Solfeggio Frequencies, God, and our Evolutionary Perspective of Reality

I am intrigued by the imagination of the human mind, for some years now I have listened to Binaural Beats; when you find it difficult sleep, you are willing to try anything to get some, and I was told that Binaural Beats might help. Last night a friend sent me a visual version of binaural beats called Solfeggio Frequencies, where you looked at the spinning pattern and hummed at the same tone as the one being created. I found this quite enlightening at the time, the tones created by me and the video formed a resonating tone which I could feel through my body.


Finding this rather intriguing, I looked on YouTube to see the other tones from this Solfeggio Frequency, I found there are six, and supposedly the tones are a form of chanting from ancient times that has somehow been lost. But this is not the reason I am writing, it is just how I found what I want to write about, and my perception of it.

Whilst looking at the Solfeggio frequencies I noticed another video which said test yourself, well I like things like that, if something says test yourself, I’m a sucker for trying it. Unfortunately it was not a test, it was another self promoting video talking about the wonder of creation, and the way things are made up in certain symmetry, like the golden ratio and circles, dimensions, and then they spoilt it by saying it was god. Though this god seemed more of a spiritual god than the omnipresent, ubiquitous, omnipotent god religions talk about.

Now this god, to their credit did not seem like the god discussed in the bible even though they did reference the bible. But this is not what I found amazing, what I think is incredibly strange is the way, people need to put a humanistic type person, a figurehead, as the one who created everything. Why? Why do some people feel this urge to do that? I don’t need to do that, I can think of all the sequences they accredited to god to other phenomena.

It seems that the beauty, the complexity and also simplicity of existence, has to be done by an almighty power. It’s not the case, it is the simple fact as I have said many times before, though not recently, and it is all to do with the perspective of the observer. It has to do with the concept and idea that everything and I mean everything, finds the best and easiest way to exist in its environment, and will always fall to the lowest and easiest common denominator. The patterns and golden ratios, triangles, circles, and every other form of simplicity, are not gods work, they are the work of the evolutionary perspective of the observer. You yourself witness the world, the galaxy, the Universe, plants, animals, stars, clouds in the sky, uniquely. You perceive the patterns, and because of self awareness, you then interpret them in a way unique to humans.

The underlying patterns are the building blocks of our reality, and how we perceive our existence in that reality. The strange thing is that this does not mean that the same rules will apply for everything in existence. It just applies to us in our reality of existence. You see what you want to see, and because of this you are unique.

Maybe it is that I am slightly different in my outlook to many others, to make it seem so obvious to me, and that everything is just a tiny dot, a sprinkling of nearly nothing in comparison to the whole. And even if the perceived entity, some like to call god in whatever format they imagine him, does exist, he will be only a tiny insignificant part of the whole as we are. As Einstein said it is all relative, everything is relative to where and how you observe and perceive.

Everything is a tiny part of something else. Protons, Neutrons, and Electrons are a tiny part of an Atom. One Atom is a tiny part of a cell. One cell is a tiny part of a human. One human is a tiny part of the Earth. The Earth is a tiny part of the Solar System. The Solar System is a tiny part of the Galaxy. The Galaxy is a tiny part of the Universe, and so on and so forth. Just because our Perspective Parameters cannot see or imagine further than this, does make it likely that the Universe is the limit or for that matter quarks and quantum sub-atomic particles are the limits.

Try to think of it this way, we know how our eyes work, they see light, and through binocular vision and colour we can create a three dimensional world. Yet we also know that many animals do not see the world like this, bats are blind visually and can only see through sound and sonic vibration. It’s still there form of sight though.

The problem with humans is the fact we are self aware, and at present believe we are the only entities in existence that are self aware. We can only create a Universe around this one unique perspective and it ignores every other perspective, or dilutes its importance. We have to realise and see that most of everything is beyond our perspective, beyond our comprehension and likely to be beyond understanding, and incredibly overwhelming. It is hard to imagine this when you are human, but it is true, it is a fact, we are just a slice of a quark in the vastness of the Infinitiverse.

Remember as we learn more our Perspective Parameters grow, and they will grow past god, and past what we perceive as the Universe, and what we perceive as life, and reality and existence. As our perspective increases, things that were hard to comprehend will eventually become simple, and we will understand more. This is constantly happening and will happen forever.

Stop Demise

It makes no sense,

To recompense,

When one so dense,

Sits on the fence.



How will they see,

What life can be,

How to be free,

To disagree.



When mind is closed,

And not supposed,

And overdosed,

Content proposed.



If you feel jaded,

And nearly faded,

Bored life hated,

Under fulfilled overstated.



Notice this and realise,

Motivate and recognise,

Try hard to revitalise,

Stop decline, stop demise.

