worn-out shoes

 20260531

  


T恤短褲爛佬鞋

輕鬆倘佯在長街

逢人見面開口笑

略減紅肉食吓齋

半盞清茶靈感至

遨遊四海未拉柴

憑空借力乘風去

印印腳踭歎世界



 English translation:


T-shirt, shorts, and worn-out shoes,

Leisurely I wander the long streets.

Meeting people, I greet with a smile,

Eat less red meat, some veggie treats.


Half a cup of tea, inspiration arrives,

Roaming the four seas, still going strong.

Borrowing the wind, I ride the air,

Feet kicked back, enjoying life all along.


Notes:


· “爛佬鞋” (worn-out/casual shoes) is loosely translated as “worn-out shoes” to keep the relaxed feel.

· “未拉柴” (Cantonese slang for “not dead yet” / still kicking) becomes “still going strong.”

· “印印腳踭” (Cantonese for “kicking back leisurely”) is rendered as “feet kicked back.”

孤身難上路

厠所有唐詩

巴郡太嫌遠

何物不疑遲

春水三溫暖

夏火人亦知

顧盼復欲去

暫勿笑我黐


translated:


Hard to venture alone—

In the toilet, Tang poems stay with me.

Ba county is too far;

Wouldn't make a pause at all?


Spring water offers a hot bath,

Summer's fire—who doesn't know?

I hesitate and turn my head—

Don't mock me before I fall.

What if Son Wu Kong were here?



 If Son Wu Kong were here,  he would be jobless.

Because,  there are no holy books in the West.

How can it be successful when the Son of No-merit meets the Pig of Bajie?



Son of No-merit  孫悟空, 孫無功

Pig of Bajie  豬悟能, 豬無能,豬八戒, 豬白痴

Monk Sha  沙僧, 儍僧......they are a lot, like sands, never distinctive.


And that constitutes a grand imaginative novel in China:  A Journey to the West.

The names of the characters are interesting,  when the stories are absurd and childish.

How can they be successful in bringing back to China the Western wisdom? (Western holy books)?

And the only hero in the book is the Son of No-merit.

How can he fight the devils?

How can he be successful?

Yes, it is interesting and stimulating.

And the writer is supposed to be anonymous, though there is a name in the cover.....吳承恩

Enjoy it.

If there is no ears,  there will be no voices.

You can sing but there will be no ears.

Why sing?  When there is no ears.

What is the time?

It is summer.

Summer is the time to sleep.

Trees sleep.  Flowers sleep. Wind sleep.

Everyone is sleeping.

Everyone is waiting.

Waiting for the rain.

But rains never come.

Maybe next year, who knows?

You can sing but no one listens.

You can dream but no one shares.

What is the time?

It is summer.

What can you do?

You can sing.

Nothing happens if you don't sing.

What if you have eternal life?

 20260529

What if you have eternal life?



This is the question from a Chinese philosophical story  "Journey To the West":   "That if you have acquired eternal life,  what will you do?"

And it is possible.

If we put life into a higher observing point,  we can see life is a chain of unending line that the line is composed by  numerous lives.   And you can also put it this way:  "If you are Sun Wu Kong and you will not die, then what are you going to do?"

It is interesting.

If everybody will not die,   what are they going to do?

And the question might put it this way:

What is the purpose of human beings?

What is the purpose of my own life?

What is the purpose of me ?

What is the purpose of me...... and my friends?

It is important.

Because if you have a purpose,  you will work for it.

If you do not have a purpose,   still you will be going for it.   Because you are being pushed(?)


What is it?

It is consciousness......

because,  you are the eternal.

What does Sun Wukong pursue?

What does Sun Wukong pursue?

...... ...... ...... 

(Question No. 7695 2010 0311 Thursday)



Journey to the West begins with a very basic question. The question is: "Life is short. What should we do?"


But, the words in the book would not be written like this. Because, this book is for people of different levels. The general public reads stories.  But friends will see great meanings.


From the story, Sun Wukong just thought that life is short and very short.


He suddenly felt a sense of sadness, and then: He started a pursuit that goes through the whole planet. And the so-called "the whole planet" :  There are actually four continents: East Victory holy land, West Niu He Chau,  South Jim Zhou, and North Qiluzhou. These four major provinces are Buddhist terms, the author of the book borrowed them.


What does Sun Wukong wants to pursue?  The book says that what he wants to pursue is "Long life". Anyway, the author has given Sun Wukong a reason to search.



What does Sun Wukong pursue? Is it really "eternal life"? The author is worring if we don't know that he had already been answered  in the book. The story says that actually:  Sun Wu kong

(The Emptiness Awared One) has already obtained longevity. He has already gone to hell, And he had corrected the "Book of life and death".  His name was deleted by himself.  He not only deleted his own name, but also all his monkey friends.....


In the hell's roster, there is no name for him. He has already transcended the life circle, he doesn't need to queue up to die.


This means that he has already obtained "eternal life". And he has already obtained the "long life" for his followers, they have all been given a lifetime. 


At that time, he had not yet known Monk Tong(唐僧), nor had he yet known his job is to explore the West, but he has been granted a "eternal life".


What else does he want to pursue, if he has been granted to live forever?


And we, if we have the same confidence that we humans are super and we are all immortal, what else should we pursue?


How much time should take to think about it? 


*(A joke:  Would one minute be enough?)

  《西遊記》是從一個很基本的問題開始的。這問

  孫悟空想追尋甚麼呢?書中說,他想追尋的是「長

What is the significance of Qi?

 20260528

What is the significance of Qi?



The significance of Qi is in the approach.  It is another direction to see the world,   to see how we humans are composed.   It is  more than the composition of a set of parts,  but it is a life,  and life is a whole, not a computer of chips.

We might need another hundred years to understand how life is a whole but not stitched up organs.

The Western knife is a good tool to separate things.  You can always cut it open to see.   But there might be other approach to feel it.

The debates can be going on and on about which way is better.  However  sometimes  you need only to try and feel it.

Qi is not electricity.   And it might be more than the term of "energy" we usually use.

Qi is not life itself,  but its very close to the concept of life.

