We still believe that we are the children of G_d, and the smartest beings walking on the planet, yet we are a bunch of idiots. In fact, we still don’t know basic facts about ourselves and our history. Significant parts have been altered or deleted. You cannot google it, so it doesn’t exist or is untrue.

“Now the Lord God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed. The Lord God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground – trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.” (Genesis 2:8-9)

In the digital age, information is more plentiful than ever, but parsing truth from fiction can be daunting.
According to Wikipedia, rationality is the quality of being guided by or based on reason. In this regard, a person acts rationally if they have a good reason for what they do, or a belief is rational if it is based on solid evidence.
However, apparently, we are programmed to be irrational.

We are sleepwalkers fed with illusions and lies.
Almost any topic you might be interested in, if you dig deep enough, you will find out that everything you knew is the other way around.
Some people believe in evolution, others in creation. What if I tell you both are bullshit?
It would be hilarious if it would not be sad and alarming.
Till 1958, for roughly 2000 years, the dominant theory was based on the Bible’s Genesis creation narrative with no notable alternatives at our disposal.

Sunrise. 8.12.2024. The painting on the wall is called 1793 – MMXXIII, and I painted it last year. Acrylic dye on canvas. There are times for simplicity and times for complexity. Some said this was too crowded, while others said it was too esoteric and they didn’t understand it. It is just a painting. And now a snapshot of a moment. Art generates art. Sometimes, life happens, and we only have to seize the moment.
1793 – MMXXIII. Acrylic on canvas, 30×40 cm (11.8×15.7 inch).
Let me know what you think.
You can purchase the painting for 1,999.00 USD – shipping included.

I will start by quoting (again) Gurdjieff, one of my teachers.
“This is almost all that can be said in general about the ‘stairway’ and about the ‘way,’ because there are different ways. We have spoken of this before. And, for instance, on the fourth way there are special conditions which cannot be on the other ways. Thus the conditions for ascending the stairway on the fourth way are that a man cannot ascend to a higher step until he places another man upon his own step. The other, in his turn, must Read more Tutoring
St. Augustine of Hippo noted that “numbers are the Universal language offered by the deity to humans as confirmation of the truth.”
Mathematics is considered the language of G_d(s) and, therefore, the language of creation. According to the Jewish mystical tradition Read more Let there be light (Yehi ohr)