Brilliant Documentary about the Grand Prix ‘Killer Years’ and how it is Similar to Life in General, for Humanity.

There was a brilliant documentary on last night about the Grand Prix years between the late 50’s and early 70’s; they called it the ‘Killer Years’. Drivers like Jackie Stewart, Emerson Fittipaldi, Jackie Ickx, many other famous drivers of the time discussed how dangerous their sport was back then. Jackie said you had a one in three chance of surviving the season, which is not very good odds, especially for a sport. The desire to be the best and to win at all costs caused many of the greatest drivers to risk their lives and some to die agonising deaths most often by fire. Yet nobody was willing to change it; it wasn’t until the mid 70’s that things started to improve and if you think about it. It wasn’t really until after Senna died that things became as safe as a sport like that can be.


In a way, you can take what happened in Formula One back then, and transpose it onto today’s society, and the world works today. They wanted to see the exciting fast cars go around the track; they wanted to see close races and drivers giving their all. But they also liked the crashes when they happened, they liked the thrill and the danger involved, they wanted to be entertained. The thing is when do you draw the line, and say too many people are dying horrifically; too many people are getting injured unnecessarily. Of course back then when drivers said this, the track owners, did not want to change, they wanted it kept as it was, because it was going to cost them a fortune to add all the safety features the drivers wanted. The race car owners they just wanted fast cars, and to them initially the drivers were kind of expendable, they could always get another replacement. And even the drivers were ambivalent to begin with, they did not want to jeopardise their careers, by speaking out about the lack of safety.

It took many deaths, and horrible injuries before it changed. Terrible isn’t it. No different to society today, we never change until the death count reaches a critical level. In 1959 in one race 15 people died, not just drivers but some spectators as well. That didn’t cause a change, when Jim Clark one of the greatest drivers ever died that did not change anything. Eventually when one poor driver Roger Williamson, in his second race, crashed and was burning to death live on camera; with another driver David Purley, frantically trying in vain to save his fellow drivers life, did things eventually start to change. It was terrible to watch that in a documentary, I can’t imagine what it must have been like to witness it live. Yet all the drivers continued to race apart from Purley, who received the George Medal for his bravery and valour.

Unfortunately that is the world we live in today, life is meaningless to some and because of this lack of meaning, and they put many others into harm’s way. They may want to change, but the system does not allow change, until finally something incredibly awful and drastic or even catastrophic happens, and then they are forced into changing.

When are we going to learn, maybe we never will and one day the greatest of all catastrophes will destroy us and we won’t be around anymore to repair the damage caused.

The Big Questions, the Census and Creationist based Religion

They have a programme on this morning called the Big Questions; it must have been on after the Grand Prix. I was filling in the census and they were going to talk about it, so I stopped and listened. Before that they were discussing whether creationism should be taught in schools, I find it absolutely incredible that this is being discussed. How deluded a world we live in that they can waste TV time on this subject, fine if they want to teach it in a religious class OK. But to allow it to be taught as fact, and a plausible alternative to evolution in biology is ridiculous and insulting.


What a crazy world we live in, where these idiots can have such an influence on society as to literally try and force our species back to the dark ages. And what is worse they want to corrupt the young and force them into believing this bullshit. They want them to be controlled and forced into a subservient attitude, and it needs to be stopped now.

I find it amazing that people can believe such nonsense, it flabbergasts me to think that there are people who actually believe there is an all powerful man in the sky, who answers their prays and made the Earth in seven days, around 4,000 years ago. It is beyond comprehension that they can accept animals evolve, yet we have not. How do you stop people from being so ignorant of evidence? How do you stop people being so manipulated? How do you get them to wake up and realise what they believe is rubbish, and based on primitive early human intelligence, and a lack of understanding of the surroundings they existed in? How do you get them to understand the harm they are causing indirectly around the world?

How can anyone actually think that a book that encourages slavery, debauchery against gentiles, murder of gentiles? As well as demanding absolute devotion to an imaginary, hateful, selfish, super being, on pain of torture or death, and encourages persecution, and idolisation of one super being. How can anyone believe this rubbish? Are we that stupid in this day and age? Have we not learned anything from the years of horrific bloodshed at the hands of these religions?

You know what is really galling about it all; because we live in a free society, or an imaginary free society, we have to listen to these idiots. Yet most of them, if they had their own way, would not allow such freedoms. If they were in control of the country, they would ban the right to speak freely. Who does that remind you of? One nasty bloke from the 30’s springs to mind. You think if these creationists got their way and were in power they would be open to all other possibilities? Do you think the extreme Muslims would allow it also? What about the Orthodox Jews? I doubt any of them would be so quick to allow freedom of speech.

Anyway getting away from my reason to write again, which I seem to do quite often, you think of one thing then get side tracked. The census, it was pretty harmless, and it may seem a massive document to fill in but it isn’t if you live by yourself.

