Seeking Rationale instead of being susceptible to belief

Hello People: 

Throughout history Religion has had a continual influence in the transmission of moral and social values, judging to the case in any direction you look in the world.   Atheisism as a system of thought, always perceived as denying the existence of God or attached divinity, I believe is something which should spark that revolution.

Does any notion of Godlessness equate to societial structure and governance, breaking down and becoming immoral.  From any moral standpoint, propagated under religious councel, there is to be an ethical equivalent, not seen as criminal or bigotted; demonstrating only humanity’s ability to think and live socially, without some level of constant instruction.  Our emotional capacities are the tools to providing answers to this equation. 

Atheisism: in this instance can play an intermediary role, to furthering the wholesome dignity and political confidence these changes would carry.  I strongly believe in the creation of a Interfaith Political Party.

Thank you.

Ethnic Fusion

Hello People:

I hope you have had a good week so far, and go on to have a good weekend.

My question today is: Is there a harmonious stance to be achieved through the co-existence of Religious or Political thinking?

Interpretations of so many ideas bring their own sense of revelation and fortitude: mostly by some agreeable logic being deduced from a thought or proposition. By the same kind of token, the transaction between perception and reflection builds up both an intellectual and spiritual identity within a person. It is these sets of logical, mindful constructs, I believe are the basis for understanding why religious conversions happen. Compare the make-up of an idea which physically becomes a usable invention, the devise manufactured has some purpose that facilitates the achieving of something else. The same is appropriate when considering the uses of political ideas. Successful political policies, when initiatives have been implemented well, have affects which are very physical in their nature, and can increase or demote the well-being of the individual or community, depending on how things are directed.

Given this, also consider the question of whether or not any scheme of concrete, religiously focused apparatus understands itself truly enough to become a firmly established and transferrable doctrine to reliably transcribe particular modes of thought trans-nationally.

My aims are to create an interfaith Political Party form: Bringing together the expressions of a cross-section of ethnic groups happy to live in a secular society, possessing a consolidated social order. This I name specifically InterEthno Politics.

I would appreciate some possible feedback on the ideas put forward here.

Take Care

John.

Hello People: How are you?

Evaluations can be made over what constitutes the use and significance of mataphor in multi-cultural context. National Ethnic Identity is similiar to most people’s understanding of the word “Method”.

Conceptions towards building up a newly transmittable set of cultural norms are components to perhaps the creation of a ethnicity; first being born by the mixing of race, and then later formulated having gained an historical standing in the world.

The pattern of reproduction for a fledgling race has to reach a measure natural, biological consistancy which allows for the particular customary aspect to naturally meld with that of the physical appearance, thus associations perpetuated throughout belief systems, bringing relevance to the notions of birth, death and gender relations, and family are rooted within an appreciation for religious and spiritual understandings toward the human life cycle.

There is something deeply significiant here to acknowledge, where there is evidence of a complete human life cycle in existence (explained by separate racial groups pairing inter-racially), from this there exists the possibily of societies forming. This I feel is something wonderful to be able to enbraced on a contemplative and metaphysical level, as our transcendance to being a non-violent species could only be more greatly enhanced.

Take Care, My Friends

Liberalism as a Poison

Does Liberalism Through It’s Political Promotion Actually Expose Human Frailities?

Introduction.

The question above could perhaps initially evoke the accusation that the description and tackling the ideas of Liberalism as incorporated into many political structures in the Western Hemisphere, could just as well be regarded as a frivolous exercise when mulling over notions and legislative proposals towards extending the rights and entitlement to citizenship.

If you were to extract particular social demensions of politics from the overall understandings people have ascertained about the nature of freedom in a Democratic system, I would say (from a personal point of view) that little is even acknowledged towards the more ideosyncratic workings of the “Operative Will”, fermenting the conceptual plinth on which the grand sculpture of everything “semiotic” stands.

It is extraordinary that as we are very much acquainted with how market consummerism functions and how this combines with the civil appropriations of right, ( the acknowedgement and granting of empowerments), the elevation in the status of the individual through commercial and market orientated strategy, in itself creates at least by proxy some degree of confusion and disorganisation within the compatriot sense to which a nation frequently prescribes to.

What essentially sustains a transmittable set of cultural beliefs is in turn the ethnically-orientated alegories which are often dervived from political struggle, appreciation in essemblances towards symbols of religious significance and customary pride. Qualities true and distinct to a culture, humour, and fortitude are also aspects which in respect to the building of a national character are juxtaposed superbly.

Reflection/1

Hello people: I hope all is well with all readers.

In thinking about the layout of this blog page initially, my reasons for establishing it were to perhaps offer people what I might include within it, the opportunity to extract ideas from the main body of each chosen entry, incorporating pieces of it for any particular research or reference source you may find helpful.

