Placebo - Special Needs








Remember me when you're the one who's silver screened
Remember me when you're the one you always dreamed
Remember me whenever noses start to bleed
Remember me, special needs

Just 19 and sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour
Just 19 and dream obscene with six months off for bad behaviour

Remember me when you clinch your movie deal
And think of me stuck in my chair that has four wheels
Remember me through flash photography and screams
Remember me, special dreams

Just 19 this sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour
Just 19 and dream obscene with six months off for bad behaviour
Just 19 and sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour
Just 19 and dream obscene with six months off for bad behaviour

Remember me...

Just 19 this sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour
Just 19 and dream obscene with six months off for bad behaviour
Just 19 and sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour
Just 19 and dream obscene with six months off for bad behaviour

Remember me...

This is the story of love
a dancer discovers the importance of a relationship 
through the art of dance.

INCUBUS - Dig Lyrics  

We all have a weakness
But some of ours are easy to identify.
Look me in the eye
And ask for forgiveness;
We'll make a pact to never speak that word again
Yes you are my friend.
We all have something that digs at us,
At least we dig each other
So when weakness turns my ego up
I know you'll count on the me from yesterday
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone.
We all have a sickness
That cleverly attaches and multiplies
No matter how we try.
We all have someone that digs at us,
At least we dig each other
So when sickness turns my ego up
I know you'll act as a clever medicine.
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me.
Sing this song!
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone.
Oh each other....
When everything
Else is gone.



Def Leppard - All I Want Is Everything





I dont know how to leave you
And I dont know how to stay
Ive got things that I must tell you
That I dont know how to say

The man behind these empty words
Is crying out in shame
Holding on to this sinking ship
When nothing else remains

All I want is everything
Am I asking too much?
All I want is everything
Like the feel of your touch
But all I have are yesterdays
Tomorrow never comes

Its hard to hold your head up
When you're kneeling down to pray
And the talking doesn't come easy now
When the words get in the way
And if you could see whats going on
Behind these private eyes
The truth would look so easy now
But Im running out of lies

You think the shadow of doubt
Is hangin over my head
Its just an angel whose wings hide the sun
And its myself I betray
I can not wish this away
Took my chance now the damage is done

All I want is everything
Am I asking too much?
All I want is everything
Like the feel, the feel of your touch
When all I have are yesterdays
Tomorrow never comes

Ooh, oooh
Ooh, oooh

Ra Ra Rasputin



I read some interesting articles wanted to share with you


http://www.alexanderpalace.com/2006rasputin/index.html

is name was Grigori Efimovich Rasputin and he is one of the most enigmatic men in modern history. Was he a misunderstood holy man with strange powers to heal - or was he a scheming sinner who manipulated the suffering of others? Tsarevich AlexisRight: The Tsarevich Alexis, he suffered from hemophilia and Rasputin was able to stop his bleeding.

Rasputin was born in the Tyumen district of Siberia, far away from the glittering salons in the Imperial Capital of St. Petersburg. Even today he is a shadowy and mysterious character; a person of contradictory personality traits. Was he a miracle worker or just a crafty manipulator of the Imperial Family? While he was alive, witnesses, including doctors and skeptics, concluded he possessed some inexplicable power over the Tsarevich and his deadly episodes of bleeding. This mysterious ability to heal her son was enough to convince Alexandra that Rasputin, whatever people said of him, must have been sent by God. In her mind he was he the answer to her fervent prayers for God to save her son. It was impossible for her to believe that he could have been a wolf in sheep's clothing. His influence over politics has been greatly exaggerated. Rasputin was a convenient scapegoat for those who wanted to attack the Tsar's appointments and decisions, but who wouldn't confront Nicholas directly.


Rasputin - Boney M

Rasputin was a Russian monk who had a vision of the Virgin Mary. As a result he began to wander the country visiting monasteries and religious sects. He preached the best way to get close to God was to sin and then repent. The adulterous monk, (his surname was a derivation of the adjective "rasputny" meaning "loose living"), had remarkable healing abilities. Rasputin adhered himself to the Russian Czar Nicholas and his wife by his healing of the hemophiliac Alexei. He appeared to have the gift of healing their sick son every time he began to hemorrhage. Upset at his increasing influence over the Russian royal family, several Russian nobles poisoned and beat him in the basement of Yusopov Palace then shot him several times. The monk refused to die so finally he was drowned by his enemies in the canals of St Petersburg.
Boney M. was the brainchild of German record producer Frank Farian, and they became one of Eurodisco's most successful acts. The group was composed of four singers all of West Indian origin: Marcia Barrett, Bobby Farrell, Liz Mitchell and Massie Williams. Farian later repeated formula with Milli Vanilli and Far Corporation. Their double sided single "Rivers Of Babylon/Brown Girl in The Ring" is one of only 5 singles to have sold over 2 million copies in the UK and is the biggest selling record by a black act there

