THE WHITE RABBIT'S RUN.





When the child's organism is struck by pains too big to be consciously confronted, these pains are buried in our limbic system before they lethally clash with consciousness and their resolution is postponed to some future time. This is how the psychological momentum of TIME is generated. The Present Instant is not lived for itself anymore but as a support to the expectations we have from the close or distant future. Our thoughts create a cognitive and therefore virtual stream of TIME using present events in order to symbolically solve this past that grumbles in us, soundlessly screaming to be answered. Kind of silent cry which stifled exerts an inner pressure that deteriorates our body's functioning and our behvior.

In other words we are extracted from Reality in us and identified with our thoughts which are longing for the future where, unconsciously, they hope finding the resolution to a destroyed past. Unfortunately this not possible.

Enclosed in the bubble of our thoughts like in a space shuttle we are unable to land on the ground of the Present Instant which, nonetheless, is the only valve from which we can release the presssure of our unresolved pains because the only spot where Reality's essence can be encountered.
Just like the White Rabbit we always run and run, unable to experience BEING in us, or Reality's INFINITE essence, symbolized by Lewis Carroll as the Wonderland.

The child's sensorial window is wide open, this means that since even before birth s(he) is highly sensitive. As would put it Martin Heidegger, the dreadful occured when the child crashed against the adults' wall which, even if adults are not aware of it, is highly insensitive, blind and deaf, hard like a protective shell.

The fact that our society very seriously 'thinks' that robots can reach the human level of aliveness shows only one thing: we have reach, through our disconnection from Reality in us, a level of insensitivity close to the robot's level. This is us humans that are becoming robots through identification with thoughts, and these poor machines are but artefacts with which we deceive ourselves, playing the role of some pathetic gods.

LIFE gushes from the depth of Reality's INFINITE essence or BEING in us, and therefore cannot be tinkered with thoughts' miserable calculations, thoughts being themselves but limited constructions.
When identified with our thoughts we are the only animals that are disconnected from Reality within themselves and also the only animals destroying Nature at a planetary scale. There's of course a deep connection between being disconnected from Reality in us and destroying Reality around us.
Unfortunately, serious people are most often blind to their own disconnection from Reality and they cling to their fake and cognitive identity with the force of despair. Just like the White Rabbit they always run after a future where they hope to find the solutions to all their problems but in vain. Doing so they leave totally unexplored the Present Instant which, like the hole into which Alice fell, leads to the bottomless ground of Reality's INFINITE essence and its enchantment.

Running like the White Rabbit is not serious at all. It is in fact a sheer escape...and a stupid one since what we are escaping from can be solved only in the Present Instant and not through the virtual process TIME. So, get down your cogntive and crazy horse, sit on the ground and just BE what you ARE right now. This is where everything starts.

A MAD, MAD, MAD WORLD

The IPCC warned us in its latest report, that we should bring back our CO2 emissions to 50% of what they were in the year 1990 and this before 2020, if we want to keep our planet within the 2° degrees. And the IPCC bases this prevision on the most optimistic scenario. Indeed, during the last decades, the scientists forcasts about Global Warming have been constantly revised upwards. The cascading effet is pretty uncertain and, for instance, we don't know the exact impact of CH4 emissions through the warming of the oceans and the melting of the permafrost. Lima Conference on Climate ends with ridiculous and criminal decisions about CO2 reduction: Reducing CO2 emissions from 40% by 2050 is just nonsense. You can no more haggle over with Global Warming that, for instance, you can haggle over with a fire that transforms your house in a furnace. You cannot say to the blaze: "stop, wait 20 minutes until the firemen arrive". The United States found $ 3000 billion just for I

DIRECTLY CAPTURING CO2 FROM THE ATMOSPHERE

Image
Direct air capture is the process of chemically scrubbing carbon dioxide directly from the ambient air, and then storing it either underground or in long-lived products. This new technology is similar to the carbon capture and storage technology used to capture emissions from sources like power plants and industrial facilities. The difference is that direct air capture removes excess carbon directly from the atmosphere, instead of capturing it at the source.  It is relatively straightforward to measure and account for the climate benefits of direct air capture, and its potential scale of deployment is enormous. But the technology remains costly and energy-intensive. It is often difficult to pin down costs for new direct air capture technologies, but a 2018 study estimates that it would cost about $94-$232 per metric ton. Earlier estimates were higher.  Direct air capture also requires substantial heat and power inputs: scrubbing 1 gigaton of carbon dioxide from the air could require ne

What can you do to save the planet Earth?

What can you do to save the planet Earth? You might have had this question popping up in your mind – “What can I do alone to save the environment?” Actually, there are thousands of people like you who have the similar thought in mind, amidst that dilemma and hesitation, no one’s taking a step. But you, alone, have the power to initiate, and those thousands will eventually follow you. No step is a small step, and every contribution matters in its own way. While caring for the planet isn’t a matter to be saved for June 5, however, it’s a good time to start today and take the pledge to do whatever you can, in order to achieve a sustainable environmental development. Organize a cleaning drive: That’s something you can easily do! You have organized parties before, this time, organize a cleaning drive. Call your friends, friends of friends, office colleagues, acquaintances and family members to be a part of this act. Gather in your neighbourhood or a popular market area and clea
