- Love and Expression -- The Rubinshteinic Priority On Self Love
(Background music) "regret nothing that has ever resulted in present you, if you love yourself, and what you've become" -- John Duran A World Craving Connection -- How It Deludes Itself Do you know what I think the world lacks the most? It is love. Not romantic, marital, or patriotic love, but love for your fellow human beings. But most importantly, is the love for yourself. A resilent, rational self love. It is, so it seems, far easier to engage in violence, loathing, and intentional arrogance than it is to try to overcome any of these concepts, in the name of unity. We also seek power over others... only to still find ourselves, lonely at the top. To quote Mr. John Duran : "A true leader does not seek leadership but rejects it if possible, and only carries the burdens of commanding others if there is no better choice for the good of all" For no amount of connection, affection or attachment, can compensate working on ourselves, so we would become better versions of ourselves. No love, no escapism. No hedonism. No organization of any kind. If we think connections with others will compensate our inner voids, we will stupidly find ourselves disappointed, heartbreak after heartbreak . For, in the end, no matter whom comes with us, or stands in our way, the only company we have the most... is our own. Loneliness is a universal phenomenon, solvable only by the individual. It can truly be solved when he or she actually works to love themselves.... regardless of whether or not they are relevant or loved by anyone... Thinking otherwise, was my mistake. So, I will redeem my faulty ways by altruism . And I do not expect to be recognized for my efforts, any longer. I will... contribute, either way. Whether or not I'll be loved or deemed worthy, it matters not. I don't need your validation. I will manage myself, either way. I will work towards my purpose, no matter who would walk in my path, or refuse to cooperate. I will endure. It is vain to use anything as a justification for petty incitements, hate, and crimes against those who think differently than yourself. You are allowed to think differently. They are allowed to think differently. Anyone is allowed to lead their own lives the way they want to. To divide and conquer isn't a good method... as it keeps people under the illusion that conflict against others will ge them what they want... No. The love and appreciation we seek can be granted, not by opposing nor controlling others. Not even by wanting others to change for us. No. Both, at their most rational state, come from the inside. For we only have ourselves in this world to share life, the most. Others... are nothing more than mere travelers. And if we wish to be loved, we must love ourselves. We mustn't be weak. We mustn't be petty. We mustn't seek the mercy of others . No. We must nurture an inner strength within us. Whether or not others will love us, is only, and only, their own prerogative. We... best live either way. We must be self-propelled beacons, that may sometimes attract others, and sometimes do not. We better not blame others, most of all, on our own petty weaknesses. After all, it is our duty to work on them ourselves. Love requires effort, and of course, the same goes for self-love. That is the thing that is overlooked. The fact that you need to actively nurture it within yourself, towards the world, but most importantly towards yourself, is the only way it can eventually... turn natural. However, when you are permitted to feel and express yourself in any way you like, hate is a far easier tool in communication than love is. For when you love yourself for who you are, you become unhindered by the approval of others. You become stronger than them. For you don't even need them to feel anything about you. Then, very little can actually stand in your way. Ruthlessness is a virtue , because it allows you to disregard whatever needs to be disregarded, in the name of your success. And with love comes great confidence and appreciation in your abilities. Appreciation that does not depend on petty external approval. You do not need to be approved for who you are. You are who you are, either way. As democracies emerged, and dictatorships were seen as primitive and outdated, people were granted the sacred freedom to express themselves, without the fear of being either arrested, tortured, or killed. Love, if anything, is a most dangerous tool for those who are hungry for power. For they want you not to love yourself, and thus allow yourself to be more than your own limits. No. The power hungry want you to be in line, to be oppressed, and depraved of your humanity. They want to use you for their own gain, regardless of what you really feel. Love yourself too much for their own good, and you become a problem. All because you refuse to yield to the opression of the orthodox paths . The same paths that do not care for you. The same paths whose love for yourself matters not. Therefore, the expression of love -- of true love -- of unconditional love -- threatens societal structure. For societal structure is built to opress the individual and not nurture him or her. For discarding the nurture of our individuality, and its self-appreciation, independent of externalities.... the external world deserves to be discarded at large. For it does not really love us. The only being who can certainly love themselves, is ourselves. That will only occur when we express our love to ourselves. And that, is the key to reducing many, many of our agonies. For we think endless desires will fulfill them. Such expectations... are mere delusions. In a World of Thorns, Where Does Love Bloom? In the eyes of many others, who use us for their own gain, why should they care, to nurture love within our hearts, when they will live either way? It doesn't matter who you are—as long as people will choose apathy towards others, they might as wel be filled with hatred for each other, as if