I am on a ‘cooking Hungarian’ spell…
So yesterday I looked up how others make spinach in Hungary.
To my utter surprise and maybe mortification, more than half of the recipes put bread into the dish.
That’s not how I know it! I can’t eat bread!
Both of those are hidden ‘shoulds’…
So today I made the dish exactly like they say. Continue reading “Sometimes you need a do or die situation to open your mind”

When you are sick, your only job is to be sick. NOT to heal yourself, but to be sick. Not to pretend to work, pretend to be well.
When you are sick, be sick.
What happens when you are trying to heal?
Then you resist reality… you replace reality with a should-be-reality.
Can your body do its job of healing you if and when you do that? No. It can’t. Continue reading “When you are sick, your only job is to be sick”

Every age has a favorite way to explain diseases, symptoms, and every age has been wrong.
There was a brief period in the 80’s maybe later. It started by Dr. Hulda Clark, and it was about parasites. And it was about enriching herself.
But she wasn’t altogether wrong, or not as wrong as organized medicine. Her method’s truth value was a whopping 7%… Still shabby, but less shabby. Continue reading “Organized medicine: 3% truth value, Alternative? Healers? 1%”

Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis handing out a sentence to an old bank robber
’30 years’
‘Your honor, I’m 75 years old, I don’t have 30 years to serve’
‘Then do the best you can’
This joke pretty accurately summarizes our lives.
The odds are not on our sides to live out our lives fully.
I could say ‘by design’, but that would not be accurate.
What the heck am I talking about? About the conflict between you and commerce… Continue reading “Commerce is king… and you are a peon, or maybe a rook.”

When I do the health measurements for people, the last step is to see what causes or will likely cause big troubles if nothing changes.
The first of such causes (thinking/emotional errors, attitude) is what I want to talk about in this article… because I am just going through, or have just gone through something that even I didn’t expect, despite all my experience to the opposite.
I have been waiting to die.
I felt it inevitable. My mother died at my age… so I will too.

Are you secure enough in who you are to look at things that are of no personal relevance to you?
That sounds like a ‘so what?’ question, but it isn’t.
You see, one of the most important measures in predicting your happiness and success in life is your cone of vision plus your about-me score.
Ultimately the two measures, combined, give me how much of all-knowledge you are willing and able to see… so you can navigate life, the economy, relationships, health, successfully.
The smaller the combined measure is, the less you are willing to see. Your reaction to it: ‘it doesn’t apply to me‘ and you just block it out. You don’t even entertain it for a moment. (I can see it in your 67-step reports clearly. Or in what articles you open… or not) Continue reading “Times are a-changing… are you prepared?”

…or how you are a one-legged person trying to win an ass-kicking contestI have been experimenting.
I have run two experiments among the many that have brought results I did not expect. Results that told me that I have been one of these one-legged people. Continue reading “The fastest way to get better in every area of life…”

I woke up this morning happy. WTF? lol
It was so unusual, I actually tried to remember the last time I felt that way upon awakening. I could not find any…
And if I want to be quite, brutally honest, I can’t recall many times when I felt good… physically, emotionally, psychically… Not many.
So waking up happy was an event… worth investigating. Continue reading “I woke up this morning happy. A health turnaround…”

Consolation vs. Transformation?
This may be the first time you’ll read about anything like this: arm yourself: it won’t be pleasant news.
Most everything that you can get or buy today is consolation. Their function is that you bear being a slave, being a wreck easier. Like Soma in Brave New World.

What am I saying when I say ‘the design of human being’, or when I say ‘humans are designed to be…’?
Where do I look?
The Old Testament, the Five Books of Moses says that God created Adam to his own image.
Trying to reconstruct god from humans is a tricky proposition.
What we would get is a passive, combative, argumentative avoider… who has more common characteristics with sheep than with someone or something that created worlds.
So that direction of thinking is not going to lead us to what the design must be. Continue reading “What do I mean when I say ‘human design’ or ‘the design’?”