Rasputin - Boney M Lyrics

There lived a certain man in Russia long ago
He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow
Most people looked at him with terror and with fear
But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear
He could preach the bible like a preacher
Full of ecstacy and fire
But he also was the kind of teacher
Women would desire


RA RA RASPUTIN
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone
RA RA RASPUTIN
Russia's greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on


He ruled the Russian land and never mind the czar
But the kasachok he danced really wunderbar
In all affairs of state he was the man to please
But he was real great when he had a girl to squeeze
For the queen he was no wheeler dealer
Though she'd heard the things he'd done
She believed he was a holy healer
Who would heal her son


(Spoken:)
But when his drinking and lusting and his hunger
for power became known to more and more people,
the demands to do something about this outrageous
man became louder and louder.


"This man's just got to go!" declared his enemies
But the ladies begged "Don't you try to do it, please"
No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms
Though he was a brute they just fell into his arms
Then one night some men of higher standing
Set a trap, they're not to blame
"Come to visit us" they kept demanding
And he really came


RA RA RASPUTIN
Lover of the Russian queen
They put some poison into his wine
RA RA RASPUTIN
Russia's greatest love machine
He drank it all and he said "I feel fine"


RA RA RASPUTIN
Lover of the Russian queen
They didn't quit, they wanted his head
RA RA RASPUTIN
Russia's greatest love machine
And so they shot him till he was dead


(Spoken:) Oh, those Russians...

فأنا لا أدرك ذاتي.
لستُ مسيحيا ، ولا يهوديا، ولا كافرا، زلا مسلما.
لم آتِ من الشرق ، ولا من الغرب ،
لا من البَرِّ ولا من البحر؛
لم تصنعني الطبيعة في مصانعها، ولا مدارات سماوية.
إنّي لست من التراب ، ولا من الماء، ولا من الهواء، ولا من النار،
لستُ من جنة الخلدِ ، ولا من الغبار، ولا من الوجود ، ولا من الكينونة.
لا أتحدر من الهند، ولا الصين ، ولا بلغاريا،ولاساقسين،
ولستُ من بلاد العراقين ِ، و لا من خراسان.
أنا أصلا لستُ من هذا الدنيا، ولا من الآخرة، ولا من الفردوس ولا الحجيم.
لستُ من آدم، ولا من حواء،
لا من عدْن ٍ ، ولا من رضوان.
فمكاني هو اللامكان، و آثاري لا تترك أيّ أثر،
إنّي لستُ من أي جسد ، ولا من أية روح ، لأنّي تابع لروح الحبيب.
طلّقت ُ الثنائية ، فأرى العالمَين ِ واحدا،
أبحث ، أعرف ثمة "ج" ، وأرى ، فأنادي.
إنّه الأول ، وإنّهُ الأخير ، إنّهُ الظاهر، وإنّه الباطن؛
إنّي لا أعرف أحدا سوى "ياهو" و " يامن هو" .
أنا ثمل بكأس العشق ِ ، والعالمان تجاوزا مدى ادراكي.
احتفالات الخمر والعربدة تشغلني عن كل شئ ،
ولو غفلت لحظة من عمري دون أن أعيشها ، لندمت عن حياتي منذ تلك اللحظة.
ولو غنمتُ منها لحظة في هذه الدنيا،
لسحقتُ كلا العالمين ، ولرقصتُ ابتهاجا بهذا النصر العظيم.
فيا شمس تبريز! أنا ثمل في هذا العالم،
وليس لي ما أقول سوى الثمالة والعربدة


