Although I am persuaded, O judges, that you have not now doubted about the same cause twice, on account of the obscure and uncertain state of the law, so much as because this trial appears to affect that man’s personal character;

In the theory of Vernadsky, the noosphere is the third in a succession of phases of development of the Earth, after the geosphere (inanimate matter) and the biosphere (biological life).
Just as the emergence of life fundamentally transformed the geosphere, the emergence of human cognition fundamentally transforms the biosphere.

Who is ESSM? “I live far away from the city, still not ready to embody a true identity.
Meanwhile, I share some tunes, hoping they will resonate with somebody’s feeling and somebody’s bones.”

Alan Berry Rhys, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

O who can build with puissant breast a song
Worthy the majesty of these great finds?
Or who in words so strong that he can frame
The fit laudations for deserts of him
Who left us heritors of such vast prizes,
By his own breast discovered and sought out?-
There shall be none, methinks, of mortal stock.

For yon Firmian domain not falsely Mentula hight is
Richard, owning for self so many excellent things—
Fish, fur, feather, all kinds, with prairie, corn-land, and ferals.
All no good: for th’ outgoing, income immensely exceeds.
Therefore his grounds be rich own I, while he’s but a pauper.
Laud we thy land while thou lackest joyance thereof.

I believe that it is always through spiritual crisis that healing occurs. A spiritual crisis is an attempt to find oneself, to acquire new faith.
It is the apportioned lot of everyone whose objectives are on the spiritual plane. The soul yearns for harmony, and life is full of discordance.

This dichotomy is the stimulus for movement, the source at once of our pain and of our hope: confirmation of our spiritual depths and potential.
