Synopsis :
Why casino’s are failing . Some simple techniques to make
you more conscious , mindfull and smarter . Also luckier . Luck is not Zero-sum
.
Discussion :
1.Latest research indicates group meditation as effective as
individual therapy .
Group mindfulness treatment is as effective as
individual cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in patients with depression and
anxiety, according to a new study. This is the first randomized study to
compare group mindfulness treatment and individual cognitive behavioral therapy
in patients with depression and anxiety in primary health care.
How to set up a group .
2.The joker :
The Group need not be real . Virtual might even be better .
3.Set up a virtual group of Mentor Avatars (like Gauss ,
Newton , Euler , etc) . Treat them like real persons .
See Appendix I .
You are creating mirror neuron networks in your brain .
Use programs if possible . Start with three .
4.The proliferation of mirror neuronal networks not only makes you smarter , but more stable
as well . Your personality is but a vote amongst mirror networks .
Techniques for how stupid people can do smart things .
6.Sleep and souls .
See
Think of the soul as a “cloud-storage type memory” .
If updated with primitive compression during sleep , 1/3 time necessary .
Getting smarter means getting better organized , better
packing , and less sleep .
But never zero .
Zero sleep means a discontinuity . And if forced by
mechanical or chemical means , will lead to the personality fragmenting
(Psychosis) .
Negative sleep is the definition of a mirror neuron or
primitive . See http://andreswhy.blogspot.com/2006/06/primitives0.html
Being super-conscious does not mean that you have to be even
conscious all the time . (A-la-Gurdjieff)
7.Does God sleep ?
Only during the boring bits . This is where omniscience
comes in handy .
8.Approaching singularity effects :
The Souls grow more concentrated as sizes decrease and
masses increase . Information transfer improves non-linearly .
This can be measured .
Rhine-card type tests should show a non-linear sine-form
increase in correct guesses in the manifold around the
experimentee-experimentor pair .
9.What does this mean ?
Casino’s will go out of business .
And here I thought it was simply the economy that Atlantic
City is closing up shop .
Everybody is just getting luckier .
The rules are changing .
10 . Well , that was a surprise .
Better watch the universal constants as well .
Big G has varied .
This indicates some significant soul-massing in the vicinity
of Sol as we go into the singularity .
Expect significant gravitational anomalies .
Here’s looking at yourself , kid .

Boosting Mirror Neurons
Andre Willers
1 Oct 2013
Synopsis :
Simple methods using existing technology to boost Mirror
Neurons .
Discussion :
0.In order of Effectiveness , ease of use and cost .
1.Zapping intestinal flora and fauna .
Use large doses (6-8 gm)of Vit C , antibiotics ,alcohol etc
.
Most of the immune system (80-90%) , including T-cells , is
clustered around the intestinal tract to keep all the bugs under control .
Killing them off frees the immune system for other tasks.
See Appendix A why this makes you smarter ..
Note that this is an experimental observation , not an
explanation .
Still , it works , is simple and inexpensive .
Why creative people overuse alcohol .
VitC (8gm) will have the same effect . But where is the fun
of that ?
2.Utube
The easiest and cheapest way of boosting Mirror Neurons by
usage at present .
See Appendix D .
Take flaxseed oil (Omega 3) with it . You need the building
blocks .
Real mentors are expensive and scarce .
Virtual avatars of hyperreal mentors are still a bit in the
future .
Use a plain mirror and a book and/or verbal instruction if
no computer .
An Interesting aside :
The earliest mirror was a bowl of still water . The earliest
bowl was a watertight woven basin . Then came ceramics . Compound mirrors where
the bowl was black to maximise mirror effect came next . A type of “glazing” .
Sadly , only fragments remain . Not just
for women : essential for shaving if you did not want to scalp yourself with a
hypersharp flint razor .
3.Juggling
A good illustration of Mirror Neurons . Very quick to learn
if a mentor teaches it , visibly .
Otherwise , reinventing the wheel . Actually a good analogue
of civilization .
A person with difficulty learning juggling from mentor ,
will have difficulty being civilized . (He Cannot learn)
See Appendix C .
4. Transcranial Random Noise Stimulation (TRNS)
A bit more high-tech , but it has the virtue that it is passive
and fairly quick .
See Appendix B .
See also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochastic_resonance
and previous posts .
A favourite with biological systems .
5.There are many others , but these are measures that can be
taken right now .
6.Visual Acuity :
Blind juggling .
This can be done . See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWYC3RmimoU
The body skin sensors instead of the visual senses are used
to train the system to form a mirror image of the juggling balls .
Eventually they are dispensed with .
In general , Mirror Neurons are not dependant on visual
acuity for effectiveness.
But it helps
The frame-forming effect on peripheral vision of spectacles
will make things more interesting .
7.Tai Chi
Use a mentor (expensive) or join a group . All involve
mirror neurons .
But utube can be used . See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPU4muYW14Y
Trying it from a book
is reinventing the wheel , and not very effective (by about 3 orders of
magnitude)
8.Transcendental Meditation ™
A method of mirror neuron entrainment by watching the
sub-vocalizations of the mentor . For which you have to pay .
The sub-vocalizations are seen in the neck at subliminal
level in the neck . Which is why all the luxuriant beards .
Ironically , the brick turned out to be real gold .
Random Mantras .
One-pad encryption to the Infinite .
See Appendix E . Just randomize the elements . Every day
. It doesn’t matter .
Watch your neck in the mirror vocalizing a random mantra .
That’s it .

