Simon van der Els I pursue supporting the healing of individuals, groups and systems in all the ways I am able to. "fragmentation is now very widespread, not only throughout society, but also in each individual; and this is leading to a kind of general confusion of the mind, which creates an endless series of problems and interferes with our clarity of perception so seriously as to prevent us from being able to solve most of them." - David Bohm This fragmentation requires healing. The word 'healing' comes from Proto-Germanic 'Hailjan' which means literally "to make whole". The process of whole-ing I'm interested in is not one that is actively done, which does not require a 'doing' or a 'making' even. It is a matter of perception, a widening of our attention to witness a state which is present: wholeness. The universe, the earth, yourself: these are already whole. When wholeness is truly perceived, the healing is quick to follow. "The ability to observe without evaluating is the highest form of intelligence." — J. Krishnamurti In my academic studies and work I've gone from generalist (biology) to hyper specialist (molecular microbiology). Later I've resurfaced and moved to generalist again, specifically investigating humanity's current predicament in the Metacrisis. For this I've read and listened to a wide range of sources and subjects: philosophy, science, spirituality and metaphysics. I aim to bring whole-ing with my research and communication. In the recent years the state of the natural world (including humanity) presses heavily on all of my senses presses heavily on all of my senses (especially the heart). This weight functions as a force to deepen and widen my perception. I pursue different personal contemplative practices to integrate those percepts, these include: different meditations, time in nature, psychoactive plant medicines and also I'm training various shamanic practices. I offer life-coaching and guidance work to people who feel stuck in life and in this moment of planetary upheaval. In this work I journey with the client in identifying their stuck patterns, releasing them and developing a new orientation towards their personal path. The methods I use are determined by the process, and I'm developing myself in ways of supporting all of Life in healing. http://linkedin.com/in/simon-van-der-els-66434b231 ( http://linkedin.com/in/simon-van-der-els-66434b231 ) TrueLife Episode 555 December 5, 2023 ★ Episode details: https://share.transistor.fm/s/08b7b2cc ★ Additional episodes: https://truelife.transistor.fm/

Welcome to The Codex Chronicles… A professor’s Tale of Manuscripts. https://davidsalomonblog.wordpress.com https://cnu.edu/people/davidsalomon/ Dr. David A. Salomon holds a PhD in English literature from the University of Connecticut and an MA from the City University of New York. A specialist in the literature, religion and culture of the Middle Ages and Renaissance England, he most recently spent thirteen years as a professor of English at the Sage Colleges in Troy and Albany, NY. During his time there, he also served as chair of the Department of English and Modern Languages, director of general education, director of study abroad, chair of the Faculty Development Committee, faculty advisor for the student newspaper, and was the founding director of the Kathleen Donnelly Center for Undergraduate Research. He joined CNU as the inaugural Director of Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity in September 2017. His book on the medieval glossed Bible was published by the University of Wales Press in 2013. In 2015, he co-edited and co-authored a monograph, Redefining the Paradigm, which discussed new models for faculty evaluation to improve student learning. His new book, The Seven Deadly Sins: How Sin Influenced the West from the Middle Ages to the Modern Era, was published by Praeger in April 2019. He has published essays on everything from medieval mysticism to anger in the Bible, and has given presentations on teaching and faculty evaluation models at conferences, such as the Teaching Professor and the annual AACU Conference. Medieval manuscripts are perceived differently by the human senses compared to common text today, offering a unique and multisensory experience: 1. Visual Aesthetics: Medieval manuscripts, often handwritten and lavishly decorated, showcase intricate calligraphy, elaborate illustrations, and vibrant colors. The visual aesthetics of these manuscripts evoke a sense of artistry and craftsmanship that is distinct from modern printed text. 2. Tactile Sensation: The parchment or vellum used for medieval manuscripts provides a tactile experience as one feels the texture of the material beneath their fingers. This physical interaction with the medium adds a sensory dimension to reading and handling these historical texts. 3. Aged Scent: Over time, medieval manuscripts develop a distinct aroma, carrying the scent of antiquity. This aged smell can evoke a feeling of connection to the past and contribute to the overall sensory experience. 4. Historical Connection: Reading medieval manuscripts allows individuals to connect with the past in a way that digital or modern printed texts cannot replicate. The physicality of holding an ancient document establishes a direct link to the historical era in which it was created. 5. Auditory Silence: Unlike the electronic devices that accompany much of modern reading, medieval manuscripts invite a quieter environment for exploration. The absence of electronic buzz allows readers to immerse themselves in the silence of the written word. 6. Cultural Imagination: The experience of reading medieval manuscripts transports readers into a different cultural mindset, understanding the context in which these texts were written, interpreted, and appreciated. 7. Spiritual and Mystical Essence: For manuscripts related to religion and mysticism, the act of reading becomes a spiritual journey, as the physicality of the text and the esoteric content converge to create a unique spiritual experience. In summary, medieval manuscripts offer a multisensory encounter that goes beyond the mere act of reading. The visual aesthetics, tactile sensation, historical connection, and spiritual essence create a captivating journey that connects readers to both the words on the page and the distant world from which they emerged.