it's an eternal reality. Why... why should we enable that external reality, within our internal worlds? Why should even, depend our inner core, on such things, which are beyond our control? Some thrive in this environment, their blissful ignorance a shield, from the reality of their loneliness. Others are intimidated as their sensitivities too sharp for the constant friction of carelessness. And then there are those, perhaps few, who seek refuge in hermitage, withdrawing from the world's toxicity, for they know, and refuse, for it to be their own. For them external love... is unnecessary, found only in the pockets of opportunities. Pockets of genuine appreciation that exist between... very few individuals. How many of us... are willing to appreciate and admire someone, regardless of who they are, what they will do, and what they might become? Hehehe... If anything... all conditional love, if but a form of weakness. Of compensation. Of refusing to handle ourselves like ourselves deserve. For we better do it, and do it with love. As people become divided by their distinguished views, they fuel further hatred, further displeasure and further disorder. No one can stop their obsessive quest in the external world... for something they can fulfill within their own internal worlds. In a democratic framework, every person is entitled to feel and express whatever they want, regardless of the impact on others' hearts and minds. As such, people are allowed to not care. By not handling ourselves, and embracing the liberty that is the right of another to disregard us... we also are allowed to delude ourselves. Delude ourselves, that the disregard of another, should even matter to us, objectively. The greatest enemy of unitary love—the love for all human beings—is not hate, anger, or detesting, is the refusal for another to be who they are. The refusal to let them, be who they want to be. Be, who they think they should be. Much human suffering and toxicity... stems from wanting to change another, as a prerequisite for our own internal good. Insensitivity is a privilege, allowing one to rarely be insulted and to endure long periods of conflict with the world. Insensitivity is a shield that allows us to be who we want to be, regardless of external thought and validation (or lack thereof). And without a compelling reason to love ourselves, why should we even act according to our own genuine needs and desires ? We can choose not to hate ourselves. We can choose to understand that, despite being social to whatever extent, there exists a self beyond any collective framework. And that self deserves to be loved. And it can be loved, regardless of anyone, but your own approval of yourself.
- When Accidents Benefit The Victim -- Savant Syndrome Analysis (Featuring a Savant)
(Philosocom's Directory on Luck) (Nathan Lasher's Articles) Alex Mos's Synopsis Savant syndrome is a rare neurological condition in which an intellectual impairment makes a person highly gifted in specific areas. A severe head injury can cause savant syndrome, transforming the victim for the better. The anonymous man is an acquired savant, sharing in this article how Savant syndrome positively affected his intellectual capacity. According to him, being a Savant means developing hypersensitivity in different areas, including your own cognitive features. Introduction Savant syndrome is a rare, insufficiently-explained neurological condition that is caused by head injury. However, it has other forms of development as well ( some linked to autism ). It is an intellectual impairment that ironically makes a specific area/s within your intelligence become extremely gifted, compared to your other areas of your intellect. It is divided into two variations: One that is congenital (genetic or inborn), or can be acquired later in childhood, or even in adults. It is not clear how much of the global population is savant, and I am not sure if I myself am one, although I used to suspect it. Case Example An anonymous man who will be this article's case example, is an acquired savant. He also provided much insight for this article to be written. One day, he had a car accident in January 2022. To quote him in our discourse: I lost control and went off road and flipped 3 times where I ended up hanging upside down for over 30 minutes and suffered a stroke. The aftermath of that was a month long hospital stay and due to there having been alcohol in my system I got in trouble for it. I also lost my spleen while in the hospital, screwed my eye muscle up, still not back to 100% but close. I knowed a tooth out, temporarily damaging my jaw. Broke L1-L4. All and all best thing that could have happened to me. The "logical thing" to say that it's absurd to see such a horrible event as lofty. However, that would only be true in most cases. In some cases, this horrible injury can unlock something within you. Something that already exists deep inside, but sleeps without disturbance. For most of us, this vast cognitive potential will lay dormant for the rest of our lives, forever locked. Due to the lack of a unified theory regarding this rare syndrome, it is not quite known why such injuries transform a person for the better. However, acquired savant syndrome is proof of a concept called post-traumatic growth . It cancels the notion that all trauma leads to pure misfortune, and dismisses it as a generalization. As such, sufferers of past trauma might not necessarily need psychological treatment, when they have the inner potential within them, to transform for the better. Psychologists are there to solve our problems. However, misfortune does not necessarily lead to a greater misfortune, even if in many, if not most cases it does. We therefore should, in the name of truth, see events as more intricate than a mere dichotomy of positive and negative. Perhaps both positivity and negativity embedded in events should be embraced generally , not discarded or desired individually. After all, all past events