Human being; corps, soul and spirit together

 The human being is a structure encompassing a body, a psyche and a spirit . It is alsoan existential process and witty by his commitment, in the passing time, and in the cosmic space that goes beyond and questions our understanding .

Our body is perishable. the body-organism is a structure of perceptions through its organs . He is body-organ and not only body-material .

 It is the first object of communication and relationship to another . It bears the inscription of all that we have lived throughout our history as a whole. Physiology emits signs and messages resulting from the existential mechanisms programmed in him as in a computer.

The psyche, or psychological, characterizes the movement of thoughts, the stereotypical ideas, an intermediate world in which nothing can be built so great is the trouble. Psychological confusion is the basis of being .

The sorting that is done in the complicated of the mind, open to all influences, is done by consciousness . Of thisconscience stems from several concepts active in psychological work : attentive and sensitive listening to what is here, the unitary and global conception of the organization – we can not separate the body, emotional and mental -, the notion of the link between body and environment – consciousness is consciousness of something -, the temporal dimension in the future of human beings, the idea of ​​a potential to be discovered through the widening of the field of consciousness .

Psychological work can open up spiritual realization, and if it does not lead to the spiritual, he can nevertheless unlock, even dismiss, situations and behaviors that trap the psyche, in order to make the human being available to something else by widening its area of ​​intervention. Psychological work allows creative adjustment to the environment .

The mind is the cutting edge of the soul, the top of the pyramid communicates with the higher world .

It is identifiable through the quest for happiness that characterizes us. we are going to something, and this momentum, this energy that we have within us, pushes us to the realization of ourselves in openness to what is changing, different, unspeakable, in relation to this that surrounds us and mainly to others. We are as if pushed by a hunger for completeness which turns out to be the propensity to discover oneself, self, to deeper in his being .

That's when we resonate, with a distant echo that approaches until it becomes myth or secret memory .

The resulting revelation summons us to a change of perspective on what is near, and it is in overcoming the illusion of our desires and our cowardice to avoid surprises, that we are then under the obligation to “contact”  this impregnable part of ourselves .

The spirit prompts us to move from’ “to have” at l’ “to be”. It is openness to the Other who comes towards us, never seen, never experienced, to creative novelty in discarding our habitual conceptions that inhabit our old consciousness .

 The mind recognizes itself by what it is indestructible, simple, unassailable . He is the red thread, to be in the middle tribulations of life, that nothing erases because everything contributes to what is.

The human being needs these three components in the experience of lived in order to be summoned to the experience of a life of awareness, freedom and responsibility. He must be the companion from deep within himself and others, by practice, in its actions to outside, transparency, fairness, beautiful, good and sound exemplary.

He needs thecorps, of the incarnation of Being, du tangible, of what promotes the concretization of the existential path and allows the visibility of a goal towards which everything seems to converge. Consciousness of the body is the safeguard, who through certain experiences spiritual, lets you get your feet back on the ground. It is also the place of incredible sensations and visions .

The body resists its programmed disappearance – survival instinct -, and thereby seeks to reproduce and perpetuate the species .

It is the reference to our own body that creates others and gives them meaning. It is through our vulnerability that we can “to touch” the other, give it back to itself, and over there, we found ourselves .

The psyche is essentially the world of emotions. It is also the field of cognition whose extension stimulates research in neuroscience. It nourishes this will of the Being to self-preservation, to individuation and to the full use of one's abilities intellectual, affective and intuitive .

Speech is liberating when it comes from body and emotion, when she is embodied. find the words : a passage obligatory, the “talker”, Jacob's ladder in association luminous to what is and to what is beyond us .

The mind, his, can catch fire divine superior. For this he does not bend before the trials but seems rather seek them out to turn them into riches on a path of hope. It binds us, in resemblance, to the greater that we are. He is the tow which we make the fire that will ignite the established order when it, hungry by complacency and the lack of external contributions survives only by the “chosification” fruits of our world. He is the link unassailable and immensely clear and bright. He overcomes all suffering of Being to register, by an initiatory journey, towards the growth of self, towards more openness to what is beyond us. By this attitude, the ontological perspective leads us, through the process of inner quest of the fundamental mystery, to bigger than us, towards what seems distant but which paradoxically is so close, deep within us, at the heart of our being, at the heart of being .

