Title: When Bad Things Happen To Good People
Author: Harold Kushner
Format / Cost: Ebook (free via Libby). The version I had access to was copyrighted in 1981. The introduction and Chapters 1 and 7 include the use of the r-word to refer to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and Chapters 4 and 6 use cripple/cripples to refer to physically disabled people (additional chapters may also use crippled instead of disabled). It's not a malicious use of these words, but for people who skip past the copyright info and are not already aware of when this book was published, it may be a bit jarring to suddenly see this choice of words.
Overall, I can see why a lot of to-read lists include this book. Some people may appreciate considering why there's suffering in the world generally, but this is very much coming from a perspective that's more theistic and ultimately thinks that God and/or religion can still be a source of comfort, especially if interacting with some sort of community. (Kushner's a rabbi. The God/religion/community thing shouldn't be too surprising, nor should the Jewish examples like sitting shiva.)
Basically, the idea put forward is that God is not all-powerful, which may be kinda scary to think about for some. There can be bad luck and randomness in the universe, natural laws of this world aren't going to be miraculously altered, bad things can happen because of humans having the moral free will to do so, and the conceptualization of God as a parent who will punish us in order to teach us a lesson can bring about more blame, guilt, shame, and alienation from whatever comfort God/religion/community could provide than ultimately do most people good. More or less. But I think 'God is all-loving but not all-powerful' sums it up.
(This has been tagged with #reviews for personal blog organization purposes and may not be considered a full or satisfying review for anyone else. Some quotes are below the read-more.)
Chapter 1: Why Do the Righteous Suffer?
To ask "Why do the righteous suffer?" or "Why do bad things happen to good people?" is not to limit our concern to the martyrdom of saints and sages, but to try to understand why ordinary people—ourselves and people around us—should have to bear extraordinary burdens of grief and pain.
.
One of the ways in which people have tried to make sense of the world's suffering in every generation has been by assuming that we deserve what we get, that somehow our misfortunes comes as punishment for our sins [...] This is an attitude we will meet later in the book when we discuss the whole question of guilt. It is tempting at one level to believe that bad things happen to people (especially other people) because God is a righteous judge who gives them exactly what they deserve. By believing that, we keep the world orderly and understandable. We give people the best possible reason for being good and for avoiding sin. And by believing that, we can maintain an image of God as all-loving, all-powerful, and totally in control.
.
Sometimes we try to make sense of life's trials by saying that people do in fact get what they deserve, but only over the course of time. At any given moment, life may seem unfair and innocent people may appear to be suffering. But if we wait long enough, we believe, we will see the righteousness of God's plan emerge.
I can't say I recognized Psalm 92 as an example of this coping mechanism, but it isn't just anecdotes about families in his congregation that are providing examples.
Often, victims of misfortune try to console themselves with the idea that God has His reasons for making this happen to them, reasons that they are in no position to judge.
See also: 'The Lord works in mysterious ways'.
Let us now consider another question: Can suffering be educational? Can it cure us of our faults and make us better people? Sometimes religious people who would like to believe that God has good reasons for making us suffer, try to imagine what those reasons might be. In the words of one of the great Orthodox Jewish thinkers of our time, Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik, "Suffering comes to ennoble man, to purge his thoughts of pride and superficiality, to expand his horizons. In sum, the purpose of suffering is to repair that which is faulty in a man's personality."
I think quite a few people nowadays would push back on the example of a parent spanking a child to teach them a lesson, but ultimately, the analogy of God in a parental role can still be parsed. Kushner pushes back on this educational idea by pointing out that a parent disciplining a child without making it clear what fault needs to be changed is more just randomly punishing the child, and it can be just as unhelpful to try to make the educational aspect be for the surrounding people.
If God is testing us, He must know by now that many of us fail the test. If He is only giving us burdens we can bear, I have seen Him miscalculate far too often.
In the last few years, I've run into a meme that's along the lines of: God sends [fill in the blank] to His strongest soldiers. I'm more used to it be used in a light-hearted manner, but I must admit that it feels less light-hearted to have a bit more background on where that was likely coming from [Abraham was being given a test in being asked to sacrifice his son Isaac].
When all else fails, some people try to explain suffering by believing that it comes to liberate us from a world of pain and lead us to a better place.
On the one hand, I'm reminded of earlier reading where there were explanations of how the World To Come even became a thought in Jewish thinking (and how it was a reaction to Roman persecution), so this can sometimes make sense for some people. On the other hand, yeah: "since we cannot know for sure, we would be well advised to take this world as seriously as we can, in case it turns out to be the only one we will ever have, and to look for meaning and justice here."
This chapter ends with the proposition that God may not actually be the source of suffering – "Could it be that 'How could God do this to me?' is really the wrong question for us to ask?" – and sets up the exploration of the Book of Job in the next chapter.

Chapter 2: The Story of a Man Named Job
A long, long time ago, scholars believe, there must have been a well-known folk story, a kind of morality fable told to reinforce people's religious sentiments, about a pious man named Job. Job was so good, so perfect, that you realize at once that you are not reading about a real-life person. This is a "once-upon-a-time" story about a good man who suffered. [...] At the end, God appears, scolds the friends for their advice [to give up his piety], and rewards Job for his faithfulness. [...] [Our anonymous author] was so upset with this pious old fable that he took it, turned it inside out, and recast it as a philosophical poem in which the characters' positions are reversed. In the poem, Job does complain against God, and now it is the friends who uphold the conventional theology, the idea that "no ills befall the righteous."
I'm not going to give a play-by-play, but Job's friends don't want to have to give up on the idea that God is all-powerful, just, and fair, so they're willing to give up on the idea that Job is a good person. Job, with the firm self-knowledge that he's not any worse than others, is more willing to give up the idea that God is good. Instead, God is "above notions of fairness, being so powerful that no moral rules apply to Him" (and more similar to an insecure, ancient king in the fable who rewards people for their loyalty instead of their goodness).
Let me suggest that the author of the Book of Job takes the position which neither Job nor his friends take. He believes in God's goodness and in Job's goodness, and is prepared to give up his belief in proposition (A): that God is all-powerful.
This includes the part of God's speech about having trouble capturing a sea serpent in a net, which would not be unreasonably interpreted as a deity having trouble capturing disorder and chaos (with parallels or similarities to some other mythology of that time/place).
Our misfortunes are none of His doing, and so we can turn to Him for help. Our question will not be Job's question "God, why are You doing this to me?" but rather "God, see what is happening to me. Can you help me?" We will turn to God, not to be judged or forgiven, not to be rewarded or punished, but to be strengthened and comforted.
I didn't pull out the specific quote from Chapter 1, but one of the potential drawbacks of seeing God as the source of suffering is that some people [who would otherwise like to get comfort from God via prayer] don't feel like they can, or are allowed, to seek that type of help from God if God is trying to teach them a lesson, punish them, test them, etc.

