LAW OF ATTRACTION

    NETFLIX...got to admit that it's pretty addictive. You just keep browsing and browsing, until you stumble upon something, watch it for 5 min, than browse again. I saw this "documentary" on Youtube a while back called "The Secret", thought it was some propaganda thing, got bored after I found out what the secret was 10 seconds. Than I saw it again on Netflix. I watched it for 10-15 minutes, also got bored. (Oh, full disclosure, "the secret" is the so called law of attraction).

   So basically this law of attraction is a manifestation of one's thoughts. It is a basic principle of a movement called.... New Thought. In short, if you think hard about something, the universe will respond and help you materialise that thought. So I thought hard about the one thing we all desire...money.  I kid you not, the next day I received the biggest bonus from my company in the 10 years I have been working there. I bevelieve now, I believe.

  Jokes aside the bonus was real, and I did think about money, like really focusing all my thoughts on a dollar bill. So it got me thinking. What if prayers work in the same way. 

  Basically prayers are just focused thoughts. Focusing on only one thought is a very hard thing to do. We see many people saying that they prayed and had their prayers answered. The only question is: who exactly answered those prayers, what if they were the ones that answered their own prayers. 

              

The "zombie ant" Theory

       So what's a description of a zombie,basically a mindless drone,urged by the desire to feed.Of course according to folklore a zombie is a walking cadaver, although vampires are also walking cadavers,both working on the same principle: in order to assure their own survival they need to feast on the living.

       But why would a dead body need to survive.Now that's the paradox.Vampires,zombies,mummies, if they're all dead, why do they want to live so bad,even if they are the "living dead" they are still dead.

      Now let's take a look of a real life zombie situation:

The "Efficiency System" Theory

      
       Every day of our lives consists of "daily routines". Daily routines consist of different actions that become unconditioned reflexes due to repetitive use. Unfortunately not all routines are good or efficient.

       For example waking up, and the first thing you do, is light up a cigarette.Smoking on an empty stomach causes hunger sensation,the stomach will secrete acid and that could cause tissue damage.So have a snack before lighting up that cigarette.

      That's just an example of a bad routine.There are also inefficient routines that make up our daily lives,whether is work related, or house chores, or just spending free time. If you take a moment to write down the things you do in a week, you'll realize that some things could use a change. Implementing a more efficient daily routine means more personal time,and personal time is the most important;relaxing,enjoying it with friends,family.

      When you manage to free more time for yourself don't just waste it,plan it.The quality of life is also related to how you spend your time,because you can only live once, and if everybody dies that doesn't mean that everybody lives.

A Theory with a drop of lemon

      
      Funny fact :"Live viral vaccines such as the smallpox or yellow fever vaccines provide immune protection that lasts several decades, but despite their success, scientists have remained in the dark as to how they induce such long lasting immunity" (MNT quote).

      So basically scientists are discovering now what the stuff that newborns have been inoculated with for decades, does.Awesome,it reminds me of the Pepsi Twist commercials:

• first there was Pepsi Twist because it was Pepsi with Lemon
• after it became Pepsi Twist Lemon,hmmm that's like saying climbing up, or sitting down
• then they thought of a commercial that stated: "Pepsi Twist Lemon ,now with a drop of lemon"

      WHAT? What the hell? "NOW" with a drop of lemon,well what the hell did it contain until now?OMG and they wonder why Coke has 90% of the market.You gotta be kidding me, "now with a drop of lemon" they said.

      Ok back to our vaccine...so "NOW" they are discovering what it does? That is so uncool,it's like humanity has been a guinea pig for decades.I know it's a necessary "evil",sort of say, but doing this based on the fact that "oh ok it provides immunity,it must be good and it has to be safe" when there are so many unknown factors involved it's kind of creepy.Seriously who knows what's going on at molecular level.

      I'm gonna stop,no more conspiracy theories,if life gives me lemons....I'll just make lemonade.

The Paranoia Theory

     

     During these past decades with all the global crisis going on hasn't anybody thought of what's going to happen? Overpopulation,lack of natural resources,less food,less drinking water,global warming ,economy going to pieces maybe and so on.

     Some guy, somewhere at some table , while drinking his coffee with no sugar and just a drop of milk, is thinking:

   "Hmmm , what the hell are we going to do about this?"

     And it's enough for one thought to put some wheels into motion in order to create something.

