Then she will criticise him for not fulfilling her because his neurology and psychology is inevitably different from her previous partners. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">It is her comfort zone, her buffer against emotional loss as she already experienced and which she is attempting to process by the act-stimulation of specific energetic alignment through her. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">Although disappointed with him the new partner will be easier to let go of because of this. She does not want to form a strong bond with the current partner. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">She is using the current partner to let go of someone from her past. When she lets go of the new one her healing from being dumped by the previous one will be relieved. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">It’s a destructive cycle. It’s a black hole. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">Alternately she could work with the new guy to build real-time positive neuron-synaptic structures for a better, higher value experience. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">In sexual relationships THIS is the key for success. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">The problem affecting such unions is the Feminist creed that “All men want is sex and must be punished for that.” </p><p style="text-align: justify;">In Tantra is observed “the way to open a man’s heart is through his genitals, the way to open a woman’s genitals is through her heart.” </p><p style="text-align: justify;">How are heartless and broken hearted people supposed to go about conducting their activities? </p><p style="text-align: justify;">Historically, traditionally, requires one of three methods. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">A loving willing sexual woman working with him. Requires femininity. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">A prostitution who exchanges sexual relief for money or gifts. A strong woman with coping mechanism. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">Rape. Typified by over-masculine forcing a feminine woman who is unable to fight back. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">It is because of rape that women have evolved to form female-exclusive community-groups, very often empowered by bitterness and anger toward all men mixed with the natural need to respect men as protectors. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">A second-level has developed as a result of this confused duality, where the mixed signals women are famous for perpetually ‘testing’ men with, to identify which side of a line a man is, ‘us or them’, whether he can be trusted by one or by the group. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">Trust between genders is a core of a stable community and civilisation. Anything which does not empower that trust is an enemy of stable community and civilisation. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">In our communities, Feminism is responsible for the collective group of women persuading all women to distrust all men even after the men have proved they are safe and can be trusted. The men are tested to death. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">They are singled out and isolated to ‘make a man of them’ or to ‘destroy them for our pleasure oh we mean security’. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">What such men have to go through emotionally, mentally, spiritually, physically, to become ‘their full potential’ is a lot of female-to-male domestic abuse. If these targeted men do not break and/or drop out of normative culture, usually by suicide or ‘going gay’. It is a pressure-based society. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">This social pressure results in a further diversion where women turn to other women for gratification and men turn to other men for gratification. It creates segregated gay and lesbian cultures with minimal overlap. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">While we bundle all these into one mixed bag of ‘LGBT+’ the true middle ground between these polarisations is the mainstream heteronormative culture which is the breeding pool involved in successful child raising of adults who can thrive better, as studies have showed. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">This is the exact demographic targeted by the LGBT+ groups for destruction. These non-normative minority groups shout loudly they require protection. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">Noah’s Ark refers to the unborn future generations which are the ecology and the biosphere is all species. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">The sort of sex necessary to grab those neuron’s and synaptic links and re-wire them is when she has trusted her partner sufficiently to allow him to have her his way, to have his way with her, without him having to compromise with her controlling and testing. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">With their programming of each other through sexual-neurological energetic connection. Ideally this is a mutual growing together of shared novel experience to create their own harmonious two-body neural system. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">She living in her full femininity, he living in his full masculinity, both in harmony about their Union. It is why this sort of sexuality is regarded as sacred sexuality, the divine masculine and the divine feminine, Yin and Yang in balance.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">The structure of BDSM culture provides a framework by recognising four primary roles of submissive, Dominant, Switch and Brat. There are many sub-categories stemming from each role and overlaps between each role. The development of awareness surrounding these matters since the 1960s ‘S&M’ has established; </p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;">- these are Roles </p><p style="text-align: justify;">- it is not always black & white, hence a need for Switch role</p><p style="text-align: justify;">- need for discussion of the roles & expectancies </p><p style="text-align: justify;">- prevalence of the non-conformist Brat role, is entitlement based </p><p style="text-align: justify;">- training is required for orientation </p><p style="text-align: justify;">- consent is imperative </p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;">As a result of cultural man-hate, men are being pushed out of the childcare arena. Boys are not learning how to become men. A woman cannot teach a boy to become a man any more than a man can teach a girl to become a woman. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">We live during an era of gender-bending where the old fashioned traditional hetero-normative cultural roles have already been largely destroyed in Western civilisation. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">A prevalence of single-parent mothers griping about absent fathers and taking it out on a string of disposable lovers who are emotionally and financially exploited for attempting to satisfy the human need for partnership and do their best to raise other mens children without any training in how to deal with any of that. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">This has become the mainstream expectation for almost all men. How do men adapt to that culture-wide situation? </p><p style="text-align: justify;">The Traditional Gender Roles are based on trust and dedication. A sign in my local marriage registry office; </p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><i>“Marriage is the world between two people to the exclusion of all others.” </i></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;">You don’t have to register (‘transfer title ownership of deeds’) a marriage. The marriage is the relationship. The energy between two people exclusively.

