若者のLESS THAN HUMAN離れについて

A cool article to understand humans who control TBS ‘s press department, making incredibly incoherent editing, extremely bad biased coverage of the TBS (Mainichi Broadcasting) program of the previous chapter, It is in the topic interview feature by Ms. Yoshiko Sakurai and Mr. Naoki Hyakuta of the monthly magazine WiLL released on the 25th, ‘Japan, regain the history!’

Preamble abridgment.

‘Spirit remodeling’ of GHQ to Japan

Orishima

After the US presidential election in 2016, the fairness of the press has become a worldwide problem as the word ‘fake news’ by President Trump has become a hot topic.

Even in Japan, unilateral criticism of the Abe administration of major media, public opinion manipulation by intentional editing, etc. are rampant.

Alright, when did such biased coverage come to be done?

Hyakuta

I am writing about Japanese history now.

The fact that I realize that I am studying again is that the Japanese ‘spirit remodeling’ by GHQ still has a lasting effect.

Sakurai

The occupation policy of GHQ was unprecedentedly harsh in world history.

Hyakuta

The mind of the Japanese was destroyed by ‘War Gilt Information program’ (masochistic thought) planting sense of atonement.

The American Education for Japan thought education took in the brainwashing know-how that the Chinese Communist Party gave to the prisoners of Japan and the Kuomintang at Yan’an and Nosaka Sanzo also cooperated with the occupation policy of GHQ.

Especially the press code was bad.

A total of 30 items ‘Japanese should not write’ to Japanese newspaper publishers and publishers, for example, criticism of the GHQ, the Allied Powers and the Tokyo Trial were strictly forbidden.

Moreover, criticism of Koreans was forbidden for some reason, too.

Sakurai

We should not say that the Constitution was made by the United States and we were also prohibited from promoting nationalism, so we could not look at Japan obediently.

Of course, we should not reveal the existence of the censorship system itself.

Hyakuta

Besides censorship, a burning book was also held.

They disposed thoroughly unfavorable publication for the Allied Powers at libraries and university museums.

Speaking of burning books, it is famous for history by Qin Shin Emperor and Nazis.

This is the worst cultural destruction, history destruction.

Sakurai

America has dyed hands the same way.

The United States, which says freedom of speech, thought and belief, applied full double standards to Japan.

Eto Jun was the one who pointed out that thing properly.

Hyakuta

Over 7 thousand books were forfeited, those who resist ‘Please leave it as an important document’ was harsh, being sentenced to imprisonment for ten years or less.

In Article 10 of the Potsdam Declaration, it is written that ‘The Government of Japan must promote democracy. Freedom of speech, religion and thought, and respect for fundamental human rights must be established.’

This is a violation of the obvious ‘Potsdam Declaration’ beyond mere double criteria.

Distorted learning

Sakurai

The expulsion of public officials was also terrible.

Because more than 200 thousand people who were assigned the important office, including the government office, were unable to work.

Hyakuta

Ichiro Hatoyama on the verge of being appointed prime minister was also expelled from the public office.

Even those who are not convenient for GHQ will be disposed of even by the Prime Minister candidate, much more ordinary people cannot speak much bad.

Especially, it was the educational circle that was terrible.

Sakurai

Excellent professors of Tokyo University and Kyoto University were also disposed of in large quantities.

Hyakuta

Prior to the war, anarchists and owner of revolutionary thought had been kicked out of the imperial university.

However, after the war, they returned to the teacher one after another finding favor with GHQ, and soon eventually dominated university education.

That idea has penetrated even higher and secondary education, and it reaches now.

Sakurai

There were cases where scholars who had a decent idea turned to change to be loved by GHQ.

A typical example is Toshiyoshi Miyazawa, a constitutional scholar.

Hyakuta

He was critical of the Constitution of Japan and the Constitution of Japan was said to be a ‘pressing constitution’ by GHQ.

However, witnessing the appearance of colleagues purged by GHQ, he changed his thought completely.

Sakurai

It has changed by a hundred and eighty degrees.

Hyakuta

The ‘August Revolutionary Theory’ was started to argue newly.

Briefly, acceptance of the Potsdam Declaration in August 1945 is a kind of revolution, at that time Japan changed from sovereignty of the Emperor to national sovereignty.

In other words, the idea that the Constitution of Japan is the right Constitution made possible by the revolution.

Sakurai

Mr. Miyazawa kept reigning at the top of the Tokyo University Constitutional Course since then.

Hyakuta

In a vertical society university, Miyazawa Constitution Studies will be handed over ‘Thankful words’ by assistant professors and assistant.

In fact, it seems that the University of Tokyo still teaches that the August Revolution theory is correct.

Judging from the fact that the August Revolution theory is also a common theory in the judicial examination, I cannot deny that the JFBA has become a strange organization.

‘Entry Elite’ who entered the University of Tokyo by entrance exam with only memorization let them study such outrageous theory.

Whether it is the Treasury Department or the Ministry of Education, the bureaucrats who are making noise news will surely come from the University of Tokyo law department.

Because they cannot think that things by themselves, ‘pretending to obey but secretly betraying’ and say it is only possible to pull the legs of politics.

Sakurai

A lot of bureaucrats who do not consider the national interest are seen also in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Hyakuta

Another person I would like to introduce is Yokota Kisaburo.

He is also an authority of the university of Tokyo Faculty of Law, but continues to say that the Constitution of Japan is not pressing, and during the occupation it is also issuing a book called ‘Emperor System’ that advocated abolition of the Emperor System.

However, in the later years, when appointed Chief Justice of Japan, he gathered the pupils and purchased his books at an old book store in Kanda for disposal.

‘Indeed, the abolition of the Emperor System was unfavorable’ he thought.

So, I cannot find his book quite easily.

Sakurai

It has done without thinking being ashamed of the horrible thing, too.

What distorted academics is nothing but a tragedy.

The apostasy of the Asahi Newspaper

Hyakuta

If you turn backwards, that is how tightening of GHQ was strict.

Losing your job in Japan, then the poorest country in the world, is literally involved in life and death.

Sakurai

For the people who were expelled, it was such a terrible situation that they were thrown away by the abyss of living or dead in the sense that families had to cultivate.

Hyakuta

Another thing I would like to say is that the civil service bureau of GHQ, who led the expulsion of public office, cannot have enough people to list over 200,000 Japanese.

So, who was it that helped with this?

Sakurai

It is Japanese.

In cooperation with GHQ, there was a Japanese who banished the Japanese.

Hyakuta

Socialists and communists used opportunities of purge of public office to eliminate political enemies.

Even within the company, there seems to be a lot of cases in which the boss and his colleague were kick
ed off and the career was promoted.

* Mr. Takayama Masayuki taught that many Chongryon officials got jobs including NHK, had taken advantage of the mess after the war,

The reason why they, or their descendants, still dominate NHK, TV Asahi, TBS etc. is probably due to chasing down as above *

This draft continues.

LESS THAN HUMAN フィットするって、気持ちいい。

The following is an article published on 2 page of the Sankei Shimbun this morning.

