Quote by J.R.Nyquist

“Churchill was not a communist agent. Some people argue very ridiculous points. Read the history with a view to wider issues, to character and for psychological understanding. We are all human. God save you from being unfairly judged as you judge. There are anticommunists who have accused me of being a KGB agent. You think about it. Such accusations can be evil in themselves. We need to use words with care. Churchill is dead and cannot defend himself. It is up to us to be fair-minded and not be unjust to the dead.”

“From a Buddhist perspective, the description of reality provided by quantum mechanics offers a degree of freedom to which most people are not accustomed, and that may at first seem strange and even a little frightening. As much as Westerners in particular value the capacity for freedom, the notion that the act of observation of an event can influence the outcome in random, unpredictable ways can seem like too much responsibility. It’s much easier to assume the role of the victim and assign the responsibility or blame for our experience to some person or power outside oneself. If we’re to take the discoveries of modern science seriously, however, we have to assume responsibility for our moment-by-moment experience. (...) one of the most basic of the Buddha’s teachings: Everything you think, everything you say, and everything you do is reflected back to you as your own experience. If you cause someone pain, you experience pain ten times worse. If you promote others’ happiness and well-being, you experience the same happiness ten times over. If your own mind is calm, then the people around you will experience a similar degree of calmness. Even Heisenberg’s famous uncertainty principle acknowledges an intimate connection between inner experience and physical manifestation.”

“To think that we can or should all ‘go Amish’ and stick our heads in the sand with regard to technology is wishful thinking, but so too is the black-pilled fantasy that we can’t and shouldn’t use technology in our own projects and creations. In the end technology is just a contemporary iteration of Prometheus’s fire. It can burn, yes, and its smoke can blind our eyes. But it can also revolutionize our creativity and aid those of us employing it for higher than material purposes to shine a light through the shadows for anyone capable of seeing and following our freedom beacon.”
