Scenes between man and nature - ‘Paths’ by Ruben Brulat

<small>Photographer Ruben Brulat has traveled from Europe to Asia by land only, through Iraq, Iran, on-to Afghanistan, Tibet until Indonesia, Japan and Mongolia to complete his latest works titled ‘Paths’. Performing sometimes in welcoming sand, sometimes in the harsh snow, the series of images capture a concurrence between man and nature - as they let themselves go, opening up to their senses.</small>

“Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” - JESUS

48 - THE SOURCE (ching)

Even though the location may change, THE SOURCE remains the same. You may draw from THE WELL, but it is never depleted.

CHING is the Source; it is the Well from which we draw all knowledge for it is where all knowledge collects. Like a raindrop returning to the ocean, everything we know is drawn back to the Source in the end. It is the origin and the destination of Universal Truth and nourishment. It exists both within and without us. We may look at it through the Hindu concept of BRAHMAN or the intellectual form known as the COLLECTIVE UNCONSCIOUS. We have the ability to drink from this Well if we know how to access it, but the water is not always pure. Because the Well is what we put into it, it may sometimes be dark and muddy or full of poisonous diseases. We must learn to distinguish when the correct time to access the Source is, or we risk polluting our souls.

The JUG is our attempt to reach the Well. If we are insincere, the rope is not long enough and does not reach the water. If we are looking for the wrong things, we fish in the Well which bears no fish. If we are not resolute, the jug is cracked and leaks. Each time we draw from the Well, we are using the Jug; while the state of Well cycles through changes, the state of the Jug is linear and subject to deterioration. Consistency and dependability will keep the Jug from falling into disarray.

Six in the fourth place means:

The well is being lined. It is time to prepare for an auspicious future.

If a well is being lined with stone, it cannot be used while the work is going on. But the work is not in vain; the result is that the water stays clear. In life also there are times when we must put ourselves in order. It is a period of internal investment. During such a time we can do nothing for others, but our work is nonetheless valuable, because by enhancing our powers and abilities through inner development, we can accomplish all the more later on.

Nine in the fifth place means:

In the well there is a clear, cold spring from which one can drink.

A well that is fed by a spring of living water is a good well. When we drink this water, we are refreshed. A person who has virtues like a well of this sort is born to be a leader for they have the WATER OF LIFE. They are in direct contact with The Source, and are constantly renewed by it.

How Burning Plants Signal Future Generations to Grow

Previous studies have reported that chemicals known as karrikins are created as trees and shrubs burn during a forest fire and remain in the soil after the fire, ensuring the forest will regenerate. In the April 23 early online edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), scientists at the Salk Institute and the University of California, San Diego, sought to uncover exactly how karrikins stimulate new plant growth.

The researchers found that a plant protein know as KAI2 binds to karrikin in dormant seeds, changing its shape. This karrikin-induced shape change may send a new signal to other proteins in the seeds causing seed germination when the time is right, after a forest fire.

Bright Young Things.

Anne: So do you think zero is a number?

Jamie: Sorry?

Anne: Zero. Is it a number?

Jamie: Yes and no. You can say it is, because you use it as a number within number systems. Or at least, you use it in the same way as a number. For example, in the number 507, the zero acts like a number. It signifies that there aren't any tens in the number, just hundreds and units. on the other hand, because the whole concept of zero is for it to indicate the absence of a number, it can't really be one.

Anne: Don't you want to know what I think?

Jamie: Um, yeah, OK, if you find it that interesting.

Anne: I think zero isn't a number.

Jamie: Great.

Anne: Do you want to know why?

Jamie: OK.

Anne: People say that zero is the opposite of one, right?

Jamie: I suppose so.

Anne: Because one is presence and zero is absence.

Jamie: That's the idea.

Anne: But it's really minus one, though, isn't it?

Jamie: What is?

Anne: The opposite of one. If the opposite of something is its absolute reverse, like its image in a mirror or whatever, then the opposite of one must be minus one. Zero just sits between them both and gives them meaning. So I think that zero isn't a number. I think zero is God.

Jamie: What did you do at university?

Anne: English and philosphy.

Jamie: So I expect zero has a philosophical application?

Anne: Yeah, in psychoanalysis, where the self is represented by one, and the other by minus one. The zero is the mirroring point and therefore the point of separation. It is also the point of identification, alienation and otherness.

Jamie: Where did you read that?

Anne: I didn't. I made it up.

Mind. Blown.

‘Surrender the thing you fear into the hands of God. Turn it right over to God and ask Him to solve it with you. Fear is keeping things in your own hands; faith is turning them over into the hands of God.’
