Glucose Level and the Will-Power
There are some internet information and the blog talking about the tendency of human behaviour,
in relation to the blood sugar level.
A blog talking about the influence of sugar (glucose) level to one’s will power quoting an article
in the New York Times which says depleted sugar level lead to the person indecisive. (postpone the decision)
This full 7 pages article is in deed the test of one’s will power to read through 😀
It’s talking about this research and other research and so on, and the observation connecting glucose
level to decision-making appeared in 5th page. ( Better jump to the page, if you are busy)
—
Somewhat interesting observation though, this research having a fatal flaw. Its observation is
based on a statistic of the decision-making of a Parole Board —– which application was passed in the daily
schedule in relation to the time of the day. (Possibility of a Parole given to criminals are much higher
soon after the lunch break, but later afternoon seemed to be very few) — this statistic came from official
document, but conclusion wasn’t based on the blood sample taken from the members of the Parole Board.
Hence speculating its tendency that it was contributed by the glucose level was nothing but a guess work
speculation. —– There could be hundreds more psychological factors.
—
The activity of the brain can be seen as a graphic image of PET (Positron Emission Tomography)
scanner. PET image shows how the energy consumption (Oxidation of the glucose) is taking place.
—– If depletion of the glucose is there = no emission = no bright image = shadow.
Even a person under observation, who was taking heavy brain taxing work, PET image never shows a shadow
= brain is keep working.
The sugar level in the blood is as crucial as the oxygen level, hence the blood circulation and the controlling
mechanism of the sugar level has been evolved in the past million years of evolution.
I don’t think the human kind who didn’t have a chocolate handy in their daily life suffered with
poor decision-making due to the glucose depletion. (Otherwise we have been extinct long ago)
—
And the another article I found was a kind of statistic made by a marriage adviser (?) Mary. J. Hungerford
of California (though, I couldn’t find the original article) which said that 3/4 of the divorced couple were
having sweet tooth and she speculates it must be caused by the higher level of the
Adrenalin which was associated with the higher level of glucose in the blood.
Higher level of Adrenalin makes the person aggressive hence argumentative —– which lead to the
break down of the relation and end up in divorce. (Really ! ? )
—
—– Very funny contradicting fact is [ What about Diabetic ] it was caused by higher level of
the glucose in the blood. Does it creates an aggressive man of will ? Quite opposite isn’t it ?
—
PS : After I’ve put this post, I Googled [Glucose level, Will-power] and realized this idea was not novel,
—– but rather popular idea. Then I gave a thought [what I was eating in the Eihei-ji temple ] —–
—– A bowl of rice porridge (of cause not with milk, just boiled in a lots of water) and pickled vegetable for
—– break fast. In the evening, a bowl of rice, a dish of such as boiled vegetables, tofu etc, and miso-soupe.
—– Strangely I have no memory of lunch —– may be it wasn’t there.
—– I think, to anybody’s eyes and a mouth, it was not a kind of food to energize the Man’s Will-Power 😀
—– Despite such poor food, the Monks even ordinary visitors stay there to spend the time of nothing !
—– There was no restriction to leave, if anyone wish. So that, to stay there may need to have a will-power.
—
—– Think about the heroic story of the sheer Will-Power, like Shackleton’s Polar Expedition etc.
—– Did he has a luxury of daily portion of chocolate to keep his will ? I don’t think so. 😀
—– I don’t think the will-power of what people talking about here and the explorer’s or mountain climber’s
—– will-power is the same kind.— Neither any Zen Master’s will.
—– Buddhist has completely different psyche —– there was no will at all, hence those
—– Masters got enlightenment ! ( Buddhist doesn’t intentionally pursuit the goal by will
—– but to set the goal as the default = if nothing else is there, what else can we wish for ? )
—– When (to his eyes) no chocolate is there, why want to eat chocolate —> once this kind
—–of mind became the norm, do something by the will doesn’t need a chocolate 😀
—– If he wants to do [A], Just Do [A] —– anyhow nothing else is in his scope.
