I never went to school and left with nothing but playing outside and learning from taking things apart and playing with many mates. Yet I have my own successfully business and can buy what I wish.
@Mike Kane I think a lot has to do with the fact that we live in kind of a sociopathic/narcissistic society. Values are largely drawn from opinion, family, culture and unfortunately quite often : the deranged view of people suffering tendencies toward or a severe diagnosible disorder. This causing a whole lot of cognitive dissonance and we are left with frustration, unhappiness, depression, all sorts of auto immune issues, a severely toxic industry, wars, exploitation etc. And the kicker to the story : most of these sick individuals don't care about all of that they just keep looking at the bright side cuz they don't have the ability to care about the downsides. Especially the high functioning disordered people. I don't want to stigmatize people suffering such disorder. A lot of them mean well but because of the disorder they are suffering they are harmful and can not relate in healthy ways to others or environment... this is a BIG problem. And we haven't even begun to speak of : rationalizing, reactional thinking/behaving. I appreciate your comment, it's almost a relief to read.
Reality TV and social media have done a great job of dumbing down, they even managed to put a failed reality TV personality in the White House. Throw out the TV and limit social media to reconnect with ourselves

The greatest factor influencing realization of human potential is PARENTING which must confer a feeling of being LOVED - from birth. The greatest risk to brains today is corporate pollution of the environment.
I appreciate the sentiment, but that's a fallacy. Incredible lessons are learned by those who suffer, especially early on, and often much sooner and more frequently. Things like family doesn't mean blood; a parent that tortures their child is not family, but a beloved friend can be. You aren't who you think you are and neither is anyone else. The systems in place are illusions forged from pure bullshit. And on and on and on. Suffering forces us to learn and grow or crumble. Many do collapse under the weight of trauma and errors of self-image. But many, many artists are spawned from suffering. Scientists are often tormented early on by their peers. And love, while laudable, is only part of the equation. Eschewing negative experiences prevents catalysis. Parents are also not always required as guides, either. Loving guides can come in many forms, even as animals! Feral children are the obvious example of this kind of relationship, but many people find family for the first time in their pets. Friends often take up the role for those who have no parents of their own, or none considered to be valid. And I agree that corporate pollution is devastating. Especially in that it comes in many non-physical forms which infect our cultures and therefore the individuals who live within. Our sensibilities and sense of power have been degraded to a nightmarish degree and it will take incredible suffering to force people to fight back for themselves :(
He did 'the good work' literally on his death bed; his wife, Laura, injected him, at his bequest, with LSD. An amazing mind, one of the 20th centuries greatest....
22:35 the fact that these words hold true now, more than ever with the rapid and terrifying development of AI, proves that Huxley was not only a philosopher, he was a modern prophet.
In the book Scatterbrain , we learn that boredom awakens the muse, distractions spark creativity, and misjudging time creates valuable memories, among other benefits of our faulty minds. Throughout, award-winning neuroscientist Henning Beck’s hilarious asides and brain-boosting advice make for delightful reading of the most cutting-edge neuroscience our brains will (maybe never) remember. Huxley’s opinionated lecture, from the art side of humanities, was thought-provoking 50 years ago!
the average human is not too bright. This man was partially blind I hear, a psychedelic hindu believer, he took lsd as he lay dying. very insightful mind. astonishingly intuitive
He actually wore glasses early on and trained his eyes and mind to not need them later on, and he had very thick glasses! Proof of an Ascended God in the pudding!
OMG I was jsut looking for an auid version of Huxley's Perinnial philoisophy today and then got the notice from Esalen today for the new Huxley building. synchronicity
Parents aren't teaching children the truth today, there just teaching them what job to get based on how they can earn in that job rather than letting them know the system itself is corruption and needs changing so be a writer and expose the truth you will be making a great sacrifice for mankind, sadly this isn't taught
Without parental Guidance...true or false....Human beings cannot wake up Skeptical brain cells to discover the truth.......Humanity Brainwashed by acceptance of others descriptions ......so incapable of seeing anything profoundly new........every second in life, is NEW !!!.....The past has no meaning
I struggle with the boundaries of my intellect, I would like to expand them, this talk made me think about the tie chi classes I use to take, I felt non verbal information in the forms.
he was a mescaline addict, no wonder! which means he was a Thief and not a Boss. He wanted to penetrate other planes in an illegal way as everybody, who take substances, do.
he did not seem to understand that the only legal way to get enlightened was to cleanse one's soul from passions and to attain humility before God, and that takes guts! Of course, why bother if you can take a pill...yet this way is very trecherous, because without being pure and knowing the difference between good and evil you can become victim of satanic spirits. that will be the price for illegal method of getting into the spiritual world.
No offense, but you're not very well educated on the subject. For starters mescaline is not an addictive chemical in any way. And by taking these psychedelic, plant generated chemicals he wasn't stealing anything. So...he wasn't a thief. He was a brilliant writer and his experiences gave way to even more fascinating perspectives. Having experienced Satori, I'm going to let you in on a secret. You are Satan. As much as you are God. What you fear has nothing to do with the thing itself. It is your fear of self destruction or ego-loss which leads you to demonize the contrary element of nature. You'd call it evil, but there's no malice in entropy or chaos. It's just the other side of the coin. Neither face is the whole of it, but they are not separate at all. Death isn't a horrible thing to fear; life is the source of suffering. Death is therefore the end of reason to fear. The only thing treacherous about utilizing a chemical to experience reality shorn of illusion is the myopic perspective that people like you invariably bring to the dialogue.
Mirk Watkins go on believing in the unity of the opposites. see how far it will bring you unscathed. embrace the god and satan within you, refuse the notion of sin, relativize good and evil, be ambivalent, give up all the discernment, be confident regardless of the limited human mind that the secrets allegedly revealed to you in the satori are absolute truth and not just a tricky way to lead you astray....for you are the great intellectual and wisman! of course, why the heck should one troble oneself with some stupid and tiresome inner work as trying to become at least one step better by the end of one's lifetime, when you can once and for all accept the good and evil within?....that is just your choice.
It would be so wonderful if everyone was born into wealth, could attend Eton and Oxford. Then realise their full potentialities. Instead of dying alone, in a filthy slum.

