Here is a #riddle for the modern #philosopher.
What lies on the border between #agreement and #disagreement?
But doesn't cause people to either #disagree or #agree with its objectives?
It's #medicine.
To be more #specific, the #act of #healing itself.
As a #subconscious #universal #concept.

#Hypatia of Alexandria is a saint of #Antinous for defending Hellenistic principles as Christians stoned her to death in 415 AD. Art: Camille Flammarion, "Hypatia's Observatory at Alexandria" (L'Astronomie Populaire) 1880 #astronomy #WomensHistory #philosopher 
#ScribesAndMakers 2503.28 — What would your best creative life look like if you weren't bound by reality?
In space, if you strike something you also fling yourself away. You need gravity. Something to strive against. You need hills and valleys, don't you? You have to experience the depths to appreciate the clear air of the snowy peaks.
Unbound by reality makes me think my creative life would lose all meaning. #Philosophy #philosopher

It is a peculiarity of man that he can only live by looking to the future.
I need to know something. Maybe the #bluesci comm can help. I am recently a #PhD in #Chem. I am also a practicing amateur #philosopher / #historian who obtained his minor in Phil in undergrad. This means I read original works and commentary as seriously as I do my own sci #research when I can.

Peace is not an absence of war, it is a virtue, a state of mind, a disposition for benevolence, confidence, justice.

partage du sensible (1)
— analog photography
2025
Partage du sensible is a concept developed by the French philosopher Jacques Rancière. It translates roughly to "the distribution of the sensible" and refers to the way in which our perception of the world — what we see, hear, and experience — is structured and organized.
In artistic contexts, partage du sensible highlights how art can challenge or reshape these structures. By shifting focus to overlooked details, marginalized voices, or alternative narratives, artists can create new ways of seeing and understanding the world.

How does the power of non-resistance work? Let's explore the Taoist art of non-resistance, which offers a radically different view of how life works and how to approach it.
[Video Title: The More You Resist, The Worse It Gets | The Taoist Art of Non-Resistance]

For a wrongdoer to be undetected is difficult; and for him to have confidence that his concealment will continue is impossible.
Even a thought, even a possibility, can shatter us and transform us.
If a man does what is good, let him do it again; let him delight in it; happiness is the outcome of good.
Shall I tell you what knowledge is? It is to know both what one knows and what one does not know.
Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something.
This was an excerpt from the video ‘Why the World isn’t as Terrible as We Think (or is it?)’
Realize deeply that the present moment is all you ever have. Make the Now the primary focus of your life.
