Why Inspiration matters

To become personally inspired, the best you can do is set up the optimal circumstances for inspiration. As a society, the best we can do is assist in setting up these important circumstances for everyone. An easy first step is simply recognizing the sheer potency of inspiration, and its potential impact on everything we do.

Lehrer oder Leerer?

Ein buddhistischer Gelehrter namens Nogaguna, der um das Jahr 200 lebte, erfand eine ganze Dialektik und gründete eine Schule, in der der “Leiter” der Schüler einfach alle ihre Ideen zu zerstören hatte - alle ihre philosophischen Ansichten vollständig zunichte zu machen.
