			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As organic creatures the notion of immortality seems futile. Hence the cognitive creation of the soul. Does the mere desire and thought of such a construct make it so? Perhaps it could be so? If the energy of thought is pushed collectively to a single construct <span id="more-46"></span>perhaps the energy becomes sustained in a realm of cognitive energy. The soul a propagating thought form. A curious proposition.</p>
<p>If thoughts have energy, then they must have a signature. I would therefore propose that the gateway to immortality lies with an original thought.  As I ponder this personal inquiry I am faced with perhaps never having an original thought. A truly birthed concept formed from the virgin void of creation. All inspired insights seem to come from a entanglement of various methodologies and learned constructs, I am hard press to dissect any of my thoughts to the void.</p>
<p>But the soul. That is a collective majesty of man&#8217;s hope and desire for immortality. Perhaps we can extend our self awareness into that construct without organic positioning. It may be our souls is the energy we share for this purpose without the need for a self created construct, an original thought to sustain our personal self.</p>
<p>What then if man ceases to exist. Does the energy of the sustained construct slowly fade and dissipate, or is that the fuel for a dream.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I really dislike spam. I find I need to delete countless thousands of comments without being able to legitimatize the few that are real. So I delete the precious few that belong in a effort to have any sense of organization. Spam is the chief reason I stopped blogging. I hope all spammers feel the combined agony they cause everyone someday, just so they can understand this has no place in my utopia. If this was on my religious page it would go under a Karma entry.  Peace out friends.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>I</strong> am certain within my own understandings the only reason we human beings have announced the presence of a soul, or spirit, is because our need to survive is pushed past the grave. And since there is not a viable, empirical, man-made means of extending life, we create a vessel to carry us forth. Think about it. What religion do you know needs this &#8220;vessel&#8221; if you do not continue past death? I too, find a spirit comforting when pondering life. While I claim no faith in it in any form, I welcome its existence.</p>
<p>I think there is a means of &#8220;interacting&#8221; with spirit, that resides in us all as it interpenetrates the rest of reality. I chose to believe that. I have numerous rationalities, all comforting enough to me to not leave me in despair. However, the &#8220;past death&#8221; thing goes in so many directions for me still I could not be concrete enough to offer an objective view. The best I can do is join in conversations and reach for the moment as it reveals itself to my understandings.</p>
<p>I recall an author from my investigations long ago, (when I was a teen), his name was <a href="http://www.rsarchive.org/" target="_blank">Rudolf Steiner</a>. He coined a phrase I liked, called &#8220;Super-sensible knowledge.&#8221; I think of it as intuition, with a foot in humanity. It seems to come into play for me whenever I let my mind wander.</p>
<p>So, will the deity you follow open the door if I don&#8217;t knock?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A new religion! Check out the page too (top link), I will add things to it later.</p>
<p>Wow&#8230; this could be way fun. I think it should be too, or why bother.  I am hesitant to ramble too much right now. I will say that I personally have a very hard time with blind faith. So I like the old school worshiping of the things tangible. The &#8220;Earth&#8221; for example. The &#8220;Sun&#8221; surely gives us life. Perhaps there is a &#8230;. well&#8230;   I will wait to see if I elicit any response before I continue.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One thing for sure, my utopian ideal would have music of all types. I think music is definitely something special about humanity. One of our redeeming qualities for sure.</p>
<p>My utopia would probably not have propane tanks, but I wanted to share this cool use of an empty one. My  son&#8217;s created these things called Hank Drum&#8217;s. I think named such because some cartoon guy named Hank sells propane. But I was dually impressed. The first couple days after he made his Hank drum he made a YouTube video with it. He improved since this was done, but it will give you the idea.</p>
<p><a title="My son Hank Drumming" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYLx7H8HIlM" target="_blank"><cite>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYLx7H8HIlM</cite></a></p>
<p>So, it was so fun, I made my own Hank Drum eventually.</p>
<p>The reason for these in the first place is many people wanted to create a cheap version of the &#8220;Hang Drum&#8221;. Hang Drums are incredible. They are made by two guys in Switzerland. Word has it they have a patent on the manufacturing process and do not want to sell it or expand their own capacity for creating them. According to internet lore, they have enough orders to do it for the rest of their lives. At $2500 apiece, I&#8217;m thinking they are doing OK. I read somewhere online, it takes two days to make one.</p>
<p>Here is a sample of one being played.</p>
<p><a title="well hung" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rXcdcDB2S8" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rXcdcDB2S8</a></p>
<p>I have watched many of the YouTube videos and always feel like there is hope for humanity after I do.</p>
<p>My beating heart.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>After today’s day at work I have to say this.</strong> I know that my Utopia would not define the efforts of my labors in terms of a currency system based on my depicted worth to our social, cultural, societal aspirations. And no, I do not have something better in mind at the moment, give me a minute. Something inside screams that there has to be a better way.</p>
<p><strong>I do not figure we will last</strong>, odds are against us, hope I am wrong. 96% of all species of life we humans have been able to realize is now extinct. So the odds aren’t good is all I’m saying. Oh-oh &#8211; I am hearing the “not another doomsday preacher” ethers floating my way across the space/time continuum right now. I am not really, I actually hypothesize on all angles. However, as I mentioned in my first posting, I gravitate my postulations around the unknown. Perhaps because you can’t prove me wrong, HA. I might be on to something there.</p>
<p><strong>I am guessing</strong> that the blogger’s pathways are filled with people just like me. Trying to communicate our relations to life as we experience and understand it. Trying to share something a kindred soul might come across and smile at. That seems what I as a person with no focused expertise can use this medium for, mental masturbation I like to call it. I am the one to get the satisfaction from it.</p>
<p><strong>Here is an easy one. A no brainer. The environment.</strong> I preach and shout my stance with spittle and outrage, as I use a computer and consume an ex-ordinate amount of resources to enjoy my lifestyle. I know I am a huge hypocrite in this area. Nature is truly my deepest spiritual source of reverence. If I had to identify with any religion it would be one of Gaia <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_hypothesis">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_hypothesis</a> concepts of some sort. While many of the American Indians were as bloody and savage to each other as we seem to be, I like their religious thing much better than most our “Anglos” practice. &#8230;   mmm, not too many heathen ethers, coo.</p>
<p><strong>Well I will take a quick stab at something concrete.</strong> What about 6 hour days, two shifts! We could have like a symbiotic relationship worker thing. Slight over lap when needed to maintain projects and work. Maybe meetings on Fridays to add to the cohesive nature of our work partner. I am sure I could work out the economics. It would certainly employee everyone. It would drastically increase our productivity. People would be happier and perhaps healthier with more time to pursue other things in life.</p>
<p>Well, its a thought.</p>