Transcranial Random Noise Stimulation (TRNS)
May 16, 2013 — In the future, if you want to improve your
ability to manipulate numbers in your head, you might just plug yourself in. So
say researchers who report in the Cell Press journal Current Biology on May 16
on studies of a harmless form of brain stimulation applied to an area known to
be important for math ability.
"With just five days of cognitive training and
noninvasive, painless brain stimulation, we were able to bring about
long-lasting improvements in cognitive and brain functions," says Roi
Cohen Kadosh of the University of Oxford.
Incredibly, the improvements held for a period of six months
after training. No one knows exactly how this relatively new method of
stimulation, called transcranial random noise stimulation (TRNS), works. But
the researchers say the evidence suggests that it allows the brain to work more
efficiently by making neurons fire more synchronously.
Cohen Kadosh and his colleagues had shown previously that
another form of brain stimulation could make people better at learning and
processing new numbers. But, he says, TRNS is even less perceptible to those
receiving it. TRNS also has the potential to help even more people. That's
because it has been shown to improve mental arithmetic -- the ability to add,
subtract, or multiply a string of numbers in your head, for example -- not just
new number learning. Mental arithmetic is a more complex and challenging task,
which more than 20 percent of people struggle with.
Ultimately, Cohen Kadosh says, with better integration of
neuroscience and education, this line of study could really help humans reach
our cognitive potential in math and beyond. It might also be of particular help
to those suffering with neurodegenerative illness, stroke, or learning
difficulties.
"Maths is a highly complex cognitive faculty that is
based on a myriad of different abilities," Cohen Kadosh says. "If we
can enhance mathematics, therefore, there is a good chance that we will be able
to enhance simpler cognitive functions."

General
“Susan, I do have a question for you — I am a pretty good
juggler already…if I spent 10 minutes a day for like 3 times a week, would it
make a difference in the type of work that I do?”
Her response to his question was:
“Yes, juggling for just a few minutes a day will help you be
more creative, make faster decisions, and have more access to more of your
brain. Take a juggling break when you need to brainstorm something new and
creative. It is excellent for building creativity. Try learning a new juggling
trick, or juggling higher, behind the back, etc. Be sure to juggle in from of
your son–it is good for his mirror neurons!”

Lightweight Si/SiC mirrors of nominal diameter 7.5 cm have
been fabricated via a scalable and rapid, chemical vapor deposition (CVD)
process to demonstrate the CVD mirror fabrication technology. These mirrors
consist of a faceplate of either Si or Si‐coated SiC and a lightweight
backstructure made of either Si or SiC. The mirrors were polished to a figure
better than 1/5th of a wave at 0.6328 Å and a finish of better than 10 Å rms. A
procedure for fabricating these mirrors is described. The CVD fabrication
process is fast and has the potential to yield several mirrors in a few weeks
time from a single reactor. The CVD mirror fabrication technology is quite
general and can be extended to include mirrors of other ceramic materials such
as TiB2 and B4C.

Generate a random Mantra .
The TM technique is simple mental repetition of a
"mantra" or word. The TM movement claims that only specific
"words" can be used. They claim that the selection of words is based
upon a secret formula. Court documents have shed some light on this
"secret" process. It is nothing other than a set of words given out
by age, and/or age and sex, depending on the teacher training course the TM
teacher attended.
The TM-Sidhi program is nothing other than a set of sutras (words or
phrases), mentally repeated every fifteen seconds after doing a twenty minute
session of TM. Each sutra is repeated twice, with a 15 second pause in between
each repetition.

The "levitation" or "flying"
technique, now known as "Yogic Flying," is used in the same way as
all other sutras:
"Relationship of body and akasha -
lightness of cotton fiber."
This phrase is mentally repeated every fifteen
seconds after doing a twenty minute session of TM. Each sutra is mentally
repeated twice (if time allows 4 times), with a 15 second pause in between each
repetition.
After doing the flying sutra for 5-30 minutes,
the instruction is to rest for 10-30 minutes and then read the Hindu Scriptures
for 5 minutes.
An example of the readings (from the Ninth
Mandala of Rig Veda):
Flow Soma, in a most sweet and exhilarating
stream, effused for Indra to drink. The all-beholding destroyer of Rakshasas
has stepped upon his gold-smitten birthplace, united with the wooden cask. Be
the lavish giver of wealth, most bounteous, the destroyer of enemies; bestow on
us the riches of the affluent. Come with food to the sacrifice of the mighty
gods, and bring us strength and sustenance. To thee we come, O dropping (Soma);
for thee only is this our worship day by day, our prayers are to thee, none
other.