Chapter 3: Sometimes There Is No Reason
This is perhaps the philosophical idea which is the key to everything else I am suggesting in this book. Can you accept the idea that some things happen for no reason, that there is randomness in the universe? Some people cannot handle that idea. They look for connections, striving desperately to make sense of all that happens. They convince themselves that God is cruel, or that they are sinners, rather than accept randomness. Sometimes, when they have made sense of ninety percent of everything they know, they let themselves assume that the other ten percent makes sense also, but lies beyond the reach of their understanding. But why do we have to insist on everything being reasonable? Why must everything happen for a specific reason? Why can't we let the universe have a few rough edges?
There several examples (who lives during a mass shooting, which homes burn in a wildfire, etc.) but the refusal on Kushner's part to accept God having a reason for Martin Luther King Jr dying when he did has an evocative line: "Why can't we acknowledge that the assassination was an affront to God, even as it was to us, and a sidetracking of His purposes, rather than strain our imaginations to find evidence of God's fingerprints on the murder weapon?"
Rather than strain our imaginations to find evidence of God's fingerprints on the murder weapon. (That's the type of phrase you underline or circle in a book.)
Suppose that Creation, the process of replacing chaos with order, were still going on. What would that mean? In the biblical metaphor of the six days of Creation, we would find ourselves somewhere in the middle of Friday afternoon. Man was just created a few "hours" ago. The world is mostly an orderly, predictable place, showing ample evidence of God's thoroughness and handiwork, but pockets of chaos remain. Most of the time, the events of the universe follow firm natural laws. But every now and then, things happen not contrary to those laws of nature but outside them. Things happen which could just as easily have happened differently.
This isn't the sort of idea that's supposed to be a definite answer for everyone. It's more of a way to accept that randomness is a possibility, and Kushner uses an example of where hurricanes ultimately wind up making landfall. (He also pushes back on some purported beliefs that earthquakes are a punishment from God for the "alleged homosexual excesses of San Francisco" and such sinful judgments. Post-2005, I remember someone used to use the example of Hurricane Katrina being a punishment for America for progress on gay rights.)
Or it may be that God finished His work of creating eons ago, and left the rest to us. Residual chaos, chance and mischance, things happening for no reason, will continue to be with us, the kind of evil that Milton Steinberg has called "the still unremoved scaffolding of the edifice of God's creativity." In that case, we will simply have to learn to live with it, sustained and comforted by the knowledge that the earthquake and the accident, like the murder and the robbery, are not the will of God, but represent that aspect of reality which stands independent of His will, and which angers and saddens God even as it angers and saddens us.

Chapter 4: No Exceptions for Nice People
Laws of nature treat everyone alike. They do not make exceptions for good people or for useful people. If a man enters a house where someone has a contagious disease, he runs the risk of catching that disease. It makes no difference why he is in the house. He may be a doctor or a burglar; disease germs cannot tell the difference. [...] Laws of nature do not make exceptions for nice people. A bullet has no conscience; neither does a malignant tumor or automobile gone out of control. That is why good people get sick and get hurt as much as anyone. No matter what stories we were taught about Daniel or Jonah in Sunday school, God does not reach down to interrupt the workings of laws of nature to protect the righteous from harm. [...] Would this be a better world, if certain people were immune to laws of nature because God favored them, while the rest of us had to fend for ourselves?
Kushner pushes back a bit on acts of nature being called 'acts of God' by insurance companies, and then he transitions from 'Why do good and bad people experience XYZ?' to 'Why do people in general have to feel pain, get sick, or die?' as a line of thinking. Pain is important for taking care of our bodies (to prevent worse injuries, say) even if we can't always imbue the pain with meaning and significance. Getting sick is more presented as cause-and-effect and us gradually learning more about how humans get sick, though it'd be nice to not have that fatphobic example. (Eugenics is also a bad idea even if certain illnesses have a genetic source.) Death is presented as a species benefit from looking at drawbacks of fictional immortality with a clear acknowledgment that this perspective doesn't provide comfort to individuals dealing with death or grief.
-
Chapter 5: God Leaves Us Room to Be Human
There's this whole thing with how humans were created as part animal, part not-animal [in the image of God]. Eating from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil presents a differentiation from animals just living based on pure instinct. I can see how this is getting to Kushner's point that a certain amount of bad things happen because humans have moral freedom and the free will to choose to do bad things, but I also feel like I'm not entirely convinced by some of the specific examples being used to get to that point. (This is probably a difference in approaches to animal intelligence and social capabilities in 2024 versus 1981.)
In order to let us be free, in order to let us be human, God has to leave us free to choose to do right or to do wrong. If we are not free to choose evil, then we are not free to choose good either. Like the animals, we can only be convenient or inconvenient, obedient or disobedient. We can no longer be moral, which means we can no longer be human. [...] Our moral freedom means that, if we choose to be selfish or dishonest, we can be selfish and dishonest, and God will not stop us. If we want to take something that does not belong to us, God will not reach down and pull our hand away from the cookie jar. If we want to hurt someone, God will not intervene to keep us from doing that. All He will do is tell us that certain things are wrong, warn us that we will be sorry for having done them, and hope that, if we don't take His word for it, we will at least learn from experience.
There are small scale examples that support this idea, but Kushner does include the Holocaust as a bad thing that happened due to humanity's moral freedom instead of a specific plan on God's part.