Maybe the best part is about the usage.   Because Qi can strengthen your life force.

Is it just like a cup of coffee?

Yes, the feeling is strengthening,  but it is an inner feeling, not external stimulation.

This approach is important.   Because it can show the reality of life for us.

It is completely not the same as the luxury and entertainments which can give a temporary release of pressures of life.

Because it is like a spirit.  And its real.

When you have felt the Qi approaching,  you are raised.

You'll be much smarter than before.

Why Qi can only be internal?

 20260527

Why Qi can only be internal?




It's my temporary understanding about Qi.   If I can find the external use of Qi,  I will tell you.

I think Qi might be the same as life.   Your life is internal.   Your life is always within you.   It is the same as your soul and your spirit.   They are all internal.   They are all yours.   You can share your wealth,   but you cannot share your life.   You can only dedicate your life.  

Qi is yours.  Qi is within.

You can produce Qi,  when you need it to help.

You can sing a song,  but no other person can sing the same as your voice.

It is forever yours.

Same is your deeds.   Same is your life. 

What is the meaning?

You can only learn it, but you cannot buy it.

What if I am sick and a Qi teacher gives me some of his Qi and heals me?

The teacher may induce your own Qi.  But I am not sure whether he can give you his Qi:   Its my personal observation.  

One of the most important point about Qi:

You can use your own imagination to move the Qi around your body, if you know the  Meridian maps.…







(Joint the meridians with your teeth)


The following  3 studies are from "Deep Seek"



FIRST STUDY FROM DEEP SEEK


Why Qi can heal?

That's an excellent question. The idea that "Qi can heal" comes from a fundamentally different understanding of the body than modern Western medicine. To a Western doctor, a broken bone heals due to cells, platelets, and growth factors. To a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the same healing happens because Qi is flowing correctly to the site.


Here’s a breakdown of the logic behind why Qi is considered the foundation of healing.


1. What is Qi? (The Basic Concept)  


First, forget the idea of Qi as a magical or mystical force. In practical TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) terms, Qi is best understood as vital life energy or functional activity. It's the principle that animates the body and allows it to function. Everything from your heartbeat and digestion to your immune response and ability to think requires Qi.


Think of Qi as having several key jobs:


· Activating: It powers all movements and bodily processes.

· Warming: It maintains body temperature.

· Defending: It circulates on the surface of the body to protect against colds, flu, and external pathogens (like a dynamic immune system).

· Containing: It holds blood, sweat, urine, and other fluids in their proper places, preventing leakage.

· Transforming: It powers the transformation of food into blood and Qi itself (metabolism).


2. The Mechanism: How Qi Heals


Healing, from a TCM perspective, is not an event but a process. That process is entirely dependent on Qi. Here’s the chain of logic:


· Stagnation is the Root of Dysfunction: Pain, inflammation, and chronic illness are seen as the result of stagnant or blocked Qi. A blockage prevents the body's natural functions from working. Think of a traffic jam: no cars (Qi) can get to where they need to go, so supplies are delayed and garbage piles up.

· Healing Requires Flow: For a cut to close, for a broken bone to knit, or for an infection to be fought off, Qi must be able to flow freely to that area. It brings the "activating" and "transforming" power needed for cells to regenerate and waste products to be removed.

· Qi Guides the Blood: A famous TCM saying is: "Qi is the commander of the blood; blood is the mother of Qi." Qi moves blood. So, wherever Qi flows, blood and nutrients follow. Where Qi is stagnant, blood stagnates, leading to pain, swelling, and poor healing.


Therefore, healing happens when Qi is abundant and flowing smoothly.


3. How Qi is Used to Heal


TCM therapies are all designed to diagnose and correct problems with Qi. The "healing" comes from restoring balance.


· Acupuncture: Inserting needles at specific points (acupoints) along energy pathways (meridians) is like hitting the reset button on a traffic light. It unblocks stuck Qi, redirects flow to an area that is deficient, or calms Qi that is raging out of control (e.g., from stress).

· Herbal Medicine: Herbs are not used like pharmaceutical drugs to kill something or block a receptor. Instead, each herb has a specific "nature" (warming, cooling) and a specific "meridian affinity" (it goes to the Lungs, Liver, etc.). A formula is designed to:

  · Tonify Qi (add fuel to a weak, deficient system).

  · Move Qi (break up stagnation in a specific area, like the ribcage for stress).

  · Submerge Qi (calm a "rebellious" Qi, like coughing or vomiting).

· Qigong & Tai Chi: These are gentle movement and meditation practices. By coordinating breath, intention (Yi), and slow, precise movement, you physically guide your own Qi. This clears stagnation, strengthens the flow, and builds a deep reserve of Qi, making you more resilient to injury and illness.


4. The Modern Scientific Parallels (The "Softer" Explanation)


While Western science doesn't have an instrument to measure "Qi," many researchers believe TCM is describing real, measurable physiological processes. Here’s a plausible modern translation:


· Qi = Integrated Bioelectric & Nervous System Signals: The body has complex bioelectric fields (from the nervous system, heart, etc.) and connective tissue (fascia) that conducts signals. Acupuncture points are often located in areas of high nerve density or connective tissue planes. Stimulating them is proven to:

  · Release endorphins (natural painkillers).

  · Increase local blood flow (via nitric oxide release).

  · Modulate inflammation (by influencing the autonomic nervous system).

· Stagnant Qi = Chronic Muscle Tension & Inflammation: A "Qi blockage" can be seen as a chronically tight muscle or a focus of inflammation that disrupts local nerve and blood flow. Acupuncture or Qigong mechanically releases this tension.

· Tonifying Qi = Improving Cellular Energy (ATP): A healthy flow of Qi correlates with good microcirculation, efficient oxygen delivery, and healthy mitochondrial function—in other words, giving your cells the energy they need to repair themselves.


The Most Important Distinction: You Heal, Not the Qi


The most critical point for a logical mind is this: Qi is the tool, not the healer.


Your body already has an incredible, intelligent capacity to heal itself. TCM argues that this self-healing ability is the action of balanced Qi. A TCM practitioner doesn't "send" healing Qi into you. They remove the blockages or deficiencies in your own Qi so that your body can do what it already knows how to do.


