Holden,

Thank you for your words and the video. I watched it and found it most interesting. A female had a crush on me as they say in American English, well a female mosquito hit me with dengue again. That´s the only female, I suppose, that´s going to hit me. Hahaha.

Life is strange. The robust Schopenhauer wrote about how abhorrent life is while the convalescent Nietzsche glorified life.

I could add that the Paraguayan mind is also obsessed with feeding and breeding given the fact that we are already almost 8 million inhabitants. The Will to life is alive and kicking. Never mind about the coronavirus and all kinds of plagues, the genitals will still be working full time. While reading this post I heard on the radio that in Ciudad del Este on the border with Brazil a grandmother, a mother and a daughter were found in a car. The grandmother was hanged, the mother was suffocated but the daughter was allowed to live. Most of us are absorbed by the blue pill, the MKultra TV, sex and reproduction.

I wish I was one of those who attended Schopenhauer´s lectures. Maybe I was there.

You may find this interesting. An archaeologist called Sam Osmanagich wrote about his experiences while visiting the abandoned Anasazi settlements in the New Mexico, Colorado, Utah, and Arizona. Long before Columbus arrived the Anasazi Indians were lords of what is now the U.S. Southwest. Then without warning they vanished around 1290.

In his talks his guide called Melvin said that, “Well, the Anasazi seers were able, by taking great risks, to see the indescribable power which was the source of all living beings. They called it the Eagle.”. “Why the Eagle?” asked Osmanagich. Melvin replied: “In the few flashes that they were able to withstand, they saw something which looked to them like a black and white eagle of an enormous size.” “They saw that the Eagle gives consciousness and knowledge. He creates beings so that they can live and enrich the consciousness and knowledge given to them.” “And then what?” Osmanagich asked. Melvin replied: “They saw that this developed consciousness leaves the being after death and moves directly to the Eagle … and is swallowed up by it.” Melvin carefully and slowly pronounces this awesome truth."

Osmanagich asked: “Do you mean to say that the only reason for our existence is to enrich the consciousness with our life's experience … and that this consciousness serves the cosmic force as food?” Melvin once again said: “The Anasazi seers saw that living beings are here to enrich the consciousness which becomes the food of the Eagle. From ancient times to the present. And forever,” Melvin concludes. “So much for the discoveries of the Anasazi seers,” said Osmanagich.

Stay safe.