Chapter 6: God Helps Those Who Stop Hurting Themselves
One of the worst things that happens to a person who has been hurt by life is that he tends to compound the damage by hurting himself a second time. Not only is he the victim of rejection, bereavement, injury, or bad luck; he often feels the need to see himself as a bad person who had this coming to him, and because of that drive away people who try to come close to him and help him. Too often, in our pain and confusion, we instinctively do the wrong thing. We don't feel we deserve to be helped, so we let guilt, anger, jealousy, and self-imposed loneliness make a bad situation even worse.
There's a section that calls back to the chapter on Job, but it also broadly covers guilt and blame. We can accidentally affirm someone's feelings of guilt, we can carry baggage about deserving blame for bad things into a present situation, and sometimes we actually should feel guilty (the anecdote used was someone who had cheated on his wife with his secretary). There's also a section on talking about death with teenagers and children, including some care with 'stock phrases' that can accidentally affirm guilt or blame.
There's a sliding scale of truly understanding what death means for children – whole books are devoted to explaining death to youngsters, so this section won't handle everything – but one should definitely be mindful of young children blaming themselves or thinking a death was punishment for something that happened recently. Odds are that a teen trying to increase their independence from their parents will feel some amount of annoyance with them, want them to go away, or otherwise not be a perfect example of gratefulness or communication, and one should try not to imply that these relatively normal teenage things are to blame for a parent dying [the anecdote featured a teen whose mother died from cancer].
Anger isn't uncommon in the grieving process. Sometimes a situation will have a very clear cut person to be angry at, but other times, there's so much anger that it can get a bit misdirected. I'm not certain that I'm sold on the idea that depression is anger turned inwards, but I suppose it's sometimes that way, maybe moreso in specific grief and self-blame examples. Unsurprisingly, some people will be angry at God, but Kushner holds that it's better to be angry at the situation and leave room for some sort of religious comfort.
Actually, being angry at God won't hurt God, and neither will it provoke Him to take measures against us. If it makes us feel better to vent our anger at Him over a painful situation, we are free to do it.
I don't know if some psychologists actually do trace the origins of jealousy to sibling rivalry, but jealousy is also an unavoidable feeling when dealing with overcoming hard situations.
The afflicted person is not looking for an invitation to join the Suffering Olympics. But it would help if we remembered this: Anguish and heart-break may not be distributed evenly throughout the world, but they are distributed very widely. Everyone gets his share. If we knew the facts, we would very rarely find someone whose life was to be envied.

Chapter 7: God Can't Do Everything, But He Can Do Some Important Things
If we believe in God, but we do not hold God responsible for life's tragedies, if we believe that God wants justice and fairness but cannot always arrange for them, what are we doing when we pray to God for a favorable outcome to a crisis in our life?
There are certain types of prayer that are considered ineffective, and one shouldn't expect God to be able to answer them: When an event has already happened and we don't know the outcome yet, we shouldn't ask God to "go back and rewrite the past" for us. God cannot change the laws of nature for our benefit. We shouldn't pray for harm for someone else, and we shouldn't pray for God to do something we have the resources to do and are capable of doing.
This doesn't mean that there's nothing to even bother praying for, but the point of prayer (and religion in general) is community. You sit shiva, eat the meal of replenishment (se'udat havra'ah) after returning from the cemetery, and attend services to recite the Mourners' Kaddish because it's a means of accessing community.
One goes to a religious service, one recites the traditional prayers, not in order to find God (there are plenty of other places where He can be found), but to find a congregation, to find people with whom you can share that which means the most to you. From that point of view, just being able to pray helps, whether your prayer changes the world outside you or not.
Kushner contrasts two prayers said by Jacob at two points in his life. When he first leaves his home as a young man, he does the typical 'whatever you want, I'll do it' sort of barter. After building a family and 20 years going by, when he is going to return to his childhood home, he acknowledges that he's afraid and does more of a 'can't do this alone' sort of prayer.
The God I believe in does not send us the problem; He gives us the strength to cope with the problem. [...] One of the things that constantly reassures me that God is real, and not just an idea that religious leaders made up, is the fact that people who pray for strength, hope, and courage so often find resources of strength, hope, and courage that they did not have before they prayed.
-
Chapter 8: What Good, Then, Is Religion?
A book telling people how much I hurt would not do anyone any good. This had to be a book that would affirm life. It would have to say that no one ever promised us a life free from pain and disappointment. The most anyone promised us was that we would not be alone in our pain, and that we would be able to draw upon a source outside ourselves for the strength and courage we would need to survive life's tragedies and life's unfairness.
Posts about martyrdom and the Air Force member who killed himself have been circling back around on my dash, though it's no longer a recent news story, and it feels important that this book is trying to affirm life.
Let me suggest that the bad things that happen to us in our lives do not have a meaning when they happen to us. They do not happen for any good reason which would cause us to accept them willingly. But we can give them a meaning. We can redeem these tragedies from senselessness by imposing meaning on them. The question we should be asking is not, "Why did this happen to me? What did I do to deserve this?" That is really an unanswerable, pointless question. A better question would be "Now that this has happened to me, what am I going to do about it?"
It kind of reminds me of some radical acceptance posts I've seen – I think from a chronically ill person doing DBT – about figuring out how to live with chronic illness and disability post-diagnosis.
God, who neither causes nor prevents tragedies, helps by inspiring people to help. As a nineteenth-century Hasidic rabbi once put it, "human beings are God's language."
Examples touched upon are people who help in natural disasters, people who research diseases (like cancer), people who become doctors and nurses, and people who reach out to your family when living with a diagnosis (not in big, immediate ways, but in treating you and your family like fellow neighbors and friends in the small ways, even years on).
Is there an answer to the question of why bad things happen to good people? That depends on what we mean by "answer." If we mean "Is there an explanation which will make sense of it all?"—Why is there cancer in the world? Why did my father get cancer? Why did the plane crash? Why did my child die?—then there is probably no satisfying answer. We can offer learned explanations, but in the end, when we have covered all the squares on the game board and are feeling very proud of our cleverness, the pain and the anguish and the sense of unfairness will still be there. But the word "answer" can mean "response" as well as "explanation," and in that sense, there may well be a satisfying answer to the tragedies in our lives. The response would be Job's response in MacLeish's version of the biblical story—to forgive the world for not being perfect, to forgive God for not making a better world, to reach out to the people around us, and to go on living despite it all.
A previous section covered Archibald MacLeish's play J.B., which is a modern retelling of Job's story. J.B. loses his children and house in a nuclear event, the comforters have been modernized a bit (such as a Marxist saying that J.B. had the bad luck to be a capitalist during capitalism's decline), and J.B. ultimately begins a new life with his wife (the possibility to have future children replaces God restoring all that Job lost).
Are you capable of forgiving and loving God even when you have found out that He is not perfect, even when He has let you down and disappointed you by permitting bad luck and sickness and cruelty in His world, and permitting some of those things to happen to you? Can you learn to love and forgive Him despite His limitations, as Job does, and as you once learned to forgive and love your parents even though they were not as wise, as strong, or as perfect as you needed them to be?
This is from the ending where the question of why bad things happen is turned into questions of how we respond to the bad thing and go forward. I pulled this particular section out because it feels like an apt way to round out a chapter based on figuring out how to respond to religion in a broad sense in the wake of all these other chapters.

