Hermann Hesse


Hermann Hesse, (born July 2, 1877, Calw, Ger.—died Aug. 9, 1962, Montagnola, Switz.), German novelist, poet, and winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1946, whose main theme deals with man’s breaking out of the established modes of civilization to find his essential spirit.


Der Steppenwolf (1927; Steppenwolf) describes the conflict between bourgeois acceptance and spiritual self-realization in a middle-aged man.

ARTICLE from the Encyclopædia Britannica

Albert Einstein, (born March 14, 1879, Ulm, Württemberg, Ger.—died April 18, 1955, Princeton, N.J., U.S.), German-born physicist who developed the special and general theories of relativity and won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1921 for his explanation of the photoelectric effect. Einstein is generally considered the most influential physicist of the 20th century.


In 1902 Einstein reached perhaps the lowest point in his life. He could not marry Maric and support a family without a job, and his father’s business went bankrupt. Desperate and unemployed, Einstein took lowly jobs tutoring children, but he was fired from even these jobs.

The turning point came later that year, when the father of his lifelong friend Marcel Grossman was able to recommend him for a position as a clerk in the Swiss patent office in Bern. About then, Einstein’s father became seriously ill and, just before he died, gave his blessing for his son to marry Maric. For years, Einstein would experience enormous sadness remembering that his father had died thinking him a failure.

With a small but steady income for the first time, Einstein felt confident enough to marry Maric, which he did on Jan. 6, 1903. Their children, Hans Albert and Eduard, were born in Bern in 1904 and 1910, respectively. In hindsight, Einstein’s job at the patent office was a blessing. He would quickly finish analyzing patent applications, leaving him time to daydream about the vision that had obsessed him since he was 16: What would happen if you raced alongside a light beam? While at the polytechnic school he had studied Maxwell’s equations, which describe the nature of light, and discovered a fact unknown to James Clerk Maxwell himself—namely, that the speed of light remains the same no matter how fast one moves. This violates Newton’s laws of motion, however, because there is no absolute velocity in Isaac Newton’s theory. This insight led Einstein to formulate the principle of relativity: “the speed of light is a constant in any inertial frame (constantly moving frame).”

During 1905, often called Einstein’s “miracle year,” he published four papers in the Annalen der Physik, each of which would alter the course of modern physics

Steppenwolf (novel)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Steppenwolf (orig. German Der Steppenwolf) is the tenth novel by German-Swiss author Hermann Hesse. Originally published in Germany in 1927, it was first translated into English in 1929. Combining autobiographical and psychoanalytic elements, the novel was named after the lonesome wolf of the steppes. The story in large part reflects a profound crisis in Hesse's spiritual world in the 1920s while memorably portraying the protagonist's split between his humanity and his wolf-like aggression and homelessness. The novel became an international success, although Hesse would later assert that the book was largely misunderstood.


Plot summary

The book is presented as a manuscript by its protagonist, a middle-aged man named Harry Haller, who leaves it to a chance acquaintance, the nephew of his landlady. The acquaintance adds a short preface of his own and then has the manuscript published. The title of this "real" book-in-the-book is Harry Haller's Records (For Madmen Only).

As it begins, the hero is beset by reflections on his being ill-suited for the world of everyday, regular people, specifically for frivolous bourgeois society. In his aimless wanderings about the city he encounters a person carrying an advertisement for a magic theatre who gives him a small book, Treatise on the Steppenwolf. This treatise, cited in full in the novel's text as Harry reads it, addresses Harry by name and strikes him as describing himself uncannily. It is a discourse of a man who believes himself to be of two natures: one high, the spiritual nature of man; while the other is low, animalistic, a "wolf of the steppes". This man is entangled in an irresolvable struggle, never content with either nature because he cannot see beyond this self-made concept. The pamphlet gives an explanation of the multifaceted and indefinable nature of every man's soul, which Harry is either unable or unwilling to recognize. It also discusses his suicidal intentions, describing him as one of the "suicides"; people who, deep down, knew they would take their own life one day. But to counter that, it hails his potential to be great, to be one of the "Immortals".

The next day Harry meets a former academic friend with whom he had often discussed Oriental mythology, and who invites Harry to his home. While there, Harry is disgusted by the nationalistic mentality of his friend, who inadvertently criticizes a column Harry wrote. In turn, Harry offends the man and his wife by criticizing the wife's picture of Goethe, which Harry feels is too thickly sentimental and insulting to Goethe's true brilliance. This episode confirms to Harry that he is, and will always be, a stranger to his society.