—– To chose [A] out of 26 and do it needs to think and the will. But if nothing else there,
—– it is only a thing he can do. —– This is the ZEN.

Why TALK, Why Blog ?
It is the most fundamental contradiction in Zen Blog. Which I’m well aware.
Zen is after all, [in practice] how to live. Not a system of thinking or idea. Nor dubious magic at all.
Therefore, if any notion or thinking of even an idea of spirituality or any religious notion is there, it is
not the Zen but mere pretence.
In Zen, because of no preconceived idea or thinking is there (or no longer there) it is described as Mushin
and having the eyes to see the subjects without preconception, it is fully opened clear eyes by which
the one can see the object as it is, hence, there couldn’t be any barrier between
seeing and be seen = it is the Oneness / Ichijo.
Seeing and be seen are no longer there as the separate entity, hence no Self could exist
—– all those are not a logical conclusion or answer, but just a state of the brain.
( Brain is not only for thinking 🙂 )
non
State of the brain ( In fact, the balance of hormone, Dopamine and Serotonin etc) will be
reflected to one’s feeling and the actual action, so does to the results ( hence to the one’s Karma)
not as a revealing words. ( Because, Zen is not a word game but real dairy life )
non
This is the Buddhism of which Buddha taught.
To learn this, the followers literally followed
Buddha and copied what he does, down to the minute details, since
Buddha himself was the teachings itself. And as
Buddha did practice his own dairy life according to the Dharma,
and himself was a part of the Dharma too, his actions or practices were the Dharma.
( So that the recordings of those teachings were also called as Dharma, and those practices has been reflected
into the Zen Buddhism, such as in the Soto Zen, there is no verbal communication but just follow the practice,
and through practice, the learning could be achieved and even sudden realization could be occurred,
which was called Direct Transmission )
non
—– this is the reason why I feel deeply paradoxical to talk about Zen, let alone blogging.
In the so-called Buddha’s biography, there was the story of
Buddha’s hesitation to teach what he found in his Enlightenment, which was needed a persuasion of
the Brahman to start.
(So far I couldn’t find the origin of this story in the Scripture —– the author of the biography must have
really deep understanding of the Buddhism and had the insight )
Buddhism having inherent trouble refusing to be explained by the words.
Understanding or so-called enlightenment may just come while practising.
So that, I can definitely say, Just Do it.

Is MUSHIN same as Thoughtless ?
Well, it is not about a Justice / Punishment from the heaven but about the mind-set.
Non
These days our topics were often related to the Riot, and there was an interesting question.
“Wasn’t the mind-set of [senseless] [thoughtless] behaviour, same to the Zen
Buddhist’s [Mushin]. —– What makes the difference between them ? ? ? “
—– in fact, someone who put a comment to the previous post had the same thinking.
And this question has so many implication and the facets.
—– Once, Pablo Picasso said “ Keep drawing like a child is the hardest things in the Art”
—– Then, “what is the difference between [Innocence] or [Ignorance] to the [Mushin] ? “
May be the easiest answer to this question is, just whack the person shouting “Idiot” —– really ?
non
There was an interesting story among the legend of the Sword Masters.
In the Samurai era, top sword-man was roving around the country seeking the contest-match
against each other, in order to achieve the record / reputation. ( And the winner was invited to
give a lesson to the local Lord receiving good reward)
Then, someone got an idea of plank, dressed up an ignorant peasant as a respectable
samurai, claiming that this is the supreme sword-master, and challenging top local
sword-master.
On the match, the peasant was just standing facing real master just having his sword down.
As the peasant had a slightest idea of what the sword-mastery is, he was just standing still.
The challenged was the master who knows everything —– but as the opponent seemed to
standing utterly defenceless —– almost like an idiot (in fact he was an idiot) it made the master
utterly confused. —– no such things could happen here. Otherwise it must be a ploy to make
the master wrong-foot = this man must be a real sword-master and able to kill him instant.
