To quiet the mind, make a clear distinction between yourself and its inner motor. Stop yourself at first, but you can’t control the entire movement of the mind—so just allow the motor to spin down the rest on its own.

Inspiration is more about the energetic state of mind rather than the ideational, the semantic.
When ideas have properly signed the mind, like matching keys, but mainly when the mind itself has reached a top state, especially in a general, physical sense, then there will be wonderful results brought about by inspiration.
The idea of what you truly like is one of the first impulses boosting energy in forming inspiration. However, the overall underlying context here is usually broader and lies somewhat deeper as it is partly hidden in the subconscious streams.
True inspiration is a cutting-edge blend of glowing will to the world, that is, a power.
It’s good to always remember: everything is temporary; the essence of the world is to constantly evolve.
Void… see the emptiness inside and through yourself, in fact it is there: the empty space in the stomach, between and inside the parts of the body, inside atoms, the emptiness between thoughts…
This emptiness
You are kind of permeable
Don’t rush time; later, you’ll realize how irreversible it was. Get the most of each moment; our life is so short.
I call it an information revolution rather than a tech revolution because the fundamental changes are driven by information.
In fact, information touches everything and is a deeper phenomenon than technology or machines, that’s why are experiencing more changes than ever before.
The ongoing infromation revolution is a catalyst, driving massive global change. In such a dynamic environment, avoid relying on stability. Be prepared to let go of anything, stay adaptable and ready for both challenges and opportunities.
The effort towards a perfect ideal is absurd; fluctuations and disparities are embedded in the very nature of the Universe.
Instead of hard perfectionism, a bit of nonchalance can lead to a more harmonious results.
Interest… how does it manifest itself, and how is it formed in our minds?
Interest is the will that guides a situation based on the values our minds have adapted to.
Who are we without our interests? Beyond any particular interests, we are shaped by the values we have been able to comprehend.
In human interactions, direct confrontation is utterly useless. It’s always a delicate game of interpreting meanings.
Focus on easy way, as if playing, only then will you succeed in any endeavor.
Don’t strain yourself much; “forcing will” strategy can only last for a short time.
If you really need to master a certain topic, you’re to trick yourself into getting interested and make yourself love it
The sky is blue… but only we see it like this; actually, it’s contains more details. And not only the sky.
Many abstractions like countries or feelings also have an even more subjective connotation.
The whole world we perceive is extremely subjective.
The one who can and has enough honesty and strength to see the truth and perspective of distance is really to be alive, not illusions and phantoms; it’s all short-term… By the way, learn to recognize pain as well; life is a complex tapestry of all possible experiences.
In the long run, you can’t ignore reality as it is. The path to true success (not luck or fortune based) lies in merging with reality and accepting it. The reality beyond our consciousness is very real, and we certainly don’t see it to the end.
Human being… not only builds, but also destroys as much.
Sometimes some people, under certain circumstances, just have fun destroying everything in a brazen way.
Don’t try to search for universal justice, this world is created to boil and rebuild again and again… whatever the struggle – the worst will lose sooner or later.
I like to turn off everything and just contemplate.
I like keeping it minimal, without internet, news, consumerism, and no worries: take the maximum of your time and the minimum of what could grab it, fully aware and complete in this time, we’ve got so little of it actually; why ever hurry, anyway you are going to die and will never predict it all.
That acceptance of “nothing” gives you space of thought, gives you time to understand.
No, it’s not like Buddhist meditation. You don’t hide yourself behind breathing exercises. You face this reality directly as it is, head-on.
I am not anticipating new music. I mean, exceptionally new music, like modern electronics compared to the 19th century.
Do you expect electricity to be discovered again? Well, new music is electricity. Such significant discoveries happen rarely…
There’s no point in rushing here, and what was relevant in the 90s, when electricity delved into digital, can still be relevant today. Who said 30 years is a far past? That stage is still here, and it might last for two hundred years, who knows.
Neural networks can bring new sounds, but more likely – quantum computers.
Today’s question is: do we all truly need new things so much? Perhaps today’s rush is just a blur.
Are you waiting for the new forms? What they could be like?

A useful method to check if something is suitable or not is to catch the very first impression, the very first imprint from the consciousness when you come into contact with something. Then examine it honestly, before any biases or preconceived notions influence your conclusions.
What has already crossed our minds may be contaminated or masked either by our own thoughts or by the source of the content.
This method can help filter out junk and noise because almost immediately, any perception is absorbed through the sponge of consciousness and is colored the subtext.
However, that was primarily discussed in relation to aesthetics.
Ethics can be manipulated through aesthetics, so you might need additional filtering.
I refer to it as a “perspective filter.” When dealing with morals, laws, politics, or any other human-related issues, before forming an opinion, you usually make a basic examination of how it might unfold in the long run. Then, true “good” or “bad” may come to your internal eye.

Language is a map of understanding, experiences transformed into a structured code.
Knowledge is stable and reality-proven form of that code, while disinformation might not be actually real – it’s a phantom intended to generate quick profits regardless of consciousness.
In the early years of life, even humans do not experience contemplation in the full sense of the word.
There is merely an awareness of current existence, even before the formation of speech and the general conceptual apparatus. It is during this time that the first memories are formed…
In other words, consciousness is partly shaped by the external environment, and naturally based on the foundation of mind and memory – the upper layer is language and memory. This is where consciousness further reflects and exists by itself…
Were you, in the truest sense, in understanding and rational perception of the world before your first memories, that is, around the ages of 3-4 or 5?
A human is designed in such a way that even wrong may benefit them. We inherit this from nature as a whole. Dinosaurs didn’t work out, so it did even better – just developed another scenario.
Depth of darkness opens opportunities. Some imbalance provides true balance. If anything were extra smooth and perfect, without any movement, there would be no good. Good is just other side of bad.
