"Art as Experience." We experience art suddenly, through our eyes ("wow, oh, hmmm"); and slowly, with our mind (words, thoughts and comparisons). It's a unique experience for each of us and a unique experience from one moment to the next; otherwise, our eyes are closed....
21 Sep Who Am I?
I am who I am. I am various emotional selves in various roles in the play of life. Depending on perspective, I am in my play or other people's plays. I am. I cannot be described otherwise as I am ever-changing. Any description is empty, as by the end of a self-description I am not the person described at the start. description. I am a verb, not a noun, as I am everchanging. I am being, not a being. I am what I am. In the now, I am a who. Before and after the now, I am what, the essence of every thing. I am the Everything. I am the soul and its expression in the now. I am eye. I am what I see, as every thing I see is me. I am 1. I, like all seemingly independent things, am not an independent thing; just a facet of 1 thing, the Everything. I is time. The most frequently used pronoun, verb and noun are: I, is, and time. Taken together, the most frequent sentence would be: “I is time.” "I is time" is transcendental. I is a flow of events. I is infinite, continuous, eternal. I am God. God, to entertain itself, has created the play of life. God is the actors and the audience. For the actors, the play is a tragedy as everyone is eventually scripted out of the play, dies. For the audience, the play is a comedy, as the actors take their roles and themselves seriously. I am 11 In numerology, "Victor Teicher" is the number 11. Victor: V = 4 I = 9 C = 3 T = 2 O = 6 R = 9 Add the numbers together: 4 + 9 + 3 + 2 + 6 + 9 = 33 Since 33 is a master number, we do not reduce it any further. Teicher: T = 2 E = 5 I = 9 C = 3 H = 8 E = 5 R = 9 Add the numbers together: 2 + 5 + 9 + 3 + 8 + 5 + 9 = 41 Since 41 is a two-digit number, we need to reduce it to a single digit by adding the digits together: 4 + 1 = 5. Now we add the numerology for each name together: 33 + 5 = 38 Since 38 is a two-digit number, we need to reduce it to a single digit by adding the digits together: 3 + 8 = 11. Therefore, the numerology of the name ‘Victor Teicher’ is 11, which is a master number in numerology. This suggests that the person with this name may have a special spiritual mission or purpose in life. In numerology, master numbers are the numbers 11, 22, and 33. These numbers are considered to have a higher vibration and are believed to carry a special spiritual or energetic significance. Master numbers are not reduced to a single digit in numerology, unlike other numbers. They are thought to represent spiritual enlightenment, heightened intuition, and a strong connection to the universe or higher power. Those who have master numbers in their numerology chart may be seen as spiritual leaders or visionaries, and may have a heightened ability to manifest their desires or tap into their intuition. However, master numbers are also associated with greater challenges and responsibilities, as they require a strong commitment to personal growth and spiritual development. Overall, master numbers are considered to be very powerful and significant in numerology, and are often seen as a symbol of great potential and spiritual evolution.” I am Victor Teicher. My role in the play of life is preordained by my name. In German, Teicher is one who ponders. In English, where two vowels together are pronounced as the first vowel with the second vowel silent, Teicher would be pronounced as "teacher." In Japan, Teicher is pronounced as "taisha," the ancient shrine where all the gods meet annually. Victor is "conqueror." Since entering the play of life, I have long pondered the nature of consciousness which led me to where the gods reside. The revelations that have come my way are to teach us how to conquer the self (our personal identity) which imprisons us, precluding us from connecting with the soul and being one with the Everything. ...
18 Sep Tao Te Ching — Verse 45
True perfection seems imperfect, yet it is perfectly itself. True fullness seems empty, yet it is fully present. True straightness seems crooked. True wisdom seems foolish. True art seems artless. The Master allows things to happen. She shapes events as they come. She steps out of the way and lets the Tao speak for itself. "True perfection seems imperfect, yet it is perfectly itself." What may not seem perfect in our mind is actually perfect as it is what it is whatever it is, undisturbed by our perception. "True fullness seems empty, yet it is fully present." Even when we have all the possessions we may desire, we are still empty as the more we have the more we want. In the present (the pre-sent, where every thing is one thing before it is what it is whatever it is in the now), we are one with the everything; truly fulfilled and need nothing more. "True straightness seems crooked." The way of a meandering river is the straightest way to the ocean. "True wisdom seems foolish." Wisdom is the synthesis of many perceptions; some seemingly well reasoned, some silly. "True art seems artless." Art is all that is art-ificial, manmade. Yet, wonderful art doesn't seem artificial, contrived. "The Master allows things to happen. She shapes events as they come. She steps out of the way and lets the Tao speak for itself." Being open, accepting and making the best of what comes our way leads us to harmony with all that's about us....

The self and the soul have a symmetrical relationship, laughing at each other. As the self cannot see the soul, the self laughs at those who identify with the soul; thinking they are fools. As the soul sees people taking seriously the illusions created by the self, the soul laughs. But, as the self is temporary and the soul eternal, the soul has the last laugh....