line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">“That initial idea, that initial inspiration, that’s always the one that is the truth. As we start a journey we keep saying yes to more things because we are on a journey and its exciting and its new and were uncertain so we keep saying yes and so that initial inspiration gets lost. Then we feel like, what did I even want to do? So when we start to again energetically feel how something feels you’re going to start to be able to wash away all the residual energy and feel back to your self. The confident charming shining inspiration to all, Self. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Any time when you are feeling heavy, dense, burned it just means you have been saying yes to things which really aren’t your truth and hoping for the best. ‘If I say yes to more then more is better, right?’ Less is actually more here on planet Earth. You’re better off.</span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">For instance with your diet. Your diet is your fuel. Our avatar needs fuel but you doesn’t need much fuel. You need a certain amount of things then your body lets you know. You need a foundation of fuel. So when you chose five foods that you love that feel good for you that are nutrient dense, start there. Eat those for a while you’re going to realise your body calls for this. You’re going to be able to hear and listen to what is meant for you because you don’t have so much going on. When you’re constantly making new recipes and having different foods and there is so much, you don’t really know what you want because there is so much going on. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">It is the same with our lives. When we have so much going on we can’t actually hear what we are being called into or what feels best for us. Thats the method of grounding yourself. You’re better off simplifying. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Worrying is like paying a debt which you don’t owe. Simplify, release those burdens, let go. Thats when we are going to be able to receive the guidance, the clarity and the proper knowing. It does feel you’re being guided into. If you have someone around you who is feeling like its a burden, there is a person sun your life where the energy no longer clicks, if you’ve been thinking about someone from your past like an ex relationship or something, this disconnection this unharmonious relationship, you’re going to let it go and you’re going to have a new focus. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">If you have someone in your awareness who is taking up all your energy because you’re thinking about them, the lack of connection, how did this go wrong, whatever it may be, letting that go will give you so much energy for you to put toward the things in your life that matter. At the end of the day this is your life, this is your movie. A lot of the times we put a lot of emphasis on things going a certain way with a certain somebody but the universe has got you covered. Everything thats going to show up is going to show up for you. Be mindful. You don’t need to worry about fixing things, worrying about things. Take care of yourself. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">This is your affirmation for the day: </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>Gratitude is the life force of everything.</b></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Being grateful immediately raises your frequency. Look forward to where you want to be. Spend no time complaining and focussing about where you are. Where you are currently is what you have already thought about. Where you are now you can’t change it. You can only change how you feel to affect what shows up for yo in the upcoming hours, days, months years and so forth. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">What you think you become. What you feel you attract. What you imagine you create.</span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Get used to prioritising with going within and connecting with your higher self, the higher power within you. This is your guiding force.</span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">It is really dense here on planet earth. We feel very uncomfortable as empaths. Higher Self always guides us toward exercise, being outside, nature, dogs, calm, grounded, Love; these are the kind of things we want to surround our awareness with because when we are aware of these things, when we feel these things, we attract these things. That’s why if you’re ever trying to figure something out, don’t look at the surface of it. Feel how it feels. If it’s something you want to include into your life. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Maybe there was somebody in your life that didn’t feel very good but you were thinking ‘this is going to be it!’ Maybe you’re holding onto this person. But if you feel out energetically what was actually happening there it probably wasn’t the right fit. There were probably a lot of red flags. ‘I did see that but I thought it was like this’, we brush it off. Feel into it because it will release any discomfort or resentment around the situation not going the way you thought it was, or you thought you did something wrong or whatever. If we actually feel the situation it wasn’t the best case scenario, then we can get a little bit more real with ourselves.</span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The universal method is do something new, do something different. It’s always about understanding we don’t want to stay caught up in old patterns off thought and behaviours.</span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="https://www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/3859674681412731052/1343839303174762491#" target="_blank">VIRGO — WTF!