Parts of paragraphs do not need to be attributed to me, and maybe some formulating of the text are required to re-worked in terms of sentence structure and wording, but please do feel free to use what I have written.

Another aspect of the idea I had for this page was to stick to discussing topics, producing essays which I write out of my interest on subjects, and thus publishing my own written material on the blog page. I aim not to talk about myself very, but solely to contribute in the way I am doing.

Quite possibly this method of information sharing, will help to promote the “kind and level” of free-thinking, and communicative exchange I so much personally believe in. Please read the poem below: It is taken from a Buddist text.

Liberating Prayer – Praise to Buddha Shakyamuni.

O Blessed One, Shakyamuni
Precious treasury of compassion
Bestower of supreme inner peace.

You, who love all beings without exception,
Are the source of happiness and goodness;
And you guide us to the liberating path.

Your body is a wishfulfilling jewel
Your speech is supreme, purifying nectar,
And your mind is refuge for all living beings.

With folded hands I turn to you,
Supreme unchanging friend,
I request you from the depths of my heart:

Please give me the light of your wisdom
To dispel the darkness of my mind
And to heal my mental continuum.

Please nourish me with your goodness,
That I in turn may nourish all beings
With an unceasing banquet of delight.

Through your compassion intention,
Your blessings and virtuous deeds,
And my strong wish to rely upon you,

May all suffering quickly cease
And all happiness and joy be fulfilled;
And may holy Dharma flourish for evermore.

Colophon: This prayer, composed by Venerable Geshe Klsang Gyatso Rinpoche, is recited regularly at the beginning of sadhanas in Kadampa Buddists centres around the world.

Feelings about Faith

Hello People:

What I aim to discuss in this blog in the whole grand scheme of things, is to examine, how we, humanity, in account of how many different types of societies do operate, continuely seek and someday achieve in function, a coefficient multicultural system of politics, corresponding to the orthadox nature of religion.

Orthadox Interfaith Correlation.

Without it’s own sense of justification societies continuely struggle to exist if value systems are not geopolictical. The augmentation of social norms, ideas that institute workable models to family structure, including differential patterns in gender roles all contribute to how the formal operation of cultural transmission successfully develops.

If by the simply fact of human biology, we as a species possess protective instincts, quite natural, nurturing balances to personality. I view it as quite plausible that humanity is also capable by extension of augmenting a dynamic style of politics which promotes the coefficiency of a mutual co-existence, within which intelligent doctrine frames in a altruistic, virtuous fashion, the universality of human expression.

As does happen, if two people belonging to distinct races, enter into a recognised inter-racial relationship, with each belonging to seperate historical religions. Then with this situation apparent, the state has the responsibility to revise their divorce laws, with the purpose in mind of including the incidence of conversion to fundamentally challenge the legal structure and feasibility on a country’s jurisprudence.

In England at present I believe that the adaption to recognising the difficulties attributed to the legality of the workings of an interfaith maritial principles is poorly acknowledged, needing as a result legislation to be created in order to amend these circumstances.

I will write more on this subject in the future. Introducing a notion of Orthadox-cross Nationalism.

Thank you for the meantime

Education for all Cross-sections

Hello People:

Education has either an unspecified or a fairly agreeable definition. I say this because Education per se can be split into two categories: Vocational and Academic.

The structure of societies revolves around the premise of people having different levels of both vocational and academic ability. Whole industries globally are developmentally based around natural and human resources, (manually to technically, Creatively to methodical)

Outside of these parameters lay a specific birth rate of disabled people born with congenial disabilities, each with some degree of medical recognition, as to the characteristics and disorderly affects. There has for centuries been an outlook whereby the perception of disabled people has been purely based on a medical and not a social model.

This is where I find the introduction of education for disabled people of interest, for as the definitions of congential abnormality have changed, the awareness of disabled people within society has altered slightly also. Very much in a positive fashion.

Special Education has gained greater focus over a span of 40 years. The reason for this I believe is that the maintenance and running of institutions has been impossible to sustain and therefore has lead to many disabled people being integrated into communities. Also another reason for the closures of instititions is due to wide moves to reform and amend the adminstrative structure of whole areas of the Health System.

Education for anyone, disabled or not is all part of the developmental promotion of reshaping our baseline notions of the nature of inclusiveness, emphasisizing a concept of “Optimum Value”, cast in a manner which reflects various aspects of human identity, attaining some level of common ground where concrete ideas can be identified with.

Integration, I believe is’n that important as many political lobbyists would themselves interpret it to be. How I would formalise and grant political recognition of rights would be through devising legislation establishing agreement over what understanding is possessed by people towards building a national conception of a “Hierarchy of Needs”, infusing people with the belief towards upholding stability with their culture. Introducing to folk ideas which ferment correlations between Education and Cultural input.