Bindwel to launch book-on-demand solution at drupa 2024
Tumblr media
Self-publishing is a popular option among authors wanting to retain full control over their content, cover design, and pricing. There are numerous success stories of self-published authors, with many becoming bestsellers and being picked up by traditional publishers. In today's fast-paced world, the demand for instant access to information and entertainment has never been higher. Readers crave to lay their hands on the latest books quickly and conveniently, without waiting for traditional publishing timelines.
Keeping these trends in mind, Bindwel, a book publishing equipment manufacturer, is set to launch a books-on-demand binding machine at the drupa 2024 show in Dusseldorf, which could revolutionize the way books are being produced. This model empowers authors to take ownership of their work and reach readers directly, without the need for traditional publishing gatekeepers.
According to the company, in recent years, the markets have witnessed a surge in self-published authors who have defied the odds and found success on their terms. Take, for example, Rupi Kaur, whose poetry collection Milk and Honey took readers across the world by storm after she self-published it. Despite facing rejection from traditional publishers, Kaur's determination and talent propelled her to international fame, proving that self-publishing can be a viable path to success.
If Amish Tripathi had surrendered after facing rejection from all 20 major publishers, then his best-selling Shiva trilogy would have never seen the light of day. Similarly, Ashwin Sanghi turned to self-publishing for his genre-bending thriller, The Rozabal Line, and found success.
“Our BOD product is designed to meet the demands of readers who want their favorite books delivered quickly and efficiently. It allows for seamless binding of books in small quantities, ensuring maximum efficiency and quality. With the ability to produce up to 1000 books per hour, each book could be different. It is perfect for being a critical link in print-on-demand services, looking to meet the demands of today's authors, publishers, and readers,” the company says.
Changing market landscape
As the publishing industry evolves, new business models are emerging to meet the demands of authors and readers alike. Hybrid publishing, which combines elements of traditional publishing and self-publishing, offers authors editorial and marketing support while still allowing them to retain creative control. Custom publishing services such as Shutterfly cater to individuals and businesses looking to create customized books. With a variety of templates and customization options available, customers can create personalized books for any occasion, from weddings to corporate events.
Challenges and solutions in BOD binding
http://indianprinterpublisher.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Bindline-5K-300x154.jpg
Despite the many benefits of BOD, there are still challenges to overcome, particularly in the realm of binding. Adhesive binding, while stable for short runs, can pose durability issues in the long term. Additionally, hardcover production remains expensive, limiting its accessibility to authors and publishers. However, innovative solutions are on the rise, with companies such as Bindwel pioneering advancements in binding technology. Through a combination of research and development, Bindwel says it aims to address these challenges and provide authors with reliable, cost-effective binding solutions for their BOD projects.
Apart from the launch, at drupa, the company will also showcase its recent innovation, the Bindline 5000 (5K), which can produce 5000 books per hour with minimal manual effort and maximum output. The precision of the Trimit 50C trimmer complements this symphony of speed, achieving 50 cycles per minute with ease, the company explains.
“We are pushing for standardization, questioning the need for so many different sizes. Bringing in standardization will usher in efficiencies and bring down costs," Pallippuram Sajith, managing director of Bindwel-Stelda, said.

