The psychological elements of self-discipline in this and other Medieval orders would be worth studying. Would these techniques work today? Or have certain “innate” character traits changed too much?

Don’t know where politics are more “Byzantine”, UK or Italy…

The tears are a product of “affekt”. And Gurdjieff, in “Meetings with Remarkable Men”, refers to this skill in composers rooted in ancient tradition.

The latest Dialogue mentions movie sound tracks and “affekt”. Two of the greatest composers are Nino Rota and Ennio Morricone (the latter is shown below conducting “Mission”)
-
Thanks Dana. I was listening just this morning! Few composers can bring me to tears and Morricone is one. Have you heard the album ‘Yo-Yo Ma Plays Ennio Morricone’? Cinema Paradiso! I like Rota, too . . . those wonderful old Italian films . . . Here’s a playlist with some of their best:…[Read more]

Great stuff .. love it .. Sure beats that hideous chintzy baroque crap ..
It’s Thomas Newman for me .. His music ALWAYS moves me .. It’s so haunting .. so simple .. so deep and oh so so beautiful .. “The Shawshank” .. “The Green Mile” and a hundred others .. Link .. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZ7DVOGRoaQ&list=PL2FE8CA2A10C8EEDF-
yeah, it’s the first 73 seconds that always does it….

I don’t know what the problem is Baz .. I HATE tofu but don’t feel I to have to engage in extensive intellectual diatribes explaining to others as to why I hate tofu .. I just HATE tofu .. Same with baroque .. I HATE it .. It’s the tofu of any music collection as far as I’m concerned .. Sorry but that’s just the way it is .. Sh!tcan me until the…[Read more]

One of my favourite movie composers is the Late Mr James Horner. Lovely movie scores 🙂

Send us a link, please.

Thanks Freefall, I hadn’t heard of Thomas Newman. His music is very peaceful and calming. Beautiful images too.

Sounds interesting but this gentleman is the first to bring up this topic: just look at Dr. Tiller’s studies on consciousness conducted over decades.

Brussels-Berlin Bankster panic is palpable. This draft document was probably leaked deliberately to the Huffy oligarch mouthpiece to test the waters. And if the “Gladio-minded” crowd out there get any strange ideas about stopping this process, let them be aware that their days are…[Read more]

For those with little time (most of us) you can skip the 2 interviews in the first 45 min. and go directly to Richard’s considerations.

Well, up to now Ankara (like most of the rest) has never cared much about the Palestinians.
-
They still don’t (nor does anyone else for that matter in the region). Hot air for public consumption.
-
No one has ever cared about the Palestiniens. Egypt tried to help them and got pre emptively bombed by American jets flown by Isreali europeans.. (what? the only indiginous people in Jerusalem are getting sniped at from the West Bank by imperialistic invaders from Germany and Poland.. As far as Im aware.. a covenant was signed with Abraham..…[Read more]

The land did not belong to Yahweh to begin with so he asked his minions to take care of it.
-
So you’re talking about rights of conquest. Its the same reason Hitler gave for the aquisition of Poland. they needed the living space, ergo. Conquered and owned.
-
-
I am sure the Bible would stand under contract law in US courts as legal title of ownership.
Every conquest recorded in the Bible is a title of land for the minions of Yahweh

DJ is proving to be a great investigator, who of course has his own background, interests and modus operandi; let’s hope he too will “take a leaf out of Dr. Farrell’s book” by writing and publishing his own book – footnoted of course – to bring his discoveries out of the ephemeral world of specialised podcasts.
