      autopoetic evolution

      This is a kind of DIY talk show interview with evolutionary biologist and futurist Elisabet Sahtouris. The host is a bit off-putting, but Dr. Sahtouris does most of the talking and she covers a lot of fascinating ground on changing scientific paradigms and what she calls the "cycle of evolution."

      If you have a sense of caring for others, you will manifest a kind of inner strength in spite of your own difficulties and problems. With this strength, your own problems will seem less significant and bothersome to you. By going beyond your own problems and taking care of others, you gain inner strength, self-confidence, courage, and a greater sense of calm.Dalai Lama

      He's gay. Lol. I heard it right away after the first word he left his mouth. To me it's always been a mystery how all gay people all over the world talk the same way. How is this possible? Also their bodylanguage is the exact same thing... it amazes me. Does anyone have an explanation for this?

      You merely have to change your point of view slightly, and then that glass will sparkle when it reflects the light.

      annyyyhooooot!!

      the man was scary, like he was some skeleton from the crypt *please cut your hair* that and all he did was repeat what she said, except poorly

      so I stopped watching the video and looked up her writings instead, worth a read

      definitely I think even the philosophy of thinking of the earth as living is beneficial and never not beneficial. if we see ourselves as part of a larger organism - the organism Earth - then we understand we can't act like a 'cancer'. We can't continue our self destructive behaviors.

      I finished watching the whole vid. It was looong but definatly worth it. She tells really interesting stuff, I especially liked the metaphor she used with the keyboard. And I agree with everything she says. Don't let the the guy with the bad haircut scare you off :p

      It's okay, my first impression was, "Lmao he's so gay!"

      It just makes me laugh so much everytime he talks.

      Good video though.

      I'm going to be honest though, I'm not as optimistic as her. Maybe it's better that way, she can just happily believe the next generation will come together. I see two possible roads, each equally possible. Honestly, only time will tell, I'm not looking forward to the Earth in popcorn mode though.

      There's evidence the Atlanteans survived their shit, too. Not only texts about the white bearded men tribe in South America claiming to have survived a disaster (the Chachapoya), but the Incans built a massive statue of a white bearded man. It's not wonder when the spanierds came with the technology to shoot thunder, they bowed down and worshipped them.

      I have something else I want to say, that is about Elisabet what's-her-name, and not the creepy host.

      I think it is completely possible to merge awareness. In other words, people, even an entire planet, could reach singular awareness. Not through cybernetic assimilation, but through love.

      I'm probably going to be called crazy for saying this, but when two people love each other unconditionally, overtime their consciousnesses begin to merge. I haven't experienced this, but I do believe it's true. It doesn't mean they see themselves as one person necessarily, it means that their intentions goals, interests, sufferings and elations become shared. Their karma is merged.

      An entire planet would take eons to reach this kind of love imo but with the world in such a dramatic time coming up people should begin to see the needs of others above their own, seeing the sanctity of their planet over their own.

      Everything works out in the end, sometimes even badly.

      another completely off topic post by me! some people say that karma is naturally merged between male and female in sexual intercourse. thus, you should never have intercourse with someone you don't love, otherwise you will bear the karma of this person you don't really care about

      You are better off dead. Obviously you would know if someone who is gay isn't acting that way...and obviously you know if someone who is acting that way is actually straight...and obviously you aren't a bigoted worthless piece of trash.

      I don't act anything like the man your talking about.

      What about lesbians hmm? Do you think all lesbians are butch? What about lipstick lesbians?

      You're just worthless.
