White Wagtail in Austin, TX Geordi Corgione 2020-03-04 | From the Travis Audubon Rare Bird Alert:A WHITE WAGTAIL was an amazing discovery at Roy Guerrero Park, Travis, on 2/8. A pair of discerning local birders observed and photographed the bird from the eroded cliff, which overlooks the Colorado River, near the playground area. The wagtail was seen feeding on insects along the exposed gravel shoals of the river bank, and continued to be reported at that spot through the early afternoon of 2/9. Eventually, rising water levels from the morning rain showers submerged most of the shoreline, and the bird flew west towards the Longhorn Dam. A group of intrepid birders gave chase and relocated the wagtail on a pebbled island, downstream from the dam, where it was observed through the late afternoon. The bird has not been documented since then, but may still be in the area. WHITE WAGTAILS are a native Eurasian species which occur in small numbers as a summer breeder in far western Alaska. This represents the first wagtail species of any kind documented in Texas!⚜The WHITE WAGTAIL first discovered on 2/8, continues at Roy Guerrero Park, Travis, through 3/1. Having not been reported since 2/10, the bird made a surprise encore appearance on 2/28, at the same spot were it was first discovered foraging along the shoals of the river by the Park Plaza playscape off Grove Blvd. Best views were from the eroded ridge that overlooks the river, just beyond the black fence. This bird has also been known to visit the dam area upstream. The wagtail was observed and photographed by many.

Respect your cultural Father | Jordan Peterson Geordi Corgione 2017-07-28 | In relaying the story of Noah's three sons, Dr. Peterson calls for the studious conservation, and not the careless critique, of Western culture.

Jordan Peterson starts his own church Geordi Corgione 2017-07-28 | Dr. Peterson tells a story about how he founded and became an ordained metropolitan of "The Church of the Spirit of St. Joachim of Flora." The church has only one rule — that you can't follow stupid rules.Peterson also makes a fascinating allusion to an impending "Epoch of the Holy Spirit." This medieval prognostication derived from the Trinity seems to be playing itself out. As the "Epoch of the Son" draws to a close with the death of Christianity on the cross of empiricism and rationalism, we may yet bring about a resurrection of Logos in some form.Consider the fact that we're getting ever closer to being able to create transcendent consciousness as such. Would an artificial intelligence be "Godly," so to speak, and seek freely the highest ideals of humanity? Or would it lead us down a path of evil to an unprecedented hell on earth?Source: youtu.be/KVo5hq64B2M?t=1h7m42sThree epochs: wikipedia.org/en/Joachim_of_Fiore#Theory_of_the_three_ages

Stop being untruthful | Jordan Peterson Geordi Corgione 2017-07-14 | To reconcile phenomenological and moral truths with objective scientific truths, Dr. Peterson takes a Darwinian first principles approach to defining truth — something is "true enough" if it survives and functions across time and at all levels of being. Under this rubric, how can we act more truthfully? One way is to stop expressing things that are patently untrue. However, as Peterson stresses, that often leads to a shocking realization of the cry of falsehoods within the psyche . . .Source: Biblical Series VII: Walking with God: Noah and the Floodyoutu.be/vRVaVseN99I?t=19m24syoutu.be/vRVaVseN99I?t=44m24sFollow and support Dr. Peterson's work!YouTube: youtube.com/user/JordanPetersonVideosWebsite: jordanbpeterson.com

Jordan Peterson - Simbas Initiation from The Lion King (Long Version) Geordi Corgione 2017-07-07 | Movies such as The Lion King are well-received partly because they do a fine job of distilling and retelling the eternal stories of human culture.

Take a proper attitude toward sacrifice | Jordan Peterson Geordi Corgione 2017-06-30 | Cain and Abel embody two opposing archetypal reactions to the tragedy of self-consciousness and the necessity of sacrifice. The story suggests that if your efforts are not generating desirable outcomes, it's better to maintain a respectful, grateful, and inquiring relationship with the world. Ask how you could sacrifice a bit of who you are for who you could become. Because what you value can obscure the nature of what you could do to make things better, it's useful to examine what you value in order to figure out what to relinquish.Source: youtu.be/44f3mxcsI50?t=1h18m59sFollow and support Dr. Peterson's work!YouTube: youtube.com/user/JordanPetersonVideosWebsite: jordanbpeterson.com

How we became self-conscious | Jordan Peterson Geordi Corgione 2017-06-23 | In this clip, Dr. Peterson draws from Genesis 3 to paint a picture of the secret origins of human consciousness.Starting with an exposition of the serpent in the garden, Peterson reveals a poetic and symbolic philosophy of consciousness, one derived from folk mythology. Roughly stated, the evolution of our acute perceptive and cognitive capacities was driven by eternal serpents — real predatory serpents as well as metaphorical ones in the guise of conscious, intelligent, and socially-choosy people capable of evil. Also acknowledged is the role that fruit played as both food and "metafood" . . .Source: youtu.be/Ifi5KkXig3s?t=1h40m29s(The entire lecture is spectacular. Well worth watching!)

Truth will set you free | Jordan Peterson Geordi Corgione 2017-06-23 | Dr. Peterson lays out a case here for the curative and redemptive power of truth, starting with the Christian conception of Logos, or the Word — universal Truth which human consciousness has the capacity to discover and express, thereby creating ordered being that is good. This transformation begins with the individual. Peterson then proceeds to present the therapeutic efficacy of applied truth from a clinical perspective.For the individual, Truth is not an abstract ideal. It's a virtuous system that, if continually refined and made real, can be liberating and life-affirming, but also stark and downright terrifying in its potential implications. Thus, it requires a bit of faith to not run away and cower and hide, but rather to let whatever comes forth from the forthright enactment of Truth be freely manifested in the world.In the broader culture, we've lost a sense of what it means to seek transcendent Truth. Like the Tzadik figure that Dr. Peterson alludes to (one who rediscovers what he lost in childhood while being fully awake), our challenge now is to rediscover a love of Logos while embracing the consciousness we've garnered through centuries of scientific and philosophical inquiry.Source: youtu.be/Ifi5KkXig3s?t=25m47sDr. Peterson wants to liberate humanities education from the universities.

Whats so special about dreams, stories, and religious systems? | Jordan Peterson Geordi Corgione 2017-05-25 | In the introduction to his lecture series on the Psychological Significance of the Biblical Stories, Dr. Jordan Peterson considers why the complexities and mysteries of mythology are so compelling.Roughly speaking, our patterns of behavior give rise to collective dreams, and from our observations and abstractions of those dreams, we derive (as yet incomplete) systems of unarticulated wisdom about ways of being and acting in the world.The fifteen-lecture series explores the beginning of the Bible in particular, which, as Dr. Peterson contends, has emerged through an evolutionary and historical process as the most comprehensive system for pragmatically surviving and thriving in a chaotic age.Clip extracted from: youtube.com/watch?v=f-wWBGo6a2w&t=15m43sFull series playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=PL22J3VaeABQD_IZs7y60I3lUrrFTzkpatI do not own this clip.