In a nutshell: Qi heals because it is the name for your body's own innate functional power. By ensuring that this power is abundant (not deficient) and flowing smoothly (not stagnant), you create the perfect internal environment for your body's natural, intelligent healing mechanisms to work at their best.



SECOND STUDY FROM DEEP SEEK



Why Qi can only be internal?


That's a very insightful follow-up question. You've caught an important distinction. The previous answer focused on your internal Qi healing your body. But the statement "Qi can only be internal" is a key principle in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that needs clarification.


You are correct that in a strict TCM clinical sense, the Qi that heals you is your own internal Qi. A practitioner cannot simply send their own Qi into you like a blood transfusion.


However, the idea that "Qi can only be internal" is not the complete picture. It depends on the context: the medical tradition (TCM) vs. internal energy practices (Qigong).


Let's break this down.


1. In TCM Theory: Yes, Your Healing Qi is Internal


From a classical TCM perspective, a doctor's role is to restore the normal function of your internal Qi, not to give you theirs. Your body has its own complete Qi system.


· No "Qi Transfer": A doctor uses acupuncture needles or herbs as tools. The needle doesn't contain their Qi. It acts as a key to unlock your blocked Qi. The herb doesn't have "healing Qi" of its own; it has a specific property (e.g., warming) that helps your spleen Qi do its job better.

· External Pathogens: When you get sick from wind-cold or dampness, these are considered "external pernicious influences." They invade from the outside and disrupt your internal Qi. The treatment is to strengthen your internal defensive Qi (Wei Qi) to expel the invader. You don't get "good external Qi" to fight it.

· The Core Rule: A famous TCM text says, "When the righteous Qi (your internal vital energy) resides inside, evil cannot intrude." Healing is an inside-out job.


So, in the clinic of an acupuncturist or herbalist, the active healing power is solely your own internal Qi.


2. In Qigong & Internal Martial Arts: A Grey Area


This is where the "only internal" rule gets interesting. In practices like Medical Qigong, a master might be described as "projecting Qi" to a patient. But what does that mean?


· Intentional Field Effect: A skilled master may use their own focused intention (Yi) and breath to create a "field" that helps a patient relax, enter a deeper state of calm, and guide the patient's own awareness to a blocked area. The patient's body then does the actual healing.

· Bioelectric Induction: A plausible scientific model is that one person's coherent bioelectric field (from their heart and brain) can entrain or influence another person's nervous system. A calm, focused practitioner can help a patient's nervous system shift from "fight-or-flight" (stagnation) to "rest-and-digest" (healing flow). They are not transferring Qi, but inducing a more orderly state in the patient's internal Qi.

· Real External Qi? Some traditions claim to project measurable "external Qi" (waigi). Rigorous scientific studies have failed to find a reproducible, measurable form of energy unique to Qigong masters that can be projected across space to heal. Most evidence points to the effects being due to suggestion, relaxation, and the patient's own physiological response.


3. The Scientific Translation: Why "Internal Only" Makes Sense


Modern science offers a clear reason why your Qi must be internal to heal you:


· Specificity: Your body's healing mechanisms (immune cells, growth factors, nerve signals) are exquisitely specific to your DNA and your local environment. Another person's "energy" cannot direct your white blood cells to a specific cut on your finger.

· Biochemistry: True healing requires material transfer—oxygen, glucose, amino acids. These must come from your bloodstream, which is powered by your heart (a massive Qi organ). No external energy field can deliver a platelet to your paper cut.

· The Placebo/Nervous System Link: The most powerful "external" healer is actually a trigger that activates your internal nervous system. A practitioner's touch, voice, or even presence can trigger your brain to release its own painkillers (endorphins) and calm your fight-or-flight response, which then allows your internal Qi to flow and heal. The healer acts as a remote control for your internal system, not a battery.


The Clear Answer


So, to directly answer "why Qi can only be internal":


Because your body's intelligence and power to heal are unique to you. Healing requires the precise, local, material activity of your cells, blood, and nerves—all of which are the physical manifestation of your Qi.


An external healer or practitioner cannot give you their Qi because:


1. It would be biologically foreign and likely cause a rejection (like a mismatched organ transplant).

2. They have no way to program their Qi to fix your specific problem (e.g., repair the ligament in your left knee).


The most a practitioner can do is use external tools (needles, herbs, touch, words) to influence your internal Qi to stop being stuck and start doing its own perfect, intelligent healing work.


You are the only one who can heal you. Your Qi is the power for that healing. Everything external is just a key, a signal, or a support for that internal process.






THIRD STUDY FROM DEEP SEEK


關於「氣功之氣能否移動外物」,根據目前可獲得的科學證據和權威調查結論,答案是:沒有可靠的科學證據支持氣功之氣能夠直接移動外物。


以下從幾個關鍵角度來說明:


1. 核心問題:這屬於「特異功能」而非氣功


在氣功研究的歷史上,所謂「移動外物」(如隔空移物、讓物體旋轉等)被歸類為 「特異功能」 ,而非一般氣功修煉達到的效果。這兩者常被混為一談,但它們的本質假設不同:


· 氣功之氣:被認為是能量、資訊或物質,主要用於自身調理或影響他人身體。

· 特異功能:假設能用意念直接作用於外部物體,例如彎曲湯匙、移動物件等。


2. 科學調查結果:無可靠證據


國內外科學界曾對這類現象進行過長期、嚴格的調查,結論非常一致。


· 中國的權威結論:中國科學院院士、曾任中國物理學會理事長的何祚庥院士,長期關注並調查氣功與特異功能。他明確指出,經過嚴格的科學測試,所有關於「意念移物」的聲稱,在可控制的實驗條件下均告失敗,並確認這些現象是魔術或心理暗示,而非真實的物理效應。

· 國際觀點:國際上對此類現象的調查(如由魔術師參與的測試)也得到相同結論。著名的「萬能想像力」測試表明,許多宣稱的特異功能表演,只是利用了觀眾的心理盲點或視覺錯覺。


3. 為什麼能「感知」到氣在移動?