lead to who we are today, and to what might become of us. The man told me how his giftedness affected him: Savant syndrome typically surfaces when someone has developmental problems yet is still extremely gifted in one faceset of intelligence. typically seen in music, art, and math. Mine sadly only have to do with intra and interpersonal areas; Kind of happenstance that I already had both. The remarkable thing was due to the sudden emergence of gains in intellectual capacity it actually gave my other intelligences more room to work with. They are in relation to the sensitivity expressed in autism. The brain injury expanded that sensitivity to include intelligence and even more emotion. Both were things I could never do before. Leads to something nobody ever thought was possible: Someone getting it with already higher intelligence. He continues: So some peculiar gifts I have noticed is the fact I can fully sense and discern intelligence, assuming I have access to their verbal and non verbal in person. . It's not that I'm a walking IQ test, though I can usually ball park into a pretty accurate range, but more so I can sense intellectual capacity. Due to autism my gifts are in relation to hypersensitivity Wherever that ability came from it is splinter as hell. Due to having such control over my own emotions I had them pretty suppressed in a physiological sense. This made me rely on cognitive empathy, which is nothing more than learned empathy that doesn't rely on emotions. Surprise my body now possesses the ability to translate that cognition and emotional empathy, and very bearable levels. I can actually tell exactly what people are feeling, extreme abstract cognitive features and again right now splinter. Would it be cheating if I became a therapist? From this we can conclude a very important, underrated insight: The same disorder affects people differently. And undoubtedly, different people that may become savants, will develop differently as a result. This is true not only in such psychological/developmental disorders but also in medical conditions as well. For example, I am asthmatic but it's hard to understand that as my asthma is silent. Post Publication Notes Finally, the anonymous man adds the following comments: Acquired Savant Syndrome is many things. Please be aware that most of what I am saying isn't based on anything that I learned. I discovered it all for myself. It is my efforts to see if I can't apply what I know to make a unified theory on it. This may also be hugely due to my intelligence which please be aware of its limitations. I may have a deep understanding of a few things but that does not mean I magically learned all the vocabulary to accompany that understanding. F irst and foremost. How am I able to do such amazing things? What nobody has been able to figure out about savant. It is a medical condition but not a bad one. Being Savant is simply having hypersensitivity to everything including yourself and your own cognitive features. The reason why nobody can see the difference is because they are assuming everyone's cognitive features are the same. Can a musical savant not be explained, using the idea that a person's cognitive feature relating to auditory processing might be different than other people, and all of a sudden they are super sensitive to it? It does not add to your intelligence, just simply makes you more sensitive to the cognitive gifts which your brain possesses. So it is not a sudden genius, it is a sudden expression of intelligence. The reason nobody can figure out why it is expressed so differently among people is because nobody included the idea of intelligence and genetics into it. All that people witness is very large amounts of intelligence directed at a certain thing. I can explain why. Every person's cognitive features are different as a result of how genetics structure them. Cognitive features are nothing more than how gray matter forms in the brain. They are ways in which your intelligence can express itself with. Why some people are more intellectually gifted in ways is only a result of how these features are formed. They have very little to do with the intelligence you have and more to do with tools which your intelligence has to work with. This is the reason why most people's IQ's are only around 100 . Their genetics simply didn't allow for more advanced cognitive features to form. Extra Material To finish this article and therefore conclude the induction of this intellect to my organization of authors, I will attempt at answering 4 of his questions to me: 1. If bi-polar is a mood disorder did I in sense "beat it" as far as a mental illness by having my emotions in check? 2. What are some "powers" of "magical thinking"? I'm just so used to it that it is just normal to me. 3. Is there a way to harness excitement? 4. If you could make any changes to this world, what would they be? No. 1: It is certainly possible to beat back bi-polar disorder. It can done by reducing stress and focusing on rest and sleep. No. 2: To quote Britannica : " Magical thinking , the belief that one’s ideas, thoughts, actions, words, or use of symbols can influence the course of events in the material world. Magical thinking presumes a causal link between one’s inner, personal experience and the external physical world." I have explained my thoughts when I disproved the law of attraction and questioned the arcane. No. 3: All emotions are energy and given that we have some degree of control over ourselves we can definitely harness excitement just like we can harness revenge and other emotions. A good way to do it is to understand that emotions are pawns. No. 4: If to truly quote Gandhi : “If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change.” Changing ourselves, getting greater authority in what we do, and leading by example, can influence the world through our own actions. To understand how I want to change the world, you need to know why I changed myself, and became dead inside.

