"Intuition is for thinking what observation is for perception. Intuition and observation are sources of knowledge."
🌠Rudolf Steiner
So, after listening for an hour and five minutes or ten minutes, is there a learning, is there an awakening of intelligence, is there a sense of order in our lives, or we are going back to the same routine? So, sirs and ladies, if you have that intelligence, that goodness, that sense of great love, then you will create a marvellous new society where we can all live happily. It's our earth, not Indian earth or the English earth or the Russian earth, it's our earth where we can live happily, intelligently, not at each other's throats. So please give your heart and mind to find out why you don't change, even little things. They say, don't smoke. You get up immediately, begin to smoke. Sir, please, pay attention to your own life. You have got extraordinary capacities, sirs. It's all waiting for you to open the door.
J. Krishnamurti

“All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a Thousand Enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first, they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed."
(Richard Adams. Art by Art of Maquenda)
When people start talking about astrolabes, sextants, and navigation as if they’ve always been based on a globe, I genuinely have to laugh. I don’t “claim” they were built for a flat plane — it’s documented history, and the geometry is impossible to argue with. Every ancient navigation instrument ever created was designed around straight lines, flat baselines, and planar trigonometry. Not one of them required, measured, or even hinted at curvature.
The astrolabe — one of the oldest scientific instruments on Earth — is literally a flat disc. Its mathematics are entirely planar: straight chords, straight angles, flat projections. The early mariner’s astrolabe, the kamal, the quadrant, the backstaff — all of them assume a flat water surface and a level horizon. They wouldn’t even work on a curved baseline. The fact they guided ships thousands of miles with perfect reliability is already enough to end this argument.
Then you get to the sextant, and this is where it becomes embarrassing for anyone still repeating “but spherical trig!”. A sextant only works because the Earth is treated as a flat plane. The fundamental formula:
requires a straight, level horizon and a planar triangle. There is no curvature in that geometry. None. The entire device is built on the assumption that the line from your eye to the horizon is straight and the baseline underneath it is flat. That’s why “dip correction” even exists — because the sextant only works on a flat plane, so later globe believers had to insert a correction to force a flat instrument to mimic a curve it wasn’t designed for. The same applies to refraction correction, height-of-eye correction, semi-diameter correction, parallax correction… every one of these patches was bolted on after the fact to retrofit spherical assumptions onto a flat-working device.
If the Earth truly had curvature, there would be no need for dozens of corrections trying to bend flat math into spherical expectations. The original sextant tables worked flawlessly without any of these adjustments — spherical corrections were introduced centuries later, once people started believing in a globe and needed the instruments to match the belief.
And even today, every real-world navigation system still uses flat geometry. Aviation uses flat Cartesian coordinates and never applies curvature corrections. Surveyors use flat grids for everything except massive regional projects, and even then they use linear approximations, not true curvature. GPS trilaterates using straight lines in a 3D Cartesian grid — not spherical trigonometry. Nautical charts are Mercator projections — flat by definition. Nobody flies, sails, builds, maps, or engineers using a curved baseline. The only place curvature exists is in textbook illustrations and imagination.
So yes — I’m very aware of how astrolabes and sextants work, and I’m very aware that people only start talking about spherical trig after the fact to defend a model that the instruments themselves never needed. The historical record is simple, the geometry is unambiguous, and the engineering is brutal: navigation was built on a flat plane, works on a flat plane, and still operates on flat-plane math to this day.
You will never, ever, find large standing bodies, of curving water. The optical illusion of the horizon is not curvature, no matter how many fairy-wings you sacrifice on the altar of Ba'al. Your fantasy-ball never has, never will, exist, except within your childish brainwashed imaginations.

bhagwan Shri Osho and j krishnamurti
We know that among Krishnamurti’s followers and readers, more than 50% are also genuine admirers of Bhagwan Shri Rajneesh. To say this wholeheartedly, Osho was a compassionate person; he offered psychology to people with great compassion. Krishnamurti spoke about the same things, but in very brief and direct words. The only difference was in the style — one expressed clarity with compassion, while the other expressed clarity through directness. We do not see any contradiction or disagreement in this.

