from: The Alchemist's Handbook- FRATER ALBERTUS

Hermetic philosophers have taught the very same fundamentals
even as philosophers of the future will do, for that which constitutes
truth will remain truth. It cannot be changed. But the theories of men
and their opinions, which are incorrectly given by some as truth, are
subject to change. Because one calls himself a philosopher does not
necessarilv make him such. Only he is a philosopher who has a sincere
love for the wisdom that manifests universally and who strives as
sincerely to apply it in his daily life. Wisdom is acquired through
righteous living. It is understanding applied. The acquisition of a
degree of Doctor of Philosophy, as conferred upon graduates in
institutions of higher learning, does not make one a philosopher, as
much as those in possession of such a degree may believe in their
right to such a title.
To be acquainted with the history of philosophy, the lives and
teachings of those called philosophers, is only a study and knowledge
of their universal concepts and what has been derived from them.
To be a philosopher, therefore, means to understand and live according
to that understanding, knowing well that only by giving unhesitatingly
and unselfishly will our belief in mankind be justified. When this
has been realized, then only will Alchemy become something real.
Transmutation always takes place on a higher plane, and in the physi-
cal world laws cannot be adhered to or violated without producing
karmic manifestations. Beneficial karma, if it is permissible to use a
term, because karma is impartial, is brought about by harmonious
applications of natural laws. These natural laws must be adhered to if,
according to predestined results, we wish to obtain what nature has
decreed.

Concupiscence - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Concupiscence (from the Latin: con-, with + cupi, cupid - desire + -escere - suffix denoting beginning of a process or state) is often defined as an ardent, usually sensual, longing ( ie MELANCHOLY / SEX WAX ).[1] The concept is most commonly encountered in Christian theology, where it also receives the name "Fomes peccati", as the selfish human desire for an object, person, or experience.[2] For Christians, concupiscence refers to what they understand as the orientation, inclination or innate tendency of human beings to long for fleshly appetites, often associated with a desire to do things which are proscribed.

There are nine occurrences of concupiscence in the Douay-Rheims Bible[3] and three occurrences in the King James Bible.[4] It is also one of the English translations of the Koine Greek epithumia (ἐπιθυμία),[5] which occurs 38 times in the New Testament

Surprising connections between our well-being and giving, getting, and gratitude

We all know that getting a good night's sleep is good for our general health and well-being. But new research is highlighting a more surprising benefit of good sleep: more feelings of gratitude for relationships.

Read more at:

A plethora of research highlights the importance of getting a good night's sleep for physical and psychological well-being, yet in our society, people still seem to take pride in needing, and getting, little sleep," says Amie Gordon of the University of California, Berkeley. "And in the past, research has shown that gratitude promotes good sleep, but our research looks at the link in the other direction and, to our knowledge, is the first to show that everyday experiences of poor sleep are negatively associated with gratitude toward others – an important emotion that helps form and maintain close social bonds." Social psychologists are increasingly finding that "prosocial" behavior – including expressing gratitude and giving to others – is key to our psychological well-being. Even how we choose to spend our money on purchases affects our health and happiness. And children develop specific ways to help others from a very young age. Gordon and other researchers will be presenting some of these latest findings at the Society for Personality and Social Psychology (SPSP) annual meeting today in New Orleans.

Runes Fa, Dorn and Os + Laguz – Rune Meaning | Rune Secrets

The Rune Fa

We generally study Fa in its form with the two arms upwards. Yet, when delving into the Rune Fa, sometimes we find another shape of this Rune, where the right arm protrudes from the very bottom of the vertical line, and the left arm emerges from the middle. This is another modification of this Rune; it resembles the shape of the letter ש Shin of the Hebrew alphabet. The letter Shin symbolizes fire. When we see the letter Shin, we see the symbol of fire. In Hebrew , in order to write the word fire, we use two letters: Aleph and Shin, which together are pronounced Esh. The letter Aleph symbolizes air, and the letter Shin is fire. It is very significant that in order to write fire in Hebrew , you use these two letters, which symbolize air and fire respectively. In many lectures, we have explained that the air—Aleph, whose shape symbolizes the Holy Trinity—that enters through our nostrils, represents the three aspects of the Akashic force, or the Akashic fire, which is Kether, Chokmah, Binah / Father, Son, Holy Spirit; they enters through the nose and in the lungs, they purify the Shin, which is in the blood, the fire of our organism. This is why air and fire (Esh) Aleph and Shin, are always together in our blood. So, from this point of view, we say that indeed fire has air within, or in other words, Shin contains Aleph within. This is why, when we address the Rune Fa, we are also addressing the letter Aleph, which is the symbol of air. Fire and air are above, water and earth are below.

Abracadabra - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Abracadabra is an incantation used as a magic word in stage magic tricks, and historically was believed to have healing powers when inscribed on an amulet. The word is thought to have its origin in the Aramaic language, but numerous, conflicting folk etymologies are associated with it.

Probably derived either from Hebrew or Aramaic language "Avra Kadavrai" (אברא כדברי) meaning "I will create as my words".[5]

Romance or romantic usually refers to Romance (love), love emphasizing emotion over libido.

It is imagination that has taught man the moral sense of color, of contour, of sound and of scent. It created, in the beginning of the world, analogy and metaphor. It disassembles creation, and with materials gathered and arranged by rules whose origin is only to be found in the very depths of the soul, it creates a new world, it produces the sensation of the new. As it has created the world (this can be said, I believe, even in the religious sense), it is just that it should govern it.