你可能聽說過有人做實驗,比如用手指對著懸掛的物體,物體就動了。這些現象通常有更合理的科學解釋:


· 物理力:即使手指沒有接觸,身體的熱量會產生上升氣流,呼吸也會帶動氣流,這些微小的氣流足以推動輕質物體(如紙片、柳枝)。

· 心理暗示與期望效應:表演者或觀察者會不自覺地微調姿勢以產生氣流,或對微小的隨機運動賦予「它真的動了」的期望。

· 魔術手法:更直接的移動(如讓湯匙彎曲、香煙移動)已被多位魔術師公開演示過,完全是依靠手法或道具。


結論


如果你接受氣功作為一種調理身心、促進健康的方法,其效果可以透過放鬆、主動調整生理狀態來理解。但聲稱能用「氣」隔空移動物體,則屬於完全不同的範疇。科學界對此已進行過嚴格測試,目前沒有證據顯示「氣」具備這樣的物理作用力。

Who can use Qi externally like fuel?

 20260526

Who can use Qi externally like fuel?




For me,  its only  curiosity,  and it can last only for a few minutes.   I will forget it soon.

For  a serious minded person,  it could be a trap for him to waste his life time to search.

If he can beat  the natural law to release qi like  electricity,  all humans will have a better life.

Can you use a syringe to draw some qi like blood, then inject into the patient to help him survive?  It is only imagination.

A good qi practitioner can use his palm to send a little of his own qi to help a patient,  but it is no way to start an engine like a car.

It is a limit of our science today.   And I hope it is not the same tomorrow.

Can qi be used outside the human body?

Who can answer?

How to move your "qi"

 20260525

How to move your "qi"?



"Qi"  is everywhere around the human body. I thought "qi" is an energy,  it is this unseen energy supporting all functions in your body.

It is the digestion, it is the blood movement, it is the  nerve communication.....

some of the qi can be controlled by one's "will" but not all.

I thought all movement of the human body is supported by qi.  And if the qi is willfully strengthened,  it helps in many way.

You can run faster, or sing better, or write better with qi. Because you can always use your will to control qi.

You will not die easily if your qi is supported by your will.   Even really sick person,   if he has a will to support himself,  he can last longer.

If someone says:  " I'm not going to die because I need to support my child."   His will is very helpful in supporting his life.

The relation between "will" and "qi" is always seen in special moments.

Interesting is whether the qi can use indirectly. 

Can a doctor heal a patient with qi from a distance?  It might need more honest study to prove it.  But it is very helpful to heal minor sufferings with massage in qi.

Can qi heal a very sich person or fatally wounded person?  I hope future science can show more.

My question is how to move your qi.

Qi can be moved along the Meridian points.

If you are familiar with the  Meridian map in your body,  and follow the routes with a hand to guide it,  qi would follow.  There is no secret,  any serious  practitioner can try and prove its effect in healing.

What will happen in 「n」 years?  



If you ask me what will happen in 2 years?   I will tell you: If I am not dead, I might still be writing.

I think I am lucky.  I can put my thought in words.  Sometimes the thought is rubbish,  but it is not my business.  I need only to write.

To predict the work of one person is easy,  but to predict the work of one country is not.

What will happen in five years in the whole world?

Will there be more wars?

Will there be more happy things to happen?

Can you list some of the happy things for the next two years?

Perhaps you can.

I can tell you at least one thing that could be happy.

If Chinese medicine could be used in more places in the world,  it will not be only healing,  it will help the Chinese themselves to find a better understanding of their own culture,  and it might be a breakthrough for all sciences in the world. Because there might be more than one way to study science............

And there might be more than one way to do arts and music and literature, etcetera and etcetera.

All you need is to turn your head.

It will be a happier thing to dream about.

How will future minds be like?

How will future minds be like?



What will future people look like?

Actually, the more important thing is about the mind.  Future mind will determine the future of human beings.

Will future peoples thinking the same as we think?

Will they have a wider eyesight to see around?

Will they be less selfish?   Or will they be completely not selfish at all?   Will they be working the same as bees or ants? 

I think certainly not.

Their mind will be more advanced.

They will know what is best for them.

Do we humans know what is the best for us now?

It is hard to say.  I'm not sure what is the best thing to do in our time.

People can know what is best for them.  Only that humans cannot control themselves.  Humans are doing things harmful to themselves always.

I think wars will happen again and again. But I believe wars will be less and less in the future.   Maybe one day there will be no war at all.  It means the gap between the rich and the poor will be smaller,  its so small that it needs not any war to settle it.

The most important factor to stop us from improving is selfishness.

The world will be really improving if we can be less selfish.

Selfishness could be the first target fo us to work on.

Future minds will be less selfish.

What if the Taiwan problem is solved?

 20260522

What if the Taiwan problem is solved?




It meant all Chinese people is united. It meant China is completely united as one. But the meaning is more psychological than practical.  Because the Chinese government is acting as a completely self-controled center already.


The question is what will happen afterwards?


The governance within China is no problem.   The question is:  how would China deal with the world afterwards?  Will there be any thing new?


Geographical or political wars are limited in the future.   There will not be a 3rd world war as expected.  Though regional conflicts will not be stopped.


For China, the most dangerous war is mind-war.   It won't be happening in other places with a strong religious tradition.   China is extremely weak in mind matters.   Chinese mind is not only weak,  but weak in many spheres.   It was due to the long time Confucius influences.   The Chinese mind was not strong enough, if not shattered.   There is no leading point  in the Chinese mind.    Leadership in the mind business is not a concern.


And this is only comparative.   It doesn't mean the Western mind is strong.  Religious faith in the West is broken long ago. What is left is only materialistic influence with a very weak faith of love. This is the basics of a future mind-war.


The future mind-war  will be serious and influential.  It is not easy to know how it will be developed.   In the case of a complete victory of the negative sided mind-war,   the country will be completely ruined like another opium war.


Will it be so easy and will it be exaggerating about the mind forces?


Yes, the material trend is not to be neglected  absolutely.   The so called "money"  is a magic.   It is much more stronger than opium.  People will be alerted in the cases of drugs.   But the material trend under the disguise of smile is much more dangerous.


