TOPIC: HOMINIDAE HOMO SAPIENS |

Posted on Mar.20.2008 @ 10:32AM EDT by asheera
Hominidae Homo Sapiens.
That is the scientific classification of mankind.
Hominidae: Members of the family of Great Apes.
Homo: Mankind.
Sapiens: Thinking.
Loosely translated: Smart Apes.
The question would be, is that absolute? Because in my dreams and meditation I am not always a human. I am not always in this 3d plane of existence.
So is it possible to transcend these human boundaries through dreaming and meditation?
Maybe boundaries are just illusary anyway, if you stop being an ape long enough to give it a try..

My hands are my, teachers. Especially the right one. Just think of it. My right hand moves! My left hands in my jeans pocket. He must be cold, not alone... but al-one.

I always thought I was right handed.
Then I taught my left hand to play darts.
After that it was possible to play the left against the right, or vice versa, without expectation of which would win.
Played for beers, and got drunk either way. |

Try drinking with your feet, the right one first. Unless you already do, then use what's left.

one human boundary is time.
time is man made. it has to do with the spinning of the axis.
if we lived on mars and the planet spun on its axis every 36 hours and cicrulated around the sun every 400 days our time would change.
money is also another man made construct.
this reality is just ONE possible reality.
but we live in THIS reality.
so be it. |

I don't refute reality, that's essentially the textbook definition of insanity in a nutshell.
(Get it: Nut's Hell)
But there is much more to reality than meets the eye, that we Apes can see.
So we must constantly stretch the envelope of our perception, without falling prey to false conclusions. An open mind is essential. Never settling for anything. |

Every conclusion is a false conclusion. Its a dead giveaway.
The airplane was invented in the 1870's, but a motor stong enough to propel it did not yet exist. The inventor consulted the Univ of Paris for help and was denied on the basis that his idea was impossible as no craft heavier than air could ever fly.
After the invention of the combustion engine, the craft did fly in 1906. It was the first to take off independently, without a catapult or ramp to assist in takeoff. |

Nothing changs with out change. In life we need to change as the season change. Welcome to spring. Just change the way you think. And see all what life has to offer to you as a person on this earth. Love sweet love, What the world needs now is love sweet love. 77 Zen ror. |

I only know what it is being now, and try to accept it as it is.
I include in that all that I have seen in visions and meditation, which I consider to be part of reality, not separate from this.
In less than a second it could all be gone, or changed in any way.
And that's okay with me too. |