He argues that genius emerges from the ability to use multiple quotients simultaneously, typically a blend of IQ and EQ. Genius involves creativity and effective utilization of diverse cognitive skills, not just high IQ . Mr. Lasher also discusses the hereditary nature of certain talents and suggests that mental illnesses can coexist with high intelligence . He believes anyone can cultivate genius by nurturing imagination and creativity, suggesting practical steps like imagining various uses for unfamiliar objects and recording personal experiences. There is a different expression of intelligence which most people are unaware of. Most people understand intelligence as a representation of IQ, intelligence quotient, and they understand EQ, emotional quotient, which is how well you handle your emotions . What people aren’t as aware of is SQ , social quotient , and XQ , experiential quotient. It is the different quotients which combined demonstrates a human's overall abilities. Social quotient is how well you perform in various social situations or in other words your social abilities. Experiential deals with a person learning through their experiences as well as knowing what to do with what they know. A person with high XQ can utilize their knowledge gained from experience to determine the paths to take in the future. You can view the four main quotients as expressions of intelligence. Where the idea of savant comes in, is all of a sudden being able to use one or more of the expressions. This is usually the result of the cognitive features a person has which is why savant skills are generally very broad. You enter the world of genius when you start to use multiple quotients at the same time. Typically a genius will be a combination of IQ and EQ. What happens when you are divergent and a little bit of them all? Why are people more interested in borderline individuals than actual geniuses? The thing which combines all different quotients is intelligence using each in order to express itself. You turn towards unique abilities when you discuss the semantics of distinctions in neuroanatomy. For instance, a person who processes sound differently might be drawn towards music. Every person’s brain is a little different, but generally, most people’s brains are seen as regular due to most people's genetics being the same. Intelligence is simply the ability to use what is available to you in an effective way. This means that intelligence is dependent upon availability of cognitive skills. It also has to do with being aware of said cognitive features. As most people do not possess, say, the cognitive features for increased sound processing, this would result in someone with the potential to be gifted in music to be born. Why music often runs in families? It could also have to do with other bodily functions. As vocal cords are also hereditary , it would make sense why children of musicians end up getting into music themselves. What separates highly intellectual people from geniuses? Genius can be both a noun and a verb. In the verb sense, I think everyone is capable of acting and thinking like a genius (If not a mastermind). I am now referring to it as a noun: People who don’t need to try and act like a genius because they are one. The simple act of them performing any action will result in their genius being expressed. Take this article for instance. I myself am writing this all in a few attempts. The only reason I need to reread what I wrote is to see what I have already said. Though most of this article was written on my first attempt, so this article should act as a representative to my own intelligence. So, what makes a highly intelligent person is typically someone who focuses solely on IQ . I don’t discredit Mensa-like individuals for their importance as we need people like this in the world. I just feel as though that is one club which has a narrow view of what intelligence is. What if our job was simply coming up with ideas which individuals with high IQ’s can determine how to utilize. I say high IQ’s because as far as gifted in concerned we need those borderline types to help translate us to the world. Mr. Tomasio does a good job of that for me. He is a very effective editor/"translator". He is like google translate for intelligence. Now, Let’s talk about what gifted actually means. Gifted is nothing more than being different from most people and it refers to people who have self actualized it and applied being different as a part of themselves. That is why being gifted isn’t limited to IQ. What, then, separates genius from gifted? I believe XQ represents the scale which separates highly intelligent from genius . Experiential intelligence is when you learn through experience. I can’t be told what to do or how to do it. Now I do what I have done in the past and liked while avoiding those things which I have done which have brought about negativity with them. Thus, XQ utilizes photographic memory as one aspect of it. I will almost always remember an experience I had which had positive emotions attached to it. Most people will admit a doctor is smart. Smart being nothing more than a noun to describe someone like a status symbol . Smart is about memorizing and using knowledge effectively. Between me having different expressions than most