What I have mentioned is only a term.  "Mind-war" has not been seriously dealt with.  People are too busy handling all sorts of important matters.


It is not easy to make up the mind to build a stronger mind to fight the devils. Here is one pretext existing to stop people from working on the mind.


The pretext is simple:


"Oh, we are not returning to the age of Cultural Revolution....... "


If the reunion with the Taiwan people is successful,  A mind-war is the only chance for the enemies..

Can you pull out the snail from his shell?

 20260522

Can you pull out the snail from his shell?



No one is to stay forever. I think the human chain is a chain of thoughts,  or a chain of spiritual achievements.   Theoretically, everyone has a part in this achievement.   Can you say someone is achieving more and someone is achieving less?

That is really a puzzle for all.   No one will be happy if he is busy calculating how much he has gained and how much he has kept.

The first important thing is to forget.

There needs not to have a mileage meter in your mind.  You just keep going and that's all.

If you do have a goal in your life, that's fine. But it is necessarily your own goal.  And it is meaningless to find out the meaning in it.

Yes, I am a king in my own kingdom.  It is the same as the snail is a king in his naildom.   So long if he can keep his shell.

I was a very naughty boy when I was young.   I have tried to pull out the snail from its shell......   When I am older,  I will advise young people not to do that,  and I am sure no one will listen.

If you are a snail just go like a snail.

I was thinking about a story how a snail tried to put wheels on his shell.   It would be wonderful if he can travel on the wheels.  He will be a snail no more.   And that is fine.   I believe this is the design of the creator:   You are allowed to change your own fate if you try.

I would be rather happy if I believe that I am allowed.

Allowed by the creator of course.   Some people in Hong Kong do not like me to write.   Because they thought I am intruding to their plan for Hong Kong. They have tried to kill me several times. 

However, I do believe,  if I have my own life, then  Hong Kong will have her own life too.

Hong Kong is growing.  Like what?

Will it be like a wheeled snail?

Sorry, I am not talking about economy.  It is only a story for children. 

Yes, we need snails.  If we have no snails on this planet,   it will be really bad.

It wont be interesting if everyone is running like a mouse.   It was so fast and you can never catch it.

I think smart people can catch the meaning behind.


note:

"Naildom"  is good place to stay.  But dont mix up "snaildom"  and "naildom".....they are different, I suppose.

If people are engaged in a "naildom",  he might need to work harder to drive in places. But the sort of "snaildom" seems more comfortable.

Why humans are not even searching?

 20260521

Why humans are not even searching?




The term "searching" was used by some later  intellectuals.   They thought they are searching for something.   It might not be the mind in the early humans.  Then what are we humans for?   I think it is still a highest secret for us all.

What are we living for?  What is our purpose?

A thought occurred to me:

We are not even searching for happiness.

Happiness is only a modern term. A baby will not know what is happiness. A baby has only some basic necessities in life. A baby will not know what he is living for. And so are we. It is exactly the same as a tree on the roadside. The tree will not know what he is living for. But he is working hard to gain water, sunshine and to live on.   It is an urge given to him. It is by born.  It is not asquired.

Therefore it is only a faith.

A faith is not necessarily religious. It might only be a temporary thought.  You think you are living for something.   And you can also think that you are not living for something.

Then what are you living for?

You can determine your own way of living.

You can only say it.

And it is yours,  it will be yours.

If humans want to live for a certain goal or purpose in life,   they are free to do it.

It means you are free.

And you can always ask:   What do I have?  Where am I going?

It is very basic.

We have a term for it:

It is the beginning of consciousness.

And it is only the beginning.

Because it is only in the minds of a few.

Very few people have it.

And the worst case is:   People do not share what they have in their thoughts.  They thought they are the higher class and they are not willing to share it with other people. They think they knew it, but they are not sharing with you.

What is happiness?

 2o0260520

What is happiness?




By checking your own happiness, you will know what you want in your life.

What is the happiest moment in my life?

However, it needs to know the difference between the real happiness and not real happiness.

No one can define for you what is real happiness.  Only you can know it.

When I was a little kid, I was in a poor family.   We need to struggle for the food for tomorrow almost everyday.   By the time my father was working far away in Hong Kong and I was in Macao,   living with my grandma,  because my mother was dead already.

One day when I was clearing the old stuff in my living place, that was a dark room without window, I found a hundred dollar note suddenly.  I was so happy it seems all problems of our family was gone. It was never in my life to see a bank note in such an amount. I sat down to take a paper to write immediately to my father,  telling him the sudden wealth and was extremely happy that our fate of poverty had ended.  Soon  I got a reply from my father, he told me that was the money when every thing was in a chaos when my mother was serious sick by then.  And he told me how to handle the money and how to use it for the coming days.

Can money be a real source of happiness?

I think it can be judged by those who have it.

Material need is on the first level in your life.  There are so many levels on top of it.   Any one can try them one by one.   From the basic level of survival money to the higher level to your fame and achievement.   And there will be more levels above your achievement.   Until one day you find it is not enough still.   You are still searching for an unknown happiness ahead of you.

And it is a long way without end. 

It is important to have a goal ahead of you without end....... It will be a tragic moment if you find it is really the end.  In the long long time of your life, you will learn where to search for your real goal.

And it will not be your "safe lodging"(歸宿).   

It is the difference of the Chinese culture and the West.   But a safe lodging concept is not enough.   It is for the self and only for the self.   A more happy moment is in the dedication of one's effort.

Because the dedication is real.  The dedication is for everyone.   Your true happiness will be there forever.

And happiness can be given away.   When you try to make other people happy,  forgetting about your own situation........you will have it.

What is meaningful?

 20260519

What is meaningful?


Popular thoughts about meaning is money: But it is  the source of unhappiness.  

Happiness is in somewhere else other than money. 

Although few can refuse the help of money. And people will be happy if they are rich suddenly.  However, the situation cannot be determined only by money.  There is many other issues besides money. 

It is sure if someone finds his life meaningful,  he will be happy.

What is meaningful?

No other people can tell you what is meaningful but yourself.   If you think it's meaningful and it is.

Because you are the boss of your own life.