Very nice comment and simply accurate. Sums up what happening on this planet ,this world,. We are imagining this. The ego or more specifically the admission that we have a ego and that which states this is also false and we slip into the Tao.
Description of reality is not a reality. Conceptual XIX century based belief in science is, if I'm not mistaken, something similar although slightly remastered, belief in infallible religion of Medieval times :) As Alan Watt used to say -we are gooey and prickly at the same time. All is relative :)
Most philosopher and writers in Huxley’s time and today, know very little about How People Learn, 2nd edition, especially early childhood development The Scientist In The Crib; little or nothing about genetics, therefore very little about nature and nurture; least of all about the functioning of the human brain; but they love to articulate their opinion. Parents can conceive children, even when they are inebriated or stoned, but very few know much about A T G C being transferred; next to nothing about embryonic development, therefore next to nothing about early childhood development; even though they think they are experts in child rearing. Previously loving parents, when adolescence and emerging adulthood arrives, the same parents usually lose control and resort to the cliche - kids will be kids. We live in a modern era, with advanced technology, because we’ve been able to record the findings of several select individuals or groups of individuals that have made real world discoveries and contributions! Who were Watson and Crick? Who was James Clerk Maxwell? These contributors have been able to make beneficial use of the creativity and imagination of their brains! We all have creativity and imagination, except that a lot of the creativity and imagination spewing forth has no purpose beyond entertainment value; and a lot more of so called creativity is downright human fabricated nonsense that has slowed cultural progress to the extent of being destructive to humanity.
This may seem a strange comparison, but Huxley's approach and conclusions seem entirely consistent with those of Eckhart Tolle. Maybe it's not strange. I guess there's only one truth, after all.

Boy, Huxley wasnt a drugadict, not even a drug supporter. In fact he was against the way people was using drugs. He also was against such psychodelism vogue , because of the degradation drugs make on human being.
On his deathbed, his last few hours of life, he confirmed to his wife that he wanted to be injected with lsd. His wife injected two doses a couple hours apart. He first used mescaline in 1952, I believe.
The word is "potential", not "potentialities". Just as the words "operationalize" is nonsense, and "confliction" (try conflict?), "originations" (try origins); likewise "disagreeability", "alertified", "relevancy", "desperational", "performativity", "numerosity", "normalcy" are all nonsense and surplus to necessity.
Not that I disagree with Huxley over all, but neuroscience has shown for a while that no human uses only 10% of their brain unless they are in a coma and perhaps even then they would soon be dead if they haven't died at prior losses of overall brain functioning. What people mean by use their brain is thinking, but what they really mean rational thought. Since, you are always thinking even if you're not aware of it. In fact, almost all your thinking is unconscious, but your mind is always working to maintain your existence whether you are aware of it or not.
This man DID predict 'Soma' in the 20's ,I don't think adderall is the subject .. That substance is a dangerous drug ,just legal meth . He was proposer of the use of LSD and Mescaline .. One can n=be confused at times listening to talk . READ THE BOOKS !!