This article suggests that the Asahi Shimbun Company is a villainous company,

That aspect is an unscrupulous company equal to or less than the lowest criminals as people living on the net …

It clearly shows that it is a group of the lowest human beings to discard as human beings.

It is an article that appears evidently as if their articles are hypocritical, which righteousness and assertions that they have talked in paper in a style as if they are democratic guardian deity.

It is also an article proving that the Asahi Shimbun who praised China and the Korean Peninsula continues to write their representative writings because they are also homogenous with them.

Asahi, Japanese version also avoided search

Asahi Shimbun is sophistry as ‘operation erroneous’ after release.

Comfort women net articles

It is a problem that two English articles concerning the comfort women issue of the website ‘Asahi Shimbun Digital’ were set to be unable to search the Internet, it is a problem that was set to be unable to search the internet, even one Japanese article of the same content, ‘Meta tag’ was embedded to prevent users from visiting a specific web page was found.

Although this article was a searchable setting at the time of publication, metatags were embedded later.

Asahi Shimbun Public Relations Division stated, ‘When we got an interview with the Sankei Shimbun on the English version of the tag on August 23, we also checked the Japanese version of the article, at that time the operation of the delivery system was wrong, it turned out that it was changed.’

The meta tag has already been deleted and it is said to be searchable.

The new meta tag was found in the morning edition of the morning edition of August 5, 2014, ‘Thinking about the comfort women issue, the upper part’, published in the Asahi Shimbun Digital on the same day ‘The Volunteer Corps’ Confusion … At the time research was poor and identical’, article.

In the past article, comfort women are said to be, it was mobilized to the front line in the name of ‘girls volunteer party’, about the part that after explained, after making ‘completely different’

Then, it misused by the confusing of a volunteer corps was regarded as being a comfort woman in the material that the research about the comfort woman problem was not moving ahead and that the reporter consulted and so on, too.

According to the confirmation by the service that automatically saves past websites, the search avoidance meta tag did not exist until September 10 last year.

Also, this article was set to be discontinued on April 30, 2019 at 16: 23.

Asahi Shimbun Public Relations Department said, ‘Asahi Digital’s majority of articles will not be released after a certain period.’ The comfort women issue article is Considered to be necessary for long-term disclosure, and in April 2016 the expiration date is set as a temporary setting in 2019’ they explained it.

AJCN representative Mr. Yamaoka Tetsuhide found that the meta tag was embedded in a series of articles.

While conducting an activity seeking to rectify comfort women-related English articles with California lawyer Kent Gilbert and others, he noticed the existence of setting to avoid searching.

Meta tag is a keyword that provides web page information to Google and other search engines.

It makes it difficult to search, and conversely makes it easy to search.

Usually it is not displayed on the web page and cannot be rewritten by a third party.

Three meta tags of ‘noindex’, ‘nofollow’ and ‘noarchive’ were embedded in all the articles in question and it was not possible to search.

Meta tag … Information for specifying the language and characters to use when displaying the document on a web page. Descriptions of the content of the document and keywords are also described. Normally it is not displayed on the screen of a personal computer or the like, but the search engine decides the search ranking with reference to this information.

ゼロ除算の発見と重要性を指摘した:日本、再生核研究所

ゼロ除算関係論文・本


テーマ:

The null set is conceptually similar to the role of the number “zero” as it is used in quantum field theory. In quantum field theory, one can take the empty set, the vacuum, and generate all possible physical configurations of the Universe being modelled by acting on it with creation operators, and one can similarly change from one thing to another by applying mixtures of creation and anihillation operators to suitably filled or empty states. The anihillation operator applied to the vacuum, however, yields zero.

Zero in this case is the null set – it stands, quite literally, for no physical state in the Universe. The important point is that it is not possible to act on zero with a creation operator to create something; creation operators only act on the vacuum which is empty but not zero. Physicists are consequently fairly comfortable with the existence of operations that result in “nothing” and don’t even require that those operations be contradictions, only operationally non-invertible.

It is also far from unknown in mathematics. When considering the set of all real numbers as quantities and the operations of ordinary arithmetic, the “empty set” is algebraically the number zero (absence of any quantity, positive or negative). However, when one performs a division operation algebraically, one has to be careful to exclude division by zero from the set of permitted operations! The result of division by zero isn’t zero, it is “not a number” or “undefined” and is not in the Universe of real numbers.

Just as one can easily “prove” that 1 = 2 if one does algebra on this set of numbers as if one can divide by zero legitimately3.34, so in logic one gets into trouble if one assumes that the set of all things that are in no set including the empty set is a set within the algebra, if one tries to form the set of all sets that do not include themselves, if one asserts a Universal Set of Men exists containing a set of men wherein a male barber shaves all men that do not shave themselves3.35.

It is not – it is the null set, not the empty set, as there can be no male barbers in a non-empty set of men (containing at least one barber) that shave all men in that set that do not shave themselves at a deeper level than a mere empty list. It is not an empty set that could be filled by some algebraic operation performed on Real Male Barbers Presumed to Need Shaving in trial Universes of Unshaven Males as you can very easily see by considering any particular barber, perhaps one named “Socrates”, in any particular Universe of Men to see if any of the sets of that Universe fit this predicate criterion with Socrates as the barber. Take the empty set (no men at all). Well then there are no barbers, including Socrates, so this cannot be the set we are trying to specify as it clearly must contain at least one barber and we’ve agreed to call its relevant barber Socrates. (and if it contains more than one, the rest of them are out of work at the moment).

Suppose a trial set contains Socrates alone. In the classical rendition we ask, does he shave himself? If we answer “no”, then he is a member of this class of men who do not shave themselves and therefore must shave himself. Oops. Well, fine, he must shave himself. However, if he does shave himself, according to the rules he can only shave men who don’t shave themselves and so he doesn’t shave himself. Oops again. Paradox. When we try to apply the rule to a potential Socrates to generate the set, we get into trouble, as we cannot decide whether or not Socrates should shave himself.

Note that there is no problem at all in the existential set theory being proposed. In that set theory either Socrates must shave himself as All Men Must Be Shaven and he’s the only man around. Or perhaps he has a beard, and all men do not in fact need shaving. Either way the set with just Socrates does not contain a barber that shaves all men because Socrates either shaves himself or he doesn’t, so we shrug and continue searching for a set that satisfies our description pulled from an actual Universe of males including barbers. We immediately discover that adding more men doesn’t matter. As long as those men, barbers or not, either shave themselves or Socrates shaves them they are consistent with our set description (although in many possible sets we find that hey, other barbers exist and shave other men who do not shave themselves), but in no case can Socrates (as our proposed single barber that shaves all men that do not shave themselves) be such a barber because he either shaves himself (violating the rule) or he doesn’t (violating the rule). Instead of concluding that there is a paradox, we observe that the criterion simply doesn’t describe any subset of any possible Universal Set of Men with no barbers, including the empty set with no men at all, or any subset that contains at least Socrates for any possible permutation of shaving patterns including ones that leave at least some men unshaven altogether.