الحب هو شكل من أشكال الاعتراف بالآخر بدون شروط ومقدمات، ويأتي الاعتراف المتبادل منذ النظرة الأولى فتنساب العواطف دون مخاتلة وتبدأ المكاشفة العلنية والصريحة لفضح الأسرار الكامنة بين الطرفين. فكلما كانت المكاشفة صادقة، كلما زاد التواتر الحسي بين الطرفين، وتعددت مسالك العواطف والأحاسيس لتفعل فعلها في أرواء عطش العشق والإعجاب ولتوقظ فصل الربيع كرامةّ لتفتح براعم الاشتياق واللهفة لتثمر عنها سلسلة لامتناهية من عناقيد الحب.
يعتقد ((جلال الدين الرومي))" أن الحب، هو هتك الأستار وكشف الأسرار".
الحب يعني القبول بمبدأ الاحتواء المزدوج لمنظومة الأخر، ولايقتصر ذلك على مكونات الجسد فقط وإنما يغوص أكثر في مكونات الروح لتنهل من أسرارها وهواجسها وعوالمها. ومن ثم تبدأ عملية التفاعل الروحي، لتعيد صياغة مكونات العلاقة الأرضية (الجسد) إلى علاقة كونية (الروح) سمتها التطابق والتوحد الروحي ساعيةً كل منها نحو الأخرى بأقصى الحدود لتحقيق الاحتواء دون أدنى تقصير.
يعرف ((جمال الدين الرومي)) الحب قائلاً:" يعني أن تميل بكلك إلى المحبوب، ثم تؤثره على نفسك وروحك ومالك ثم توافقه سراً وجهراً ثم تعترف بتقصيرك في حبه".
كما أنه يعني لهيب من نار مقدسة تضرم في القلب لتشعل عواطف وأحاسيس العاشق، ويمتد لهيبا ليطال المساحات الفاصلة بين الجسد والروح. إنها حرائق عارمة تضرم في منظومة الوجدان، لتعمد على تطهير النفوس بالنار المقدسة لتكون مؤهلة لإبرام عقد لعلاقة حب لها منظومة خاصة من القيم والأعراف قد تتعارض ومنظومة القيم والأعراف الاجتماعية.
يصفها ((جلال الدين الرومي))" بأنها النار المشتعلة في القلب والتي تحرق كل شيء عدا مراد المحبوب".
علاقة الحب هي اتفاق بدون اشتراطات مسبقة بين طرفين، لكنها تصادق على إسقاط حدود الأدب وتنبذًّ التقاليد والأعراف المنافية لمسارات العاطفة. وما تلبي من حاجات روحية لاتخضع لحساب المصلحة والمنفعة الشخصية وأنما تسعى لتلبية رغبات وحاجات الطرف الآخر دون مقابل، بل أنها رغبة عاطفية لاشعورية لتحقيق السعادة والفرح للأخر لأن الذات متوحدة روحياً، فسعادة الأخر تعني سعادة الروح ذاتها.
في هذا الإطار من تحقيق السعادة للمحب يرى ((جلال الدين الرومي))" أن الحب، هو استغلال الكثير من نفسك واستكثار القليل من محبوبك، فالحب يسقط شروط الأدب".
وإذا سلمنا بأن الحب شأن من شؤون القلب مركز الإحساس والعاطفة ومنظومة استلام ذبذبات التردد العاطفية من الآخر لحظة وقوع الحب ذاته، فدور منظومة العقل تنظيم وبناء هذه العلاقة بما يحقق صحة مسارها واستمرارها وتهيئة الظروف اللازمة لنموها وتطورها ليس على صعيد منظومتها الأرضية حسب، بل على صعيد منظومتها الروحية الحاضنة لمجمل مكوناتها وتفاصيلها اليومية.
يصف ((جلال الدين الرومي)) الحب قائلاً:" أنه كالغصن، حين يغرس في القلب فيثمر على قدر العقل".
ويعد الحب حالة من الهيام تنتاب المحب في لحظة لاشعورية، تسقط من حسابها الزمن والمكان والعرق.....إنها حالة إنسانية لاتؤطرها الأفكار والآراء التي تحكم العلاقة بين البشر. إنها نوع خاص من العلاقة تنهل سماتها ورموزها من عوالم روحية، لايمكن أن يصل إليها أو يحسها من لاتعتمر ذاته بالقيم الإنسانية.
الحب سمة من سمات العالم الكوني، تبقى ساكنة في الروح لحين أن تحفزها رغبة لاشعورية تسعى للتعاطي مع ذات إنسانية أخرى باحثة عن ارتباط روحي لتسمو أكثر في عالمها الكوني. إن فشل علاقة الحب، تعني قتلاً لمكونات روح جديدة تآلفت عناصرها من عصارة أحاسيس وعواطف لروحين تلاقت صدفة في عالمها الكوني وتصارحت في عالمها الأرضي.
إن الآثار المترتبة على فشل علاقة الحب، لاتطال تجاويف القلب ولا محطات العمر حسب، بل أنها تطال نبضات الروح. وتفتح الجراح كلما تحرشت بها ذاكرة الأيام فتهبط حلاوة الذكريات ومرها كهبوط ظلام الليل لتطفئ أنوار الروح وما تبقى لها من فسح اللقاء مع شريك أخر، قد لايصل في موعده إلى محطات العمر المتبقية.
يعتقد ((جلال الدين الرومي))" أن الحب أوله ختل وأخره قتل".
تستند مقومات الحب على ثقافة خاصة من العواطف والأحاسيس فكلما سمت، تسامى الحب ذاته، وكلما هبطت تضاءل الحب نفسه. إن ثقافة الحب، لاتمس جوهر فطريته ولاتحدًّ من انسيابه الطبيعي، وإنما تزيده عذرية وتقلل من فرص ضياعه وقتله.