In his social involvement, the human being must have a behaviorethicsin order to orient his life according to humanist principles – to be constantly reworked by affirming a knowledge stance, of wisdom, to let go, just as much thought what a meditation -, to allow him to stay the course . So will be cleared the traces that can serve as landmarks for future generations .

By the complex conjunction of the body, psychological and spiritual, we will then orient ourselves in the direction of the growth of the Being . So we'll do the leap of life . We will elevate our being . We'll be standing with our word and our signs , which will take us to our verticality at release who we are .

Between order and disorder, the complexity

  The ideal Platonist of order and intelligibility dominates all Greek science then classical science up to Einstein, cantor passionate about a religiosity cosmic.

With a view to traditional, disorder is what disrupts an established order. The concept of order is therefore first. She is of religious origin. order in the world is the reflection of divine reason ; God is the great organizer.

The study science of disordered states forces us to reconsider the dialectic order-disorder and raises the problem of complexity that goes beyond the framework properly scientific.

Discovery of an omnipresent disorder forces us to question the scientific bases of this truly mythical ideology. Disorder is first perceived as a offense to the natural order.

This connotation negative reproduces that which surrounds the idea of ​​moral disorder or disorder social.

The disorder is it not a threat to science itself that,  since she exist, worked hard to reveal the hidden order of things ?

The revelation of there is something scary about disorder, because the mess is out of control. He should therefore be repressed and reassured. For it, it is asserted that the disorder is only an appearance and that behind this apparent disorder hides an order, a perfectly ordered backworld.

    This conjunction of order and disorder creates complexity.

The story of the universe of life presents an increase in complexity, like Teilhard of Chardin had had the intuition. We are now talking about the pyramid of the complexity, complexity thresholds. So order and disorder, the regular and the irregular, the predictable and the unpredictable, combine to create the complexity.

In a structure complex, the order is due to the existence of interactions between the elements then that disorder makes it possible to better specify the constituents of the system for, the having named, then be able to put them in interaction. Therefore, in the systems, a dialectic emerges between the whole – the whole system – and the parts ; thus the cell is more than an aggregate of molecules. In the everything emerges from the new properties of which the constituents are deprived, the parts.

Everything is equipped organizational dynamism. Life can be defined as a bundle of emerging qualities – self-reproduction for example -. It contains simultaneously an element of order and an element of degenerative disorder. In this sensedeath is inseparable from life, andthe organization of life is made a permanent reorganization.

Cet office

 This office according to vigils
in the church of the catacombs
the priest in red robes
leaning his luminous magnifying glass
on the sacred texts.

Clarity of oral expression
the counting of the ritual
the essentiality of the gesture
tasted like a sharp blade
sharp sword of justice
separating the true from the false
in the slow ascent of the ancient myth
exalted by ritual.

At the heart of the matter
the catechumens
against the bare walls of the choir
lined up to chant
standing then sitting
the mysteries of the cult
which happened there
like on the sly
entre watch and praise
the Eucharist at its rising
marking the transfiguration of the divine
without feigned emotion
like the obligatory presence
flesh work
and mystery
bound in their incompleteness.

I sow with any wind

 The bells are leapfrogging
 on the credenzas of the sacristy .
 
 The pheasant runs along the wall
 meet his pheasant
 and show him
 what has to be done .
 
 The English laughs follow one another
 in waterfalls
 cheerful fireworks
 that would not miss for anything
 mosquitoes
 eager for blood gain .
 