 I understand your note as if you are saying the limit is infinity but nothing is equal to infinity, but you concluded corretly infinity is undefined. Your example of getting the denominator smaller and smalser the result of the division is a very large number that approches infinity. This is the intuitive mathematical argument that plunged philosophy into mathematics. at that level abstraction mathematics, as well as phyisics become the realm of philosophi. The notion of infinity is more a philosopy question than it is mathamatical. The reason we cannot devide by zero is simply axiomatic as Plato pointed out. The underlying reason for the axiom is because sero is nothing and deviding something by nothing is undefined. That axiom agrees with the notion of limit infinity, i.e. undefined. There are more phiplosphy books and thoughts about infinity in philosophy books than than there are discussions on infinity in math books.

ゼロ除算の歴史:ゼロ除算はゼロで割ることを考えるであるが、アリストテレス以来問題とされ、ゼロの記録がインドで初めて628年になされているが、既にそのとき、正解1/0が期待されていたと言う。しかし、理論づけられず、その後1300年を超えて、不可能である、あるいは無限、無限大、無限遠点とされてきたものである。

An Early Reference to Division by Zero C. B. Boyer

OUR HUMANITY AND DIVISION BY ZERO

Lea esta bitácora en español
There is a mathematical concept that says that
division by zero has no meaning, or is an undefined expression, because it is impossible to have a real number that could be multiplied by zero in order to obtain another number different from zero.
While this mathematical concept has been held as true for centuries, when it comes to the human level the present situation in global societies has, for a very long time, been contradicting it. It is true that we don’t all live in a mathematical world or with mathematical concepts in our heads all the time. However, we cannot deny that societies around the globe are trying to disprove this simple mathematical concept: that division by zero is an impossible equation to solve.
Yes! We are all being divided by zero tolerance, zero acceptance, zero love, zero compassion, zero willingness to learn more about the other and to find intelligent and fulfilling ways to adapt to new ideas, concepts, ways of doing things, people and cultures. We are allowing these ‘zero denominators’ to run our equations, our lives, our souls.
Each and every single day we get more divided and distanced from other people who are different from us. We let misinformation and biased concepts divide us, and we buy into these aberrant concepts in such a way, that we get swept into this division by zero without checking our consciences first.
I believe, however, that if we change the zeros in any of the “divisions by zero” that are running our lives, we will actually be able to solve the non-mathematical concept of this equation: the human concept.
>I believe deep down that we all have a heart, a conscience, a brain to think with, and, above all, an immense desire to learn and evolve. And thanks to all these positive things that we do have within, I also believe that we can use them to learn how to solve our “division by zero” mathematical impossibility at the human level. I am convinced that the key is open communication and an open heart. Nothing more, nothing less.
Are we scared of, or do we feel baffled by the way another person from another culture or country looks in comparison to us? Are we bothered by how people from other cultures dress, eat, talk, walk, worship, think, etc.? Is this fear or bafflement so big that we much rather reject people and all the richness they bring within?
How about if instead of rejecting or retreating from that person—division of our humanity by zero tolerance or zero acceptance—we decided to give them and us a chance?
How about changing that zero tolerance into zero intolerance? Why not dare ask questions about the other person’s culture and way of life? Let us have the courage to let our guard down for a moment and open up enough for this person to ask us questions about our culture and way of life. How about if we learned to accept that while a person from another culture is living and breathing in our own culture, it is totally impossible for him/her to completely abandon his/her cultural values in order to become what we want her to become?
Let’s be totally honest with ourselves at least: Would any of us really renounce who we are and where we come from just to become what somebody else asks us to become?
If we are not willing to lose our identity, why should we ask somebody else to lose theirs?
I believe with all my heart that if we practiced positive feelings—zero intolerance, zero non-acceptance, zero indifference, zero cruelty—every day, the premise that states that division by zero is impossible would continue being true, not only in mathematics, but also at the human level. We would not be divided anymore; we would simply be building a better world for all of us.

テーマ:数学
Former algebraic approach was formally perfect, but it merely postulated existence of sets and morphisms [18] without showing methods to construct them. The primary concern of modern algebras is not how an operation can be performed, but whether it maps into or onto and the like abstract issues [19–23]. As important as this may be for proofs, the nature does not really care about all that. The PM’s concerns were not constructive, even though theoretically significant. We need thus an approach that is more relevant to operations performed in nature, which never complained about morphisms or the allegedly impossible division by zero, as far as I can tell. Abstract sets and morphisms should be de-emphasized as hardly operational. My decision to come up with a definite way to implement the feared division by zero was not really arbitrary, however. It has removed a hidden paradox from number theory and an obvious absurd from algebraic group theory. It was necessary step for full deployment of constructive, synthetic mathematics (SM) [2,3]. Problems hidden in PM implicitly affect all who use mathematics, even though we may not always be aware of their adverse impact on our thinking. Just take a look at the paradox that emerges from the usual prescription for multiplication of zeros that remained uncontested for some 5000 years 0  0 ¼ 0 ) 0  1=1 ¼ 0 ) 0  1 ¼ 0 1) 1ð? ¼ ?Þ1 ð0aÞ This ‘‘fact’’ was covered up by the infamous prohibition on division by zero [2]. How ingenious. If one is prohibited from dividing by zero one could not obtain this paradox. Yet the prohibition did not really make anything right. It silenced objections to irresponsible reasonings and prevented corrections to the PM’s flamboyant axiomatizations. The prohibition on treating infinity as invertible counterpart to zero did not do any good either. We use infinity in calculus for symbolic calculations of limits [24], for zero is the infinity’s twin [25], and also in projective geometry as well as in geometric mapping of complex numbers. Therein a sphere is cast onto the plane that is tangent to it and its free (opposite) pole in a point at infinity [26–28]. Yet infinity as an inverse to the natural zero removes the whole absurd (0a), for we obtain [2] 0 ¼ 1=1 ) 0  0 ¼ 1=12 > 0 0 ð0bÞ Stereographic projection of complex numbers tacitly contradicted the PM’s prescribed way to multiply zeros, yet it was never openly challenged. The old formula for multiplication of zeros (0a) is valid only as a practical approximation, but it is group-theoretically inadmissible in no-nonsense reasonings. The tiny distinction in formula (0b) makes profound theoretical difference for geometries and consequently also for physical applications. T

10,000 Year Clock
by Renny Pritikin
Conversation with Paolo Salvagione, lead engineer on the 10,000-year clock project, via e-mail in February 2010.