Ibn Arabi محي الدين بن عربي






.
لقد كنت قبل اليوم أنكر صاحبي *** إذا لم يكن ديني إلى دينه داني

لقد صار قلبي قابلاً كل صـورة *** فمرعى لغزلان وديرٌ لرهبان

وبيتٌ لأوثان وكعبةُ طائـــفٍ *** وألواح توراة ومصحفُ قرآنِ

أدين بدين الحبِّ أنّى توجهــت*** ركائبه فالحبُّ ديني وإيماني







 O Marvel! a garden amidst the flames.
My heart has become capable of every form:
it is a pasture for gazelles and a convent for Christian monks,
and a temple for idols and the pilgrim's Kaa'ba,
and the tables of the Torah and the book of the Quran.
I follow the religion of Love: whatever way Love's camels take,
that is my religion and my faith.

John Mayer - Your Body Is A Wonderland








We got the afternoon
You got this room for two
One thing I've left to do
Discover me
Discovering you

One mile to every inch of
Your skin like porcelain
One pair of candy lips and
Your bubblegum tongue




And if you want love
We'll make it
Swim in a deep sea
Of blankets
Take all your big plans
And break 'em
This is bound to be awhile

Your body is a wonderland
Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands)
Your body is a wonderland







Something 'bout the way the hair falls in your face
I love the shape you take when crawling towards the pillowcase
You tell me where to go and
Though I might leave to find it
I'll never let your head hit the bed
Without my hand behind it


You want love?
We'll make it
Swim in a deep sea
Of blankets
Take all your big plans
And break 'em
This is bound to be awhile

Your body is a wonderland
Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands)
Your body is a wonderland



Damn baby
You frustrate me
I know you're mine all mine all mine
But you look so good it hurts sometimes

Your body is a wonderland
Your body is a wonder(I'll use my hands)
Your body is a wonderland
Your body is a wonderland

Artist: Charles Aznavour
Song: La BoheMe 


I have heard all about Love Land
And all of its little charms
But I know I'll never get to Love Land
Unless I'm wrapped up in your arms
Yo've got to take me with you--please, take me with you
How I'd love to walk down that golden street
Hand-in-hand with you where all the lovers meet
Whoa, I'd love to go to Love Land with you
Pretty baby, 'cause my love is true
I swear I do



I have heard all about Love Land
And all of its youthful hearts
Well, lonliness just can't live there
And happiness is the answer
You've got to take me with you
Baby, got to take me with you, oh baby
How I'd love to walk down that golden street
Hand-in-hand with you where all the lovers meet
How I'd love to go to Love Land with you, yeah

Oh, I'd like to walk with you down that golden street
Hand-in-hand with you where all the lovers meet
How I'd love to go to Love Land, Love Land with you
I do, swear I do
My love is true, take me with you, baby
Yeah--take me with you, baby

The Venus of Willendorf


The Venus of Willendorf
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venus_of_Willendorf
The Venus of Willendorf, also known as the Woman of Willendorf, is an 4 3/8 inches high statuette of a female figure estimated to have been made between 24,000 BC – 22,000 BC. It was discovered in 1908 by archaeologist Josef Szombathy at a paleolithic site near Willendorf, a village in Lower Austria near the city of Krems.[1] It is carved from an oolitic limestone that is not local to the area, and tinted with red ochre.
Since this figure's discovery and naming, several similar statuettes and other forms of art have been discovered. They are collectively referred to as Venus figurines, although they pre-date the mythological figure of Venus by millennia.