 The wind caresses the tall grass prairie,
 motionless ventriloquist
 the fruits of the plane tree
 beat time .
 
 mature dandelions
 try their hand at Sème à tout vent
 All in One
 extensive program from childhood
 according to the dishes
 where the parents
 with knitwear and newspapers
 were looking for the joint shade of the ash and the lime
 as we pushed open the attic door
 to rub the metal capsule
 between thumb and forefinger
 between thumb and middle finger
 on the disjointed floor
 with becalmed wheat grains
 in the penthouse of the loft
 with discreet trapillos
 bringing up the dusty smell of aged wood
 that we accompany
 of rhythmic genuflections
 the attention paid
 on the little cogwheels
 able to hop
 playthings
 on the tour of France
 of our chalk paths .


 106 

Like a step back and a leap forward

   In the corner
of a mighty stone wall
whisper the spirits .

to be motionless
in the silence of expectation without expectation
of the simple movement of life .

Time to close your eyes
to pay attention to the present moment
to be with what is
was
in a flexible and relaxed posture
with our breath
with this body that breathes quietly
with these thoughts that come and go
observer
just looking
contemplate
this rising and hollow chest
with our feelings
with our expanding consciousness
see everything without anything clinging
to be in a spirit of openness and welcome to what is
in the here and now of our breath
and surrounding noises
accept the mere presence of what is happening
in the absence of the above
all around
and embark
by the unfolding of our thoughts
as light as their folding
sails offered to the wind
around the
where it all begins and ends
without the need for a response .

attachment

 The memory of this game   
 childhood origami   
 a paper salt shaker .   
 Between the index and thumb of each hand   
 " Choose a number " !   
 and the fingers opened and closed the 
salt shaker as many times as needed   
 " Choose a color : rouge, bleu, vert 
or black " !   
 and the salt shaker was unfolded at the location 
that chance designated   
 " you are gentle ... You are the most beautiful ... "   
 Was, in this image of the four rocks 
recessed, the game is frozen, crystallized, 
It is "granite" , it's closed and for so long, that the moss covers it .   
 This object "foam-stone-paper-game" bECOMES 
the starting point for the emergence of a 
souvenir, of a nostalgia, of a thought form , 
of a feeling .   
 Like a millefeuille open to all the winds, 
a moment of life emerges. Three small turns and 
then they leave ... there is emotion ... 
But why, in what and how this emotion becomes a feeling ?   
 The feeling, it is much more than a physiological reaction sprinkled with a zest of memorized culture . It is a complex function based 
first on a feeling then 
a feeling that comes from deep within, 
a pose, a way of perceiving oneself 
a given situation . But here, about 
this game, on the occasion of this " game-image-memory-paper-childhood-mossy stone ", What is it about ?   
 By the contact between the human being that we are 
and the environment, it's not the feeling that 
connects us with what is not us, with something outside of us. It would rather be 
Perception, sensation, the intuition that 
would be at work . Feeling is the temporarily successful emergence of a cultural fact that we have more or less consciously made ours and whose triggering object cannot be the only cause. . The object is only the occasion to appear .   
 We attach, most of the time, our feelings to the environmental world, social events, on 
imagining that the events that occur there - 
for example the use of our game here - are at the origin of states of consciousness that 
cross. I form the illusory hope that it is enough for me to control my environment, the object of 
my desire, to be the master of my states of 
conscience. I want to be in a situation of prescience, power over the world, to be the god of my emotions. But it's only an illusion ! Our intention is only a very small element of the source of the feeling which crosses us and on which we 
have no more influence than the weather.   
 Wanting to manipulate one's own feelings to 
avoid the lack, uncertainty, the fear, and be the demiurge of his own states, it is to refuse the spontaneous emergence of life through oneself. It's a great source of suffering !   
 The paradox of attachment is cruel. Our feelings, it's us, deep in our intimacy 
and yet we live them as if they threw us out of ourselves by focusing on such and such an object in the world . So " we no longer feel ", we are no longer aware of ourselves .   
 For instance, we think we love this woman , - " my love for this woman tells me , makes me understand, 
makes clear to me the being that she is"  - , romantic vision of the object that takes us away from the cause of the feeling formed by many of our projections .   
 A certain way of detachment would be to learn to dissociate our feelings from their object and to live them for themselves . It would be " to come back to oneself " .   
 Living and truly managing one's feelings is a necessary prelude to self-knowledge. .   
 And if in the secret boxes of the game's salt shaker  " paper-numbers-colors-chance-mossy stone - i will tell you who you are "  there were under the four colors, four precious nuggets to collect towards a sensitive approach to the self that would be Perception, the feeling, emotion and feeling, necessary steps to the knowledge and at know what to do with this knowledge .   
 ...  In order not to sink into attachment ! Feet and fists tied to our protective beliefs, to our fears .   
 ...  In order to live freely in the instance of Being , our real world .

