The Yin Mind looks at the innermost functions of women, the essence of being female. What has been written before, has presented challenges, provocation, perhaps disturbance, to the ideal meant to be affirmed, asserted, expressed and advocated. Now, here, the threshold has been crossed. We enter the substance, the inner physiology, the psychology of the female mind. So often we read, in these pages, about the appearance, the style the presentation of the female form as a canvas upon … [Read more...]

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: 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...]

Eve REVERE – The YIN MIND: Science, The Pursuit of Knowledge
The YIN MIND ____________________________________ The very word: “science” means precisely what is contained in and is conveyed by the phrase: “the pursuit of knowledge”. However, science is a particular set of means and a group of methods of pursuing knowledge. The axioms and the truisms of science need close examination and a very full consideration, in order to disclose and in order to reveal: embedded superstitions and concealed assumptions that are cloaked and … [Read more...]
