The heart is called Yi [unified power] becuz when intent moves, spirit is agitated; qi is dispersed. Qi is the Mother of spirit; Spirit is the child of qi. The Mother as qi is the horse that guides/conducts the river chariot (yin spirit) in the water (yin jing). Once your mind is away from the lower Elixir Field, your Qi will be led away from it and be consumed. By gathering the Shen into the lower tan tien then the Qi follows it there. Light of eyes descend as Yang fire inner yin qi line

Taoist Yoga: alchemy and immortality ..."For human beings are nothing but the gathering of ch'i: they live whenever the ch'i concentrates, they die when the ch'i disperses. Nothing is more abominable to Chuang-tzu than "governing the world," since Tao in the form of yin-yang unity is the origin of everything and exercises supreme dominion over the human and cosmic worlds....the unity of yin and yang result in harmony, and that through this unity things are produced. A comparable insight is to be found in Heraclitus: "Harmony consists of opposing tension, like that of the bow and lyre." Thaddesu T'ui-chieh Hang, Taipei, "The Unity of Yin and Yang: A Philosophical Assessment" for Anaximander: the heavenly bodies uttered a flute-like whistle and the circles that carry the stars have "flute-like" pipes with breathing holes through which the fire bursts forth when they are not blocked up. It seems certain that the pressurized fiery vapour escaping from these [ancient Greek] must make sounds or notes that reflect the size and diameter of the pipe, rather like the sound of huge pan pipes played across the dark and misty heavens.

Only then could you be accepted to train in five years of silence but you still could not actually see Pythagoras yet. After five years then you were allowed to speak to Pythagoras but still only from behind a veil with him hidden. Xenocrates (4th Century BCE) followed Pythagorean tradition in defining the substance of the soul as 'number moving itself',24 and this on its own suggests that the fragment may be authentic to him.

the Lorentz transformations are noncommutative though! this is the emphasis of Professor Alberto Martinez. thanks - I'm enjoying his summary and overview of Einstein's relativity - very fascinating and lucid!! Tim Maudlin promotes the de Broglie-Bohm model but Basil J. Hiley realized that the de Broglie-Bohm model is actually noncommutative.

Hi Dr. Dan Linford: Thanks for your new youtube talk. I was listening to the youtuber's previous yt talk with Robyn Walsh and so listened to you also. Have you read Prof. Alberto Martinez' work on Einstein relativity? He emphasizes that Lorentz transformations are noncommutative. My background is music theory but I took quantum physics from Herbert J. Bernstein - and then I realized that Fields Medal math professor Alain Connes connected the same areas as I did - as noncommutativity. Basil J. Hiley, the collaborator of Bohm, also emphasized noncommutativity and I corresponded with Hiley several times. It's quite fascinating how other scientists ignore the noncommutativity - even if they claim to understand the de Broglie-Bohm model. My emphasis is quantum biology so I can't disconnect cosmology from the acceleration of "biological annihilation" on Earth (just googlescholar that term for details).
I did get an academic paper published recently - December 2024:
Cosmos and History (open access) Noncommutativity music as biophysics.
I corresponded with Tim Maudlin whom you mentioned and also Jean Bricmont sent me his NYU talk that he gave for Maudlin's group - I uploaded it to my channel.

There should be a book coming out soon on continuing Basil J. Hiley's work but like I said - it's amazing how other physicists ignore noncommutativity. Penrose admitted on youtube that he's not good at noncommutative quantum algebra math.
thanks,

Abraham Pierce of Plymouth and Duxbury and Mr. John Peirce of London is a deed of 1629, recorded on page 7 of the [Records of the Colony of New Plymouth vol. 12]... dated 28 Sept. 1629, Abraham Peirce sells to Thomas Clark... [acre of land described in very similar ways to 1623 granted to "Mr. [John] Pierce's servants."] ... As it was common practice for a merchant adventurer in England to employ a young relative as servant or agent in the New World, it would seem highly probably that Abraham Pierce of Plymouth was indeed a close relative of Mr. John Peirce of London
Robert Marten, director of programs at Plimouth Plantation, a recreation of the Pilgrim's settlement, said that the black settler, named Abraham Pearce, apparently owned land, voted and had equal standing with other members of the community.
Some historians have thought for years that there was a black Pilgrim, but Mr. Marten said it was only recently that researchers were able to substantiate the claim.
By combing through the colony's records, researchers believe that Pearce settled in Plymouth in 1623, three years after the first settlers arrived on the Mayflower. Listed as a 'Blackamoor'
The only reference to Pearce's race is a colony record dated 1643, listing the names of men available to serve in the Plymouth militia. The list said: ''Abraham Pearce, blackamoor.''
Other records indicate that he came to Plymouth as an indentured servant aboard the Anne, a ship that sailed from England in 1623. Researchers believe that Pearce was born in the West Indies and was brought to Jamestown, Va., as a slave in 1619.
When Plymouth was incorporated in 1633, Pearce was listed as a freeholder and a voting member of the community. He died in 1673.

The toilet turns human waste into compost using mycelia, the root network of mushrooms. The MycoToilet, inside the small cedar-sided building, has been dropped in among the trees at the university's Botanical Garden for a six-week test run.
The toilet separates liquids from solids, with the solid waste going into a mycelium-lined compartment, where lab tests have shown 90 per cent of the odour-causing compounds are absorbed.
So they're using the conveyor belt system that "flushes" the number two into a separate chamber outside - behind the actual toilet container, thereby getting rid of the source of smell.... the mycelium then eats up the e. coli smell from behind.... genius...
