Mainly there were not books, but there was always the life. The life was the most influence for my philosophy.If you want to know at the least one book, then I say it was a good dictionary.
I'm sorry, Zinnat, but I dont think so. You said (for example):Zinnat wrote:
I dont think that Nietzsches texts are difficult to understand - the revers is true: Nietzsches texts are easy to understand. Nietzsche said this and that, there are some contradictions in his texts, but they as such are not difficult to understand.
If you are in love with philosophy because of aesthetics, then please let me know.

It seems to be a translation problem. Spirit as the common translated German word Geist also refers to those Platonic forms or essences that lack any physical volume. Concept as the common translated German word Begriff (Konzept, Idee) also refers to those Platonic forms or essences that lack any physical volume. So if I translate those two words - spirit and concept -, I always get those Platonic forms or essences that lack any physical volume.Howsoever, do you agree with me that there are material and non-material forms of existence?

History has not ended yet, although it seems to sink, to go down, to decline, to shrink.History cant have ended yet because the historical existentials havent ended.Arminius wrote:
There is no doubt that some of those examples of historical existentials have been shrinking, while other historical existentials have been expanding.
So the historical existentials state (=> 5.), city and country as contrast (=> 7.), education, especially in schools and universities (=> 8.), science (=> 9.), order of sexulality / demographics, economics (=> 10.), and last but not least historiography / awareness of history (=> 11.) will probably disappear during the next future, provided that humans will be alive then. But we still don't know whether the historical existentials religion (=> 1.), rule (=> 2.), nobleness (=> 3.), classes (=> 4.), graet war (=> 6.) will end as long as humans are alive.
James S. Saint wrote:
So the whole spiritual part of life - for example principles, laws, rules, ideas, and all the other special cases of a concept - would have to remain in the spiritual / conceptual / energetic realm of existence and cant reach the other realm, the physical / material realm, if a physical potential (as the situation) hadnt occured. |

Here you said that I should use the word energy instead of spirit:
Here you said spirit and energy don't mix:

If the word spirit has really become ambiguous (**), then it should also not refer to the physical realm (**). In this case ambiguous means that the reference is not clear, thus there is no refernce to both the conceptual realm and the physical realm. |

I prefer rock, especially progressive rock music and jazz rock music, partly also pop music, folk music, electronic/techno music, and - last but not least - classical music!When it comes to determine the time of the best music during my previous life I designate the 1960s, especially the late 1960s, and the 1970s, especially the early 1970s.Now you can easily guess how old I am, can't you?For Pythagoras, the world was a harmonious whole, an eternal, divine being: the cosmos. The world harmony was musical for him. Pythagoras had recognised that numerical relations arrange for the harmonic series of tones.If all humans had merely a bit more music in their souls (and not in their supermarkets), they would be much more happy, peaceful, and satisfied. |

I think the Greek word nous (nous), the German words Geist, Vernunft, Verstand, Intellekt Idealität, Ideal(e), Idee, Begriff, Vorstellung, Konzept, Plan, and others describe very well what you mean by conceptual realm. Strangely but according to what you said, the English word spirit doesnt fit very well, although its German translation is often but not only Geist. But okay, I should prefer to follow your advice and avoid as much as possible the word spirit when it comes to the conceptual realm.

The common physicists assume that the red shift (Hubble effect) is an effect of the Doppler effect.James S. Saint wrote:
This is also the reason why science (as science!) simply does not get further. But it gets further as religion, as a new religion. Those of the common physicists who are honest say that they are too stupid to get further - I say they are already too religious to get further. Science had its great time long ago, and its time is not yet over but is going to be over in the relatively near future, full of dogmas and no science anymore because dogmas are a certain sign for religion. How many dogmas has science already accumulated? |

There are two hostile groups within one society: (1) the powerful one of the rulers (controllers), and (2) the powerless one of those who are ruled (controlled). Roughly calculated 1% are powerful and 99% are powerless.
You see that conspiracy and conspiracy theories are mainly the issue of the powerful 1% and not of the powerless 99%.A)
Those of the 1% who assume someone who is a member of the 99% to be a conspiracy

Relating to the process of awareness / consciousness there are two ways: (1) the way from semiotical, linguistical operations to logical (philosophical), mathematical operations, (2) the way from mathematical operations to logical (philosophical), linguistical, semiotical operations.Some of the non-human living beings have consciousness, but they have a very much smaller brain and less consciousness than the human beings have. Only human beings have such very, very complex conscious systems, especially the linguistical, the logical (philosophical), and the mathematical system. Let's say that some of the non-human living beings have a pre-consciousness because the diffrence between their consciousness and the consciousness of the human beings is too large.An example:A lioness instinctively »knows« how much cubs she has. When one or more of them are lost, she realises it, but she can't count like humans can. At first the lioness goes the conscious way 1 without any linguistical and logical operations (see above), thus from the semiotical operations (sign: lost cubs) to the mathematical operation (all cubs missing cubs), and then she goes the conscious way 2 without logical and linguistical operations (see above), thus from the mathematical operations (for example: 7 2 = 5) to the semiotical operation (sign= less cubs). The mathematics in the brain of the lioness works but she doesn't consciously »know« that it works.Another example:A predator must be able to calculate the worth of attacking a prey. If it is not profitable or even too dangerous, it is better to protect oneself and to gather forces. A predator with a broken leg can hardly catch a prey; a predator with a broken lower jaw can hardly eat a prey: a predator without a tongue can hardly drink. Predators must instinctively »know« much about their environment and their skills, their risks, what is possible and what is too dangerous.In order to survive the non-human living beings don't need such a complex brain, such a complex awareness / consciousness, especially such complex systems of language (linguistics) and logic (philosophy), as the human beings have. Human beings are luxury beings (**|**|**|**|**|**).Human beings can say: I don't want to eat today because tomorrow or later I am going to eat a Sacher torte. The evolution of the luxury beings means the process of winning more and more luxury at the cost of losing more and more instincts, means becoming less and less beings of adaptation to the environment but more and more beings of alienation, of insulation. Nevertheless, human beings are also predators, but they are luxury predators because they are luxury beings. |