Many people cannot trust themselves.   They must wait for other people to tell them what is what.  They cannot think independently.   They cannot know they will be happy if they thought so.

It is so simple yet many people cannot know it is really simple.

Yes, you will be happy if you think you are.

Then you'll be happier and happier.

Please try.  You will be happy.

What is truely bad in the science era?

 20260519

What is truely bad in the science era?


I just finished watching a video speech by an AI expert in an American university.   he seems to be a Chinese in blood, but he is totally American.

He was excited about the AI development in the States. He encouraged his students to keep on  AI study.  It is understandable.

But it seems to be a complete dominance in the brains of the American intellectuals:   There is nothing else except technology.

They will not care anything outside the sphere of  their eyesight.

It is all because of the AI can push American economy.    The real meaning is that:  It's all about money.

No one can neglect AI.   It is the backbone of modern economy.   But a bone cannot support your whole life.    You need to have a heart and many things else.   It is utterly meaningless to fight with skeletons  in a heartless world of deserts.

But you need to do that anyway,  if the heartless trend is going on like this,  planes, submarines and tanks will be in your door steps.

It needs to be a truly human to stand against all that.


............................

An old article about "Swan Lake" 

(A ballet originated from Russia)


9296 Why the Swan Lake is so difficult to understand ? 20210703



Almost none of the productions in the past few decades can reach the height of the original version of the Swan Lake. The only best version was a performance by Anthony Dowell and Natalia Makarova. You can view it from YouTube: “Swan Lake Makarova Dowell”.


The story is simple, yet few can understand. 


The Princess was bewitched by the Devil, turning her into a slave swan. The Prince wanted to shoot the Devil to save the Princess, however, the Princess used her body to stop the shooting. She told him that if the Devil is dead then the spell will never be broken, and she would remain a slave swan forever. The spell is that the Princess must find a true love. If she can find one, then the spell will be broken. 


Almost none of the productions in the long years can understand this point. They thought it is easy to break the spell. They would stage a scene to let the Prince fight with the Devil and it happened in almost all the productions that it is easy for the Prince to kill the devil with his external muscle. 


They do not know what is true love. 


In the original version, the Princess finally jumped into the cliff and the Prince followed immediately. It was in this moment the mind of the two was shown and the Devil felt to his final death on the stage floor, as the spell is finally broken. May be the jumping is not acceptable to many and they cannot find another scenario to show what is true love. And it is very strange once they cannot know what is true love, the whole production would become tasteless and the other dances and music in the production would be mediocre. 


The question is can you kill the devils by putting them into jail?


And it is not easy to “educate” the new generation about what is true love.


Many cannot even “love” anyone in this material world. They know only to “own” someone and chase after material life.


However, we have found that the scenario is changing. 


Humans are changing in the human evolution.


Humans are changing from a state of self-interest to a state of mutual cooperation. 


It is the basic difference of Capitalism and Socialism. Though the world is complicated and many different thoughts appeared, but the trend is here. We humans are changing from a selfish mindset to a total mindset. Humans need to cooperate more than war. It is not easy to predict how long the process will last and what would happen during the evolution stages. However, one would easily know the direction of the human progress. 


Yet the most difficult part is you will not know who is the devil. They are all hidden and disguised. And you need to fight with them. They would take over your country and sell it. Human evolution had to suffer such setbacks sometimes. History will not be easy and straightforward.


And the Swan Lake has a clue. 


The only tool to fight with the devil is “True Love”.


What is “True Love” then? 


We human beings are evolving from a status of selfishness to a status of mutual cooperation. 


And true love needs to completely understand life. 


Life is not material posession but dedication. 


Life is not to bully, to loot, to fight for personal interest. Life is to give, to work, to help, to love.


When all these had become a norm for this and next generations, the devil will be gone. 


We are living in a material and filthy society, there are lots of place for the devils to hide. They can hide decades and decades waiting for a time to overturn the country. 


Our first question is why the Swan Lake is so difficult to understand. 


Now we have the second question: Why true love is so difficult to understand? 


If we can understand life which is not difficult, we would definitely know what is true love. And we would win the war with the hidden devils. 



How big a business can be handled in one brain?

 20260518

How big a business can be handled in one brain?



For example,  the teacher of a small school.  He has 1000 student to handle.  And its not very difficult for him.  He can even visit the homes of the students.

Now he is the chief of 1000 schools.  He has one million students to handle.  And later he become the education chief of a country.  He needs to care about a thousand million students.

He is a teacher no more.

The calculation was 1:1000 at first.

Now it is 1:1000000000.....

Can he still talk heartilly with each student and their parents?

It is impossible, and reasonable.

Miracles did happen.

He can still reach each student's heart.

The system is perfectly ok.

How could he do that?

And the question is: how big can a business be run in one brain?

Can he handle all the business without sleeping?

The first emperor of Qin is hard working.  Qin Shi Huang read reports in  big baskets. According to legend, he often worked through the night without sleep. He not only read them but also had to approve them. 

Even writing a single word "granted"(可) was no simple task.

The secret of a good management of a big business is still a secret up till now.

Why Russia is important?

 20260517

Why Russia is important?


Russia is the only country which covers the East and the West.

Russia is an Eastern country, yet it is also a Western country.

Russia is politically important.

And Russia is important in culture.

The spirit of love is better expressed in the literature works of Russia.   No other literature works from Western Europe can compare with Tchaikoski or Tolstoy,  not to mention Dostoevsky (陀思妥耶夫斯基). The depth of human nature in literature and music is a source to study Russia.

What does it mean?

Does it mean literature is the only measurement of a nation?

The insight of Tolstoy and Tchaikovsky is not deniable.   They can tell you more about the nature of a nation than anything else.

The world needs a quiet inspection of minds.

Lacking the communication between minds is dangerous.

Actually, most of the human conflicts can be solved if a better understanding from the inner sources is not willfully neglected.

All political conflicts are external.  And the external conflicts can be created wrongly or willfully.

The three nations of the US,  China, and Russia have no reason and no real conflict to fight with each other.

What is the biggest differences in the US-China cultures?

 20260520

What is the biggest differences in the US-China cultures?