the light

    Light is a bigscientific theme but also opportunityawakening, of aesthetics and metaphor of the divine. It is a Multidimensional Reality .

The light is the means that allows the astrophysicist to dialogue with the cosmos .

The light is the most noble element of nature, and the eye is the noblest organ of the human body .

in science, light involves not onlyphysical elements (how the picture comes in the eye), but alsophysiological (how the eye works) andpsychological (how the brain interprets the image) . Understanding light, it is also to decipher the mysteries of the eye and the brain . The light, vision and neural activity are inextricably melee .

The light is playing also a major role infields of art and spirituality. Because light is more than matter, it is also in order witty . It is by exploring the reflections, splinters, the openings, windows and stained glass and the luminous forms of the environment and monuments that man has erected, Rembrandt, Turner, Boudin, Monet, Cezanne, the Corbusier and Soulage give a soul to nature. By getting rid of shapes to leave room for color, Kandinsky invokes the imperious necessity interior of the artist to use art to synthesize the worlds interior and exterior and thus arrive at the great cosmic law .

The traditions nuns around the world have brought the light to the highest point . Art gothic is the art of light par excellence . Christianity speaks of’a god of light. Buddhism associates the dispelling of ignorance, source of suffering the ” brightness of the mind ” .

Man is defined by his representation of light . Let it be scientific, technique, artistic or spiritual, light allows us to be human .

science and peace

Science unfolds between certainty (evidence must be provided) andletting go (there is an unknowable In the universe). It is this tension that creates the search engine. The exploration of the unknown and the mystery brings us constantly face to face with our ignoring. A universe we knew everything about would be extremely boring. .

Science is not reduced to a technique. Through its paradigms, its conceptions of the world and its pedagogies, it bears the trace of diversity imaginations of humanity .

The way totransmit knowledge science and technology must be modulated according to the culture, language and form of spirituality specific to each country. The knowledge scientist does not tell us how to alleviate our inner sufferings, neither how to lead our life. He's not talking about beauty or love. This role returns to the mosaic of cultures, languages ​​and religions. Also is it important for future generations to be informed, in addition to the common core universal scientist, to cultural diversity, of language and religions of the whole world.

The advances of current science directs us towards the phenomenaof interdependence, of paradox, complementarity which are data coming rather from the East which has always been more holistic and less reductionist in its way of understand the world. The discoverers of quantum mechanics such as Bohr and Heisenberg went beyond the reductionist methods of Newton and Einstein to open science to a more complete view of the world by changing paradigms. Ainsi Bohr, to conceive the wave/particle duality of light and material was inspired by the Yin/Yang concept of the Orient .

And then, another one approach is now possible ; that based on a logic of absence as a witness of a presence. Thought, the mind, the subject, cannot be objectively circumscribed and therefore their presence is not to be sought alongside or in processes, but in the impossibility for the processes of self-justify. See for this purpose Gödel's theorems .

Far from being a failure of reason, the incompleteness of the empirical subject designates a space offered, at the heart of rationality, to the revelation of a meaning .

Only the teaching of a common core of scientific knowledge, accompanied by knowledge and respect for cultural diversity, can favor the arrival of a universal humanism which would favor the peace in the world .