—– it was what the master felt. (To his eyes, the peasant’s utter ignorant appearance, not even
recognize him was seen as the ultimate Mushin only possessed by a supream sword-master 😀 )
Then, the master throw his sword away, and kneel down for begging his life.
—————
The pair prankster succeeded all the contest-match in the same way.
But, after a while, the peasant started to wonder why those famous masters just give up and
kneel down to him. And interested in to use the sword, as he mistook that he is in deed a
strong sword-master and able to kill the opponent.
So that, on the next match, peasant break a stillness and showed a slight sign of intention.
Then, the challenged sword-master instantly reacted to this sign, sway the body to other
direction and cut the peasant into two pieces. (The End 😀 )
non
It is true, even a Zen Master has used a metaphor of the mind of small child
to describe the Mushin and a state of mind of Jizai.
And in the Buddhist’s arguments about the universality / inclusiveness of the Mahayana stance,
this matter —– What is the distinction between [Innocence, Ignorance, Senseless,
Thoughtless] to the [Mushin] is some time mixed-up.
As a matter of fact, when it is convenient, this kind of metaphor has been often used though,
[The Mushin] is a very specific, peculiar state of the mind, nothing similar to any of
those mind. Not just the matter of inclusiveness of the Mahayana, but also the confusion of the
[ What is the Buddhist’s mind] ( before this, What is the Buddhist ? —– there are all sorts of the
Buddhist exists —– Such as to enjoy the life having the eyes to appreciate peaceful nature which
gave a feeling of the liberated mind = could be perfectly the life and the mind of a Buddhist)
—– it has been left out of strict argument.
Non
But in strict term, the Mushin is the state of the mind, which only occurs when our
brain ceased to operate to categorising and reconfiguring the notion. —– yet
able to react to incoming stimulant.
—– In practice, this state of mind can be reached only through the long long repeated
practice which wear out those active, intentional activities of the brain
= thinking process.
And very similar to the treatment of an allergy, those practice also wear out the basic
desire and the emotional reaction = So that, the state of the Mind [ Mind of No-Mind]
= [Mushin] is only strict to [Purely the state of No-Thinking and No-Emotion]
= Dispassionate.
(but not akin to senseless or thoughtless —– because in those cases, senseless / thoughtless
mind is, in fact occupied by another sorts of mind = such as an anger, greed or
overwhelming fanaticism = ideology or madness)
non
=== this definition must have cleared the confusion.
=== the mind of childish, senseless, thoughtless Rioters were definitely, utterly
no way near to the Buddhist’s Mushin.
[ If it was done in Mushin, it got to bring the GOOD outcome. This is what the
Karma mean. And if it brought bad outcome — because, it has done not in Mushin]
—– You may say this is out of rational logic and say ” Why”, but this is what I found and true.
And this must be the reason why the Buddhism is existing. 🙂

Aaaaaa~~~~~ !
It’s just a simple experiment. Try, say Aaaaaaa~~~~~ !
Starting low voice. Aaaaaaa~~~~~~ !
And somewhere in the middle. Aaaaaaa~~~~~~ !
Then in highest pitch. Aaaaaaa~~~~~~ !
Non
It’s a same Aaaa though, in its low tone it’s sound like you are shouting fed-up or expressing disgust.
In the middle, it is somewhat responding to others or communicating that you agree or you got it.
But when it sound in very high tone, it became your cry, not necessary to others, but
to yourself.
When it sound very low-frequency you must be noticed, your bottom of lung, stomach resonates.
And in high tone, it resonates to your base of the skull where your Limbic system of the
brain is situated, and the Hypo-campus, Old cortex immediately above.
Non
Whether, because when we cry we cry in hi-pitch tone (tension in the body squeeze even the throat and
the voice box, then the voice become hi-tone —-> then we were conditioned to the situation,
or more inherent program in the primitive brain system ? (genetically programmed) —-> we cry hi-tone,
—– we may not know which came first.
Still, when those primitive part of the brain resonates, we feel the chill in our spine too. —-> we feel Awe.
