Two Types Of Medicine – Plato

Plato et al

“There are two types of medicine, that of slaves and that of men. That of the slaves must quickly remove the symptom so they can go back to work. That for free men tries to understand the symptom, its meaning for the health of the body in its indivisible unit, to reach the balance of the whole person.” – Plato

Albert Einstein on Love

Albert Einstein on Love

In the late 1980s, Lieserl, the daughter of the famous genius, donated 1,400 letters, written by Einstein, to the Hebrew University, with orders not to publish their contents until two decades after his death. This is one of them, for Lieserl Einstein.
…”When I proposed the theory of relativity, very few understood me, and what I will reveal now to transmit to mankind will also collide with the misunderstanding and prejudice in the world.
I ask you to guard the letters as long as necessary, years, decades, until society is advanced enough to accept what I will explain below.
There is an extremely powerful force that, so far, science has not found a formal explanation to. It is a force that includes and governs all others, and is even behind any phenomenon operating in the universe and has not yet been identified by us.
This universal force is LOVE.
When scientists looked for a unified theory of the universe they forgot the most powerful unseen force.
Love is Light, that enlightens those who give and receive it.
Love is gravity, because it makes some people feel attracted to others.
Love is power, because it multiplies the best we have, and allows humanity not to be extinguished in their blind selfishness. Love unfolds and reveals.
For love we live and die.
Love is God and God is Love.
This force explains everything and gives meaning to life. This is the variable that we have ignored for too long, maybe because we are afraid of love because it is the only energy in the universe that man has not learned to drive at will.
To give visibility to love, I made a simple substitution in my most famous equation.
If instead of E = mc2, we accept that the energy to heal the world can be obtained through love multiplied by the speed of light squared, we arrive at the conclusion that love is the most powerful force there is, because it has no limits.
After the failure of humanity in the use and control of the other forces of the universe that have turned against us, it is urgent that we nourish ourselves with another kind of energy…
If we want our species to survive, if we are to find meaning in life, if we want to save the world and every sentient being that inhabits it, love is the one and only answer.
Perhaps we are not yet ready to make a bomb of love, a device powerful enough to entirely destroy the hate, selfishness and greed that devastate the planet.
However, each individual carries within them a small but powerful generator of love whose energy is waiting to be released.
When we learn to give and receive this universal energy, dear Lieserl, we will have affirmed that love conquers all, is able to transcend everything and anything, because love is the quintessence of life.
I deeply regret not having been able to express what is in my heart, which has quietly beaten for you all my life. Maybe it’s too late to apologize, but as time is relative, I need to tell you that I love you and thanks to you I have reached the ultimate answer! “.
Your father Albert Einstein

Something To Aim For

My sensibilities are continually assaulted by the huge disparity between the existing scene and what I hold to be an ideal scene for society.

And if it is true that we get that on which we put our attention, then I better start putting my (and a lot of other people’s as this reality is created by agreement) attention on what it is we consider desirable!

So I tender this draft:

The Purpose of a Government:

To provide a peaceful, secure operating and living environment for our citizens and neighbours to be free from oppression so they can flourish and prosper.

To maintain a clean, unpolluted environment (land, air, water and sea) that supports and encourages abundant plant, animal, bird and human life.

The Product of a Government:

A safe environment, secure internally and from exterior threat where the population are free to pursue constructive goals without oppression.

Abundant highly arable land sufficient to accommodate our present and future food needs and provide excess with which we can help less fortunate neighbours in times of famine or crisis.

Fresh, clean, unpolluted water in abundance of our present and future needs.

A healthy, ethical, educated population, competent in communication, coexistence, logic and problem solving and broadly and extensively skilled in their chosen endeavour.

As you can readily see, the governments that we have must be working on other purposes and products or there must be huge opposition to the attainment of the above, or both, as we do not have what most would think desirable.

I consider that we need to be continually putting the attention of the government on the above (or a better version of it) and start holding the members accountable for the non-attainment of the proper product of government!

Letting rioters and looters destroy property and harm or kill people is the exact opposite of proper government and any governor, mayor or police chief who lets this happen on their watch should be summarily dismissed with no pension and charged with treason on their post.