Trying to postpone returning home (where he has planned suicide), Harry walks aimlessly around the town for most of the night, finally stopping to rest at a dance hall where he happens on a young woman, Hermine, who quickly recognizes his desperation. They talk at length; Hermine alternately mocks Harry's self-pity and indulges him in his explanations regarding his view of life, to his astonished relief. Hermine promises a second meeting, and provides Harry with a reason to live (or at least a substantial excuse to continue living) that he eagerly embraces.

During the next few weeks, Hermine introduces Harry to the indulgences of what he calls the "bourgeois". She teaches Harry to dance, introduces him to casual drug use, finds him a lover (Maria), and, more importantly, forces him to accept these as legitimate and worthy aspects of a full life.

I wonder if I will ever get the chance to talk with her, to see if my imagination matches reality? Not to mention it is almost embarassing to be a homeless guy with a crush on a pretty woman I see on TV. What am I saying, 'almost'?





http://brain.web-us.com/lucid/luciddreamingFAQ.htm

1.2. In what stage of sleep does Lucid Dreaming occur?
Lucid Dreaming usually takes place in REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep. There are five stages of sleep. Stage 1 being the one you first enter, then followed by stage 2, 3 and 4. As you descend into deeper sleep your brain frequency slows down. In stage 4 can it be slower than one cycle per second (delta sleep). After some time spent in stage 4, about 25 minutes, you return to stage 3 and 2, then straight into REM sleep. About 90 minutes has passed now since you started sleeping. 5-10 minutes is spent in this stage before you go all the way down to stage 4 again (also called non-REM sleep). When approximately 90 minutes have again passed, another REM-period start. This time the REM sleep lasts longer. And as time progresses less time in non-REM sleep is needed and more time is spent in REM sleep. After 4-5 hours you don't go lower than stage 2. Vivid dreaming takes place in REM sleep, so the more you sleep, the more time is spent in REM and the more likely it is that you may have a Lucid Dream.

[I don't know yet if my dream controls have been working as they try to manipulate me. But it looks like one sure way of eliminating this problem is to set an alarm clock to go off every hour or so, assuming that REM sleep is when they get in my head. I wonder though, if they have been communicating with me lately about Lily......I am not resistant to such activity, as I wouldn't even think of that as manipulation. How can you be manipulated into doing something you already want to do? I remember a couple days ago in a dream, it felt like I was being asked if she was a "passing fancy." It sounds crazy to even write about this, but there are too many imaginary-type-but not-imaginary indications to make me believe this is all real. It's crazy to even think she and I could get together, but yet I still want to say here in this imagined-but-not-imaginary-world that I think she is the most attractive woman in the world.]

The American Presidency Project

Ronald Reagan

XL President of the United States: 1981 - 1989

Radio Address to the Nation on Armed Forces Day and Defense Spending

May 18, 1985

My fellow Americans:

Not too long ago one of our Ambassadors visited an American armored cavalry regiment stationed on the NATO line in Germany. As he returned to his helicopter, he was followed by a young 19-year-old trooper. The trooper asked him if he could get a message to the President. Well, the Ambassador said that sometimes getting messages to the President was part of his job. And the young trooper then said, "Will you tell him we're proud to be here, and we ain't scared of nothin."

Well, not long ago the Ambassador was in Washington and told me the sequel to that incident. I'd repeated a story in a talk that was carried on our Voice of America radio program, and there in that base in Germany the young trooper heard the broadcast and knew that I'd received his message. His commanding officer said that he ran down the company street yelling: "The system works! The system works!"

Well, the system does work, but not just because Ambassadors can get messages from a 19-year-old trooper to the President. Our system—this way of life we call democracy and freedom—really works because of the dedicated Americans like that GI in Germany

MAN: You expect to eat for free or something? You got to listen to Goody Two-shoes.

EDITH: Now, as I'm sure somebody out there has said, it's time to pay for the soup.

MAN: Not that she's a bad-looking broad, but if she really wanted to help out a fella in need

KIRK: Shut up. Shut up. I want to hear what she has to say.

SPOCK: Yes, of course, Captain.

EDITH: Now, let's start by getting one thing straight. I'm not a do-gooder. If you're a bum, if you can't break off of the booze or whatever it is that makes you a bad risk, then get out. Now I don't pretend to tell you how to find happiness and love when every day is just a struggle to survive, but I do insist that you do survive because the days and the years ahead are worth living for. One day soon man is going to be able to harness incredible energies, maybe even the atom. Energies that could ultimately hurl us to other worlds in some sort of spaceship. And the men that reach out into space will be able to find ways to feed the hungry millions of the world and to cure their diseases. They will be able to find a way to give each man hope and a common future, and those are the days worth living for. Our deserts will bloom. (She continues under the dialogue.)