(I’ve wrote about this, in a post [Spiritual Sound] too)
non
When we saw a danger, we feel Fear. Feel the same but not know why or which is the cause, we feel Awe.
Hence the sound which resonates the old part of brain / limbic system, Hypo-campus
where the emotion were created, —– yet don’t know where or why it’s coming, we feel Awe.
And this induced Awe is the basis of our spirituality.
With highly trained ( highly conditioned with many on-the-spot experiences / raw experience exposes
one’s perception, hence directly connected to the emotion.
Study deals with intelligence but Conditioning involves the emotion / emotion mean, it’s induces
physiological chemical effect / hormone, brain transmitter etc ) highly studied brain can associate
intellectual information to the experience which carry emotion —-> hence pure intellectual notion can
also be associated with Awe / Spirituality.
non
It’s a bad tendency, when people talk about spirituality, they pretend to be higher than others and noble
though, everybody having the spirituality —– the resonance to receive unknown message.
To interpret it to a known category or what so ever kind is related to what the person already know.
Non
So, this is the most unlikely sample of the spiritual sound 😀
I’ve listened a live performance of this, once at the Saint Martin in the Field church and at many
churches in Germany, still this one is [impressive enough for me to shed a tear] .
Unlike acoustic sound, synthesized sound having exactly the same frequency in each tone, often even
the same wave form, hence it creates unnatural resonance, even worse, resonating with
the speaker-system in a lap-top —– some time it’s irritating to the ears. ( Don’t ask too much)
A German guy commented to this “as a German, we never attempt to do, though I like this”
it’s showed how great the original music of the Bach.
( Its abstractic sound structure can withstand any instrument or the style of play.)
( In comparison, a sound like in the Beethoven’s Pastoral, birds songs has to be played by a Piccolo
—— Romantic School Music are sound effect in a Cartoon comics, hence likely sound is the matter.)
—– while walking on the street, once I was stricken by a distant sound of this music.
Despite there was a lot of street noise or rather distorted faint sound —— quality or settings were not
the matter at all —— what there beyond the sound, was enough for me to feel a chill on my back.
The firm faith, Awe to unknown is what Spirituality mean.

ANGER management
I talked about those matter in relation to Emotion or Subconscious in many of my old posts.
As I wrote there, Emotion is more to do with the chemical / Hormone effects in our body than
the matter of what we are thinking.
Although there is a funny circle of Chicken and Egg of one’s Mind and the Chemical.
—– which comes first ?
—
When we are contented, that feeling of being satisfied is created by the Hormone called Serotonin
and the Dopamine. —– And the anger was caused by the Noradrenalin.
With the presence of Serotonin the effects of Noradrenalin is suppressed.
Everybody knows, when we are hungry, we tend to get angry. —– we are pretty simple animal 😀
Simply because, when we are hungry there is no Serotonin in our brain hence easily get angry.
Therefore, not get angry, we need to be contented, hence having Serotonin in the brain.
—– Being contented —– here comes your Mind-set.
Non
Contentedness is a relative matter and which is dependent to your assessment —– assessment between
your expectation and the result or what you got on front of your eyes.
Literally, the content is in a jar. How content fills the jar is depends on the size of the jar.
The same content which fulfil a small jar may look almost empty in the bottom of huge jar.
We just feel how it is full by a glance —– and feel either contented or disappointed.
So, have a small size of the jar —– you always feel full = CONTENTED.
Therefore, plenty flow of Serotonin.
With a lots of Serotonin, the anger hormone Noradrenalin is suppressed = PEACE of MIND.
non
To have a small jar is, what we called Humble life. And not too greedy nor arrogant.
Settle with small jar seems to be not ambitious and associated with defeatism —– you are wrong.
It is an easy popular deception created by the commercialism. With its commercialism you are
mislead and infected by the virus of hunger.
Be positive to be Humble —– ( It’s better than to be in Hunger and Angry dairy life. 🙂 )
What you need is proportional to your size. —– your size is what you were born to be.
You may have huge jar in one aspect of your life, but small one in the other aspect.