Families are too isolated. Children learn about us and them, not about nature and love. "Our child is the most important in this world" and the child grows up, forced to play phycological games in order to to win what is thought to be love, which really is just relationships built on the ideas about us and them. Once us is created, the goal is achieved. It is a system of winners and losers, influenced by our greed for money, wealth and symbols whereabout our thoughts circulates. Love has no adjectives, it is not about us or they. It is what is left after every piece of history is taken as an irrelevant information, here and now.
Huxley didn't know about the pre Younger Dryas megalithic civilisations because even to this day academia is trying it's best cover up/ignore our real history. So that child of 20,000years ago with an IQ of 170 would have been a scientist/priest, or architect of some of the magnificent building projects they produced. So if one of the best educated people in the Western World was ignorant of our past, is it ant wonder most of you are.
Read some of Darwin’s work.. Nature shows a record of winners and losers, the strong survive and their traits are kept alive while the weak die and disappear from the gene pool.
What is Aldous really implying in terms of individuals and humanity...individualism is imperative now, critical to our humanity. He proposes a contrived, aribitrary, hierarchical society. Frightening! What has become of the power to critically evaluate? He so aptly said in 1958, 'the price of freedom is eternal vigilance'. Deeper contemplation...please
Amphibia, the Land of Amphibious Glands 2 cover Our💦Watery👀Bands, knowledge of whit not 🤭2 say, covered words, converted in contrivances' sands, say, "I Am Fib-i-Us", a Word👄Commands!
There are a lot of problems with the approach he is promoting. First, a great empirical work is required to determine what child is part of which grouping. Are there combinations of these? 3 types of humans I severely limited. Enforcing a type of education on a child is ridiculous. What about potential of balancing some of these tendencies? Astrology has all these systems beat at the start. The intricate details of the individual are revealed in the precise natal chart. Huxley is promoting a statistical approach to the soul. Something Jung highly criticized.
I love Aldous' writings and philosophies, but it seems to me, that in this audio clip, he tends to talk in circles and babble about natha.. I'm a little disappointed.
I think the percentage is better described like this: The idiot uses 100% of their brain, you use 100% of your brain, and Einstein used 100% of his brain. The idiot utilizes about 5%, You utilize around 10%, and Einstein 20%. The 100% is an estimate of the potential of the "mind".
From a distance those who waved their arms looked mad until when near you hear the music. Was a court jester a fool or a manipulator through humour of the King. Is a fool all about the viewing perspective.
Everyone uses far more, the different areas of the brain complement each other. That is why a more balanced education system will get better results, if that is what you are trying to manufacture.

I take garlic supplement w/ I. Generics HCQw/ zinc & Fluvoxamine ( Columbine med) work. Here is old tv: ruclips.net/video/051S6qeV1Tw/видео.html
Second part is my neck of the woods growing up w/MKULTRA & DARPA all around. Check out Dr. Brian Tyson saving over 6,000 lives in Imperial Valley CA.18 movement & breathing on TCM Healing Center.
Families are too isolated. Children learn about us and them, not about nature and love. "Our child is the most important in this world" and the child grows up, forced to play phycological games in order to to win what is thought to be love, which really is just relationships built on the ideas about us and them. Once us is created, the goal is achieved. It is a system of winners and losers, influenced by our greed for money, wealth and symbols whereabout our thoughts circulates. Love has no adjectives, it is not about us or they. It is what is left after every piece of history is taken as an irrelevant information, here and now.
wow, what are you smoking?
Man, why did you go and had too mess it all up?? You came straight out the gate with Unity. Then the rest was like wtf???

Huxley didn't know about the pre Younger Dryas megalithic civilisations because even to this day academia is trying it's best cover up/ignore our real history. So that child of 20,000years ago with an IQ of 170 would have been a scientist/priest, or architect of some of the magnificent building projects they produced. So if one of the best educated people in the Western World was ignorant of our past, is it ant wonder most of you are.
20 minutes in. I ask, do fool proof systems spawn fools.
smart pill
What is so special about our species ( apart from the fact that we will probably destroy the rare biosphere that created us ) .
Jesus loves u
I prefer specie to species

eugenics was practiced in African Americans during slavery. physical attributes for labor and sexual pleasure was heavily applied.
Read some of Darwin’s work..
Nature shows a record of winners and losers, the strong survive and their traits are kept alive while the weak die and disappear from the gene pool.
Exponential growth since cave men. Gosh, when do we peak 🤔
What is Aldous really implying in terms of individuals and humanity...individualism is imperative now, critical to our humanity. He proposes a contrived, aribitrary, hierarchical society. Frightening! What has become of the power to critically evaluate? He so aptly said in 1958, 'the price of freedom is eternal vigilance'. Deeper contemplation...please
Agree. Critical evaluation and individualism needed.
The "like" button is an impotent nub.
hahahahahahahaha

There are a lot of problems with the approach he is promoting. First, a great empirical work is required to determine what child is part of which grouping. Are there combinations of these? 3 types of humans I severely limited. Enforcing a type of education on a child is ridiculous. What about potential of balancing some of these tendencies? Astrology has all these systems beat at the start. The intricate details of the individual are revealed in the precise natal chart. Huxley is promoting a statistical approach to the soul. Something Jung highly criticized.
I love Aldous' writings and philosophies, but it seems to me, that in this audio clip, he tends to talk in circles and babble about natha.. I'm a little disappointed.
I think the percentage is better described like this: The idiot uses 100% of their brain, you use 100% of your brain, and Einstein used 100% of his brain. The idiot utilizes about 5%, You utilize around 10%, and Einstein 20%. The 100% is an estimate of the potential of the "mind".
From a distance those who waved their arms looked mad until when near you hear the music. Was a court jester a fool or a manipulator through humour of the King. Is a fool all about the viewing perspective.
Everyone uses far more, the different areas of the brain complement each other. That is why a more balanced education system will get better results, if that is what you are trying to manufacture.
this is one of the grandfathers of mkultra
I think some of his info was used by there think tanks
evidence? how can this claim be verified
Man, man, man....I'm out of here @3mins.
Yeah, the most important species on the earth which can simply flourish without. :D