For an introduction to what we’re talking about here’s a short excerpt from a piece by Michael Chabon, published in 2006 in Details: ….Have you heard of this thing? It is going to be a kind of gigantic mechanical computer, slow, simple and ingenious, marking the hour, the day, the year, the century, the millennium, and the precession of the equinoxes, with a huge orrery to keep track of the immense ticking of the six naked-eye planets on their great orbital mainspring. The Clock of the Long Now will stand sixty feet tall, cost tens of millions of dollars, and when completed its designers and supporters plan to hide it in a cave in the Great Basin National Park in Nevada, a day’s hard walking from anywhere. Oh, and it’s going to run for ten thousand years. But even if the Clock of the Long Now fails to last ten thousand years, even if it breaks down after half or a quarter or a tenth that span, this mad contraption will already have long since fulfilled its purpose. Indeed the Clock may have accomplished its greatest task before it is ever finished, perhaps without ever being built at all. The point of the Clock of the Long Now is not to measure out the passage, into their unknown future, of the race of creatur
es that built it. The point of the Clock is to revive and restore the whole idea of the Future, to get us thinking about the Future again, to the degree if not in quite the way same way that we used to do, and to reintroduce the notion that we don’t just bequeath the future—though we do, whether we think about it or not. We also, in the very broadest sense of the first person plural pronoun, inherit it.

Renny Pritikin: When we were talking the other day I said that this sounds like a cross between Borges and the vast underground special effects from Forbidden Planet. I imagine you hear lots of comparisons like that…

Paolo Salvagione: (laughs) I can’t say I’ve heard that comparison. A childhood friend once referred to the project as a cross between Tinguely and Fabergé. When talking about the clock, with people, there’s that divide-by-zero moment (in the early days of computers to divide by zero was a sure way to crash the computer) and I can understand why. Where does one place, in one’s memory, such a thing, such a concept? After the pause, one could liken it to a reboot, the questions just start streaming out.

RP: OK so I think the word for that is nonplussed. Which the thesaurus matches with flummoxed, bewildered, at a loss. So the question is why even (I assume) fairly sophisticated people like your friends react like that. Is it the physical scale of the plan, or the notion of thinking 10,000 years into the future—more than the length of human history?

PS: I’d say it’s all three and more. I continue to be amazed by the specificity of the questions asked. Anthropologists ask a completely different set of questions than say, a mechanical engineer or a hedge fund manager. Our disciplines tie us to our perspectives. More than once, a seemingly innocent question has made an impact on the design of the clock. It’s not that we didn’t know the answer, sometimes we did, it’s that we hadn’t thought about it from the perspective of the person asking the question. Back to your question. I think when sophisticated people, like you, thread this concept through their own personal narrative it tickles them. Keeping in mind some people hate to be tickled.

RP: Can you give an example of a question that redirected the plan? That’s really so interesting, that all you brainiacs slaving away on this project and some amateur blithely pinpoints a problem or inconsistency or insight that spins it off in a different direction. It’s like the butterfly effect.

PS: Recently a climatologist pointed out that our equation of time cam, (photo by Rolfe Horn) (a cam is a type of gear: link) a device that tracks the difference between solar noon and mundane noon as well as the precession of the equinoxes, did not account for the redistribution of water away from the earth’s poles. The equation-of-time cam is arguably one of the most aesthetically pleasing parts of the clock. It also happens to be one that is fairly easy to explain. It visually demonstrates two extremes. If you slice it, like a loaf of bread, into 10,000 slices each slice would represent a year. The outside edge of the slice, let’s call it the crust, represents any point in that year, 365 points, 365 days. You could, given the right amount of magnification, divide it into hours, minutes, even seconds. Stepping back and looking at the unsliced cam the bottom is the year 2000 and the top is the year 12000. The twist that you see is the precession of the equinoxes. Now here’s the fun part, there’s a slight taper to the twist, that’s the slowing of the earth on its axis. As the ice at the poles melts we have a redistribution of water, we’re all becoming part of the “slow earth” movement.

RP: Are you familiar with Charles Ray’s early work in which you saw a plate on a table, or an object on the wall, and they looked stable, but were actually spinning incredibly slowly, or incredibly fast, and you couldn’t tell in either case? Or, more to the point, Tim Hawkinson’s early works in which he had rows of clockwork gears that turned very very fast, and then down the line, slower and slower, until at the end it approached the slowness that you’re dealing with?

PS: The spinning pieces by Ray touches on something we’re trying to avoid. We want you to know just how fast or just how slow the various parts are moving. The beauty of the Ray piece is that you can’t tell, fast, slow, stationary, they all look the same. I’m not familiar with the Hawkinson clockwork piece. I’ve see the clock pieces where he hides the mechanism and uses unlikely objects as the hands, such as the brass clasp on the back of a manila envelope or the tab of a coke can.

RP: Spin Sink (1 Rev./100 Years) (1995), in contrast, is a 24-foot-long row of interlocking gears, the smallest of which is driven by a whirring toy motor that in turn drives each consecutively larger and more slowly turning gear up to the largest of all, which rotates approximately once every one hundred years.

PS: I don’t know how I missed it, it’s gorgeous. Linking the speed that we can barely see with one that we rarely have the patience to wait for.

RP: : So you say you’ve opted for the clock’s time scale to be transparent. How will the clock communicate how fast it’s going?

PS: By placing the clock in a mountain we have a reference to long time. The stratigraphy provides us with the slowest metric. The clock is a middle point between millennia and seconds. Looking back 10,000 years we find the beginnings of civilization. Looking at an earthenware vessel from that era we imagine its use, the contents, the craftsman. The images painted or inscribed on the outside provide some insight into the lives and the languages of the distant past. Often these interpretations are flawed, biased or over-reaching. What I’m most enchanted by is that we continue to construct possible pasts around these objects, that our curiosity is overwhelming. We line up to see the treasures of Tut, or the remains of frozen ancestors. With the clock we are asking you to create possible futures, long futures, and with them the narratives that made them happen.

by  September 08, 2006

When even math shows you that not everything can be figured out with math. When you divide by zero, math kicks you in the shins and says “yeah, there’s kind of an answer, but it ain’t just some number.”

It’s when mathematicians become philosophers.

:
Let’s say you have ZERO apples, and THREE people. How many apples does each person get? ZERO, cause there were no apples to begin with

 because of dividing by zero:
Let’s say there are THREE apples, and ZERO people. How many apples does each person get? Friggin… How the  should I know! How can you figure out how many apples each person gets if there’s no people to get them?!? You’d think it’d be infinity, but not really. It could almost be any number, cause you could be like “each person gets 400 apples” which would be true, because all the people did get 400 apples, because there were no people. So all the people also got 42 apples, and a million and 7 apples. But it’s still wrong.

