Worms & Death & Ultimate Omnipotence

I am loving the riddles and "dazzling logic" (86)

"That it is inevitable does require of us that we should make it a virtue" (22)
"Darwin is celebrating wonder, admiration and devotion" (23)
 
Nature is our Temple where we get our soul charge
 
joy is nature's greatest boon (Darwin, 46)

Epic Rap Battle
Charles Darwin Vs Stephen Hawking

The object of our love and admiration determines our sense of what love is (Darwin, 25)
Death is the object of desire and death releases us from this desire (Freud, 111)

Fantastic!  the lowly worm (character in Richard Scarry books) sustains earth fertility (42)


the labour of digestion (44)
I love pages 48-49

learn something from those at the bottom of the hierarchy (51)
 think of the humanity of the masses of poor people

they (worms) preserve the past and create conditions for future growth. (56)
bury to renew; digest to restore (56)

page 57 - worms by nature are good - resilient, beneficial,
destruction as conserving (63)

intrigued by Sphinx complex (70) enigmas,  mystery, riddles, impossible, challenge, unsolvable
When I was at the Sphinx my film was at its last shot so no photo for me!



We stunt our energies with suffering and preconditions for happiness

The Reality Principle
page 17
consider the refuges that prevent us from living in the world as it is
and finding out what it is like,
and what we could be like in it

 birth and death has been controlled by the Christian patriarchal scientific world ever since I can remember

ingenious opportunism (Darwin, 118)
fundamental truth about people is ambivalence (Freud, 91)

Ambivalence is a state of having simultaneous, conflicting feelings toward a person or thing.[1] Stated another way, ambivalence is the experience of having thoughts and/or emotions of both positive and negative valence toward someone or something