The Big Question programme was discussing the question about whether you should tick you are religious if you are not, if you don’t go to church. Well that’s up to the individual and they should leave it at that, to be honest I hope most people say they are not religious, as I believe most people aren’t these days, especially in Britain. But it is up to them, with my negative thoughts on religion, I hope eventually in years to come the question will be; are you open to believing in falsehoods and deluded flights of fancy, or are you an evidence based realist. Which is what I feel is the difference between religion and non-religion.

How much longer we will have to put up with hearing the crazies talking I don’t know, the weird thing is there are quite a few rational people who are religious but they are never heard, it is only the deluded extremists that seem to get their voice across. If someone wants to believe the world is 4,000 years old and that evolution is wrong that is their concern, but they should not force this opinion on everyone else. I am sure if someone came forward and said I believe that clouds are candy floss, and the moon is made of cheese, and that thunder and lightning are made when God is angry, that is their choice, but we don’t teach it in science class do we.

Stop the Bullshit and tell us the Truth

Let’s be honest it is now very clear the main reason why the AGW climate change issue has been brought before us. It is a poor attempt to get the world to realise the resources we use at present; oil, coal, natural gas, etc, etc, are not going to last forever. To also tell us, when we use all these types of energy sources, it causes environmental damage and restricts our development as a species.


Now if someone said that to me I would go really, well I see why we need to find renewable energy sources, I see the reasons why they are building wind farms, and trying to find hydrothermal power.

Instead they try to deceive us, believing we are not intelligent enough to understand such concepts, but we are, and since we are clever little souls, we humans. We have figured out by ourselves and without the help of the media, or the government, or spin doctors, or the plethora of other QUANGOs that exist to try to confuse and bamboozle you into believing exactly what they say, for their interests, that Climate Change due to CO2 is rubbish.

The people who say they are green, and want to see a reduction in greenhouse gases don’t really, they are not in the slightest bit interested in that goal, they want to get what they want, and they are willing to go down any route to achieve it.

The latest green dumbass is Tim Flannery, who has said this on a talk radio, “Just let me finish and say this. If the world as a whole cut all emissions tomorrow the average temperature of the planet is not going to drop in several hundred years, perhaps as much as a thousand years because the system is overburdened with CO2 that has to be absorbed and that only happens slowly.”

So he is saying that if we cut all emissions, (what does that mean, if every human was killed since we pump out quite a bit of the old CO2), it won’t make a jot of difference for up to a thousand years.

Now you can read this many ways, the first way is to say that all the carbon taxing and the stupidity of wasting billions of dollars is pointless, and should be spent of finding better answers than reducing CO2. Why can’t we put all this money into finding nuclear fusion, I wouldn’t mind if the money you are stealing from me was used in the pursuit of that goal.

Another way you can read it is this way, that essentially CO2 has no baring what so ever on the climate. Again it means spending all this money on useless, ineffective, solutions is a total waste of time, money and effort, especially when we should be addressing bigger issues, like finding the answer to nuclear fusion.

Come on governments, climate scientists, and the rest of you pretendy do gooders, tell us the truth, no more bullshit, because the well being of billions of people is in your hands. Stop treating us like mushrooms, we can handle the truth.

Come out with it and say hey ok, we made a mistake it’s not CO2, it’s the fact we are not going to have any fossil fuel resources left soon, and we need to change from a fossil fuelled world to a renewable fuelled world, quickly. We need to tax you to pay for the changeover; it’s not going to be easy or simple. It’s going to take a large amount of effort, but if we all work together and focus on the issue at hand we will succeed because we are humans.

We can figure out nuclear fusion, we can find hydrothermal power, and use the tides, create solar energy farms in the deserts of the world. We can do this, just stop the bullshit and tell us the truth, now before it’s too late, because if you continued to lie and deceive us, then another extremist idiot may come along, and we will descend into something far worse. It has happened before and will happen again.

TROM - The Reality of Me

Quite by accident I found TROM, it is a massive documentary divided into many smaller sections dealing with everything involving the human condition. In some ways it is like a very simplistic and basic reference book, a series of bullet point cards. It talks about the same ideas and concepts as seen in Zeitgeist Moving Forward, but if Zeitgeist is the glossy book for sale, TROM is the reference information behind the book. It is full of a wealth of facts and answers to why we humans are the way we are, and what we can do to change.


I’ll be honest some of the things they discuss I would be sceptical about, and I think they can be seen as too radical, but many of the ideas and concepts make good sense.

The doc is worth watching if you like Zeitgeist, but be warned it is very basic and obviously done on a very cheap budget. There is even quite a few spelling mistakes which made me wonder but then they do recognise that fact on the website and apologise, it seems like this is draft version one.

