Intelligence

Filed under: people — admin @ 4:18 pm

Intelligence may be narrowly defined as the capacity to acquire knowledge and understanding, and use it in different novel situations. It is this ability, or capacity, which enables the individual to deal with real situations and profit intellectually from sensory experience. A test of intelligence is designed to formally study, under test conditions, the success of an individual in adapting to a specific situation. There are a number of different methods which purport to measure intelligence, the most famous of which is the IQ, or intelligence quotient test. In the formation of such tests many psychologists treat intelligence as a general ability operating as a common factor in a wide variety of aptitudes.

The charm in fragrance

Filed under: General, people — admin @ 3:41 pm

I m a freak when it comes to soothing chemicals and fragrant oils. Of all that I have tried so far. Panaway is the best and I love it the most. Panaway is a blend of Wintergreen, Clove, Peppermint and Helichrysum. This blend was created by Gary Young following an injury that severely tore the ligaments in his leg.

Peace and calming is a gentle, fragrant blend of Tangerine, Orange, ylang ylang, Patchouly and Blue Tansy specifically designed for diffusing. It promotes relaxation and a deep sense of peace, helping to calm tensions and uplift spirits. Purification is an antiseptic blend of Citronella, Lemongrass, Rosemary, Melaleuca, Lanandin and Myrtle formulated for diffusing to purify and cleanse the air and neutralize mildew, cigarette smoke and disagreeable odors.

Thieves was created based on research about four thieves in France who protected themselves with cloves, rosemary, and other aromatics while robbing plague victims. The proprietary Thieves oil blend was university tested and found to be highly effective in supporting the immune system and good health.

Self defense- a must for all

Filed under: arts and science, people — admin @ 5:50 am

The old-fashioned view that self-defense instruction is training to reach a high level of fighting skill has the effect of eliminating those individuals who have the greatest need. It is precisely those people who are unable or unwilling to become fierce fighting machines who benefit from practical self-defense instruction to the greatest degree. Our capabilities ought to bear some relationship to real-life objectives. People learning to defend themselves against assault ought not to be trained as though they were preparing for warfare. The concepts, techniques and methods appropriate for training Samurai warriors are not those appropriate for teaching self-defense as a practical skill for today.

Religion

Filed under: people — admin @ 5:53 am

Dedicated to finding the Logic in all Religion, the Philosophy in Science and the moderation to belief.

Faith doesn’t mean without question, faith is what is left over after questions have been answered satisfactorily. And even that doesn’t make it correct, because after all, it is still faith.

Consider this a group for Pagans who can see that a spell is about self empowerment and motivation, not omnipotence granting favor.
For Christians, Jews, Muslims, Hindus, all other main stream beliefs to see the commonalities off all belief systems.

Science and God(s) can never be separated. What made people made the world those people exist in.

Mostly though, it’s about hours of random conversations.

Landscaping

Filed under: people — admin @ 5:39 am

A dream house is never incomplete without proper landscaping. There are several factors to look upon for proper landscaping. Firstly you must consider how much you can afford to spend on home landscaping. Many landscape architects and landscape nurserymen recommend investing about 10% of a house’s value on the landscaping around it, although an acceptable landscape can be accomplished for much less. Once you’ve completed your plan, planting and construction can be spread over many years. To reduce costs, you can buy small plants and get do-it-yourself construction plans for patios, walks, decks and other structures. Even though your budget may limit your landscaping activities now, consider everything you want to accomplish eventually in your present landscape planning ..

The sacred Bhagavat Geeta

Filed under: people — Tags: — admin @ 5:02 am
Since Geeta is seed scripture,and is being understood since last approx 5200 years,the possibilities of different concepts are always there.It depends on self assessment also that which exposition looks more acceptable to any one depending on own choices considering it’s purely academic or metaphysical or both interpretations.As per Sri Krishna,one must obtain this knowledge from enlightened sages with innocent solicitation and best reverence to THEM.

Accomplished and enlightened sages have their own views too.Let us look to one saying from Lord Buddha:
Believe nothing,
no matter where you read it,
or who has said it
not even if I have said it,
unless it agrees with your own reasons and your own common sense.