Alanis Morissette - King Of Pain


Theres a little black spot on the sun today
Its the same old thing as yesterday
Theres a black hat caught in a high tree top
Theres a flag-pole rag and the wind wont stop

I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running round my brain
I guess Im always hoping that youll end this reign
But its my destiny to be the king of pain

Theres a fossil thats trapped in a high cliff wall
Thats my soul up there
Theres a dead salmon frozen in a waterfall
Thats my soul up there
Theres a blue whale beached by a springtimes ebb
Thats my soul up there
Theres a butterfly trapped in a spiders web

I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running round my brain
I guess Im always hoping that youll end this reign
But its my destiny to be the king of pain

Theres a king on a throne with his eyes torn out
Theres a blind man looking for a shadow of doubt
Theres a rich man sleeping on a golden bed
Theres a skeleton choking on a crust of bread

Theres a red fox torn by a huntsmans pack
Theres a black-winged gull with a broken back
Theres a little black spot on the sun today
Its the same old thing as yesterday

I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running round my brain
I guess Im always hoping that youll end this reign
But its my destiny to be the king of pain

Queen of pain
Ill always be queen of pain
Ill always be queen of pain

Tosca delivers her famous "Vissi d'arte, vissi d'amore" maria callas




"Vissi d'arte, vissi d'amore,

I lived for art, I lived for love;
Never did I harm a living creature!...
-----------------------------------------------
Vissi d'arte, vissi d'amore,
Non feci mai male ad anima viva!
Con man furtiva
Quante miserie conobbi, aiutai.
Sempre con fè sincera
La mia preghiera
Ai santi tabernacoli sal?,
Sempre con fè sincera
Diede fiori agli altar.
Nell'ora del dolore perchè,
Perchè Signore, perchè
Me ne rimuneri cos?

I lived for art, I lived for love:
Never did I harm a living creature!
Whatever misfortunes I encountered
I sought with secret hand to succor.
Ever in pure faith
My prayers rose
In the holy chapels,
Ever in pure faith
I brought flowers to the altar.
In this hour of pain, why,
Why, oh Lord, why
Dost thou repay me thus?

Kant - What is Enlightenment?


An Answer to the Question: "What is Enlightenment?"

Immanuel Kant


....Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed immaturity.Immaturity is the inability to use one's understanding without guidance from another. This immaturity is self-imposed when its cause lies not in lack of understanding, but in lack of resolve and courage to use it without guidance from another. Sapere Aude!1 "Have courage to use your own understanding!" — that is the motto of enlightenment. ¶

Laziness and cowardice are the reasons why so great a proportion of men, long after nature has released them from alien guidance (naturaliter maiorennes), nonetheless gladly remain in lifelong immaturity, and why it is so easy for others to establish themselves as their guardians. It is so easy to be immature. If I have a book to serve as my understanding, a pastor to serve as my conscience, a physician to determine my diet for me, and so on, I need not exert myself at all. I need not think, if only I can pay: others will readily undertake the irksome work for me. The guardians who have so benevolently taken over the supervision of men have carefully seen to it that the far greatest part of them (including the entire fair sex) regard taking the step to maturity as very dangerous, not to mention difficult. Having first made their domestic livestock dumb, and having carefully made sure that these docile creatures will not take a single step without the go-cart to which they are harnessed, these guardians then show them the danger that threatens them, should they attempt to walk alone. Now this danger is not actually so great, for after falling a few times they would in the end certainly learn to walk; but an example of this kind makes men timid and usually frightens them out of all further attempts. ¶

Thus, it is difficult for any individual man to work himself out of the immaturity that has all but become his nature. He has even become fond of this state and for the time being is actually incapable of using his own understanding, for no one has ever allowed him to attempt it. Rules and formulas, those mechanical aids to the rational use, or rather misuse, of his natural gifts, are the shackles of a permanent immaturity. Whoever threw them off would still make only an uncertain leap over the smallest ditch, since he is unaccustomed to this kind of free movement. Consequently, only a few have succeeded, by cultivating their own minds, in freeing themselves from immaturity and pursuing a secure course. ¶

But that the public should enlighten itself is more likely; indeed, if it is only allowed freedom, enlightenment is almost inevitable. For even among the entrenched guardians of the great masses a few will always think for themselves, a few who, after having themselves thrown off the yoke of immaturity, will spread the spirit of a rational appreciation for both their own worth and for each person's calling to think for himself. But it should be particularly noted that if a public that was first placed in this yoke by the guardians is suitably aroused by some of those who are altogether incapable of enlightenment, it may force the guardians themselves to remain under the yoke—so pernicious is it to instill prejudices, for they finally take revenge upon their originators, or on their descendants. Thus a public can only attain enlightenment slowly. Perhaps a revolution can overthrow autocratic despotism and profiteering or power-grabbing oppression, but it can never truly reform a manner of thinking; instead, new prejudices, just like the old ones they replace, will serve as a leash for the great unthinking mass. ¶