KIRK: Development of atomic power is years away, and space flight years after that.

SPOCK: Speculation. Gifted insight.

KIRK: I find her most uncommon, Mister Spock.

EDITH: Prepare for tomorrow. Get ready. Don't give up.

(Later, when the bowls are being handed in, Edith calls after Kirk.)

EDITH: Mister Kirk. You are uncommon workmen. That basement looks like it's been scrubbed and polished.

KIRK: Then we can report back for other work?

EDITH: Yes. Seven o'clock in the morning. Do you have a flop for the night?

KIRK: A what?

King s Message

Better Days Lie Ahead

' London (AAP)

THE Empire showed, the way to the world when the bombs were falling, and it can, by its discipline, endurance, and patience, show the way into peace, said King. George in his Christmas message.

"Better days lie ahead," the King said. "Our task is to mobilise the Christmas spirit and apply its power and heal- ing to our daily life."

The King spoke alone in his study at Sandringham, where a gold microphone was installed. The Queen, the Princesses, and Queen Mary listened to his words through a loud speaker.

Burdens

"The year that is passing has not been easy," said His Majesty. "Statesmen and poli- ticians have been burdened with the resettlement of a world shattered by global war.

"All of us, instead of getting some well-earned relaxation after years of intensive work, have had to put our shoulders to the wheels of industry and agriculture with redoubled vigour. Men and women re- turned from wartime service to conditions that were only slowly improving from wartime austerity, while the housewife, perhaps the most gallant figure of all, still bears many of the extra burdens she bore so bravely throughout the war.

Courage

"With all these trials to be faced, I am indeed proud that you are able to maintain that energy, cheerfulness, and cour- age this difficult times demands.

"We cannot expect the world, so grievously wounded, to re- cover quickly, but its conva- lescence can certainly be hastened by our continued en- durance and good will. In His own good time God will lead our feet into ways of peace. *

"Guns have ceased to kill, r bombs have ceased to fall, and though the clouds are still dark there is light behind them.

Better days lie ahead.

"Let us not concentrate too much on the difficulties of the present-they will pass-nor on memories of unhappy experi- ences which all of us had. Let us rather think of the possi- bilities the future may hold

Reconstruction

"Reconstruction so urgently needed everywhere is quite as much spiritual as material. "It is necessary not merely to feed hungry people and to re- build ruined cities, but also to restore civilisation's very soul. "We cannot all think alike amid the dilemmas of a chang- ing world, nor is it right that we should. Opinion striking against opinion ignites a spark that can kindle the lamp of truth.

Road To Truth

"If our feet are on the road of common charity that leads to ultimate truth, our differences will never destroy our under- lying unity and our^ disputes will not leave us either embit- tered or unkind. If the coming yeal' has its uncertainties, it has its promises. By God's help and by our own endeavours let us make these brighter promises come true.

"My dear people, I wish you well. May the New Year be full of blessing for each one of you. Welcome it when it comes with hope, courage, and 'greet the Unseen with a cheer.' "

At the midnight in the silence of the sleep-time,

When you set your fancies free,

Will they pass to where--by death, fools think, imprisoned--

Low he lies who once so loved you whom you loved so,

--Pity me?

Oh to love so, be so loved, yet so mistaken!

What had I on earth to do

With the slothful, with the mawkish, the unmanly?

Like the aimless, helpless, hopeless, did I drivel

--Being--who?

One who never turned his back but marched breast forward,

Never doubted clouds would break,

Never dreamed, tho' right were worsted, wrong would triumph,

Held we fall to rise, are baffled to fight better,

Sleep to wake.

No, at noonday in the bustle of man's work-time

Greet the unseen with a cheer!

Bid him forward, breast and back as either should be,

"Strive and thrive!" cry "Speed,--fight on, fare ever

There as here!"

The funny part is I saw a woman in a cheerleaders outfit in a dream while sleeping a few hours ago. She was asking me if I was a nice guy. I woke up thinking since then that was a future-memory of the conventional past. The past conventional of time but the future for me personally. There must be some reason I am telling you all this.

He's got that robot standing there, just waiting for orders to destroy us.
This spaceman, or whatever he is. We automatically assume he's a menace.
- Maybe he isn't at all. - Then what's he hiding for?
- Why doesn't he come out in the open? - Like Heatter says, "What's he up to?"
- Maybe he's afraid. - He's afraid!
Well, after all, he was shot the minute he landed here.
- I was just wondering what I would do. - Perhaps before deciding on any action,
you'd want to know more about the people, to orient yourself in a strange environment.
- There's nothing strange about Washington. - A person from another planet may disagree.
If you want my opinion, he comes from right here on Earth.
And you know where I mean.