Punjabi - "CHITT VITT RAHEO THAGORE; NANAK PHANSI GALL PARRI" - Punjabi - "CHITT VITT RAHEO THAGORE; NANAK PHANSI GALL PARRI" - Khatris created the mess and they will suffer the greatest of all. https://youtu.be/jRYZn916Vu0 Hello Honest Khatris, KHATRI, KHATRI, KHATRI, GREEDY KHATRIS, 22 FAKE IMPOSTERS CLAIMED TO BE THE NEXT SATGURU; FOR WHAT, MONEY, MONEY, MONEY, CHEATING THE POOR HARD-WORKING FARMERS UNDER THE PRETEXT OF DASSAUND THAT USED TO BE IN HINDUISM BUT NOT IN THE SIKHISM WHERE YOU DONATE. AS A RESULT, OUR SUPERNATURAL FATHER ELOHIM, ALLAH, PARBRAHM, ETC., WOULD NOT AUTHORISE THEM TO KNOW THAT NANAK WASN'T THE BRAHMIN GURU, A MORAL TEACHER BUT THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST JESUS, THE GREATEST OF ALL THE THREE GURUS REPRESENTED BY THE THREE KNOTS TO THE “JAENAOO”, "SATGURU = CHRIST WH0SE KNOT IS TO THE “BODI” OVER MUNN". THESE KARTARPURI KHATRIS USED TO GO AROUND VILLAGES TO COLLECT DASSAUND AND MY FATHER DAUNTED THEM AND THEY LEFT OUR VILLAGE DHANNUANA "BARKING KOTTAE". ALSO, KNOW THAT THIS KARTARPURI ORIGINAL "BEERR", HAS BEEN HIGHLY CORRUPTED AND MANY PAGES HAVE BEEN WHITE-WASHED - CONSULT THE BOOK BY PROF. JODH SINGH "KARTARPURI BEERR DAE DARSHAN" PUBLISHED BY THE PATIALA UNIVERSITY. Also, here it is worth mentioning a Khatri/Arorra Lala Kahan Singh Nabha who published the Book that we are not Hindus, the very first Panth of the Four. He is not a Dhillon Jatt but find it out, please. So, Dhur Ki Bani, you receive from Parbrahm, Allah, etc. only by His grace. No man or Book can give you. The result of the greedy Khatris misleading the general public for the sake of money, they have produced Fake copies of Ad-Granth FULL OF corruptions and the nearest to the True One is the KHARI BEER OF BHAI BANNO MANGAT JATT. I can tell many things and here are the functions of the Ten Lights; Six Satgurus specialising in the Progression of the Sikh; Shae Ghar, Shae Updesh and Four Sachae Patshah to deal with the affairs of the Four Varnas and therefore, Four Takhts to look after the affairs of the Four Varnas. This Damdami Taksaal belongs to the Kalyugi Shankar Varn of the super bastard fanatic devils similar to the Talibans – John 8v44. Much more in my over 8400 Youtube Videos; channel One God One Faith. I will explain further in my Youtube videos. WHY TEN LIGHTS? Nanak wasn't a Moral Teacher, a Brahmin Guru but Satguru = Christ of the highest order that Preaches the Gospel to one's mind, Munn, Nafs, etc. https://youtu.be/HquVBRjtXF8 www.gnosticgospel.co.uk/tenlight.htm Punjabi - Nirmallae Sants learnt the Scriptures from Kanshi and then, they Preached the Gospel. They do not handle money or they are the sons of Satan. https://youtu.be/chiRrKtEqLg 2. Satguru Angad Dev Ji stressed that before one could receive His Word, one should be clean and healthy Harmandir i.e. from JATTI to SATTI. 3. Satguru Amar Dev Ji, took over those child-like Virgins in SURTI, then He promoted His 5. Satguru Arjan Dev Ji then stressed that how a sealed to serve and a humble Sikh, Gurmukh reaps the fruits of the Royal Kingdom of God. Thus, Satguru Arja 6. Sachae Paatshah Har Gobind Ji initiated the ParShakti Marag of philanthropy as that was the limit of bearing the atrocities of the sons of Satan under Bhakti Marag. He is the spiritual Incarnation of Shri Krishan Baldev Ji or the Paar Shiv, Yadav especially the Jatts that form Shiv Sena, DAEH SHIVA VAR MOHAE …… 8. Sachae Paatshah Har Krishan Ji was greater than the Shri Krishan Baldev Ji of Doapar Yug of Geeta.  Shri Krishan Baldev Ji was the incarnation of Shiv and he showed Arjun that He is the Master of all the creations, nature at large (flesh). Sachae Paatshah Har Krishan Ji being Par Shiv stressed that like Krishan Baldev Ji, He is the Master of the exposition of His Word, ParGeeta.  So, Sachae Paatshah Har Krishan Ji amazed people by rendering the exposition of His Word. 9. Satguru Tegh Bahadur Ji was the last on earth anointed Sixth Christ/Satguru in the name of Satguru Nanak Dev Ji, Who delivered the ultimate Sermon to the people. The Granthis over there are worse than the Thugs of Banares; AMRITSARIYE ANDAR SARRIYE. To create the utter Darkness of Kalyug in which the sons of Satan thrive, Satguru Tegh Bahadur Ji left Punjab for a faraway province so that the sons of Satan, the Khatris to whom Kalyug belongs, could show their best performances to the world.

THERE'S A NEW PLAYER IN GOTHAM CITY -- "HUNTER OR HUNTED?"
PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on inked and fully-colored promotional ads for the "Batman versus Predator" Vol. 1 [three-issue] limited series dually published by DC and Dark Horse Comics from January to March, 1992. Artwork by Andy Kubert.
"Rocket ships and Batman are not a good mix: our Caped Crusader may use technology -- he has to, to be a credible crime-fighter in the twentieth century -- but he is not of technology; it has nothing to do with what he is. And it has nothing to do with what the Predator is, either. Take a look at him and then search your memory for predecessors. Shiva, Satan, Grendel, the Fenris Wolf -- the fiends, the devils, the devourers, the enemies of mercy and humanity -- those are the Predator's kinfolk. Do we really care that he arrived by spacecraft instead of being belched up from a fiery pit? Not unless we're very picky indeed. What's important is that he's here, suddenly among us, hateful and threatening, and our champion must meet him in mortal combat. That this champion is himself clothed in darkness -- is, in fact, a Dark Knight whose identity was forged in tragedy -- only makes the contest more interesting."
-- DENNIS "DENNY" O'NEIL (1939-2020), c. August 1992 (introduction to the 1993 trade paperback)

Acid Chlorides Market Growth, COVID Impact, Trends Analysis Report Forecast to 2032
According to Future Market Insights, the Global Acid Chlorides Market is expected to grow from US$ 2,430.9 Million in 2022 to US$ 3,903 Million by 2032, with overall demand accelerating at 4.9% CAGR throughout the forecast period (2022-2032).
Rising application of acid chlorides in pharmaceuticals, chemical reagents, plastic & pigments, organic peroxides, and agrochemicals is a key factor driving the global market and the trend is expected to continue during the forecast period.
Since cardiovascular diseases like atherosclerosis are becoming more common, demand for pharmaceuticals like aspirin continues to climb. According to data from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) published in 2021, more than 30% of Americans used aspirin in 2019.
Furthermore, it is projected that sustained pharmaceutical demand will drive market revenue growth over the next few years. Apart from pharmaceutical applications, demand for acid chlorides is also witnessing substantial growth opportunities in the agrochemical sector.
Consistent population growth is propelling sales of agrochemicals to increase crop yields to meet the growing food demand. Being key active ingredients, various acid chlorides are experiencing elevated demand levels from agrochemical sector. On the other hand, various health hazards associated with exposure to a wide spectrum of acid chlorides and the regulations associated with them are limiting market expansion
"Growing prevalence of heart diseases and increasing demand for pharmaceuticals like aspirin are anticipated to propel the sales of acid chlorides over the forecast period," says an FMI analyst.

