Krimel,
In the biography of William James I just read a wonderful chapter on
Charles Pierce. He wrote, "Reality is that which finally and
universally will be believed.", and "Thought is a thread of melody
running through the succession of our sensations.", and "The essence
of belief is the establishment of habit.". What wonderful thoughts
were percolating in Cambridge during those years.
This biography is very well written and very exciting to read as it
seems to be presenting the evolution of WJ's mind, and includes a
wonderful cast of characters. I am reading three books, on Buddhism,
on the Tao, and this biography, and am terribly depressed that I have
no memory for detail, but want only to add slices to some unknown pie
in the sky. I ordered the book Matt recommended, and a book
containing an interview between Krishnamurti and David Bohm. I want
it all and I want it now, and am distressed that I seem like a hungry
ghost of knowledge.
I am loving the Quantum course for non-scientists, but still think it
like a wonderful poem or painting.
Sorry to bother you but I have nothing worthy of posting to the MD,
and a need to write something...