     "Do we have studies about this?" he asked ."We need more studies, we have to know what to do.We can't just sit here and drink coffee while the world goes to hell.How much resources do we have?...That's not enough,check who has some and let's start a war, it's for the good of the country.We need to preserve our way of life."

     Globalization,it has to be done one way or the other, but usually it's done in the way of the strongest party.

The Repetition Theory

    

      Scientists say that soon we'll have no more original ideas.I say we are already passed that point.We have over 10,000 years of history and yet only less than 5,000 years are "recorded history".How do we know for sure that something we think of now,or we discover now,wasn't already discovered 7,351 years ago?

        We take old things and give them new meanings and that's about it.The only reason we consider inventing new things is because we easily forget the past.And copyright is a major problem nowadays.Not like we intentionally do it but it happens,and we are unaware of it.

       I'm almost certain that I am copying someone's ideas and posting them into my blog.I know it's like digging my own hole with that phrase but since I can't know for sure if I am the first to think like this (and I am probably not),it's a thought that I'm sticking with.

       When it comes to originality I wish I was born 1000 years ago.When it comes to knowledge I wish I was born 1000 years from now.When it comes to society and civilization I wish I was born 1000 light years away.

The Utopian Theory

     

       I've been meaning to write this for a while now,about Plato's Republic,about how we can create a truly modern society,about the future that mankind needs to go for.And as I'm thinking about this my mind wonders off (drifting away towards reality,one hell of a daydreamer I am) and I'm looking at my keyboard I realize that my PC is 5 years old,and there's this new MMO coming out this fall and I definitely need to buy a new PC.Just one problem: I lack the money.

The "ghost rider" Theory

      Finally Apocalypse is happening,clearly the death horseman is cruising trough Cairo boulevards.All religious persons raise your hands wohooo.Unless you don't have a "death horseman" in your Apocalypse section of the book.In that case you'll just have to wait for the next breaking news from CNN.

      Come on people at least try to act a little skeptical about this;don't be skeptical but at least act a bit.We're in the 21st century,the cybernetic age,we have evolved in the past decade more than we did in half a century.

      Well either way I'm glad people pay more interest in a "ghost" than in all the real and alive persons struggling in the land of the pharaohs; we have a distorted perception of our world because of the media influence,we see and hear only the information we are given.I wonder what the revolutionaries of Cairo think about that horseman,probably nothing ,probably they are too busy with a revolution.

The Theory of Imagination

        
      Well since yesterday my mind was a blur due to a severe headache,I just posted some videos and also reviewed them for my own amusement.What I admire at people like comedians is their unique capability of imagining things. 
      It's the same cognitive process I am trying to apply to this blog,when two existing perceptions (thesis and antithesis) are combined within the mind, a third perception (called synthesis) is formed. At this point, perception only exists as a part of imagination and can become the inspiration for a new invention or technique,or why not a theory.That is the basic definition of imagination.
       It is also a known fact that hallucinogenic drugs, hypnosis,meditation (which can lead to self hypnosis) heighten the imagination.
       As I said in my "Theory of Relativity" post,we take for granted what our receptors(our "sensors") show us.But when the line between imagination and reality is crossed due to drugs or other factors which change the brain chemistry than it's called psychosis.
       Imagination can be so real that it hurts for real,we can hurt others not only ourselves,either by using drugs which distort reality or by imagining the wrong things like war and death and disease.

The "Y" theory

     How come we call ourselves "sapiens" ? How can humans be so cruel to each other? Don't you want to scream when children die of hunger when billions and billions of dollars/euros are invested in war.

      Humanity invests more money in death than in the preservation of life;as I stated in the Yin-Yang Theory   ,there is only one sure thing in life and that is death,maybe that's why death is worth investing in,it's a sure business.

      I feel like screaming right now but "deaf" is spelled the same way as "death".Are you deaf? you may as well be dead.

      Open your eyes world and see what you have become after 10000 years of  "civilization". "Sapiens" and "human" are titles that are earned,we are born as blank pages,written little by little by society.
      Dolphins are more intelligent and human than we'll ever be.Why is that? Have we lost ourselves in the modern society web?Where is our humanity,where are our hopes,our dreams.Who is darkening our future?

The "dream" Theory

        I'm sure that everyone had a dream when he/she was little,like wanting to fly,wanting to be a certain superhero and so on.Let's analyze this for a moment.

