    … "Wenn ich also das Ergebnis meiner Untersuchung in knappster Form zusammenfassen müsste, so ergäbe sich etwa Folgendes: Energie ist eine Urkraft unbekannter Herkunft mit einem ungeheuren Differenzierungspotenzial. 'Tote' wie lebende Materie ist zunehmend raffiniert organisierte Energie. Das organisierende Prinzip ist der Weltgeist, ein grenzenloses abstraktes Potenzial von Kombinationsmöglichkeiten, welche im Lauf der Evolution vom Big Bang bis heute immer differenzierter realisiert und materialisiert worden sind. Aspekte des Weltgeists werden von lebendigen Organismen sukzessive entdeckt und genutzt. Sowohl der Weltgeist wie auch die Energie können wahlweise als göttlichen oder natürlichen Ursprungs aufgefasst werden."
    
    … "So if I had to summarize the result of my investigation in the briefest form, it would be something like the following: energy is a primal force of unknown origin with a tremendous potential for differentiation. 'Dead' and living matter is increasingly sophisticatedly organized energy. The organizing principle is the world spirit, a limitless abstract potential of possible combinations, which has been realized and materialized in an increasingly differentiated way in the course of evolution from the Big Bang to the present day. Aspects of the world spirit are successively discovered and utilized by living organisms. Both the world spirit and the energy can be understood to be either of divine or natural origin."

    What we learn when an anthropologist and a historian talk about food. 
     
     
      
    From the origins of agriculture to contemporary debates over culinary authenticity, Ways of Eating introduces listeners to world food history and food anthropology. Through engaging stories and historical deep dives, Benjamin A. Wurgaft and Merry I. White offer new ways to understand food in relation to its natural and cultural histories and the social rules that shape our meals. 
     
     
      
    Wurgaft and White use vivid storytelling to bring food practices to life, weaving stories of Panamanian coffee growers, medieval women beer makers, and Japanese knife forgers. From the Venetian spice trade to the Columbian Exchange, from Roman garum to Vietnamese nuoc cham, Ways of Eating provides an absorbing account of world food history and anthropology. Migration, politics, and the dynamics of group identity all shape what we eat, and we can learn to trace these social forces from the plate to the kitchen, the factory, and the field.

    A World Unbroken explores an alternate history in which humanity never faced the devastation of plague. Through a series of deeply researched and humanized chapters, the book examines how uninterrupted population growth, stable communities, and the absence of mass mortality would have shaped every aspect of society, science, and culture. From art and architecture to law, migration, and the environment, each chapter delves into the ways in which continuity, rather than crisis, would have influenced the evolution of human experience. The narrative weaves together the threads of hope, fear, ambition, and innovation, offering a compelling vision of a world where progress is steady, traditions are preserved, and new challenges arise from abundance rather than loss.

    1.Relationship without image is love 
    Relationship means action and movement. 
    Without understanding the totality of human relationship we live in conflict, however intimate we may be. 
    When there is knowledge as image in relationship there is conflict. 
    2.The meaning of life pleasure and fear 
    "Is life a mere struggle within and without; laborious, painful, anxious, and then death? 
    What place has thought and what is the structure of thinking? 
    Pleasure is the continuance of an incident which is dead, past. Thought pursues that incident which becomes pleasure. 
    3.Order love and death 
    In our life there is very little order. 
    Most of us conform, which is the very essence of disorder. 
    We conform because we want to succeed inwardly or outwardly; success to us is the most important thing in life. 
    Order and virtue come with the understanding of disorder. 
    4.Religion and meditation 
    What part does religion play in one’s life? 
    How do you know that you or anyone has attained enlightenment or reached the highest form of religious thought? 
    How can a mind which is always in conflict within itself find that which has never been in conflict? 
    In inquiring into meditation, do not follow anybody. 
    Meditation is a daily life in which there is no control whatsoever. 
    When dealing with psychological facts, is the observer different from the thing observed? 
    A certain part of the brain can function efficiently only when it has total order, security. 
    The moment you are aware you are silent it is not silence. 
    Silence is the highest order. 
    In silence, parts of the brain which have not been occupied become totally active. 
     
    Questions from the audience followed the talk.