Nothing is required for this enlightenment, however, except freedom; and the freedom in question is the least harmful of all, namely, the freedom to use reason publicly in all matters. But on all sides I hear: "Do not argue!" The officer says, "Do not argue, drill!" The tax man says, "Do not argue, pay!" The pastor says, " Do not argue, believe!" (Only one ruler in the World says, "Argue as much as you want and about what you want, but obey!") In this we have examples of pervasive restrictions on freedom. But which restriction hinders enlightenment and which does not, but instead actually advances it? I reply: The public use of one's reason must always be free, and it alone can bring about enlightenment among mankind; the private use of reason may, however, often be very narrowly restricted, without otherwise hindering the progress of enlightenment. By the public use of one's own reason I understand the use that anyone as a scholarliterate world. I call the private use of reason that which a person may make in a civic post or office that has been entrusted to him. Now in many affairs conducted in the interests of a community, a certain mechanism is required by means of which some of its members must conduct themselves in an entirely passive manner so that through an artificial unanimity the government may guide them toward public ends, or at least prevent them from destroying such ends. Here one certainly must not argue, instead one must obey. However, insofar as this part of the machine also regards himself as a member of the community as a whole, or even of the world community, and as a consequence addresses the public in the role of a scholar, in the proper sense of that term, he can most certainly argue, without thereby harming the affairs for which as a passive member he is partly responsible. Thus it would be disastrous if an officer on duty who was given a command by his superior were to question the appropriateness or utility of the order. He must obey. But as a scholar he cannot be justly constrained from making comments about errors in military service, or from placing them before the public for its judgment. The citizen cannot refuse to pay the taxes imposed on him; indeed, impertinent criticism of such levies, when they should be paid by him, can be punished as a scandal (since it can lead to widespread insubordination). But the same person does not act contrary to civic duty when, as a scholar, he publicly expresses his thoughts regarding the impropriety or even injustice of such taxes. Likewise a pastor is bound to instruct his catecumens and congregation in accordance with the symbol of the church he serves, for he was appointed on that condition. But as a scholar he has complete freedom, indeed even the calling, to impart to the public all of his carefully considered and well-intentioned thoughts concerning mistaken aspects of that symbol, as well as his suggestions for the better arrangement of religious and church matters. Nothing in this can weigh on his conscience. What he teaches in consequence of his office as a servant of the church he sets out as something with regard to which he has no discretion to teach in accord with his own lights; rather, he offers it under the direction and in the name of another. He will say, "Our church teaches this or that and these are the demonstrations it uses." He thereby extracts for his congregation all practical uses from precepts to which he would not himself subscribe with complete conviction, but whose presentation he can nonetheless undertake, since it is not entirely impossible that truth lies hidden in them, and, in any case, nothing contrary to the very nature of religion is to be found in them. If he believed he could find anything of the latter sort in them, he could not in good conscience serve in hisposition; he would have to resign. Thus an appointed teacher's use of his reason for the sake of his congregation is merely private, because, however large the congregation is, this use is always only domestic; in this regard, as a priest, he is not free and cannot be such because he is acting under instructions from someone else. By contrast, the cleric— as a scholar who speaks through his writings to the public as such, i.e., the world—enjoys in this public use of reason an unrestricted freedom to use his own rational capacities and to speak his own mind. For that the (spiritual) guardians of a people should themselves be immature is an absurdity that would insure the perpetuation of absurdities. ¶ makes of reason before the entire