ゼロ除算の発見と重要性を指摘した:日本、再生核研究所

再生核研究所声明 424(2018.3.29):  レオナルド・ダ・ヴィンチとゼロ除算

次のダ・ヴィンチの言葉を発見して、驚かされた:

ダ・ヴィンチの名言 格言|無こそ最も素晴らしい存在

我々の周りにある偉大なことの中でも、無の存在が最も素晴らしい。その基本は時間的には過去と未来の間にあり、現在の何ものをも所有しないというところにある。この無は、全体に等しい部分、部分に等しい全体を持つ。分割できないものと割り切ることができるし、割っても掛けても、足しても引いても、同じ量になるのだ。

レオナルド・ダ・ヴィンチ。ルネッサンス期を代表する芸術家、画家、彫刻家、建築技師、設計士、兵器開発者、科学者、哲学者、解剖学者、動物学者、ファッションデザイナーその他広い分野で活躍し「万能の人(uomo universale:ウォモ・ウニヴェルサーレ)」と称えられる人物

そもそも西欧諸国が、アリストテレス以来、無や真空、ゼロを嫌い、ゼロの西欧諸国への導入は相当に遅れ、西欧へのアラビヤ数字の導入は レオナルド・フィボナッチ(1179年頃~1250年頃)によるとされているから、その遅れの大きさに驚かされる:

フィボナッチはイタリアのピサの数学者です。正確には「レオナルド・フィリオ・ボナッチ」といいますが、これがなまって「フィボナッチ」と呼ばれるようになったとされています。
彼は少年時代に父親について現在のアルジェリアに渡り、そこでアラビア数字を学びました。当時の神聖ローマ皇帝・フリードリヒ2世は科学と数学を重んじていて、フィボナッチは宮殿に呼ばれ皇帝にも謁見しました。後にはピサ共和国から表彰もされました。

ローマ数字では「I, II, III, X, XV」のように文字を並べて記すため大きな数を扱うのには不便でした。対してアラビア数字はローマ数字に比べてとても分かりやすく、効率的で便利だったのです。そこでフィボナッチはアラビア数字を「算術の書」という書物にまとめ、母国に紹介しました。アラビア数字では0から9までの数字と位取り記数法が使われていますが、計算に使うにはとても便利だったために、ヨーロッパで広く受け入れられることになりました。(

historicalmathematicians.blogspot.com/2012/03/blog-post.html  02/03/2012 -)

ゼロや無に対する恐怖心、嫌疑観は現在でも欧米諸国の自然な心情と考えられる。ところが上記ダ・ヴィンチの言葉は 如何であろう。無について好ましいものとして真正面から捉えていることが分かる。ゼロ除算の研究をここ4年間して来て、驚嘆すべきこととして驚かされた。ゼロの意味、ゼロ除算の心を知っていたかのような言明である。

まず、上記で、無を、時間的に未来と過去の間に存在すると言っているので、無とはゼロのことであると解釈できる。ゼロとの捉え方は四則演算を考えているので、その解釈の適切性を述べている。足しても引いても変わらない。これはゼロの本質ではないか。さらに、凄いこと、掛けても割っても、ゼロと言っていると解釈でき、それはゼロ除算の最近の発見を意味している:  0/1 =1/0=0。- ゼロ除算を感覚的に捉えていたと解釈できる。ところが更に、凄いことを述べている。

この無は、全体に等しい部分、部分に等しい全体を持つ。これはゼロ除算の著書DIVISION BY ZERO CALCULUS(原案)に真正面から書いている我々の得た、達したゼロに対する認識そのものである:

{\bf Fruitful world}\index{fruitful world}

\medskip

For example, in very and very general partial differential equations, if the coefficients or terms are zero, we have some simple differential equations and the extreme case is all the terms are zero; that is, we have trivial equations $0=0$; then its solution is zero. When we see the converse, we see that the zero world is a fruitful one and it means some vanishing world. Recall \index{Yamane phenomena}Yamane phenomena, the vanishing result is very simple zero, however, it is the result from some fruitful world. Sometimes, zero means void or nothing world, however, it will show some changes as in the Yamane phenomena.

\medskip

{\bf From $0$ to $0$; $0$ means all and all are $0$}

\medskip

As we see from our life figure, a story starts from the zero and ends to the zero. This will mean that $0$ means all and all are $0$, in a sense. The zero is a mother of all.

\medskip

その意味は深い。我々はゼロの意味をいろいろと捉え考え、ゼロとはさらに 基準を表すとか、不可能性を示すとか、無限遠点の反映であるとか、ゼロの2重性とかを述べている。ゼロと無限の関係をも述べている。ダ・ヴィンチの鋭い世界観に対する境地に驚嘆している。

テーマ:

The null set is conceptually similar to the role of the number “zero” as it is used in quantum field theory.
In quantum field theory, one can take the empty set, the vacuum, and generate all possible physical configurations of the Universe being modelled by acting on it with creation operators, and one can similarly change from one thing to another by applying mixtures of creation and anihillation operators to suitably filled or empty states. The anihillation operator applied to the vacuum, however, yields zero.

Zero in this case is the null set – it stands, quite literally, for no physical state in the Universe. The important point is that it is not possible to act on zero with a creation operator to create something; creation operators only act on the vacuum which is empty but not zero. Physicists are consequently fairly comfortable with the existence of operations that result in “nothing” and don’t even require that those operations be contradictions, only operationally non-invertible.

It is also far from unknown in mathematics. When considering the set of all real numbers as quantities and the operations of ordinary arithmetic, the “empty set” is algebraically the number zero (absence of any quantity, positive or negative). However, when one performs a division operation algebraically, one has to be careful to exclude division by zero from the set of permitted operations! The result of division by zero isn’t zero, it is “not a number” or “undefined” and is not in the Universe of real numbers.

Just as one can easily “prove” that 1 = 2 if one does algebra on this set of numbers as if one can divide by zero legitimately3.34, so in logic one gets into trouble if one assumes that the set of all things that are in no set including the empty set is a set within the algebra, if one tries to form the set of all sets that do not include themselves, if one asserts a Universal Set of Men exists containing a set of men wherein a male barber shaves all men that do not shave themselves3.35.

It is not – it is the null set, not the empty set, as there can be no male barbers in a non-empty set of men (containing at least one barber) that shave all men in that set that do not shave themselves at a deeper level than a mere empty list. It is not an empty set that could be filled by some algebraic operation performed on Real Male Barbers Presumed to Need Shaving in trial Universes of Unshaven Males as you can very easily see by considering any particular barber, perhaps one named “Socrates”, in any particular Universe of Men to see if any of the sets of that Universe fit this predicate criterion with Socrates as the barber. Take the empty set (no men at all). Well then there are no barbers, including Socrates, so this cannot be the set we are trying to specify as it clearly must contain at least one barber and we’ve agreed to call its relevant barber Socrates. (and if it contains more than one, the rest of them are out of work at the moment).

Suppose a trial set contains Socrates alone. In the classical rendition we ask, does he shave himself? If we answer “no”, then he is a member of this class of men who do not shave themselves and therefore must shave himself. Oops. Well, fine, he must shave himself. However, if he does shave himself, according to the rules he can only shave men who don’t shave themselves and so he doesn’t shave himself. Oops again. Paradox. When we try to apply the rule to a potential Socrates to generate the set, we get into trouble, as we cannot decide whether or not Socrates should shave himself.