Happy world book day: Importance of Scriptural Evidence in Hinduism
Tumblr media
In  Indian philosophy, there are six types of Pramana among which three types are considered major ones and accepted by most of the schools of Indian philosophy  
 Pramana means that which yields knowledge (prama Karanam pramanam)
Pratyaksha is the first means of knowledge – pratyaksha means that which is seen with ones very own eyes, or in a broader sense, one’s perceptual evidence. Though this is the first in the list of means of knowledge, this is considered to be very limited. Because one’s own life is limited and also their personal experiences and perceptions, sometimes they can also be faulty.
Anumana is the second means of knowledge in the order  anumana means inference, logical guess or assumption. A classical example for anumana is if smoke is visible, then there may be fire which is burning.  Prakyaksha and anumana work hand in hand most of the times to arrive conclusions.
Upamāṇa pramana (comparison and analogy) is the next in the list of pramanas, for comparison and analogy also. The scriptural material plays a vital role.
Arthapatti (postulation, presumption) in next the list of pramanas, generally considered the weakest of the pramanas by most of the schools
Anupalabdi ( non-perception, negative/cognitive proof.) such as understanding that something is absent or something is not present
The last in the order is shabda pramana, (word or testimony) or textual evidence, in my opinion this is one of the greatest pramana, (means of knowledge) to understand or learn something, we depend largely on textual evidence, because it is the collected record of experiences, perceptions and inference of great ones, the experts, the real intellectuals and the wise.
Vedas (shruti) is the first and foremost and ultimate shabda pramana in hindu philosophy, smrutis, purana, itihasa, and other sacred scriptures also fall under this category.
 The Vedanta, Sankhya and yoga schools accept pratyaksha. Anumana, and shabda as the main and reliable pramanas among which shabda pramana is of foremost importance
 By this we can conclude that the testimonial evidence of word or textual evidence, of past or present reliable experts is the most proper and wide means of knowledge.
To acquire detailed knowledge on any matter, books are thus the best source, reading is the best practice.

Betrayal's End (FFXV - Shiva/Ifrit)
Bahamut's swords litter the Rock. They gleam in the darkness, shedding none of the blood that drenches the Infernian's heart.
"I will do it." Shiva's voice floats around them.
To Ifrit's surprise, Bahamut does not protest. The damn Draconian always had something to say even if no one wanted to hear it. Winged swords sharpen as they spread to fly, and in a moment, Bahamut disappears from his sight.
Ifrit searches for her, despite knowing that she appears only when she wants to. 
"End it, my love," he says to nothing but air. Well, he tries to. Blood has filled his throat and his words come out as a gurgle. 
The white glow of the swords shimmer briefly, a prismatic rainbow taking the form of her lithe body. Her voice, once smooth, cracks as she speaks.
"Pyreburner-"
Even after all this time, his heart still quickens whenever he sees her. "No, call me by my name."
Her brow crumples. The tears that would have dripped onto his face have crystallized on her lashes. "I cannot."
"I deserve that much, at least."
Water hardens into snow as she pulls it from the air, icicle shards and dust swirling around her as she descends. Ifrit shivers as she draws closer, his every breath now dissolving into mist. He releases his sword as her fingers brush past his cheek. Her touch always calmed him.
His body stiffens as the ice spreads through his veins. He struggles to keep himself upright, but he fixates his gaze on her. He would not look away. 
She whispers a single word and kisses him. Her lips are a cold and brittle shell, but he knows if he presses on them hard enough, it would eventually melt away into a warmth that would almost match his. He tries to remember this. He will remember this. 
Contended, he allows himself to smile. Even if Bahamut's precious world slumbered in darkness, even if his mind was lost, he would remember.
I’m immensely grateful to all my patrons on Patreon. This piece was 100% done and published with their support, and hopefully you’ll be able to see more fanart on Patreon and here in the future!
Big thanks to my top tier patrons: Heather, Tamar, Val and Lexi!

You can send more, I absolutely do not mind. There’s no limit, if there had been, I’d have said.