By doing this, the nature of democracy would have to the opportunity to move away from difficult representations, so often tied up in liberal thinking and would thus evolve into a principle which more greatly reflects it’s respected aspirations: Meaning people having control over the own lives.

Providing official statement.

The term “statement” in reference to Special Education, gives a broad, descriptive outline of the disability a child has: a brief history of the medical classification of their disabiliy, physiotherapeutic requirements. Other noted care frameworks can also be mention to coincide with the contact they may receive from Social Services. Elements of a person’s more private social activities and interests would also be included in part.

Revising Legislation.

During recent times we have seen a more social and altruistic approach become apparent in the way disability is viewed. I believe this is the case due to the creation of the Community Care Act, which is a UK developed piece of legislation designed to assist in the integration of disabled people into the community. This is what has also prompted a refashioning of statutory provisions over the last 10 to 15 years, leading to a growth in the familiarity of concepts “Empowerment” and “Independent Living”. As these ideas have gained further prominence, bestowing greater physical effect, so we have seen educational reforms come to light.

What is the nature of Human Nature?

What is the nature of Human Nature?

Introduction.

*Answering the above questioning if wholly and satisfactorily explained might in some way leave the reader with a greater understanding of the status of the human being within modern day society, or might otherwise provoke a degree of consternation in some who are possibily of the opinion that is better to view “the Human Personality” in a somewhat “UnCategorised” perspective, thus learning to embrace evermore sincerely the dynamicism gained from fortitude, Creative Expression, and the Life Cycle.

*The sometimes foreseen and sometimes unexpected influences of technology and science in the daily life of the individual is hugely upheld as a means to strengthen the efficiency towards accruing both method and success. Time and Energy feature stealthily in any production of any result, conversely simulating the drive towards applied logic and reason. From the formative stance, I would like to suggest to readers that most ideas which are developed into theories and scientific principles are first born out of acquisitiveness, emotive suggestion and artistic portrayal.

*Looking into the depth and acquisition of the human being’s spatial abilities, their capacity to construct homes, design buildings, bridges and ships, and within all this multiplicity in the use of our perceptions, and how we perceive rests the will and desire to reach beyond the mere wishes of a species to quite so easily survive, exbounding to levels where under the banner of progress and achievement, even the approach to armed conflict is incrementally more advanced and humane.

*What seems to be relevant in terms of definite human interests, quite ironically appears to operate on a set of universal principles. There are physical needs which supersede the display of all other nutured attributes, hidden within the psychological mode of normal circumstance and reaction, and being our base instincts, are the subconscious elements, we in the main securely suppress in the persuit of civility.

*I have come to believe that notions of peace and enlightenment towards reaching reconcilable situations where humanity, as far as it is conceivably plausible as well as hopefully possible will never navigate away too strongly from the appreciative biological definitions of racial identity, as a fundamental law and quality of nature, races are not born as single (“Proud to be individual”) entities, but are truly born as pairs, possessing and unique reproductive capacity.

*I hope that whoever lives and is of either of a Mullatto or Eurasian parental heritage discovers the potentiality of racial consolidation, as besides what is held in popular sentiment at present, ethinicity is socio-political and a joy to have pour out of our hearts.

The position of each asterix at the beginning of every paragraph is designed to suggest where the beginning of one idea and supposition begins, and then again, to how each all interlink. To produce, as is my aim, a condensed overview to answer the question of human nature..

Kind Regards

John

On the subject of Genocide.

Hello People: How are you?

*One thing of possible interest I would like to share with you today, concerns a film I saw a few nights ago (loaded out on DVD). The film was in the greater part historically based on real events over the occupation of Nanking, China between the months of November and December 1937. There were atrocities which occur ed during this period which defy belief.

*What I wish to discuss with you using this blog entry is: Is it plausible to say that human nature combined with the problem of possessing very limited national territorial and geographical space in the world, contributes to ethnic conflict and unspeakable levels of violence, and displacement of populations.

*A state of absolute harmony between human beings can easily be proved to be a utopian dream. Achievable perhaps if humanity were to undergo dramatic shifts in it’s social and reproductive ideologies. It seems from my point of view, that societies adapt to becoming Liberal, due to having the making of their social fabric experience civil and moral erosion initially. Religion conversely, but often in a benign fashion is used to encourage people to exercise propriety and scrubbles, especially in relating the matter of identity to religious affiliations, denominations; of which I find is intriguing in itself.

*But when we look at how civic propriety and statuary law is challenged in regards to the standing of a society’s values and norms, much does seemingly become serverely compromised. From this context, I see it as highly possible that a deterioration in a country’s national character can easily come about.

