Art and the Context of Society
[youtube width=”500″ height=”400″]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gm9wt9lrDLQ[/youtube] Living in a certain place and time, we tend to think within a certain set of values and act upon them as if they are universal. And we use our critical skills to judge ‘everything’. It is a set of values that is a sum of the whole society, and living by… Continue reading Art and the Context of Society
Time and the Meaning of Life
[youtube width=”500″ height=”400″]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgY2zFxeJDU[/youtube] The first part of the meaning of life, is to build a personality with strong values. Values that are worth defending. Use them to choose a direction, stick with it and make it a succes. Challenge the cultural background and make decisions on personal experience. Keep what works and improve it. Defend… Continue reading Time and the Meaning of Life
Sensuous and Formal Instinct
At the end of part two of the Letters on Aesthetics, Schiller talks about two opposite roads that depart us from our destination. He calls it false roads and says that only the beautiful can bring us back from this twofold departure. In the beginning of part three (letter 12) he talks about those two… Continue reading Sensuous and Formal Instinct
Creativity in the Whole of Life
After I wrote my previous post, I read the chapter ‘Creativity in the whole of life’ for the second time. The chapter from a book called ‘Science, Order and Creativity’. And this time I was even more convinced that it reflects my thoughts on many things that I want to write about on this blog.… Continue reading Creativity in the Whole of Life
Beneath the World of Logic
In my previous post, The meaning of values, I differentiated between 3 types of values and I wanted to see how they relate to the basic model that I use on this blog. But because I already was trying to make my point about the relation between the meaning of life and the meaning of… Continue reading Beneath the World of Logic
Three Subconscious Levels
In Three Levels of the Mind I used three signs, to symbolise the primordial, individual and universal mind. In that context, all three together represent the conscious mind. In my previous post, Subconscious or Psyche, three other signs represent the subconscious mind. That part of all knowledge that is not consciously known, but largely influences… Continue reading Three Subconscious Levels
Individuation Process 3
The zodiac can be divided into three areas. If it is used to describe the human development from birth to death, the signs can be used to mark the age of an individual human being. Of course it is a very abstract way and it can differ from person to person. But in general there… Continue reading Individuation Process 3
Defining Spirit and Soul
Soul is one of those words with many different meanings. Everyone has his own interpretation of that word. Another one of those words is spirit, which is often used where someone else might use soul. And others might not use those words at all, because there is no actual ‘thing’ that can be measured. The… Continue reading Defining Spirit and Soul
Basic Concepts
With my latest model of combining Integral theory and the Zodiac, the model is turned. Now it is the same as in Integral theory (LL is indeed lower left) and now the Zodiac is upside down. I use the words ‘inside’ and ‘outside’ instead of ‘subjective’ and ‘objective’. And instead of ‘impersonal’ I now use… Continue reading Basic Concepts
More than One Spirit
Although spirit and soul are words that have all kinds of different meanings, I just have to use them here because I have no other way of describing the way I see the human development. So in the zodiac I use them for the fire signs (spirit) and the water signs (soul). In the post… Continue reading More than One Spirit
Three Levels of the Mind
The individual mind of the previous post Ignorance and Projection is different from the primordial and the universal mind. In the zodiac there are three basic levels. These levels are seen everywhere and in everything, but here it is used for the individual human development of the mind. ‘Primordial’Â is used for the pre-individual phase… Continue reading Three Levels of the Mind
What versus How
Until now I have mainly been writing about my other blogs for the aboutpage. And re-posting some posts from those blogs to get things started on this blog. The reason is not that I don’t know what I want to write about. The reason is that I don’t know HOW to write it. Do I… Continue reading What versus How