Note that there is no problem at all in the existential set theory being proposed. In that set theory either Socrates must shave himself as All Men Must Be Shaven and he’s the only man around. Or perhaps he has a beard, and all men do not in fact need shaving. Either way the set with just Socrates does not contain a barber that shaves all men because Socrates either shaves himself or he doesn’t, so we shrug and continue searching for a set that satisfies our description pulled from an actual Universe of males including barbers. We immediately discover that adding more men doesn’t matter. As long as those men, barbers or not, either shave themselves or Socrates shaves them they are consistent with our set description (although in many possible sets we find that hey, other barbers exist and shave other men who do not shave themselves), but in no case can Socrates (as our proposed single barber that shaves all men that do not shave themselves) be such a barber because he either shaves himself (violating the rule) or he doesn’t (violating the rule). Instead of concluding that there is a paradox, we observe that the criterion simply doesn’t describe any subset of any possible Universal Set of Men with no barbers, including the empty set with no men at all, or any subset that contains at least Socrates for any possible permutation of shaving patterns including ones that leave at least some men unshaven altogether.

 I understand your note as if you are saying the limit is infinity but nothing is equal to infinity, but you concluded corretly infinity is undefined. Your example of getting the denominator smaller and smalser the result of the division is a very large number that approches infinity. This is the intuitive mathematical argument that plunged philosophy into mathematics. at that level abstraction mathematics, as well as phyisics become the realm of philosophi. The notion of infinity is more a philosopy question than it is mathamatical. The reason we cannot devide by zero is simply axiomatic as Plato pointed out. The underlying reason for the axiom is because sero is nothing and deviding something by nothing is undefined. That axiom agrees with the notion of limit infinity, i.e. undefined. There are more phiplosphy books and thoughts about infinity in philosophy books than than there are discussions on infinity in math books.

ゼロ除算の歴史:ゼロ除算はゼロで割ることを考えるであるが、アリストテレス以来問題とされ、ゼロの記録がインドで初めて628年になされているが、既にそのとき、正解1/0が期待されていたと言う。しかし、理論づけられず、その後1300年を超えて、不可能である、あるいは無限、無限大、無限遠点とされてきたものである。

An Early Reference to Division by Zero C. B. Boyer

OUR HUMANITY AND DIVISION BY ZERO

Lea esta bitácora en español
There is a mathematical concept that says that division by zero has no meaning, or is an undefined expression, because it is impossible to have a real number that could be multiplied by zero in order to obtain another number different from zero.
While this mathematical concept has been held as true for centuries, when it comes to the human level the present situation in global societies has, for a very long time, been contradicting it. It is true that we don’t all live in a mathematical world or with mathematical concepts in our heads all the time. However, we cannot deny that societies around the globe are trying to disprove this simple mathematical concept: that division by zero is an impossible equation to solve.
Yes! We are all being divided by zero tolerance, zero acceptance, zero love, zero compassion, zero willingness to learn more about the other and to find intelligent and fulfilling ways to adapt to new ideas, concepts, ways of doing things, people and cultures. We are allowing these ‘zero denominators’ to run our equations, our lives, our souls.
Each and every single day we get more divided and distanced from other people who are different from us. We let misinformation and biased concepts divide us, and we buy into these aberrant concepts in such a way, that we get swept into this division by zero without checking our consciences first.
I believe, however, that if we change the zeros in any of the “divisions by zero” that are running our lives, we will actually be able to solve the non-mathematical concept of this equation: the human concept.
>I believe
deep down that we all have a heart, a conscience, a brain to think with, and, above all, an immense desire to learn and evolve. And thanks to all these positive things that we do have within, I also believe that we can use them to learn how to solve our “division by zero” mathematical impossibility at the human level. I am convinced that the key is open communication and an open heart. Nothing more, nothing less.
Are we scared of, or do we feel baffled by the way another person from another culture or country looks in comparison to us? Are we bothered by how people from other cultures dress, eat, talk, walk, worship, think, etc.? Is this fear or bafflement so big that we much rather reject people and all the richness they bring within?
How about if instead of rejecting or retreating from that person—division of our humanity by zero tolerance or zero acceptance—we decided to give them and us a chance?
How about changing that zero tolerance into zero intolerance? Why not dare ask questions about the other person’s culture and way of life? Let us have the courage to let our guard down for a moment and open up enough for this person to ask us questions about our culture and way of life. How about if we learned to accept that while a person from another culture is living and breathing in our own culture, it is totally impossible for him/her to completely abandon his/her cultural values in order to become what we want her to become?
Let’s be totally honest with ourselves at least: Would any of us really renounce who we are and where we come from just to become what somebody else asks us to become?
If we are not willing to lose our identity, why should we ask somebody else to lose theirs?
I believe with all my heart that if we practiced positive feelings—zero intolerance, zero non-acceptance, zero indifference, zero cruelty—every day, the premise that states that division by zero is impossible would continue being true, not only in mathematics, but also at the human level. We would not be divided anymore; we would simply be building a better world for all of us.

テーマ:数学
Former algebraic approach was formally perfect, but it merely postulated existence of sets and morphisms [18] without showing methods to construct them. The primary concern of modern algebras is not how an operation can be performed, but whether it maps into or onto and the like abstract issues [19–23]. As important as this may be for proofs, the nature does not really care about all that. The PM’s concerns were not constructive, even though theoretically significant. We need thus an approach that is more relevant to operations performed in nature, which never complained about morphisms or the allegedly impossible division by zero, as far as I can tell. Abstract sets and morphisms should be de-emphasized as hardly operational. My decision to come up with a definite way to implement the feared division by zero was not really arbitrary, however. It has removed a hidden paradox from number theory and an obvious absurd from algebraic group theory. It was necessary step for full deployment of constructive, synthetic mathematics (SM) [2,3]. Problems hidden in PM implicitly affect all who use mathematics, even though we may not always be aware of their adverse impact on our thinking. Just take a look at the paradox that emerges from the usual prescription for multiplication of zeros that remained uncontested for some 5000 years 0  0 ¼ 0 ) 0  1=1 ¼ 0 ) 0  1 ¼ 0 1) 1ð? ¼ ?Þ1 ð0aÞ This ‘‘fact’’ was covered up by the infamous prohibition on division by zero [2]. How ingenious. If one is prohibited from dividing by zero one could not obtain this paradox. Yet the prohibition did not really make anything right. It silenced objections to irresponsible reasonings and prevented corrections to the PM’s flamboyant axiomatizations. The prohibition on treating infinity as invertible counterpart to zero did not do any good either. We use infinity in calculus for symbolic calculations of limits [24], for zero is the infinity’s twin [25], and also in projective geometry as well as in geometric mapping of complex numbers. Therein a sphere is cast onto the plane that is tangent to it and its free (opposite) pole in a point at infinity [26–28]. Yet infinity as an inverse to the natural zero removes the whole absurd (0a), for we obtain [2] 0 ¼ 1=1 ) 0  0 ¼ 1=12 > 0 0 ð0bÞ Stereographic projection of complex numbers tacitly contradicted the PM’s prescribed way to multiply zeros, yet it was never openly challenged. The old formula for multiplication of zeros (0a) is valid only as a practical approximation, but it is group-theoretically inadmissible in no-nonsense reasonings. The tiny distinction in formula (0b) makes profound theoretical difference for geometries and consequently also for physical applications. T

10,000 Year Clock
by Renny Pritikin
Conversation with Paolo Salvagione, lead engineer on the 10,000-year clock project, via e-mail in February 2010.