The basic premise revolves around the adage “money is the root of all evil”, which I believe is a misquotation but apt here. And that we need to rid ourselves of the monetary system to survive.

The parts I found particularly interesting was the section on education and the corruption of children, as well as best practices to help make children less subservient to the power of consumerism and more empowered to think for themselves. Jacque Fresco one of the main speakers and head of the Venus Project makes some interesting comments about raising his own children. He said to get his son to read, he would read to a point of the book which was exciting and interesting then stop. His son would plead to hear some more, but Jacque said no and left the book next to the child. His son instinctively picked up the book and read it himself eager know what happened next. He makes the point that the present school system is pointless and I agree with him there. I never learned anything of real value at school, it was boring and dull; strangely it wasn’t until I was nearing my 30’s that I started to enjoy the things I should have enjoyed at school.

Jacque does have some more radical ideas which I am not as sure about, his ideas about families and having children I found extreme, since the issues of overpopulation stem mainly from poverty and religion, and not an inherent desire to have children and a family. If we had no poverty in the third world countries or even the third world parts of China, and less disease and infant mortality. As well as a better understanding of contraception in those areas, then populations would not continue to rise. To say the concept of love will change and become less than what I would call love is foolish. Because many people don’t find happiness and feel obliged or forced into staying married having kids, is generally down to other factors like work, debt, lack of money, lack of freedom. Not all people want this sort of loving relationship, but many do, and to say it will be phased out is a little naive.

He dispels the notion of freedom also, saying you can never be free, but that depends on your definition of freedom. Of course you will never be literally free because that would send us back to the primitive times, but you can feel a sense of freedom in your heart and soul.

The ideas are similar to ones I have expressed myself many times, it has to start with children, bring children up without the desire to hurt or control, and not to think of things in terms of possession. Let them share and think for themselves and not covet or want. Make learning exciting the interesting and use the inherent desire to learn, to teach them correctly. How this will happen when so many children are mentally abused before they are even ten or eleven, I don’t know. There was two very disturbing parts of the documentary, around the mental abuses of some religions. It was disgraceful that this sort of thing is allowed to happen in this day and age. Then again so many dreadful things happen why should it surprise me, but it did.

On a positive note the 3D printers were an exciting invention, their potential is obviously massive, but how will that help or benefit the world or will the power corporations find a way to control them. Nanotechnology was also fascinating, as well as the many other scientific advances.

Some of Jacque Fresco’s comments later on about arts, sports, and the like and the fact they are distractions make him sound like he trying to create a world like the one in Equilibrium, he says people will grow beyond them comparing gladiator games and burning Christians at the stake as the same as football and other tribalist sports. Maybe he is right about the more violent ones but I doubt we will become bored of art or music, or anything cultural like that. We are not all going to want to be involved in scientific pursuits so in my mind he is totally wrong there.

I haven’t seen the last section called dilemma but I can imagine what it is about, how do we change the system and kill the evil corporate, profit driven, money desiring, beast. It’s a bit like any good monster movie, it seems impossible, but some way they find the answer. Now we need to.

Elizabeth Taylor - The Last of the Hollywood Legends dies

When I was a child I was watching a film with Elizabeth Taylor in it, my mother told me she was in her day, classed as the most beautiful woman in the world, and at the time I could see why. She was incredibly beautiful and lived an exciting, privileged, yet tragic life. Personally, when I was older I was firstly a Marilyn Monroe fan, as every teenage boy should be, then after watching Breakfast at Tiffany’s, I fell in love with Audrey Hepburn, who to this day is in my opinion the most beautiful actress ever. I also thought Grace Kelly was pretty hot and thought Cary Grant was a lucky bastard for having an affair with her for so many years, when he was at least twice her age.


I know I am going off subject here, but out of all the beautiful women that have graced our screens, those four from the 40’s, 50’s, and 60’s stand out. If I was to rank them I would put Audrey Hepburn first, Grace Kelly second, Marilyn Monroe third, fourth would probably be Raquel Welsh, she was gorgeous in the 70’s. Since I have started this fifth would be Catherine Zeta Jones, and Elizabeth Taylor would probably be sixth, Charlize Theron would be seventh, Kate Beckinsale eighth, Keira Knightly ninth and Ziyi Zhang tenth.

Umm I feel I bit shallow now, I was going to talk about what a great beautiful actress Taylor was, and how she was so lucky to collect Oscars when her brilliant actor husband Richard Burton did not. It is sad that she has died relatively young for this day and age, considering she is rich, but she had a good life and we will always remember her films.

As far as the others are concerned, Audrey is streets ahead of the rest, she is just one amazing, sexy, stunningly beautiful woman, and when she sings Moon River in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, she’s just perfect.

Mind now I think about it, if I was to compile a list of sexiest women instead of beautiful it might be slightly different, but who knows.
