Module #6: An Overview
"The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing."
- Socrates
Socrates' famous quote above is like a "Zen koan" of ancient Greece. It's a humble reminder that in the vast sea of knowledge, acknowledging our ignorance is the first step toward genuine wisdom. It encourages us to remain open-minded and curious, continually seeking knowledge, while understanding the limitations of what we can truly comprehend.
In essence, it's the wisdom of intellectual humility, reminding us that learning is a lifelong journey, and there's always more to discover.
唯一の真の知恵は、自分が何も知らないことを知ることです。
-ソクラテス
上記のソクラテスの有名な言葉は、古代ギリシャの「禅の公案」のようなものです。 これは、広大な知識の海において、自分の無知を認めることが真の知恵への第一歩であることを謙虚に思い出させてくれるものです。
それは、私たちが真に理解できることの限界を理解しながら、心を開いて好奇心を持ち、継続的に知識を求め続けることを奨励します。
本質的に、それは知的謙虚さの知恵であり、学習は生涯にわたる旅であり、常に発見すべきことが常にあることを思い出させてくれます。

Rest with Ray Nelson at 8 o’clock In The Morning
Yes, another rest day with absolutely nothing to do but JUST chill out or read and listen to Ray Nelson’s classic short story that inspired the cult movie “They Live.”
A one-time collaborator* of PKDick, Ray Nelson was a cartoonist and writer of the above titled 1963 short story. The central character, a homeless drifter called Nada* awakes from hypnosis and sees reality in all its naked glory: Revelation, earth ruled by yellow-eyed, reptilian-like alien invaders, brainwashing, paranoia, mind control, gruesome murders, government corruption.
Nelson sure packed a lot into 5 pages.
Click here to read and listen to the first 3 minutes.
* He co-wrote the novel entitled ‘The Ganymede Takeover.’
* In Spanish: Nothing
* The basis of the 1988 film They Live
