Eve REVERE – The YIN MIND: The Counter-evolutionary Forces of Disorder
EVE REVERE – Weight Loss: Can Not Be, Should Not Be A Goal, A Purpose, An Intent
______________________________________________________________ There are things we must learn, about life, about physiology and about health, in order to understand the title of this document: 1) What fat cells are, 2) How fat cells function, 3) What fat cells do, 4) The systemic relationship of fat cells. Fat cells are useful, important and necessary. Fat cells are part of the immune system. When the body encounters more toxins than it can process, using the immune system, fat cells … [Read more...]
EVE REVERE: Systemic Dissipative Structure
Systemic Dissipative Structure ______________________________________________ We live in a culture that commends that we get as much as we can and give as little as we can. Yet, life is characterized by flow. This motto, about getting and giving counters this principle about life as flow. In the book: Order Out of Chaos, Prigogine and Stengers show that dissipative structures, are determinate, when and only when the difference between what flows in and what flows out is … [Read more...]
EVE REVERE: Are Your Lips Chapped?
Are your lips chapped? We had this great 10 year old cat named Jack. Jack was a great cat and the kids would carry him around and sit on him and nothing ever bothered him. He used to hang out and nap all day long on the mat in our bathroom. We have 3 kids and at the time of this story they were 4 years old, 3 years old, and 1 year old. The middle one is … [Read more...]
EVE REVERE: The Interpreter’s Overlay to Decoding Scientific Certainty
The YIN MIND ___________________________________________________________ We have many clichés and unthinking axioms, which we deploy, when we are challenged, with the deficiencies, the non-sequitor reasonings, of science, as a superstition: i.e. 'seeing is believing’ ‘I’m from Missouri’ translated as ‘observational sensing is a safe criteria for reality’. We can not safely derive truth from reasoning. We can not and should not trust words to be … [Read more...]
EVE REVERE: The YIN MIND – Thriving Transformation versus survival
The YIN MIND ___________________________________________________________ We need to follow a paradigm of thriving transformation, versus the defensive, protectionist, paradigm of survival. We are overshadowed by a culture of perpetuation, of continuation, of static, status quo mentality. The cry, the plea, the tactics of strategic failure are: preserve what you have versus heed what you may fail to gain. Zen, as a spiritual discipline . . . is … [Read more...]
The Very Gentlest of Ways, “Tip-toe through the tulips . . . “
The YIN MIND ___________________________________________________________ As far back as I can remember, I have always wanted only that to which I was most welcome. It even applied to attention, to regard, to respect. Most of all, it applied to love. So often, I've challenged gestures of generosity. Part of the reason for that was to try to discriminate between bartered gifts and that which was really meant to support, uphold, nourish, what I hold as purpose. As though I … [Read more...]
The YIN MIND: ‘Beyond Christianity, Religiosity and Academia . . . to Spirituality’
The YIN MIND ___________________________________________ The Vatican has a vast and an ancient library. There is only one person who can remove a book from that library: The Pope. One such Pope, Pope Leo X (1513 – 1521) said: “How well we know what a profitable superstition this fable of Christ has been for us.” There is a book, The Lost Wisdom of the Ancient Masters by Professor Hilton Hotema. Professor Hotema said: … [Read more...]
Your Thoughts Form Your Reality – The YIN MIND
“Events are not things that happen to you. Events are materialized experiences formed by you, according to your expectations and your beliefs.” “If you are in poor health, you can remedy it. If your personal relationships are unsatisfactory, you can change them for the better. If you are in poverty, you can instead find yourself surrounded by abundance...” “This does not mean that effort is not required, and determination. It does mean that you are not … [Read more...]

EVE REVERE: The YIN MIND – ‘To Know or To Fail To Know’
The YIN MIND ___________________________________ All knowing, all knowledge, constitutes a gradient of aboutness. In every kind and in every degree of knowing, there are some characteristics, some properties, some details, we ignore, we neglect, we fail to take into account. Our nouns, our names for things, do not invoke the same references in any two users of these terms. What do we communicate? What can we communicate? All knowing, all … [Read more...]
The Knowing Via Resonant and Harmonic Interacton @ EVE REVERE
What is it that makes visceral recognition possible? What is it that makes structuralism (knowing without learning), the concept of Claude Levi Strauss, possible? It is resonant, harmonic, interdependent interaction: when oscillation, vibration, at a subconscious level, reveals, discloses or betrays a nature, a condition, an intent, a character or a bearing. Animals have it. Animals act upon it. Dogs growl, or attack, or wag their tails and affectionately … [Read more...]
The YIN MIND – Core Principles or The Foundational Basis of Life
The YIN MIND ______________________________________________________________ To generate a thematic reference, from which the core principles can be inferred there are four books with which I would begin: The Nature of Personal Reality, by Jane Roberts, Journey of Souls, by Dr. Michael Newton, Ph.D., Destiny of Souls, by Dr. Michael Newton, Ph.D., Secret Oral Teachings of Tibetan Buddhist Sects by Alexandra David-Neel. The context of these four (4) books can … [Read more...]
Transformed Mind @ Eve Revere
The Transformed Mind __________________________________________________________ Polite Words __________________________________________________________ Polite words are ineffective, people think it doesn't make much difference Angry words are ineffective, people think you're just up tight . . . words are ineffective, people think you're just talking words . . . what instead? Actions? Actions say too little, too slowly Killing is inarticulate ! Love is thought to be insincere ! So I resign ! … [Read more...]
EVE REVERE: The YIN MIND – Systemic Scheme Enlargement
The YIN MIND ___________________________________________________________ Do we want to solve problems or do we want to find systemic optimums and discover high ideals? The problem / remedy paradigm directs our attention by means of the question: What’s wrong? Our culture, our society, is saturated with this orientation. In the face of an overwhelming info-glut 1) we specialize, 2) we simplify (by arbitrary elimination), 3) we break problems down (into manageable parts). What if the real … [Read more...]