         Supposing you grow wings like in the movies; you have wings and you are able to fly.Will that put an end to traffic?No more cars/plains?

The "Big and Mighty" Theory

     Take a couple of small infants, a nutty professor and a bunch of his colleagues, some cartoons and a TV set and what do you get? Well a psychological experiment.Lotte Thomsen,who is assistant professor at the University of Copenhagen's Department of Psychology and his research fellow in Harvard's Department of Psychology, is the lead author of the article "Big and Mighty: Preverbal Infants Mentally Represent Social Dominance."

     According to Thomsen's research, this potentially instinctive knowledge in infants could indicate the fact that we are all born with an understanding of the social hierarchy and how physical size relates to social dominance. Logic right?

The Theory of a Typical Mind

        
       Have you ever stepped back to look at what you are doing just to realize that you missed something?Well there are people who don't need to do that.

      What is a "typical mind",well there are people who think everything step by step.I'm not one of them although I'd wish,I have a friend though who's thinking like this.Everything is well measured,no detail is missed,everything that needs to be done,well ...basically it's done.

     I don't think like that,I see the finish product,I revise what needs to be done in order to get to the end but for certain I miss a couple of steps on the way.Usually I have to write down every step that I have to take ,and sometimes I even forget to write down all the steps.

     No,not everyone does that.There are people who,well I just guess that they think slower in order to compensate having to do thorough work.And it's not only experience and repetitive actions which are the cause of this,no, there are some people who actually think like that.

The Misinformation Theory

     And finally I manage to write the last and final post regarding the Global Conspiracy Theory.

     Misinformation is a very subtle and powerful tool to keep a large amount of the population in total darkness,by providing with a customized artificial light.Come to think of it I'm just rewriting what Plato said 2000 years ago in the "cave myth", well sort of anyway.(note:for whoever reads this and doesn't know about the "cave myth" ,well either google it or stop reading).

Poor Education Theory

      
     Second post regarded to Global Conspiracy Theory.

      I don't even need to write this post; US is currently in an educational crisis because due to lack of proper education the future of the economy is in peril.Why?

The Poverty Theory

       First of the 3 theories related to Global Conspiracy Theory posted earlier.
     Just to keep this non-related to world wide theories, I will try to explain  with few words the effects of poverty,poor education,misinformation and why are these issues so important in understanding the danger that is represented by our own kind.
      According to scientists, poor children are less capable than wealthier children.Joke?

Global Conspiracy Theory

      First I thought of making funny theories of the Universe,totally absurd ideas that only my idiotic brain could think of.But looking at the world around me I cannot stand without noticing how easy it is for some people to control it.

• Poverty
• Poor Education 
• Misinformation

      Why would people want that? Why not,in my honest and humble opinion this world is going to Hell if we aren't already there.If Hell exists well this is pretty much it.I am not a religious man, I believe in the laws of physics,chemistry,biology and all other sciences known and unknown to man to this date,but God help us because we cannot help each other or even ourselves.

Theories and Axioms

      When you're a kid you think your penis is just for peeing. When you're old you know that for sure.A perfect example of a theory and an axiom.But what is an axiom?Well an axiom or a postulate is basically a theory that doesn't have to be proven because it's true.

     For example the "parallel lines postulate",it's the 5th postulate of Euclid and it holds the basis to plane geometry that we all learn in school.

The MMORPG Theory

     
     For those who are yet unfamiliar with the term,MMORPG stands for massively multiplayer online role-playing game.This category of internet games includes names like World of Warcraft,Guild Wars,Lineage II,Cabal Online and many, many other names.The number of players is estimated as a 9 figure number.

The Tragedy Theory

     The worse thing that happens in your life is the moment you realize the world doesn't revolve around you anymore. It's the moment that you grow up. I know that maybe I am exaggerating and the general idea is that you finally are an adult and you get to live your life the way you want it. But overall as an adult you are (or at least you have to be) a responsible person, because whatever you do you will be held responsible for.

    And there are people (like me) who basically like to run away from these responsibilities ,unfortunately most of us end up facing our fears. This category of people is the so-called "daydreamers". Even in literature the event of "growing-up" is pictured like a tragedy, and that's totally understandable, who is a bigger daydreamer than a writer. Maybe that's why I've started writing this damn blog in the first place lol.