No one can have everything. And not expect to others, since the other may not have it too.
This is What you need to become aware WHO YOU ARE.
And to know this, you need to have clear eyes to see it, listen it, feel it.
Here comes Zen Buddhism to have clear self-awareness.
Non
It’s a long circle of the Chicken and Egg 😀
You must be convinced why the Buddhism exist to have Peaceful Life.
( Effect of chemicals in our body is a part of the Dharma and the Buddhism.
Buddhism is not dubious mumbo-jumbo, but has clear explanation in science )

Baby Baby
There was a BBQ in my friend’s place, and I checked the palm lines of my friends
Lukas and Lucy’s baby Lia’s. —– Hm —– hm hm !
Anyhow, a baby is —– fundamentally cute.
Why CUTE ?
A notion of beauty came from the eyes of grown-up’s. Therefore, it
needs the exact shape and the proportion etc etc.
A baby got everything out of proportion. Big eyes big round cheeks short legs
etc etc. Hence they are not beautiful but cute or pretty.
non
Beautiful woman is the eyes to appreciate —– though not necessary nice to talk with. Especially too perfect
beauties often repel us. Or at least me. ( Anyhow I know I don’t match them. Ha ha ha 😀 )
The charm point, which attract us is somewhere a little bit out of perfection. Out of proportion.
So, the charming point lies between perfection and a monster. —– So that, a bit out of standard is a charm,
but if it’s gone too far makes a monster. How much [a bit] is depend on the individual taste. Some likes more
and some got taste of even a monster. In most of case, where the people feel charming and cute, such
as big eyes etc are in fact the typical feature of the baby.
Cute disarm and open the mind of grown-ups and make them feel joy. So, everybody loves it.
Simply because the babies are absolutely harmless (except few historical accidents 🙂 ) and the living sample of
the glory of the life ( save the pain and the hardship of the parents found in reality 🙂 )
If anybody really encounter a creature 6 feet tall looks like a baby in the picture, definitely frighten them
though, here, she is just a small baby, only makes you smile.
Isn’t she CUTE ?

DaVinci DELUSION
No one deny the exceptional drawing skill of Leonardo DaVinci, but how about his famous
ingenuity in the inventions, and the scientific thinking and the observation ?
Most of the people believe the reputation of him as a genius —– really ? ? ?
As a matter of fact, what people believe is mere Hear-say or Myth.
At least, anybody can see his superb drawings and the paintings. Though, how many people ever
put close eyes to his invention or anatomical drawings, which purported to be medically,
scientifically true representation of the human anatomy.
non
Utterly against the popular belief, my view of Leonardo DaVinchi is, he was just a trickster with
big mouth. Big mouth but his presentation with realistic superb drawing fooled the people.
Exactly same as a sham Doctor selling beauty portion with beautiful picture on the bottle.
But the people who doesn’t know the science or engineering was just fooled by his big mouth
—– any how they couldn’t understand the significance or implication of the drawings.
non
If you have the basic understanding of the mechanical structure, have look his famous design of
the battle tank. —– ( you can find it in the Wikipedia )
Just look how the wheels to drive the tank was connected. —— You must soon be realized, that the
tank can go nowhere, because the wheels of the tank rotates opposite directions, against each others.
Of cause, if it was actually ever built by the carpenters —– since even ordinary carpenters can see the
direction of rotation, the mistake in the design must be rectified and modified by them on the spot,
therefore the tank could have roll-out for test drive. But even if it was built and tested, soon they realized
that a block of stone or shallow trench dug on the ground can easily demobilize the tank and it become a
sitting duck. Oil and fire would burn the soldiers inside alive. What a useless silly idea 😀
non
And just give a thought to that famous flying machine design —– does anybody possibly imagined,
somebody in the world has the muscle to swing the wings of that huge heavy structure ?
Was Leonardo DaVinci such ignorant ? Still, he believed it is a feasible good idea.—– Delusion again.
