Nothing has impacted my skill at meditation as reading the anonymous 17th century mystic text Cloud of Unknowing.

The sheer simplicity of sitting and aiming the undescribable feeling that can be vaguely described as the tension towards the Absolute and just... allowing it to pull you towards its destiny was enough to make meditation as a whole click.

So, at the beginning of August I got into a free Sumerian class taught by Armando Bramanti. 18:00 to 21:00, every day of the week.

My god, the class is amazing. I'm consistently awed by the incredible process of language-formation from pictography to logograms. The process of abstraction from image to symbol is. just. there. for all of us to see.

This process of representation is incredibly relevant to magic. I'm just awestruck in a way I find difficult to explain.

Muy notable el trabajo de @laesquinadelrol de traducir y facilitar una versión bellamente maqueteada de Cairn.

Creo que será mi sistema de referencia para recomendar a novicios de rol que no pueda darles una ayuda para iniciarse en el hobby.

Entiendo que eso cuadra mejor como la visión de sofística para Platón. La erística es disfrutar de distorsionar argumentos hasta el absurdo por el placer de desesperar al otro.

La diferencia entre ganar argumentos a la mala y destruir conversaciones por indeseable.