Levels of reality, excluded third and included third

By level of Reality we mean a set of invariant systems subject to the action of a certain number of general laws. Two levels of Reality are different though, passing from one to the other, there is a break in laws and breaking of fundamental concepts – as the concept of causality by example.

Development of quantum physics as well as the coexistence between the quantum world and the macrophysical world have led on the level of theory and experience scientific, to the emergence of pairs of mutually contradictory exclusive (A and not-A) : wave and corpuscle, continuity and discontinuity, separability and non-separability, local causality and global causality, symmetry and symmetry breaking, reversibility and irreversibility of time, etc.

Gold with the Quantum mechanics, the fact that the contradictory couples that she put highlighted are actually mutually contradictory may seem like an intellectual scandal when they are analyzed through the grid of reading classical logic.

This classical logic is based on three axioms :

1. Laxiom d’identify : A is A

2. Laxiom ofnon-contradiction : A is not non-A

3. Laxiom of excluded third party : there is not one third term that is both A and not-A

But according to classical logic one cannot affirm at the same time the validity of a thing and of its opposite : A and not-A. You can't say that night is day, that the man is the woman, black is white, that life is death.

The quantum logic modified the second axiom of classical logic – the axiom of non-contradiction – by introducing non-contradiction to several truth values ​​instead of the binary pair (A, not at). It exists then a third term T, which is both A and not-A, which lights up when the notion of “Reality levels” is introduced : this is the axiom fromtiers inclu.

Let's represent them three terms of the new logic – A, non-A and T the third included – and their dynamisms, by a triangle one of the vertices of which is at a level of Reality and the other two at another level of Reality. If we stay at one single level of reality, every manifestation appears as a struggle between two contradictory elements (example : A wave and non-A corpuscle). The third dynamism, that of state T, is exercised on another level of Reality, where what appears to be disunited (where or corpuscule) is actually united (quanton), where what appears as contradictory is perceived as non-contradictory.

One and the same level can only generate antagonistic oppositions. He is self-destructive if completely separated from all other levels of reality. A third term, disons T’, which would be located on the same level of Reality than the opposites A and non-A, could not achieve their reconciliation.

not do not confuse the axiom of excluded middle and the axiom of non-contradiction. The logic of the included middle is non-contradictory.

The logic of included middle does not abolish the logic of the excluded middle : it only restricts its area of ​​​​validity. Thus the logic of the excluded middle is validated for simple situations, such as the movement of cars on the highway ; no one thinks of introducing a third meaning in relation to the authorized meaning and in the forbidden sense.

Howeverthe logic of the excluded middle is harmful in complex cases, such as the social field and Politics. She acts in this case, as a real logic of exclusion : the good or bad, men or women, nationals or foreigners, the right or left, rich or poor, whites or blacks, them inhabitants of such district or inhabitants of such other district, etc. He would be revealing to undertake an analysis of xenophobia, racism, of anti-Semitism or nationalism in the light of the logic of the excluded middle.

Et, in coming years, the introduction of these two notions of excluded middle and third parties included could they not advance the study of consciousness ?

The heart

 Without expectation and in concert
sweet entry into confidence
acceptance allowed
and always new
early days dance
jingling bells
small small
and yet so present
on the verge of friendship
of the advent of a coming day
in the reflection of a day that goes
passage in all seasons
step by step presence
to this shiver so sweet
the last leaves of the cherry tree
ready to fall
and already tense
in front of the gust of wind
and then nothing
just the heart
who contracts
and retract
against the warm palm
with that familiar hand
mom and dad
joined on occasion
of this great upheaval
what is abandonment
in passing time
giving way to the bleeding heart
in the heart of the moment
quick to open
in front of the heart of flowers
before the hearts of angels
a broad smile
on the faces of people who love each other
their eyes narrowed
letting a tear fall
outstretched arms
and wet throat
wobbly legs
to a cello tune
prolonged wave diluting bittersweet
in the silken whisper
of the world with mixed fibers
velvety liqueur
d'un heart that speaks to the heart.