Despite his big mouth and the pretense, he lack the brain to rationally figured out the possibility and
the feasibility of the mechanism. —– He literally draw the beautiful picture (or dream ? )
He was a man just deluded and intoxicated by his own fancy idea and fooled others with it.
He was only good to copy and draw what he can actually see. —– was that ? Really ?
Non
There are hundred of the anatomical sketches made by him.
They are no doubt, superb realistic drawings —– except some
unimaginable distortions, which he intentionally put on there.
Leonardo DaVinci was a member of the Free Masons and had profound Masonic
belief, hence he had the belief of the spirit. He believed the domain of the spirit
is in the brain, and because its spirit was carried in the semen, the child inherit the
spirit from father —– therefore it has been continued from Adam.
Its mean, the sperm has to come from the brain. And it shouldn’t come
through the same tube sharing with urine, hence having different tube in the penis.
So that he has drawn additional extra tube running from brain to penis, in his anatomical
drawings of the genitals.
—– Obviously he was quite obsessed with this idea,the same man who
could precisely observed and drawn the exact position of the urinary
tube from kidney to bladder still managed to falsify non-existent tube
in the penis. It’s not scientific at all. And if he was a believer of
the God’s creation, it is a dreadful fallacy, and contempt of God.
non
There was a strange paradox in his belief. Despite his profound Masonic
belief of spiritualism, he didn’t know what the spiritualism mean, hence
he tried to make-up the materialistic representation of the spirit
—– the semen as the substance of the spirit. ( Bad tendency of the inventor. 😀 )
( Inventor’s aim is to materialize the idea. Philosopher accepts first and try to explain 😀 )
Lots of people were mislead by his paintings of Mona Lisa or Madonna kind of images, but it was
just an assignment with money to him, it was nothing to do with his spiritual state of the mind nor Christianity.
Considering many of his drawing of grotesque faces, and above all, a man who got insatiable apatite to
dissect the human body, even a pregnant woman with a foetus inside —– it is not only illegal but
a grotesque feast of insanity. It was far worse than mental perversion. He actually took a knife in his
hand to cut open a womb, in order to draw the shape of foetus. Under the spooky candle light ! Oh, No.
This is the reason why no spiritual institute gave him any historical significance, other than
dubious DaVinci Code story 😀
Neither no scientific, medical topics or phenomenon was ever named after him. —– scientists, medical
academics never took him anything serious. Since, he was just a deluded pervert, yet able to get
away, just because of his powerful connection who has been fooled by his big mouth.
DaVinci was the most typical case of PRECONCEPTION which I wrote long time ago.
His dreadful gruesome act has been completely masked and forgotten by the smile of Mona Lisa.
And people were made to believe a myth of Genius 😀
( Those drawings are in the Queen’s Collection, Windsor )

Landscape — or Memory-scape ?
Landscape ? — or Memory-scape ?
I don’t know. It’s a photograph. Sir.
Where the IMAGE came from ?
It came from a memory-card of my camera.
So, you photographed this, what was the subject ? Was that a Landscape or Abstract ?
What you mean Abstract ? Abstract of WHAT ?
That is what I’m asking.
Ask the Camera please. 😀 —– It might be De-ja-Vu. Sir.
So, your camera can take picture of your mind inside ?
What a fancy imagination you got. Sir. When we faced the situation, what I can do is
either press the button —– or not. I have only two choice.
So, you are doing Zombie photography. 😀
How nice. Very funny. This is Zen Photography Sir.
That’s why I’m saying Zen is Dog Shit.
Dog Shit or not, can’t you see the scape somewhere where ever, not remember when but
far far away, long long time ago or in a future, we might have seen or may see one day.
You don’t need to think What is this about, but as long as the image absorbs your feeling,
and make your mouth shut, it’s all what needed.
—– But obviously this one didn’t make my mouth shut.
So I say. Shut your mouth. Just look it. You are thinking too much.
You are violating my fundamental human right of Freedom of Expression.
Oh, bollocks. Preach to the camera.
What a dog shit.