But would a society of pastors, perhaps a church assembly or venerable presbytery (as those among the Dutch call themselves), not be justified in binding itself by oath to a certain unalterable symbol in order to secure a constant guardianship over each of its members and through them over the people, and this for all time: I say that this is wholly impossible. Such a contract, whose intention is to preclude forever all further enlightenment of the human race, is absolutely null and void, even if it should be ratified by the supreme power, by parliaments, and by the most solemn peace treaties. One age cannot bind itself, and thus conspire, to place a succeeding one in a condition whereby it would be impossible for the later age to expand its knowledge (particularly where it is so very important), to rid itself of errors,and generally to increase its enlightenment. That would be a crime against human nature, whose essential destiny lies precisely in such progress; subsequent generations are thus completely justified in dismissing such agreements as unauthorized and criminal. The criterion of everything that can be agreed upon as a law by a people lies in this question: Can a people impose such a law on itself? Now it might be possible, in anticipation of a better state of affairs, to introduce a provisional order for a specific, short time, all the while giving all citizens, especially clergy, in their role as scholars, the freedom to comment publicly, i.e., in writing, on the present institution's shortcomings. The provisional order might last until insight into the nature of these matters had become so widespread and obvious that the combined (if not unanimous) voices of the populace could propose to the crown that it take under its protection those congregations that, in accord with their newly gained insight, had organized themselves under altered religious institutions, but without interfering with those wishing to allow matters to remain as before. However, it is absolutely forbidden that they unite into a religious organization that nobody may for the duration of a man's lifetime publicly question, for so doing would deny, render fruitless, and make detrimental to succeeding generations an era in man's progress toward improvement. A man may put off enlightenment with regard to what he ought to know, though only for a short time and for his own person; but to renounce it for himself, or, even more, for subsequent generations, is to violate and trample man's divine rights underfoot. And what a people may not decree for itself may still less be imposed on it by a monarch, for his lawgiving authority rests on his unification of the people's collective will in his own. If he only sees to it that all genuine or purported improvement is consonant with civil order, he can allow his subjects to do what they find necessary to their spiritual well-being, which is not his affair. However, he must prevent anyone from forcibly interfering with another's working as best he can to determine and promote his well-being. It detracts from his own majesty when he interferes in these matters, since the writings in which his subjects attempt to clarify their insights lend value to his conception of governance. This holds whether he acts from his own highest insight—whereby he calls upon himself the reproach, "Caesar non est supra grammaticos."2 — as well as, indeed even more, when he despoils his highest authority by supporting the spiritual despotism of some tyrants in his state over his other subjects. ¶

If it is now asked, "Do we presently live in an enlightened age?" the answer is, "No, but we do live in an age of enlightenment." As matters now stand, a great deal is still lacking in order for men as a whole to be, or even to put themselves into a position to be able without external guidance to apply understanding confidently to religious issues. But we do have clear indications that the way is now being opened for men to proceed freely in this direction and that the obstacles to general enlightenment—to their release from their self-imposed immaturity—are gradually diminishing. In this regard, this age is the age of enlightenment, the century of Frederick3. ¶

A prince who does not find it beneath him to say that he takes it to be his duty to prescribe nothing, but rather to allow men complete freedom in religious matters—who thereby renounces the arrogant title of tolerance—is himself enlightened and deserves to be praised by a grateful present and by posterity as the first, at least where the government is concerned, to release the human race from immaturity and to leave everyone free to use his own reason in all matters of conscience. Under his rule, venerable pastors, in their role as scholars and without prejudice to their official duties, may freely and openly set out for the world's scrutiny their judgments and views, even where these occasionally differ from the accepted symbol. Still greater freedom is afforded to those who are not restricted by an official post. This spirit of freedom is expanding even where it must struggle against the external obstacles of governments that misunderstand their own function. Such governments are illuminated by the example that the existence of freedom need not give cause for the least concern regarding public order and harmony in the commonwealth. If only they refrain from inventing artifices to keep themselves in it, men will gradually raise themselves from barbarism. ¶

I have focused on religious matters in setting out my main point concerning enlightenment, i.e., man's emergence from self-imposed immaturity, first because our rulers have no interest in assuming the role of their subjects' guardians with respect to the arts and sciences, and secondly because that form of immaturity is both the most pernicious and disgraceful of all. But the manner of thinking of a head of state who favors religious enlightenment goes even further, for he realizes that there is no danger to his legislation in allowing his subjects to use reason publicly and to set before the world their thoughts concerning better formulations of his laws, even if this involves frank criticism of legislation currently in effect. We have before us a shining example, with respect to which no monarch surpasses the one whom we honor. ¶
But only a ruler who is himself enlightened and has no dread of shadows, yet who likewise has a well-disciplined, numerous army to guarantee public peace, can say what no republic may dare, namely: "Argue as much as you want and about what you want, but obey!" Here as elsewhere, when things are considered in broad perspective, a strange, unexpected pattern in human affairs reveals itself, one in which almost everything is paradoxical. A greater degree of civil freedom seems advantageous to a people's spiritual freedom; yet the former established impassable boundaries for the latter; conversely, a lesser degree of civil freedom provides enough room for all fully to expand their abilities. Thus, once nature has removed the hard shell from this kernel for which she has most fondly cared, namely, the inclination to and vocation for free thinking, the kernel gradually reacts on a people's mentality (whereby they become increasingly able to act freely), and it finally even influences the principles of government, which finds that it can profit by treating men, who are now more than machines, in accord with their dignity.