It is an adaptation of the yogic lotus position more designed for sex. So immediately it invokes the spirit of sacred sexuality. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The reason I like Nadu is because it puts the woman at the centre of the universe. It squares her hips, aligns her spine and relaxes her organs ready for sex. The chi or kundalini flows through her fluidly. It is a versatile position which gives her a lot of freedom. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The position makes her visually appear to be vulnerable, which is incredibly seductive for her partner to even look at her. Men are visually stimulated. But she is actually in the position of power. The versatility of this position is such she can be either the seductress or the submissive, or to cross between both roles. She can adapt the pose either to tease him or empower him if she is submissive, especially if she has her wrists behind her back (demure, slave) or held overhead (confident, slutty). </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The height of her head is perfect for her giving blowjobs. Her hands are free to massage him, his thighs, balls, penis, buttocks, his anus if they’re into that. His hands can hold, smooth, caress her hair and head. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The man can lay underneath her in cowgirl or reverse cowgirl, or so she is sitting on his face perhaps massaging his penis with her hands and/or mouth. All of which are considered female empowerment positions (‘girl on top’) and feel amazing for both partners. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">From this position she can easily lean forward into a table or doggy-style position and from there even laying on her front. </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">The movement between positions during sex is a happy part of sex for a lot of couples so the ease of movement between positions is important, especially in the heat and intensity of the moment. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">However, due to the origin of this position being made famous and associated with the Gorean culture based on novels by John Norman which feature male and female sex slaves openly enjoying their sexuality in ways we are unable to achieve in our repressive modern society, a central theme which is constantly drawn upon to explore philosophically through the novels, western feminists (most of whom have never read the books) absolutely reject the Nadu position in fear it will in some way put them into slavery. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Criticism of the Gor books that “they are misogynistic juvenile teenage boy fantasy” does not recognise how the reader, allegedly a teenage male, is put through a mental and emotional process of becoming a sex-slave forced into submission against their will only to discover how liberating and empowering the role can be.

O</span></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">ther people getting in the way with unhelpful comments about how my creative process is a psychological disorder. It’s not a psychological disorder; they are. They are impacting me negatively and disrupting my productivity. When they supersede it damages my self-esteem and prevents me finishing my art. When I ignore them I win because I have confidence from being productive. My purpose of being alive is as an artist, not as a punchbag for negative peoples superiority disorders and power games. I would have been more productive had they simply left me alone to get on with it my way instead of criticising me for doing it my way. </span></p><p class="p2" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 22px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="s2"></span><br /></span></p><p class="p3" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span class="s2"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Throwing away the art which did get finished, because it had attachments to a negative time of my life when I had less self belief, is cathartic. While it does mean a potential loss of income - the one picture stored here which I did show someone else won me a £2K bursary; to put estimated value on the other pictures, most of which nobody else has ever seen. They’re all taking up a room full of space in my house which is considered to be a mental disorder of hoarding by most people who are aware of the situation. People who don’t care enough to actually ask to see the paintings it must be added. </span></span></p><p class="p2" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 22px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="s2"></span><br /></span></p><p class="p3" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span class="s2"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The process of making art is recognised as a form of therapy and as skills study, which is more valid to the artist than are the finished objects. I studied the Fine Arts at honours degree level. While the paintings do have commercial value and would boost the local economy if they were to be advertised and sold, too many people have been derogatory to me for me to have any incentive to empower those peoples nation and culture. As far as empowering myself is concerned, I need to segregate myself from any attachments from the previous art and craft materials so that other people will accept me instead of describing me as mentally unwell for hoarding. The art has multi-level attachments to my negative self-esteem. I am told the filling of my space with clutter is a psychiatric disorder by people who I do not show my paintings to because I do not trust them to see the paintings after they grind me down instead of accepting how lifestyle is fundamental to productivity and that an artists studio requires materials and resources stored there along with finished works, to create art with. </span></span></p><p class="p2" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 22px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="s2"></span><br /></span></p><p class="p3" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span class="s2"><span style="font-family: inherit;">So it is no loss to me to throw my art out, or the resources required to make more of it. Other living local artists only want the unused paints for themselves and their kids instead of respecting my art and my need for making it. Nobody cares about the finished art anyway. I used to but I’ve got the hint from social pressure. It’s abnormal. This has liberated me to see all artists for what they are, and what I used to be myself. Art is a product of mental abnormality. All works of art are distractions and delusions no matter what the financial value placed on them by delusional people. </span></span></p><p class="p2" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 22px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="s2"></span><br /></span></p><p class="p3" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span class="s2"><span style="font-family: inherit;">This decision is liberating for me. To detox from the person I was, someone who struggled to make art and struggled for it to be accepted. By destroying it all, I am more likely to be accepted as a person. I can understand that now. It’s why the mental health people describe my collected sheets of cardboard stored to paint on when I get time, as an attachment disorder to junk, rather than as the tools of a working artist. They have got through to me. </span></span></p><p class="p2" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 22px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="s2"></span><br /></span></p><p class="p3" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span class="s2"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I would be better with an empty room and no desire to paint. No paintings stored and taking up space. The rare state worker who visits my house would feel comfortable there for all of ten minutes. Which is what this is all about after all. They are the authorities and are therefore the experts on how society should be, to improve it. The problems they cause me will go away. </span></span></p><p class="p2" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 22px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="s2"></span><br /></span></p><p class="p3" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span class="s2"><span style="font-family: inherit;">By burning them all, I am liberated from all the toxic energies thrown at me by other people.