*Here I am not taking a swipe at the notion of folk having rights and personal freedoms, or not being identified with due being of a Hetra-sexual or Homo-sexual orientation, but how particularly the nature of the capitialist economy consistently presents the realisation of sections of a population being prosperous and relevant to media and cultural attention, while increasingly, many staple material industries are lost where foreign acquisition is involved, by the simple outsourcing for employment, the buying and renting of property plus financial re-organising which companies aim to establish, helping them to exceed in the levels of profits made.

*Straightforwardly, it is appropriate to begin questioning why (as it is obviously known) there is such a growth between the rich and poor in societies belonging to the Western Hemisphere: if such deappreciation of the importance of industry to regional communities was’nt a factor.

*Just as regeneration as is always praised as a concept to seeing an area reviving itself. Degeneration is unsustainable, with suggestions of under-investment managing to carry very little weight, if industries attributed to particular communities in the past were strongly placed as contributors to national GDP (Gross Domestic Production).

*All of these various aspects to a country’s National/International position in the world are fundamental, and therefore building upon the foundations of the kinds of other situations we can anticipate leading to social unease and unrest.

*It is undoubtable suitable at this point to say that our human nature lies somewhere between being altrustic and self-interested. This dichotomy has not so amazingly got connections with the number of different personalities and characteristics shared between a sample group. As you may find that despite the numbers of the human species being quite collossal, there are in fact very few human races, and therefore very little cross-genetic racial variation which is not repeated through reproduction over time.

*Once a race has assembled a demonstrable cultural propensity and social structure, it would be only right to add, that a race is represented as forming a type of people, who have an instinctive nature to their character, as much as they do adher to cultural ideas which are not part of the ”Flight or fight” mechanism towards survival. Geographical space is marked out in this regard, as being essential to the formation of national identity, as human beings possess the need to be responsible for becoming organised and selective.

*This need to be responsible as a number, evolves from dispositions which arise from the manifestations of a range of human emotional responses, again with congruity leading to better social organisation. Hugely relevant to all of this is the appearance of creativity as a feature to the formalising, recording, and transmission of cultural heritage.

*A given example would be to mention: That a person would feel proud that a people, to which they themselves belong had, devised and developed additionally, cultural norms which each and every person within a said society now practice and by choice and devotion live out.

* I will add more to this subject in future blogs, and hope that what you have read thus far is considered as interesting and usable in some way.

Thank you

Hello People: How are you?

Thank you for reading the blog entry/page. I have written over however many days. My plans are to write on other subjects. Hopefully to continue to put flesh on the structure of this page, and to forward to as many readers original angles on life and times.

To come to understand fundamentally what needs to be understood, a philosophical postulate to my mind should be aim to be put across non-intrusively. From the approach of the fixed entry standards, to the deeper and more affirmed academic levels, required for succinct mindful application, there is a need for human mentality always to remain stable. Emotional stability in multiple instances is therefore something of a prerequisite to developing perception, involving capacities of which a person is born with, or building upon insight by thinking in particular ways.

In this regard, I would like to discuss throughout this blog entry two questions which are becoming pressing in it’s immediacy:

(Q1) What is meant by the word “Modernity” when the term is used?

(Q2) How many interpretations to the meaning of the word “Modernity” can we anticipate to exist among many ethnic groups of different countries?

The previous twentieth century in my point of view was in itself unrestful and therefore wholly “Occupied”. A particular approach to vanquishing and almost “Re-socialising an array of various ethnic races by a means of undesirable and ugly “Polictical Interjection” has led I feel whole continents of people into a subliminal acceptance of Western Civic and Juridical Systems.

It seem outrageous to be rendered within a situation as perhaps we have in places like Africa where vast numbers of people are not utilised significantly by quantifiable percentages to firmly have possession of distinctive political structures without there some notable influence and historical reminiscence of the British and European Empirical strivings; which forcibly have to be recognised given the colonial past.

As any ordinary contention might stand, there is good reason to examine the chronology of the Postmodern world, in positively enquiring into, and also as to how, many people of European and British descent move away, distancing themselves consciously from the events and ideology of generations past.

Modernity as describing the coming of times, the shifting of social and technological growth has always interested me. For just as easily do people from all walks of life embrace, equip themselves with training and skills to meet the market economy’s requirement throughout modern times, almost nothing of the types of changes which do occur seem to be expected in a sense. Every apparent condition in these circumstances appear out of thin air, while still most of the general public, raise very apt questions over the state of morality, in and about their localities, community development, regeneration, role-based issues, and business investment.

On a municipal level I ask myself whether or not district councils are adequately prepared for the sort of imbalances which occur while within the grips of Globalisation, the mechanisms of a Central Government seem to oppositionally become insular.