people I often was left out of the herd mentality. I’m a pandora’s box of various mental illnesses, yet most of them have symptoms which can get annoying so I choose to stay medicated to deal with some of the symptoms. My spelling became horrible and I occasionally have difficulty keeping all my own thoughts organized. But both things don’t fully impact me most of the time. Just occasionally have hiccups. I did have a point in bringing up mental illnesses: Through the happenstance of having the experiences that I had with the genetics that I have, I went out and experienced life nonetheless. Sadly, at the time I had been dealing with some neurological damage, I was unable to process any of my experiences. For those 20 years of neurological damage, I didn’t take time to process my experiences as they were happening or even after. I was always on to the next thing. This is the reason why I don’t construct problems in my own mind, meaning I don’t see things as problems ever. Is anything ever seriously a problem when you can imagine how to do anything with any particular thing? I exist in a world of possibilities. I’m learning the lesson of determining which possibility to pursue. I want to do them all but only just met someone, Mr. Tomasio, who is intelligent enough to figure out how to put my words into actions. I hope one day our work will diversify beyond articles. I believe the separation between gifted and intelligent is as simple as imagination. I am not saying every child is a genius. What I am saying is children are using their own brains like a genius does, by tapping into their creative sides and inventing whole worlds in their own minds. At what point do adults stop using their imaginations? Geniuses are good at imagining things in the right way. Though this does raise a good question: Is imagination what separates a highly intelligent person from a genius? What if the education system also included a part on utilizing one's imagination effectively? There is the secret to genius: A person with different cognitive features which can utilize creativity. I can thank a few parts of my genetics for being able to do just that. A test theory for you: Next time you come across something you are unfamiliar with, try and imagine all the things you can do with it. Don’t worry if your answers are right or wrong. Simply appreciate the creativity that you could have. What makes a genius is someone who leans more towards the right/correct side with their thoughts. I can imagine what is possible because my polymathy and experiential intelligence are able to use all my past knowledge to dictate where something can go. Actions speak louder than words is how it goes I believe. So, the advice I will give is this: if anyone wants to start thinking like a genius all they have to do is nurture their imagination. Imagination is a by-product of the brain. You nurture it by adding content to it for it to use. Genius thoughts don’t come from nowhere even though they possess the ability to use creativity to come up with possible solutions to things. I don’t regret any experience that I have had. My point to all this is to explain the importance of evaluating your experiences. After all, we can all act like we have polymathy by learning as much as possible . You never know when you can use it. Perhaps I would even recommend recording every experience you have. Think of it like blogging. This puts the experience out there and can cause open discussion to help you process each of them. We as humans should make processing experiences a group activity. It makes the experience real by making other people aware of it. Otherwise, what good are actions if nobody knows about them? That is the way the world moves and things "become real" . Sharing an experience makes it more objective which is the point of philosophy I believe: To make things more objective. I was never identified as a genius because my actions never reflected it. So, I spent my entire life unaware of it. Discovering it at age 35 has given me a first hand perspective of what it actually is: Genius is not a status symbol. It simply means that your brain processes things differently than most people. You process things through creative eyes. If you want to think like a genius, work on creative thinking . Anyone can learn to be a genius. However, it would involve changing a person's fundamentals which is not an easy task for most people. The thing which ultimately helped me learn control was golfing. Is it possible to be a savant in a sport? If so, then why savantism have to be limited to art or music? I get why it is primarily seen in those areas. If you had an explosion of creativity happen you probably would as well. As I did have intelligence to accompany the savant within me, I have decided to express it in the written word . I figured out the best way to talk about the savant and intelligence thing was to do it through my actions. Producing my content into an article seemed to be the best expression of intelligence which I could think of. I have some minor neurological damage when I speak. I get the occasional stutter which most people don’t place much value in because of how slow I must speak. My fingers on the other hand are not impacted with this problem, and can type without a stutter.