MODIFIED APE ? ? ?
As I’ve written “ Artificially modified Ape “ I received pretty strong contention. ( as anticipated )
I didn’t intentionally try to create argument though, I knew there must be a lots of contention.
Not mention the Christian Creationists, but even the ordinary Evolutionists couldn’t agree.
To my eyes, the changes occurred to even the physics of the Human, which were triggered by the
active Human selection, which changed or resulted the condition of existence is artificial.
MMM
Among the animals, such as the exuberant horn of Deer or the feather of Peacock were the result of
the breeding competition. The more prominent, the more attraction to the females, hence the Gene
of bigger horn had become dominant. This is a natural selection and the shift of the size of horn
would be regarded as a process of the Natural Evolution.
But, in the case of the size of Human boobs is quite questionable. When our far ancestors started
to walk biped, genitals became inconspicuous and male and female sees each other, face to face,
guessing the appearance of the others, with dark skin and hairy body, it may not very easy to appeal
“Look at me I’m a female “. So that, the female who happen to have larger boobs had taken more attention,
hence she had more opportunity to produce the offspring —– and the Gene to make larger boobs were
established. —– yet, big boobs is not actually contributing to the fertility nor good supply of the
mother’s milk, because it was made of useless fat.—– It is just for a psychological display.
In other words, it was the matter of the male imagination. Nothing to do with physical evolution.
( Selective breeding is not a natural evolution. It is a reflection of man’s Ego and Arrogance)
MMM
The more drastic change had happened in the Human history, when our ancestor gained and figured
out their stable life, and became more than just a hunter gatherer. —– Probably with some domestication
of the animals and the primitive agriculture or knowledges to keep particular plants as the staple food.
Hence able to alleviate a hardship cycle of plentiful and the starvation in the cold.
This stable life, away from the effect of the season, had the same effect of the domestication to
the Human animal.
—– With the (self) Domestication, Human lost the seasonality of the breeding, and the females
started to ovulate out of season. It was a change of the physiology lead by nutrition and the psychology.
( I couldn’t find any explanation Why Human lost a chemical trigger / Pheromone or sensitive nose 😀 )
All over the world there is a peculiar artefacts of so-called Venus Figure
with exaggerated body.
They are always in the early stone age. —– and only limited on that
period, and never continued. This fact suggests what had happened,
a woman in the colony had first ever bore the babies twice in a year,
which astonished the people, hence she became a symbol of fertility,
Mother Goddess. Though, gradually all the women started to show the same,
worship of the Goddess became pointless, hence, the Venous Figure was
no longer produced. ( This is totally new theory 🙂 )
(Photo above = Venus of Willendorf / Naturhistorisches Museum / Vienna / Wikipedia )
MMM
This physiological change was a result of the change of Human Life Style, generally called Culture.
And this change of the Culture was the results of the Intellectually lead Human adaptation.
It hadn’t occurred naturally. In another word, it was an Artificial Change.
—– Subsequently there were many side effects, consequential changes had occurred in the Human
history. Namely, such as the Brainization ( Imagination lead ) sexual behaviour —– hence resulted
even a development of sexual obsession. —– This is not a natural evolution at all, but a destruction.
(Without Pheromone induced sexual imperative, a sexual drive has to come from one’s MIND )
—– Big BOOB may not have any physiological value, still it would give you quite an
Imagination. Imagination always strays away. ( How exiting. Ha, ha, ha 😀 )
MMM
Thanks to the Human Intelligence, Humankind invented many new psych and the idea though,
they are too often far remote from what we started and originally designed by the Dharma.
This is the reason why we have two separate SELF in us.
The one is our Self-conscious (the One, thinking), and the other is in our subconsciousness.
The more we became conscious, we alienate our true Self which we only subliminally aware of.
This is the reason why Buddha taught,
“The Self in the thinking is a Delusion “ “Look at the Dharma without thinking “
Without thinking, is what Mushin mean. (in another sect, this is also called Detachment)
The Buddhism is to become aware, and to regain What We are.