In chess, the king (♔, ♚) is the most important piece. The object of the game is to trap the opponent's king so that its escape is not possible (checkmate). If a player's king is threatened with capture, it is said to be in check, and the player must remove the threat of capture on the next move. If this cannot be done, the king is said to be in checkmate. Although the king is the most important piece, it is usually the weakest piece in the game until a later phase, the endgame.

'Quadruple helix' DNA discovered in human cells

In 1953, Cambridge researchers Watson and Crick published a paper describing the interweaving 'double helix' DNA structure - the chemical code for all life. Now, in the year of that scientific landmark's 60th Anniversary, Cambridge researchers have published a paper proving that four-stranded 'quadruple helix' DNA structures - known as G-quadruplexes - also exist within the human genome. They form in regions of DNA that are rich in the building block guanine, usually abbreviated to 'G'.



heehee

Read more at:

Physical studies over the last couple of decades had shown that quadruplex DNA can form in vitro - in the 'test tube', but the structure was considered to be a curiosity rather than a feature found in nature. The researchers now know for the first time that they actually form in the DNA of human cells.

"This research further highlights the potential for exploiting these unusual DNA structures to beat cancer – the next part of this pipeline is to figure out how to target them in tumour cells," said Dr Julie Sharp, senior science information manager at Cancer Research UK.

"It's been sixty years since its structure was solved but work like this shows us that the story of DNA continues to twist and turn."

:

"There is a lot we don't know yet. One thought is that these quadruplex structures might be a bit of a nuisance during DNA replication - like knots or tangles that form. "Did they evolve for a function? It's a philosophical question as to whether they are there by design or not - but they exist and nature has to deal with them. Maybe by targeting them we are contributing to the disruption they cause." The study showed that if an inhibitor is used to block DNA replication, quadruplex levels go down - proving the idea that DNA is dynamic, with structures constantly being formed and unformed. The researchers also previously found that an overactive gene with higher levels of Quadruplex DNA is more vulnerable to external interference.

Brainwave training boosts network for cognitive control and affects mind-wandering

October 24, 2012 in Neuroscience

A breakthrough study conducted in Canada has found that training of the well-known brainwave in humans, the alpha rhythm, enhances a brain network responsible for cognitive-control. The training technique, termed neurofeedback, is being considered as a promising new method for restoring brain function in mental disorders. Using several neuroimaging methods, a team of researchers at the Western University and the Lawson Health Research Institute have now uncovered that functional changes within a key brain network occur directly after a 30-minute session of noninvasive, neural-based training. Dysfunction of this cognitive-control network has previously been implicated in a range of brain disorders including attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, schizophrenia, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder.

During neurofeedback, users learn to control their own brain activity with the help of a brain-computer interface. In the simplest case, this consists of a computer that records brainwaves through surface sensors on the scalp, known as an EEG (electroencephalogram). The system is then able to process and simultaneously represent a user's real-time brain activity, displayed from moment-to-moment during a training game on a computer. This setup is known as a neurofeedback loop, because information of brain activity is continually fed-back to a user reflecting their level of control. Such real-time feedback allows users to reproduce distinct brain states under physiologically-normal conditions, promising to be an innovative way to foster brain changes without adverse effects. This is possible because of neuroplasticity, a natural property of the brain that enables it to reorganise after continual training, resulting from adjustments to its own activity.

AntenneX - THE CROSSED-FIELD-ANTENNA

MonsieurM,

There is an antenna I came across searching 5 years ago called the "X Antenna". I had pulled it down as a file but with loss of a hard drive over the years and repeatedly looking thorough all the files i have, I have not been able to locate it and thought it may be appropriate on this thread to describe it and maybe someone would know of it or have access to search information related to this antenna as it sure is difficult to get a line on it from within the United States.

Two brothers that were repairmen for commercial radio stations.
They would go out and repair radio antennas and equipment.
They came up with an antenna they called the "X Antenna" as it was in the configuration of an "X".
From what I remember, a 5,000 watt transmission would be like putting out a 50,000 transmission using this special "X Antenna".

Thanks for any help locating this,

8th century gamma ray burst irradiated the Earth, study finds

(Phys.org)—A nearby short duration gamma-ray burst may be the cause of an intense blast of high-energy radiation that hit the Earth in the 8th century, according to new research led by astronomers Valeri Hambaryan and Ralph Neuhӓuser. The two scientists, based at the Astrophysics Institute of the University of Jena in Germany, publish their results in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.

Read more at:

In 2012 scientist Fusa Miyake announced the detection of high levels of the isotope Carbon-14 and Beryllium-10 in tree rings formed in 775 CE, suggesting that a burst of radiation struck the Earth in the year 774 or 775. Carbon-14 and Beryllium-10 form when radiation from space collides with nitrogen atoms, which then decay to these heavier forms of carbon and beryllium. The earlier research ruled out the nearby explosion of a massive star (a supernova) as nothing was recorded in observations at the time and no remnant has been found.

Dr Neuhӓuser comments: "If the gamma ray burst had been much closer to the Earth it would have caused significant harm to the biosphere. But even thousands of light years away, a similar event today could cause havoc with the sensitive electronic systems that advanced societies have come to depend on. The challenge now is to establish how rare such Carbon-14 spikes are i.e. how often such radiation bursts hit the Earth. In the last 3000 years, the maximum age of trees alive today, only one such event appears to have taken place."
