#Shravana #Nakshatra #Constellation is associated with Goddess Parvati, and its ruling planet is Vishnu. It’s considered the #birth star of Goddess #Saraswati, who’s known for education and knowledge. People born under this constellation tend to have a strong inclination towards #learning and gaining knowledge from various sources.

The symbol of the ear in Shravana Nakshatra represents the ability of those born under it to acquire wisdom through listening. It also signifies the importance of #listening to one’s inner voice and using it as a guide for personal growth. The three footprints in the symbol represent the three states of the mind: wakefulness, dream sleep, and deep sleep, all of which symbolize consciousness. These footprints also represent the journey of understanding the material world, the Universe, and the realms beyond Shravana Nakshatra.

A quotation from Gould, Stephen Jay

Elitism is repulsive when based upon external and artificial limitations like race, gender, or social class. Repulsive and utterly false — for that spark of genius is randomly distributed across all cruel barriers of our social prejudice. We therefore must grant access — and encouragement — to everyone; and must be increasingly vigilant, and tirelessly attentive, in providing such opportunities to all children. We will have no justice until this kind of equality can be attained. But if only a small minority respond, and these are our best and brightest of all races, classes, and genders, shall we deny them the pinnacle of their soul’s striving because all their colleagues prefer passivity and flashing lights? Let them lift their eyes to hills of books, and at least a few museums that display the full magic of nature’s variety. What is wrong with this truly democratic form of elitism?

Stephen Jay Gould (1941-2002) American paleontologist, geologist, biologist
Dinosaur in a Haystack: Reflections in Natural History, Part 5, ch. 18 “Cabinet Museums: Alive, Alive, O!” (1995)

"Greatness," Letters and Social Aims (1876) - Emerson, Ralph Waldo | WIST Quotations

Shall I tell you the secret of the true scholar? It is this: Every man I meet is my master in some point, and in that I learn of him. This appears to be the origin of the much more common paraphrase (not found in Emerson's works, but popularized by…

Swedes you are lovely

The way: vägen
The wall: väggen
The wave: vågen
The scales: vågen
The vagueness: vagen
The cart: vagnen

Jag surfar på en våg och sätta mina vaga tankar på vågen, tror att jag är på väg, men krossas mot väggen med min vagnen.

Learning without thought ends in a blur. Thought without learning will soon totter.   [學而不思則罔、思而不學則殆。] Many (but not all) translators suggest that learning/study here is not general academics, but examining and maintaining the ancient traditions....
