Limitation of choice is freedom

2017-05-22 21:33:59 UTC  

and self-limitation the fullest freedom

2017-05-22 21:36:58 UTC  

Self-limitation is utilitarianism

2017-05-22 21:37:08 UTC  

Freedom is non-utilitarian, meaning, unconditional

2017-05-22 21:37:19 UTC  

It's free from every purpose and direction

2017-05-22 21:37:28 UTC  

This is of course, from purely philosophical point of view

2017-05-22 21:38:24 UTC  

From point of view of practicality, self-limitation can yield superior results where abundance of choices creates a sense of a lack of direction

This reminded me of James J. Frazer's book, the golden bough

2017-05-22 22:04:21 UTC  

One of the most famous sources for "evolutionary" study of religion

2017-05-22 22:04:53 UTC  

Which nevertheless, willingly or not, was quite of a source for getting genuinely interested in spiritual matters

2017-05-22 22:08:58 UTC  

In exposing obviously, the central part that mortality plays in every kind of cult (though not making differentiations other than in the method of association) it's stunning how it didnt provide foundation to keep contemplating on the issue, but merely to remain confident in "rationality" which simply acknowledges death, but does not ponder

2017-05-22 22:09:03 UTC  

Golden Bough is excellent. Good primer for lots of Joseph Campbell's work. Reading article now.

2017-05-22 22:09:56 UTC  

What in science stands for "overcoming your insticts" in spiritual exploration can stand for the same kind of progress, but which does not lead towards conclusion that science suffices

btw i read only short version of the book, the thing is gargantuan in volume

2017-05-22 22:12:44 UTC  

I read it years ago. Agree that it served as diving board for some Jungian mythopoetic / spiritual pondering

2017-05-22 22:12:57 UTC  

I was smoking a lot of weed at the time

2017-05-22 22:13:41 UTC  

I am a genius

2017-05-22 22:13:51 UTC  

I figured out how to do brahmin diet even with inferior quality whey protein

2017-05-22 22:14:02 UTC  

first explain brahmin diet

2017-05-22 22:14:46 UTC  

I'm not sure I'm allowed to

2017-05-22 22:15:07 UTC  

in your case I am not certain I can't, but time will tell if I can

2017-05-22 22:16:31 UTC  

cryptic

2017-05-22 22:18:12 UTC  

LENTILS AND OKRA

2017-05-22 22:18:18 UTC  

ONLY FLATULENCE IS DISADVANTAGE

2017-05-22 22:18:23 UTC  

brahmin diet is NOT STEAK

2017-05-22 22:18:24 UTC

2017-05-22 22:18:29 UTC  

I LIKE STEAK

2017-05-22 22:18:32 UTC
