🧐😬🙄An #ImpulseRead that was…not worth the listen imo. Should have been a DNF!

Magic through a scientific lens. Super interesting.

“It is sometimes an appropriate response to reality to go insane.“

Remembering Philip K. Dick on his birthday.

I was totally charmed by this category defying book. It‘s part biography (of 3 different people from 3 different interests and times) and part history of philosophy; it‘s a damn good read. I let it lead my imagination through space-time and beyond. Now I‘m obsessed with Borges. Such an excellent and inspiring book! ⏳ 🌌 📚

I tell you, I am in every flower, every rainbow, every star in the heavens, and
everything in and on every planet rotating around every star.

Now I tell you this: Know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.

“When I was 19, my father knew nothing. But when I was 35, I was amazed at how much the Old Man had learned.“Mark Twain captured it perfectly. Your younger years were never meant to be for truth teaching but for truth-gathering. How can you teach children a truth you haven't yet gathered? You can't, of course. So you'll wind up telling them the only truth you know—the truth of others. Your father's, your mother's, your culture's, your religion's.

First you “be“ the thing called “happy“ (or “knowing,“ or “wise,“ or “compassionate,“
or whatever), then you start “doing“ things from this place of beingness—and soon
you discover that what you are doing winds up bringing you the things you've always wanted to “have.“