Is Yoga Suitable For Older People
New Post has been published on https://www.ontarioyoga.net/is-yoga-suitable-for-older-people/
Is Yoga Suitable For Older People
While Age Does Affect You In Various Ways Theres A Lot You Can Do To Limit Its Impact On Your Body Yoga Is An Excellent Anti
July 31, 2017
Along with the smile lines and gray hair, aging brings changes that are harder to see but very easy to feel, especially during movement. As you age, you’ll encounter general physiological changes in elasticity, stability, speed, strength, and endurance, as well as a different perspective on physical goals. Specific health problems emerge as we age, and these age-related illnesses might affect your yoga practice. Here, we offer our thoughts on how to modify your practice for these common ailments, and we detail the ways that yoga can actually relieve symptoms or has been proven to improve medical outcomes. From heart issues to less lung capacity, decreased bone density to hormonal changes, and to artificial knees, physical changes will affect and dictate the needs of a yoga asana practice, but in all cases, doing yoga will make you feel better.
% Of Yoga Students Practiced Online Yoga Before The Global Pandemic This Number Increased By 91% Amidst The Pandemic
Yoga statistics worldwide show that the global pandemic made things much harder for yoga students and teachers who were forced to switch to online classes. Naturally, the numbers are even higher amongst yoga teachers. According to one study, only 9% of teachers held online yoga classes before the lockdown. This number grew by 86% due to the closing of the studios. 
From Chair Yoga To Hatha To Vinyasa Heres Your Guide To Eight Popular Yoga Types Every Older Adult Should Know
There are countless reasons to add yoga to your routine. Research shows a regular practice not only improves balance and mobility in older adults, but it may also help ease back pain, relieve depression, and even reduce blood pressure for people with hypertension.
“Yoga can help keep the body agile,” says Terry Cockburn, a yoga instructor and owner of Freeport Yoga Company in Freeport, Maine. “It can also help you maintain proprioception, or the awareness of where your body is in relation to everything else,” she says.
That translates to a reduced risk of falls—which is especially compelling, considering falls are the leading cause of injuries in adults older than 65.
So, if you’ve considered trying yoga, now is the time to do it! You don’t have to be flexible or experienced to get started. To help you find the best class for your fitness level and personality, we break down eight of the most popular yoga types.
% Of Yoga Practitioners Begin To Practice Hoping That Yoga Helps Them Release Tension Yoga Statistics Indicate
It is widely known that there’s a connection between yoga and health, and the statistics are very clear about it. More than half of US citizens state that it has a relaxing effect on their nervous system and musculature. 
They also reported they were motivated to take up yoga in order to feel happier overall .
There Are 5505 Million Yoga Practitioners In The Us And 38% Of Them Are Over 50 Years Old
You’re never too old to start taking yoga classes. While the highest prevalence among yoga practitioners is among people aged 30-39, yoga statistics and demographics prove that there are no age limits and that anyone can practice yoga no matter their age. 
Complex poses are usually what scares people off, thinking that you have to be a young, trained athlete to do yoga. In fact, everyone can benefit from this ancient practice; there are so many types of it that virtually anyone can find regimes that suit their age, shape, and preferences.
There Are Conflicting Beliefs On The Very Practice Of Using Cannabis Along With Yoga
While some claim that yogis should avoid consuming cannabis when practicing—supposedly it has a distracting effect, leading to the complete loss of focus. On the other hand, cannabis is very much present in yoga history. As a matter of fact, the Hindu Lord of Yoga, Lord Shiva, goes under the name as the Lord of Ganja, as that was the deity that gave humanity the gift of cannabis.
Yoga For Seniors Can Help With Balance Agility And Strength But Injuries Do Happen
The elegant, silver-haired woman poked her head tentatively into my classroom as students were setting up their mats and chairs for a “gentle yoga” class. “Is it okay if I just watch?” she asked, then told me she had tried a yoga class to ease pain in her neck and back, only to find that actually made her problem worse.
It’s a complaint I’ve heard many times, particularly from older adults: that the supposedly healing practice of yoga caused pain. As a teacher specializing in therapeutic yoga for seniors and people with health challenges, I often work with those who have had a negative experience in a yoga class, frequently because it was an inappropriate style or level for the participant or was taught by an inexperienced or poorly trained instructor.
“Teaching yoga at a senior center is an entry-level job in many communities, which means they’re putting the least-trained people with the hardest crowd,” says Gale A. Greendale, a professor of medicine and gerontology at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. “There’s often a cacophony of preexisting conditions in this age group, and a yoga teacher has to be very skilled to not get older adults into trouble.”
Like any physical activity, yoga has risks, Greendale says, but “I believe yoga’s benefits outweigh its risks as long as people start at the right level, don’t progress too fast and make appropriate modifications.”
One Of The Greatest Understanding Is That The Chair Is Not A Prop But The Floor
Weiss Hospital Senior Center Class – 2016 – Sat Sevak Kaur Level 1 Teacher leads her Seniors through a beautiful series of movements, chanting and meditation.
Kundalini Yoga for Elders is for those who want to get their bodies back and for those that want to keep the healthy body they already have. It covers chair yoga, and yoga for Arthritis.
Do Yoga Asanas Increase The Efficiency Of The Immune System For The Elderly
Here, again, the Yoga Sutras provide us with insight. Sutra 2.16 states “dukham anaagatam,” which translates into “so that we can avoid the misery that has not yet come.” As we age, the efficiency of our bodies and the immune system’s defenses deteriorate, increasing the risk of sickness. Regular practice of yoga for seniors can lower stress hormones and inflammation, boost the immune system, and decrease the chance of sickness.
So whether you are 65 or 105, lay down your yoga mat, grab a chair, and get started with your yoga practice today!
While a regular yoga practice can result in improved health, know that it is not a substitute for medical treatment. It is important to learn and practice yoga under the supervision of a trained teacher. In the case of a medical condition, practice yoga after consulting a doctor. Do you need information on courses? Contact us at [email protected] to find a Sri Sri Yoga course at an Art of Living Center near you.
We would also like to invite you to attend a free breath and meditation online session to learn about SKY Breath Meditation, the perfect accompaniment to any yoga practice.
More Than 34000 People Reported Injuries Caused By Yoga Practice In 2019
While yoga is a good exercise that can help people deal with stress and anxiety, in addition to becoming stronger and more flexible, an incorrect practice might lead to numerous injuries, especially if there are pre-existing musculoskeletal ailments. Therefore, it’s important to take proper precautions to avoid muscle damage.
Yoga injuries statistics show the most common problems include strains and overstretching of the neck, spine, legs, shoulders, and knees.
More Older People Are Doing Yoga But They Are Also Racking Up Injuries
Yoga may hold a key to aging well, suggests a growing body of research into its potential benefits for body and mind — benefits that include reducing heart rate and blood pressure, relieving anxiety and depression, and easing back pain. One recent study even raised the possibility of positive changes in biological markers of aging and stress in people who do yoga.
So it’s no surprise that the number of yoga practitioners in the United States has more than doubled to 36.7 million over the last decade, with health benefits the main reason people practice, according to the Yoga in America Study conducted last year on behalf of Yoga Journal and the Yoga Alliance.
While yoga enthusiasts are often pictured as young and bendy, the reality, according to the Yoga in America study, is that 17 percent are in their 50s and 21 percent are age 60 and older.
Along with this upsurge of interest has been an upsurge in injuries, particularly among older practitioners. “Participants aged 65 years and older have a greater rate of injury from practicing yoga when compared with other age groups,” researchers wrote last year in a study of nearly 30,000 yoga-related injuries seen in U.S. hospital emergency departments from 2001 to 2014. “While there are many health benefits to practicing yoga, participants and those wishing to become participants should confer with a physician prior to engaging in physical activity and practice only under the guidance of certified instructors.”
Yoga For Older Adults: 5 Health Benefits Of The Practice For Post50s
Beginning a yoga practice as an older adult can be intimidating, especially if you’re out of shape or working with health conditions. Although you don’t want to jump into a 90-minute hot yoga class with a group of younger practitioners, starting a gentle practice for beginners can be an excellent way to stay active and lower stress levels. Yoga can have a number of benefits for people over 50, from healthy bones to flexibility to anxiety relief. Ninety-four-year-old yogi Tao Porchon-Lynch swears by yoga as a way to maintain a positive attitude, relieve stress and age gracefully.
Yoga is not only safe for older practitioners, but also effective in keeping the mind and body in good health. If you’re thinking about starting a yoga practice, make sure to find a class and instructor who can meet your needs.
“People can either find an individual teacher to work with when they first start out, or find a studio that works with beginner classes, and see if they tailor to people over 50,” Eva Norlyk Smith, yoga teacher and Managing Editor at YogaUOnline, tells Huff/Post50.
“There’s a lot to learn, and most people over 50 run into issues like tight hamstrings, which affects alignment in so many different postures,” Norlyk Smith says. “If you go in and have a 20-year-old doing it perfectly next to you, you’re going to push yourself more than you should.”