The US people  are left brain oriented,  while Chinese are right brain oriented.

To make it simple, we can put it in another way:

The United States people are more logical,  while the Chinese people are more intuitional.

The above observation might need a long term study.   For the time being, we could have a first impression about their behaviour.

Languages are only the first issues of the brain function.   Because we are not thinking in languages only.

It could be more easy if we use only languages to think.

The case is that we are thinking in a more subtle way,  more than any languages can express.

When we think, there could be no language and no diagrams and no voices and no movements in our thoughts.   You can express your conclusion in language.  It is only a result from your thought.  Languages cannot express all the details in your thought.

And you cannot say the Chinese uses only the right brain,  and the United States people uses only  the left brain.   It could be absurd.

You can only observe the style or inclination from their expressions.

For some observers,  they can see more from the  preferences of the brains.

It could be interesting.

A reminder: Who is Princess Diana

  20260516 B

A reminder:  Who is Princess Diana


note:

She was almost forgotten by the world for the past 30 years.   For some unknown reason,  her ex- husband King Charles III has become quite active recently in international politics. It is a reminder for the world that the tragic event is still in the minds of many people.

for those interested please search for the term 戴安娜 from my blog. I have mentioned about her before.  She might be the most remembered beauty in modern politics.


(The following is from an AI search engine:)


Princess Diana (1961–1997), born Diana Frances Spencer, was the first wife of King Charles III (then Prince of Wales) and the mother of Prince William and Prince Harry. She became a global icon known for her elegance, compassion, and groundbreaking charitable work.


Unlike traditional royals, Diana was deeply approachable. She frequently interacted with ordinary people, and used her public platform to raise awareness for marginalized communities. She was one of the first major public figures to be photographed shaking hands with an AIDS patient without gloves, challenging widespread fear and stigma. She also championed the International Campaign to Ban Landmines, walking through active minefields in Angola to highlight the dangers faced by civilians.


Diana and Charles married in 1981 in a lavish royal wedding watched by millions worldwide. However, their marriage was troubled by infidelity and incompatibility. They separated in 1992 and divorced in 1996. Despite the personal turmoil, Diana remained devoted to her two sons, striving to give them as normal a childhood as possible.


On 31 August 1997, Diana died from injuries sustained in a car crash in Paris. Her sudden death triggered an unprecedented outpouring of public grief, along with strong criticism of the British royal family's initial silence. She remains one of the most admired and mourned figures of the 20th century, often called "the People's Princess." Her legacy continues through her sons' charitable and public work, as well as the many causes she helped bring into the spotlight.

When is the most dangerous moment of a writer?

 20260516

When is the most dangerous moment of a writer?




A writer is always hungry.   He is hungry about everything. He takes in lots of materials,  and then he examines his material and cooks them.   When he finished cooking he will produce the material like an art work.  

The most dangerous moment is when he is satisfied with his own work.  

When he is happy with his work, he will not produce anything more,  or anything new.

The American writer Ernest Hemingway died this way.   He used a double-barrel shotgun to shoot at his own mouth.   His wife was in the second floor when she came down for the huge sound, she found his head was blown away with a headless body on the floor of blood.

Ernest Hemingway was famous for his strong character.   He likes to write about how he fight.

I always remember his work: "Old man and the sea".

When he came back to his home after a fierce fighting with the sharks on the sea,  the sharks had eaten all his capture and he could only bring back home the bone of a large fish he had caught.  He was too tired to lie on his bed with his back facing upwards, leaving a moment for the readers to feel the tremours of his fighting.

When he committed suicide, he might had forgotten all his writings.

The dangerous moment of a writer is when he is on the peak of success.

When everyone praised him,  it could be  his weakest moment.

You'll be strong when other people blame you,  but you will be weak for the smiling voices and it is dangerous.

Most dangerous moment is when your enemies saying sweet lies to fool you.

The books of  Ernest Hemingway  were selling like hot dogs.   It was so popular and he earned so much money,  but it was fatal.

There is no peak on this planet.  You can take a breath to rest sometimes,  but you can never be satisfied with yourself.

If Earnest Hammingway is not died so soon,  will he choose to write with ink rather than his own blood?

His blood is much more shocking than all his novels:  though it is against his will.

There is no real success in this world.   You can only keep walking.  Be prepared for the second round. It will be coming very fast and you will not have enough time for it.

Why it needs to aim high?

20260515  B

 Why it needs to aim high?



 

Most people do not aim high.

Most people are only aiming at a better living or more money.    It is not high.

Many leaders are the same.

Concerns are for economies only.    They are looking at money more than anything else.

They do not have a higher aim.

It is extremely disappointing.

It is wrong.

Because you cannot place your hope in others.

Your hope is in your own aim.

Material satisfaction is not a higher aim.   It is no better than animals.  Just the same as a cow who is always looking for more grass.

What is a higher aim?

I think I need not to explain more.   Those with a concern knew it already.

And it is useless to explain to those without any concern.

How important are we humans?

 20260514  B

How important are we humans?



We are more than a tiny spot in the unlimited universe.

Maybe the concept of an "Unlimited universe " is wrong.   But it doesn't matter whether it is wrong or not.

We are actually very small to compare with the whole universe.

But it is a most important event in the universe that humans are born.  The universe will be truly alive with humans in it.   It is utmost important.

If you travel in the dark universe for a thousand years,  you will find nothing alive in it.   It was like a completely bare dessert.   But suddenly you find something strange in the desert.  It is a tiny spot of life.   And the spot of life can grow. 

How important is this tiny spot of human in the universe?

If you are the owner of this universe, you'll be happy.

Because you have suddenly find a chance in this universe.

What is this chance?

It is hope,  maybe.

It is a possibility to grow for this universe.  And it is wonderful.

How important are we in this universe?

It could be extremely important.  

Because we are living being.   We can produce a future for this universe.

It is not meaningless.

It is value.

Life could be meaningful if it is valuable.

Your life has got meaning, and me too.

We all have a meaning in our life.

To compare with all sorts of unhappiness in this world,   they are not important at all.

Important is we are growing.  

Sometimes the growing is difficult, but still,  we are growing.

