  1. You do know Plato didn't have a very good grasp of object oriented design a la CLOS. Nor did he understand that it is possible for an object to be complete and indivisible at a certain Level of Detail and yet easily viewed as divisible at other LOD's and that consistency of laws doesn't need to be mainted across LOD since they are relatively independent descriptions of reality.

    But the real flaw with his reasoning is being puzzled by encountering relativity paradoxes when reasoning about something with a relative instrument, I mean, duh! Science, for all of it's claims of objectivity, comes about through examining relative differences. Yoga, while a subjective science, comes about through examing absolutes and truth.

    As man grows in his internal awarenes of self, he does not need external observers to verify his form, his control of the form, and thereby his ability to manipulate and change it's formness to greater approximation of the archetypal form, is all that is needed.

    Careful. What they actually teach is that the physical body is a 'projection'. You are not your body, nor your mind, but you create both in your interaction with 'reality'.

    Give the west a break, they're relatively new at this. It's fun to watch them name 'discoveries' after themselves and congratulate each other on their awesomeness when they're just rediscovering things from millenia ago.

    Your body is a machine that is designed to function properly through movement, movement which drives the nourishment and cleansing of your system. Technology, taking away the necessity of movement, is actually doing way more damage by taking away a necessity from the human body and translating it into destruction of the environment just because people are lazy.

    Be a grown up. If you buy things that can be recycled instead of polluting the landscape then it is your responsibility to do so. If not, the world would be a better place without you, literally.

    The funny thing about USian's is that the only freedom they seem to be really interested in keeping is the freedom to be a self-centered, irresponsible asshole.

    Ever think a little money up front can save you millions in the future? Of course it costs less to just dump garbage in a pile. How about you just face the facts that there are consequences to just dumping garbage into piles like savages and that being a responsible citizen of earth actually requires some effort and maybe a little bit of your money to clean up your part of the destruction of the environment.

    Grow up.
