously totally on the side with Socrates and Kierkegaard as all thinking people should be ......as it would be impossible the find Truth through doubt. Doubt is therefore the bane of mankind. Don't go there. Wonder wonderfully instead. Come on NP1Mike, why not give it a try!  Cheers PS! The "book'' has already been written - close to 100 years ago!

Led Zeppelin.
"...... there's feeling I get when I look to the west and my spirit is crying for leaving In my Thoughts I'm sick .... ... Ooh it makes me wonder .... Ooh, it really makes me wonder .... ... There walks a Lady we all know who shines white light and wants to show how everything still turns to gold and if you listen very hard the Truth will come to you at last when all are one and one is all to be a rock and not a roll." They could have been a little bit 'out there' ......perhaps!! Cheers This post has been edited by Tamborine man: Apr 25 2015, 06:36 AM |

A small group of Aboriginals once tried to teach me how to say the word in their language. After quite a few tries, think i finally got it - at least it felt that way! The first 8 minutes is all Uluru: Cheers This post has been edited by Tamborine man: Apr 27 2015, 09:01 PM |

And we arrogant 'white men': pretend we are able to tell the "people" who have lived with and respected these magnificent formations how to live life! I am very fortunate to live close to a place in South Australia where the "people" mined ochre from the cliffs on the shore of what we have called Gulf Snt Vincent. To take a walk there and allow the spirit of the area to fill my being, is such a connection to our existence: this is where we are: literally on a "very large rock": spinning majestically in the universe.