عمانوئيل كانط 1724-1804

 فيلسوف بروسي (ألماني) ولد في كنجسبرج والتحق بمعهد فريدريك الديني في العام 1732، وفي العام 1740 التحق بجامعة كنجسبيرج حيث درس اللاتينية والأدب في المعهد ودرس الفلسفة والرياضيات وعلوم الدين والفيزياء وفي1755 حصل على شهادة الماجستير وعمل مدرسا في الجامعة التي تخرج منها.
 بقي مدرسا مدة خمسة عشر عاما قام خلالها بتدريس العديد من المواضيع ومن ضمنها الميتافيزيقا والمنطق والرياضيات وعلم الأخلاق
وفشل في أن يصبح أستاذا حتى 1770 حين فرغ كرسي المنطق والميتافيزيقا وعين فيه.
 استمر بالعمل في الجامعة حتى 1796 اصبح عضوا في مجلس الشيوخ الأكاديمي في العام 1780.
وفي 1787 صار عضوا في الأكاديمية الملكية للعلوم في برلين توفي في عام 1804 ودفن في قبو الأساتذة في مقبرة الجامعة.
ومن ثم أقيم له ضريح في العام 1880 ونقشت على جداره عبارته الشهيرة التي أنهى بها كتابه "نقد العقل العملي":
 "السماء المرصعة بالنجوم من فوقي والقانون الأخلاقي في باطن نفسي".




سجن البلاهة(عمانويل كانط)

خروج الإنسان من حالة القصور التي يبقى هو المسؤول عن وجوده فيها.
والقصور هو حالة العجز عن استخدام الفكر [عند الإنسان] خارج قيادة الآخرين.
والإنسان [القاصر] مسؤول عن قصوره لأن العلة في ذلك ليست في غياب الفكر
 وإنما في انعدام القدرة على اتخاذ القرار وفقدان الشجاعة على ممارسته، دون قيادة الآخرين.


 لتكن تلك الشجاعة على استخدام فكرك بنفسك

إن الخمول والجبن هما السببان اللذان يفسران وجود عدد كبير من الناس قد حررتهم الطبيعة منذ زمن بعيد من قيادة غريبة [عنهم] لكنهم ظلوا قصّرا طوال حياتهم عن رضى منهم
حتى ليسهل على غيرهم فرض الوصاية عليهم.

وما أسهل أن يبقى المرء قاصراً.
فإذا كان لدي كتاب يحتل عندي مكان الفكر، وقائد يعوض الوعي فيّ، وطبيب يقرر لي برنامج تغذيتي، الخ...
فلا حاجة لي في ان أحمل نفسي عناء [البحث]
 ولا حاجة لي في أن أفكر ما دمت قادرا على دفع الثمن لكي يقبل الآخرون على هذه المشقة المملة.

إن الأغلبية الكبيرة من الناس [بما في ذلك الجنس اللطيف إجمالا]
تعتبر تلك الخطوة نحو الرشد عظيمة الخطر، فضلا عن أنها أمر مرهق.
ويساعدهم على القبول بحالة القصور هذه
أولئك الأوصياء الذين آلو على أنفسهم ممارسة سلطة لا تطال على الإنسانية.

فبعد ان أطبقوا [سجن] البلاهة على قطعا نهم وعملوا على مراقبة هذه المخلوقات الهادئة مراقبة دقيقة
حتى لا تسمح لنفسها بالمجاسرة على أدنى خطوة خارج الحقل الذي حشرت فيه
أظهروا لها الخطر الذي يهددها إن هي غامرت بالخروج وحدها.
لكن الخطر ليس كبيرا في حقيقة الأمر
لأنها [لو أقدمت عليه] فسوف تتعلم السير بعد عثرات قليلة.
 إلا أن مثل هذه الكبوات تولد الاحتراز
وعادة ما يحملنا الخوف- الذي ينتج عن ذلك- على العدول عن محاولة أخرى.
 لذلك فإنه من العسير على أي شخص بمفرده الإفلات من حالة القصور التي كادت أن تصبح طبيعية فيه
 إذ صار يرتاح إليها-غير قادر في هذه الفترة-على استخدام فكره الخاص وقد حرم من فرصة المحاولة.