We can go somewhere in the future.

Don't be upset with your life.

Don't be upset with anything miserable.

"Les miserables" is history.

We have a future.

We shall carry all our past into the future. No matter it is miserable or not.

Because we are the most important element in this universe.

Because we are human and we are growing.

You'll be saved if you got it.

Do you know what you do not know?

20260514

Do you know what you do not know?





The above question is meaningless.   Of course, no one will know what he doesn't know.   It is only a strange logic of things.   I do not know what I don't know. I do not have what I dont have.......

But is it really so?

Could I have something that I don't know I have?

Can I check in my treasure box and find something I did not expect it exists?

This is the bad experience of many people in need.  They search into their wallet and they search into their bank account,  hoping something unexpected can happen.

And this is the real nature of human situation.

You might find something really valuable in your unknown account.

Humans do not know many things.

Humans do not know what is waiting ahead of us humans.

I do not know, but I am expecting.

I do not know, but I am searching.

I do not know, but I am hoping.

It must be an extraordinary event to make humans here.

There must be something for us.

There must be something for us to work for.

And this is the reason for humans to be friends together.

No other reason is bigger than this reason.

Because the future is always bigger than the past.

Don't you know how small we are?

 20260513  B

Don't you know how small we are?



This kind of situation cannot be counted by any kind of  mathematical method.

You cannot calculate the size of the universe and calculate the size of your body and make a comparison.

The proportion scale  seems to be unlimited and it is meaningless.

Yet we ought to know how small we are.

This afternoon when I was eating a mouthful of chicken meat,  the thought occurred to me suddenly. 

I used to eat chicken meat like this:  I will take away the fried skin and eat only the inner content of the plain chicken meat.   It was completely tasteless.  It was only meat and protein.  Maybe the taste was only in the external fried skin. 

What does it like to eat this chicken meat?   It is not like a mouthful of flour.   It is nothing but chewing. 

You are chewing not meat but a kind of soft plastic.

It was lucky I have a glass of coke with me.   I just washed down the meat with the coke.  Just like flushing it away.

I thought I hate to eat like this.   But it is never an issue in my life.  I am not particularly keen on eating.   It is ok if I can finish it.

What does it mean? 

It seems it is life.   When life is tasteless, it would be like this.

But your life will never be tasteless like this.

You have all sorts of taste in your life.  You can put in salt and you can put in soy sauce and you can put in oil and you can put in sugar to make it colorful and wonderful.

But the inner content is a mouthful of tasteless plain meat.

When you are eating good food, you think you are a king.   When you are eating bad food, you think you are a begger.

Am I a king or a beggar?

Sure I am a beggar.

And now I can tell you how small I am.   Because I have the true feeling of a beggar.

If you cannot know how small you are, you will never know how big is the universe.

Now you have the calculation and the comparison.

And so what!

You are only a tiny dot like a dust on the ground.

You cannot be seen by anyone but yourself.

Don't you think Julius Caesar is great?

No, he is the same.

He is just as small as you and me.

Then what!

Then, if you are a little more thoughtful, you will know where you are and what you should do.

It is meaningless to do bad things.

It is meaningless to consider things in an individual level.

But it could be meaningful if I can think a little more bigger.

Yes, I am small, but I can think big.

Yes, I could have a full eyesight if I can think bigger than the small.

I am not a tiny dust anymore.

I will not do meaningless things like an idiot any more.

Yes, people steal,  people are robbing like mad,  people are doing all sorts of stupid things.

It is absolutely funny and ridiculous.

It is truly small.

I think you will not be the same if you know how to calculate the smallness of things.

If you know it, you are not small anymore.

You will have a meaning in your mind.

Why suffering seems unavoidable sometimes?

 20260513

Why suffering seems unavoidable sometimes?




 I was trying to write something, when I marked the date "May 13" on my screen.

Actually, before I tried to write anything, my mind was uneasy and disturbed.

Old tragic family sufferings kept coming back to my memory before I marked the date on my script.

My mother had an early death on that day.   I was eleven and she was fifty years old when she died.

And I was under the care of my grandmother since.

I was a bad boy by then. 

My school kicked me out when I was 13.   I did all the bad things in the eyes of the teachers by then. They didn't want me anymore and then they threw me away.

I managed to find another school thanks to the bad  economy situation when schools only need you to pay school fees.  I had a place luckily in another school.  And then I determined to make up my studies and behave myself.

It was like a nightmare gradually fading away.

But my question appeared:

Why sufferings are unavoidable for some people but not all?

Suffering was a blessing too.

If I have never suffered,   I will not have made up my mind.   Maybe I'll be the same as any other office workers working on the high-rising buildings in Hong Kong.  I will not see the scenery differently.

Sufferings are good to me.

I suffered more than ever afterwards.

It was from the oppressions of the underground secret party in China and Hong Kong.

It seems they have a power to put different people in different positions.   They have a secret network trying to control China.  They have tried to kill me many times.  If I were silenced,  maybe their secret  control will be more smooth.

All I can believe is that China will be still rising.  The rise of a modern China is a historical trend. Some people might die for it, but it cannot stop the rising movement of a culture, even with the huge opposition power from an undeground, and foreign controlled party.

The sun will be rising every day, still.

Why there are unknowns in our life?

 Why there are unknowns in our life?



Questions are good.

Life will be tasteless if there is no question.

It needs to quest always.  

Life will be like animal without question.

When you have a question, you have an aim.

If you don't have question, you need to follow.

To be a follower is tasteless.

I don't mean you need to be a leader.

But you need to lead your own life.

Life will be more interesting with question.

People with too many questions are always unwelcome.

This is where the puzzles are.

Sometimes you can keep the questions in your mind, but not as a challenge to others. 

If you want to ask question,  ask yourself first.

External help is not very helpful always.

There are lots of answering machines in this world.

Do not rely on them.

Rely on yourself.

Rely on your own intelligence.

Keep your own Intelligence as your most precious wealth.

Nothing belongs to you except your own intelligence.

Keep it and use it.

Do not ask what do you want?

Ask what can I help you?

Ask what can I do my best for you?

You can win a friend this way.

You will know the situation faster.