For an introduction to what we’re talking about here’s a short excerpt from a piece by Michael Chabon, published in 2006 in Details: ….Have you heard of this thing? It is going to be a kind of gigantic mechanical computer, slow, simple and ingenious, marking the hour, the day, the year, the century, the millennium, and the precession of the equinoxes, with a huge orrery to keep track of the immense ticking of the six naked-eye planets on their great orbital mainspring. The Clock of the Long Now will stand sixty feet tall, cost tens of millions of dollars, and when completed its designers and supporters plan to hide it in a cave in the Great Basin National Park in Nevada, a day’s hard walking from anywhere. Oh, and it’s going to run for ten thousand years. But even if the Clock of the Long Now fails to last ten thousand years, even if it breaks down after half or a quarter or a tenth that span, this mad contraption will already have long since fulfilled its purpose. Indeed the Clock may have accomplished its greatest task before it is ever finished, perhaps without ever being built at all. The point of the Clock of the Long Now is not to measure out the passage, into their unknown future, of the race of creatures that built it. The point of the Clock is to revive and restore the whole idea of the Future, to get us thinking about the Future again, to the degree if not in quite the way same way that we used to do, and to reintroduce the notion that we don’t just bequeath the future—though we do, whether we think about it or not. We also, in the very broadest sense of the first person plural pronoun, inherit it.

Renny Pritikin: When we were talking the other day I said that this sounds like a cross between Borges and the vast underground special effects from Forbidden Planet. I imagine you hear lots of comparisons like that…

Paolo Salvagione: (laughs) I can’t say I’ve heard that comparison. A childhood friend once referred to the project as a cross between Tinguely and Fabergé. When talking about the clock, with people, there’s that divide-by-zero moment (in the early days of computers to divide by zero was a sure way to crash the computer) and I can understand why. Where does one place, in one’s memory, such a thing, such a concept? After the pause, one could liken it to a reboot, the questions just start streaming out.

RP: OK so I think the word for that is nonplussed. Which the thesaurus matches with flummoxed, bewildered, at a loss. So the question is why even (I assume) fairly sophisticated people like your friends react like that. Is it the physical scale of the plan, or the notion of thinking 10,000 years into the future—more than the length of human history?

PS: I’d say it’s all three and more. I con
tinue to be amazed by the specificity of the questions asked. Anthropologists ask a completely different set of questions than say, a mechanical engineer or a hedge fund manager. Our disciplines tie us to our perspectives. More than once, a seemingly innocent question has made an impact on the design of the clock. It’s not that we didn’t know the answer, sometimes we did, it’s that we hadn’t thought about it from the perspective of the person asking the question. Back to your question. I think when sophisticated people, like you, thread this concept through their own personal narrative it tickles them. Keeping in mind some people hate to be tickled.

RP: Can you give an example of a question that redirected the plan? That’s really so interesting, that all you brainiacs slaving away on this project and some amateur blithely pinpoints a problem or inconsistency or insight that spins it off in a different direction. It’s like the butterfly effect.

PS: Recently a climatologist pointed out that our equation of time cam, (photo by Rolfe Horn) (a cam is a type of gear: link) a device that tracks the difference between solar noon and mundane noon as well as the precession of the equinoxes, did not account for the redistribution of water away from the earth’s poles. The equation-of-time cam is arguably one of the most aesthetically pleasing parts of the clock. It also happens to be one that is fairly easy to explain. It visually demonstrates two extremes. If you slice it, like a loaf of bread, into 10,000 slices each slice would represent a year. The outside edge of the slice, let’s call it the crust, represents any point in that year, 365 points, 365 days. You could, given the right amount of magnification, divide it into hours, minutes, even seconds. Stepping back and looking at the unsliced cam the bottom is the year 2000 and the top is the year 12000. The twist that you see is the precession of the equinoxes. Now here’s the fun part, there’s a slight taper to the twist, that’s the slowing of the earth on its axis. As the ice at the poles melts we have a redistribution of water, we’re all becoming part of the “slow earth” movement.

RP: Are you familiar with Charles Ray’s early work in which you saw a plate on a table, or an object on the wall, and they looked stable, but were actually spinning incredibly slowly, or incredibly fast, and you couldn’t tell in either case? Or, more to the point, Tim Hawkinson’s early works in which he had rows of clockwork gears that turned very very fast, and then down the line, slower and slower, until at the end it approached the slowness that you’re dealing with?

PS: The spinning pieces by Ray touches on something we’re trying to avoid. We want you to know just how fast or just how slow the various parts are moving. The beauty of the Ray piece is that you can’t tell, fast, slow, stationary, they all look the same. I’m not familiar with the Hawkinson clockwork piece. I’ve see the clock pieces where he hides the mechanism and uses unlikely objects as the hands, such as the brass clasp on the back of a manila envelope or the tab of a coke can.

RP: Spin Sink (1 Rev./100 Years) (1995), in contrast, is a 24-foot-long row of interlocking gears, the smallest of which is driven by a whirring toy motor that in turn drives each consecutively larger and more slowly turning gear up to the largest of all, which rotates approximately once every one hundred years.

PS: I don’t know how I missed it, it’s gorgeous. Linking the speed that we can barely see with one that we rarely have the patience to wait for.

RP: : So you say you’ve opted for the clock’s time scale to be transparent. How will the clock communicate how fast it’s going?

PS: By placing the clock in a mountain we have a reference to long time. The stratigraphy provides us with the slowest metric. The clock is a middle point between millennia and seconds. Looking back 10,000 years we find the beginnings of civilization. Looking at an earthenware vessel from that era we imagine its use, the contents, the craftsman. The images painted or inscribed on the outside provide some insight into the lives and the languages of the distant past. Often these interpretations are flawed, biased or over-reaching. What I’m most enchanted by is that we continue to construct possible pasts around these objects, that our curiosity is overwhelming. We line up to see the treasures of Tut, or the remains of frozen ancestors. With the clock we are asking you to create possible futures, long futures, and with them the narratives that made them happen.

【1週間の振り返り】

”円熟”と”罪悪感”

台風の事が気になってはいましたが、朝起きると曇り空でした。

正午前に一雨ありましたが、雨があがると晴れ間が広がっていましたね。

そんな中、今日は横浜にて買っていた眼鏡のレンズを買う事を決めたので少し早めに自宅を出ました。

買ったブランドは

「Less Than Human」

直訳すると「人間以下」という意味ですが、10年以上前から利用しているブランドの眼鏡で、独創的なデザインとその格好良さに惹かれて愛用しています。

他のブランドにはない遊び心があるとボクは感じてます。

さて、1軒目のお店でレンズ代を聞くと約¥14,000と言われましたが、スタッフの方が

「周りのお店でも聞いて見てください。他のお店の方が安いと思いますし。」

と近場のお店までも丁寧に教えて頂きまして2軒目へ向かいました。

2軒目で伺うと¥6,480とかなりの安さ!