🌞✨ Off-grid life hits different.
Imagine no utility bills, fresh food growing in your hallway, your own solar power station, and rainwater on tap… all while chilling in a home made from recycled materials.
Low cost. Low stress. High vibe. 🌿⚡
Sustainability isn’t just a trend — it’s a flex.
Who else wants to live like this? 👀👇

"Q: Is there any higher goal at all?
U.G.: The so-called "highest goal" is like the horizon. The further you move towards it, the further it recedes. The goal, like the horizon, is not really there. It is a projection of your own fear and it moves away from you as you pursue it. How can you keep up with it? There is nothing that you can do. Still, it is desire that keeps you moving; no matter in which direction you move, it is the same."
~ Mind is a Myth. UG Krishnamurti
Batman and Deadpool’s new crossover takes a wild turn when Batman is killed and thrown into a Lazarus Pit, only to rise again as Dark Claw, the long-lost ’90s fusion of Batman and Wolverine. This hybrid character hasn’t appeared in nearly three decades because of legal issues tied to the old Amalgam Universe, but the crossover uses the pit’s chaotic magic to bring him roaring back into the story. The return happens after Batman is taken out by cartoon assassins, leaving Deadpool to drag his body to one of Ra’s al Ghul’s Lazarus Pits in a desperate attempt to save him. Instead of coming back as himself, he emerges as Logan Wayne, the deadly combination of Bruce Wayne’s skills and Wolverine’s powers.
Dark Claw has Adamantium claws, healing abilities, heightened senses, sharp detective instincts, and all of Batman’s resources, making the transformation a huge moment in the issue. The resurrection immediately throws everything into chaos. Dark Claw wakes up in classic Lazarus Pit rage and attacks Deadpool, kicking off a brutal fight that fans never expected to see. Deadpool blasts him repeatedly before Dark Claw finally regains control and shifts back into Batman. It’s a brief but historic comeback for a character many thought would never return, and the issue is available now as DC / Marvel: Batman / Deadpool #1.
The Earthship School in Haiti, designed by Michael Reynolds, is still standing as an example of resilience toward natural phenomena.
In the wake of the recent hurricanes and earthquakes, people have come together in these buildings for shelter and protection.
This has resulted in the buildings being referred to locally as “The Strong Ones”.
Earthship Biotecture would like to thank everyone involved with causing this to happen.

Geometry isn't just decoration,it influences how we feel within a space 🙌🏼
The Earth has a natural frequency of 7.83 Hz, where our brain is in equilibrium.
Most modern buildings are straight boxes, which distance us from that equilibrium. Curves and arches, like those found in nature, help us relax, concentrate, and be more creative 💡
The shape of a building not only defines its appearance but also how we feel inside it.
It really bugs me when globeheads say there's no up in down in space. That's a horseshit nonsensical claim and an intellectual cop out. They actually think they're smart when they say that. We allegedly have a ball in space with a north and south pole which are physically opposite from one another with a tilt, etc. A northerners up is a southerners down .. sorry, not sorry. Physical reality check.

"Hey everyone! Veterans Off-grid is a non profit that is building sustainable offgrid homes for veterans in need and growing food in the desert. We are located in Taos, New Mexico and would absolutely love for some of you to come visit and learn with us. There are many amazing things to do/see in Taos such as the many hot springs, rafting the Rio Grande, climbing in the gorge, 1.5 million acres of national forest to explore, the ski valley, and of course offgrid living and building education. We ask that you would consider helping us 14 hours a week while you stay with us. There is also plenty of work available in Taos. You will definitely need a vehicle though. You dont have to be a veteran. Thanks for considering coming out for an adventure!"

“Trickster is the god of the threshold in all of its forms.” ~Lewis Hyde
Your inner trickster understands that the cure for certainty is curiosity. The cure for hardened belief is flexible thought. The cure for seriousness is playfulness.
Tapping your inner trickster will give you the courage you will need to go beyond good and evil, beyond outdated notions of “truth,” and beyond cultural modes of rightdoing and wrongdoing. It will propel you into playful nonattachment.
You become the mighty Three-eyed Raven, the quintessential trickster archetype. Perched on high, you see with your third eye the interconnectedness of all things. You see the Infinite Game playing itself out. You see how you are an integral catalyst for the progressive evolution of the species.
With molten mettle and mercurial moxie, you fly straight into the Matrix. You are the glitch it never knew it needed.

If the brain does not function at its highest capacity, it is not capable of being free. Because a dull, shallow, limited, narrow, petty mind merely reacts to its environment, and through that reaction it becomes a slave to that environment. And from this arises the whole problem of extricating oneself from the environment, and not being a slave to every form of influence, direction, urge. So what is important is the quality of feeling to be utterly free.

We don’t live on a big, spinning water rock, hurtling through infinite space at breakneck speed.
The earth is flat. There is no detected curvature.
