Welcome to Americ Acevido's philosophy conference, he's your remarkable
host and I'm the main dish washer and scrubber on the Spring. This should
be an exciting and fun adventure of the mind and heart. I've really grown to like Americ's enthusiasm and wide knowledge in encounters on the WELL and the Spring.
Enough blather from me, this is Dominic's thing and he'll take over from here.
Allow yourselves to introduce yourselves! And have *FUN*!

Hi. I'm no philosopher, at least not by any credentials, but perhaps in spirit. I'm looking forward to participating here at whatever level I am able. Let me start with a quote from Alfred North Whitehead. In the preface to _Modes of Thought_ he stated something like:
> Philosophical truth is to be sought in the presuppositions of language,
> not in its express statements.
I'll look it up tonight to check the exact wording.

Good to be here.
I will check in everyday -- unless I am totally swapped by non-philosophical matters.
There was a period of almost ten years in my life where I did _Philosophers Forums_ in San Francisco Bay Area coffee houses. I facilitated discussion in what my teacher (Jacob Needleman) called "The Great Ideas" -- you know, those ideas. Things like wisdom, life, death, freedom and determinism, can we know anything?, etc., etc.
I was never too interested in what other people thought as much as working OURSELVES here and now with these great ideas. So I felt that Socrates was the best model for this kind of activity. Non-academic, right here, on the street, kind of philosphy. All that is required is that we be lovers of wisdom.
(But I am putting too many words here in the Intro topic. I will post "Americ's Philosophy" into a separate topic, to free you from reading this.)

I don't need MORE philosophy in my life but I'd love a forum with which to discuss the frequently jumbled mass of ideas already floating around in there!
Today the most phiosophical statement I can think of is one by Franz Kafka stating, "The true way goes over a rope which is not stretched at any great height but just above the ground. It seems more designed to make people stumble than to be walked upon."

Hello, I am Yeshe Azevedo. Philosophy is quite intriguing, and the thoughts of a person can and will always change. Untill we find total contentment with ourselves and others. No need to preach about it. When we are in the total state of enlightment words are not needed.......

Response 15 of 185: Americ Azevedo (americ) * Fri, Nov 28, 1997 (12:05) * 5 lines
I think of talking as a way in which we
sing to one another.
When birds talk to each we call it singing.
I am sure that if some other species heard us talking,
it would sound like singing to them.

Talking is a great way to express one self. A question to ponder.
Do we need that form of communication when we are in the bright?
Is that communication which then when in the bright needed for
are own benefit or for others own benefit?

benefitting ourself?

This philosophy conference is by no means an academic philosphy conference.
It is a place to develop and explore your own philosophy.
Sometimes it is fun to refer to some of the well known writers,
but really YOU are the best person to get in touch with wisdom.
Wisdom is only yours if you work on it yourself.

I believe
in the Principle of Evolution,
the Maker of heaven and earth
and the evolving man.
I believe
the World Teachers
built us roads to tread,
and withdrew to help
from other planes.
I believe
they beckon us
to scale the heights,
mental and supramental,
and meet them
on the Mount of Transfiguration.
I believe
we shall all evolve
and be New Beings
who need no Death
to take off on wings of Joy
to worlds without end.

Ahh.... 6pm, sitting solitary in my gloriously quiet classroom. The last few days have been rather difficult. The children spent 2 weeks at "home" in unsavory and unstructured environments.
We've had issues.
Today was smooth. And we all enjoyed the benefits of a low stress day. I'm still at work, for a meeting at 7pm tonight, but I'm really not minding the long day. I've been incommunicato simply because, as you surely have guessed, when the classroom is in turmoil... no one rests.
I've got my VERY hot mug of Echinecea (sp?) tea and now, my keyboard.

Hi everyone, I am Emma Hsu. This is my first time beening in philosophy conference. I don't know much about philosophy, but I think everyone have their own philosophy, no matter you are male or female. Philosophy just like your personality. What kind of philosophy you believe, what kind of person you are.

I took an online course in postmodernist philosophy and now I'm hooked. But I live in Waco, Texas,and look what happened to our last original thinker! So I drive to Dallas to the Philospher's Forum twice a month--from Gadamer, Heiddegger to Ken Wilber and Jimmy Lathrop. I was surprised that there is nothing like this in Austin, except for U.T. students. I'm glad to find out about this website, though.

How the hell should I know? It's exactly like the other words I read on the listservs of philosophy departments; nobody actually uses words like this in Waco.
My adventures online as Captain of the Transcendental Millenial Falcon vs the Ravenscraft of SouthPaws as well as Ken Wilber's PureLandingGyre have left me wounded, but undaunted, in my neverending Quest to Tai up their Chi. I was in Tokyo last week and this dogon seated next to me in the Ginza leaned over and said, "I know who you are--Holy Ratdog of God! How did you escape from the Compound when They did away with your first husband?" It was one of them. Another claims to live on Cesar Chavez, so I am
as ever, en garde. Nevertheless, everyone on this list had better get the complete library, even Heidegger for Idiots, because I am being studied for the Internet addiction as well as others which are hohum merely genetic.