過去の経験から\10,000くらいかと推測してましたが、かなり下回る価格でしたのでここで決定しちゃいました(笑)

ボク、超がつくど近眼でして…レンズがすごく分厚くなるんですね…。

できるだけレンズ厚を薄くしたいんですが、そうすると値段も上がっちゃうんです。

2軒目のお店だと薄いタイプでも値段は¥6,480と変わらないとの事だったので、それも決断を早めた理由でした。

1軒目のお店のスタッフさんの対応があったおかげです。

眼鏡のレンズをお願いして、そこから仕事に向かいました。

仕事の方は昨日に引き続いて何事もなく従事できました。

昨日辺りからですね、なんかよくわかりませんが調子が上向いているように感じます。

昨日といえば、占星術でいう水瓶座の満月であり皆既月食の日でした。

それと火星が地球に最接近してるんですね。

この辺りの影響かもしれませんし、一昨日参拝した”吉祥院天満宮”の加護かもしれないです。

理由はどうあれ、調子が上向いてるの悪い気分ではないですし、どうせならいっその事色々な物事を進めていきたいと思います。

7月30日(月)

”変容”と”支配”

今日から3連休。

その初日は前日の眼鏡を取りに行く事から活動を始めました。

といっても、動き出したのはお昼過ぎからですが(笑)

その前に!

「陰陽道」を学んでみようと思い至って、版元の企業と問い合わせをして連絡を取ってました。

前日に近所の書店に発注出来るか伺ったのですが、お盆休みもあるので、2週間程度の時間がかかるとの事だったので、版元の企業から取り寄せをお願いしました。

さて、その後に無事に眼鏡を受け取りまして、職場の方から提案のあった出来事についてほんの少しだけお話をさせてもらいました。

この件についてはどう転ぶかわかりませんが、その相手先にお伺いさせてもらう事で話は終了。

その時点でまだ15時頃だったので、どこかに行こうとスマホでgoogleマップを見てました。

少々距離はありましたが、鈴虫寺・西芳寺(苔寺)へと向かう事に。

毎度の如く思いつきで行ってるので、西芳寺が事前予約がいるとは到着するまで知らず(笑)

外から見える雰囲気を感じながら、鈴虫寺に向かいました。

拝観料を支払い、禅寺らしくお坊さんの説法を聴きながら鈴虫の音色に心を落ち着かせる事もできました。

説法を聴いている間はお茶と茶菓子を戴きました。

30分くらいでしょうか、説法を聴き終わり庭園を見て回って帰路に着きました。

帰ってからは引き篭もりでしたね。

7月31日(火)

”クリエイター”と”成功”

3連休の2日目。

本っ当に何もしませんでした。

やろうかなぁと思っていた事があったんですけどね…。

起きた時には動こうという気力は皆無でした。

ルーチンワーク(?)のタロットカードだけ引いて、それ以降は怠惰な時間を過ごしました。

そんな怠惰であっても、頭の中ではいろんな考えが駆け巡ったりしてました。

答えなんてのは出やしませんでしたけど。

方向性だけは見えてきたような気がしました。

8月1日(水)

”創造”と”源

3連休の最終日。

一日の始まりは先日注文した書籍の受け取りからでした。

その後、簡単な家事を済ませながら、毎月1日恒例の「ボクを占う」記事を作成してブログにアップ。

ここまで済ませた時刻は13時。

今日は遊んで過ごすと決めたので、独りカラオケに行ってました(笑)

”独りで遊ぶ”のは慣れたものですが、独りでカラオケに行くようになったのはここ4年程の事。

それまではゲームがメインでしたが、ちょっと変わってきてますね。

そうは言っても、カラオケに行くのは年に数度ですがね…。

周りの事も気にせず、大声で叫ぶ事は心をスッキリさせてくれます。

本当にストレス発散になりました!

今後も定期的に行きたい(月に1〜2回)と思いましたね。

カラオケを終えて帰宅。

帰宅後は越してきてからしていなかった革靴の手入れをしていました。

自転車に乗るようになって、革靴を履く機会がめっきり無くなってしまいおざなりになっていました。

京都市街地をふらっと歩く時には履くようにしていますが、それも週に1回程度なので、勿体ない感じです。

手入れを継続して、必要な時にちゃんと履けるようにしておきたいものです。

8月2日(木)

”政治家”と”親しさ”

連休が明けました。

ここ数日に感じた事、また「2018年8月を占う」で意識に現れた”手放し”のカードが気になったので、ボク自身への問い掛けを禅TAROTに投げ掛けました。

こちらの記事になりますね。

→『ブログURL貼り付け』

この結果を踏まえながら今後を過ごしたいと思います。

< p>さて、日常(主に仕事ですけど)の方では普段通り(?)の如く何事も無く過ぎ去っていきました。

目の前にある仕事のうち、ボクに出来る事を一個ずつ片付けている感じです。

昨日からですね、陰陽道に関する書籍を購入したので少しづつ読み進めています。

「気になるから読んでみよう」という感覚から始めているので、身になるかどうかは二の次にしています。

そういう意味では、ボク自身の心に従って動いているので”政治家”のカードのようにはならずにいるのかなぁ、と思います(笑)

8月3日(金)

”勇気”と”反逆”

業務時間の関係で、夜明け近くに就寝しているので起きる時間がちょっとまばらになりつつあります。

それでも業務開始時刻は一般で考えれば遅いので、少しでも早く起きれると時間に余裕があって、自分の時間を過ごす事ができています。

今日もそんな感じでした。

家を少し早めに出て、喫茶店にてゆっくり過ごしながら過去のタロットノートを見返してみたりと普段はしない事をやっていました。

それから仕事に入り、バタバタしながら作業し、終業手前にちょっとイライラしたり(笑)

こんな事はほぼいつも通りですが…。

終業後、とあるカラオケスナックへ。

知人の紹介もあって出向いてみました。

しばらく何をするでもなく空間を見渡したり、お客さんを見たりしてましたが感覚で

「ここに縁は無いな」

と思いました。

『何事も経験だ』と言われますが、その経験は良くも悪くもあると考えてます。

達観しているとボクがいうのも烏滸がましいと思いますが、何かを判断するには「観る」のも必要です。

そんな意味で、ある種の必要な経験だったと思います。

8月4日(土)

”ニュー・ヴィジョン”と”反逆”

前日の体験ですが、この日(8月4日)の夜明けまでしていました。

自宅に帰り着いたのは午前5時頃。

可能な限り起きていようと10時頃まではタロットカードを引いたり、音楽を聴いたりしてましたが。

案の定、眠くなりますよね(笑)

それからは終日、睡眠を取りました。

何度か起きたのですけど、「眠い…、眠り足りん」という事でまた寝て、といった時間を過ごしてました。

場の空気が合っていなかったし、それを持ち帰っている故、眠りながら清めてる感じだったんでしょうね。

まだ時を急ぐ必要は無いと改めて感じました。

今出来る事を継続して、その時に備える方が良いと思うに至った1日でした。

先週の振り返りは以上になります。

さて、今週はどんな1週間になるのでしょうか?!

最後まで読んでいただいてありがとうございます。