They symbolise struggle, depression, repression, toxic rejection of corporate control.

margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">are failing themselves and their objective. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Only having failed and levelled up from it to continue stronger </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">can a person recognise the wisdom of this. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Never fear failure.</span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The confusion is because not failing is a straight line </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">between starting out and attaining the objective. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;

line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The confusion is whether to zig-zag or to zag-zig, </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">to go left or go right around the blockage</span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">is still being on the path toward the objective. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">To many people </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">this confusion of clarity as to which path to take </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">looks like a dead end, no path at all. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Ask always: </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Is the objective the actual objective </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">or is there another objective I forgot about </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">which is why I made the temporarily blocked thing into the objective? </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;

line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">One thing I learned from wet ink brushwork </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Make the initial mark </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">That’s all you have to do, otherwise it is overkill </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The samurai philosophy of right action and integrity </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Brushwork also emphasises this </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">When a person has inner tranquility it reflects in their brushwork </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The philosophy of drawing a perfect circle </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">When Picasso went to art school, </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">in his interview he had no examples of his art. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">They asked; "</span><span style="font-family: inherit;">how can you show us you’re an artist worth joining our course?" </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">He drew a perfect circle before their very eyes and was instantly given a place. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Try to draw a perfect circle. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">With swiftness and confidence. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">On traditional ink paper, </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">every wobble representing lack of confidence and inner tranquility </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">is amplified by how the ink goes into the paper</span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">It’s a factor in respecting the artist through the art form. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">A literal translation of the zen stillness is captured on the paper through the ink. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">It is sacred for these reasons. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">So when we apply this understanding to the Western tradition of painting with a brush, </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">which is a lot more complicated than simplicity of oriental brushwork, </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">we can see the same applies here too, </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">in the artists techniques. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The huge thing in modern art is to persuade artists not to overwork their work. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Giacometti is a famous example with his technique for sculpting. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The only examples of his thin emaciated clay / bronze sculptures which survived </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">are the ones his brother stopped him from working on. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">All the others collapsed. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">His method was to pinch clay away from them to get them as thin as possible. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">This sort of minimalism aesthetic is ancient and global. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">It is very important as an artist to be aware of it. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Perhaps know this or some of this or a version of this already. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I am not insulting your intelligence about that. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I am attempting to teach what I know</span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">and also to focus you</span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">and also to simply discuss with you interesting stuff </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">about art culture and techniques. </span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Don’t overwork your work.</span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-stretch: normal;