High-intensity exercises – such as running, cycling, and weight-lifting – can put a strain on the body and lead to injuries. A gentle yoga practice is an excellent low-impact exercise option. Yoga is not only safe for older practitioners, but effective in maintaining mental and physical health.

Arrive early before your first class so that you have an opportunity to speak with your instructor about what to expect during class. Let your instructor know about any injuries or health issues you have. Never overextend yourself on your mat, and move into postures only as far as you can. Ask your instructor for help if you need it. New practitioners should also remember that they can take a seated position or child’s pose if they need to rest.
How Does Yoga For Seniors Differ From Yoga For Younger People
Täo Porchon-Lynch is a shining example of the way in which the terms “old” and “young” refer to the state of the body, rather than numerical age. In fact, many older adults have greater flexibility than sedentary young people.

When you’re trying to determine which of the different types of yoga is best for you, remember that there is no right or wrong one— just one that might not be right for you at this moment.
“Like any form of exercise, choose something you want to do,” says Stephanie Saunders, executive director of fitness at Beachbody and a certified yoga instructor. “Bikram or Iyengar might appeal to you if you are a very detailed person. If you are more of a free spirit, vinyasa or aerial yoga might be fun. Find a class that makes you excited to go.”

Yoga For Seniors Improves Your Posture And Balance
Practicing yoga can also help you maintain your balance and will improve your posture. And all this results in fewer falls. Balance represents one of the first things all people start to lose when they get older. And balance is important for preventing falls because falls are the leading cause of death among seniors, according to an old report published in 2014 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in America. Doing yoga might improve your agility and mobility thanks to the precise and slow yoga movements.
More Exercise Means More Independence For Seniors:
Seniors that exercise regularly are less likely to depend on others. According to Harvard Medical School, regular exercise promotes an older adults ability to walk, bathe, cook, eat, dress, and use the restroom. If self-reliance is a priority, exercise is one of the best ways to maintain independence for older adults.
Best Exercises That Are Suitable For Senior Adults
Aging does not mean that you need to retire from your gym or workout sessions. But many older people tend to slow down and become more sedentary with age, which can be due to health problems, pain issues or worries about falling. A more sedentary lifestyle can also give rise to new health concerns.
That’s exactly why it’s important to stay fit and healthy, especially as you get older, and exercise plays an important role in this. Exercise is good for all, whether you are a child or a senior.
Regular exercise offers great benefits for seniors, including an extended lifespan, reduced risk of falls, better muscle health, improved bone density, better sleep, reduced risk of a stroke or heart attack, reduced risk of developing dementia, and increased confidence and independence.
So, with increasing age, you should give more importance to your exercise routine. But keep in mind, the aging body is not capable of bearing the burden of all types of exercise.
You need to choose the right exercise regimen to reap the benefits.
Here are some of the best exercises that are suitable for senior adults.
If you wish to stay healthy and mobile well into old age, start walking.
Walking is a perfect way to start exercising and most seniors can do it. This type of moderate-intensity exercise is highly beneficial.
Another good part about walking is that it requires no special equipment, aside from a pair of comfortable walking shoes. Also, it can be done anywhere.

Does Yoga Count Towards My 150 Minutes Of Activity
Most forms of yoga are not strenuous enough to count towards your 150 minutes of moderate activity, as set out by government guidelines.
However, yoga does count as a strengthening exercise, and at least 2 sessions a week will help you meet the guidelines on muscle-strengthening activities.
Activities such as yoga and are also recommended for older adults at risk of falls, to help improve balance and co-ordination.

A More Passive Exercise Approach For Older Adults
There are some days when we cannot keep up with a regular yoga routine. Yet, it is recommended for older adults to engage in regular exercise activities to maintain healthy circulation.

Find An Instructor Or Class That Is Right For You
Whether online or in-person, it’s important to choose a yoga class that matches your skillset. There are many online resources available to help you kick-start your yoga journey — from live classes with Silver Sneakers, modified chair yoga , and filled with instructors who have experience teaching yoga to seniors. Whichever you choose, remember that it’s always okay to start slow. 
Chair & Standing Routines: Ageless Yoga Volume 1
Led by Harvard University Center for Wellness instructor John Schlorholtz, this is a great chair yoga DVD for older adults who have difficulty getting down on the floor. It features a variety of routines that offer you a choice of either sitting in a chair or using a chair for stability while standing.
Know To Modify Or Direct The Poses And Sequences
“In a mixed level class of students over age 50 with many physical problems, especially in ongoing group classes where it is not uncommon to have new students drop in, I recommend starting with simple lying down poses that are generally safe for everyone, yet challenging for more experienced students, such as leg stretches, hip openers and twists. Be sure students with a rounded upper back have adequate support under the head, so their head is level,” says Francina.
Reasons To Practice Yoga In Your 70s And Beyond
1. Improve balance
Yoga tones muscles and works on your proprioception — your sense of position in space. Practicing postures that emphasize standing and balance can help build strength and confidence, too. “About 80 percent of proprioception is in your ankles, so standing poses are important, particularly for people in their 70s,” explains Payne “As you get more sedentary, your sense of balance atrophies. ‘Use it or lose it’ really does apply.”
You can save on eye exams, prescription drugs, hearing aids and more
2. Sharpens your mind
Unfortunately, as we age, our thought processes aren’t as sharp as they once were. The upshot: A 2016 International Review of Psychiatry study reported that practicing yoga relaxation techniques for 30 minutes had immediate beneficial effects on brain function and performance among people with multiple sclerosis. “Focusing on the breath and synchronizing it with movement helps keep the mind clear and engaged,” Atkins says. Breathing exercises such as alternate-nostril breathing help harmonize the left and right hemispheres of the brain, which correlate to the logical and emotional sides of the personality.
3. Boosts mood
Yoga’s combination of breathing, meditation and movement creates an overall sense of well-being. In fact, studies show yoga has a greater impact on enhancing mood and reducing anxiety than other forms of exercise. The reason? Yoga boosts levels of the brain chemical GABA, which helps calm nerves.

Yoga Poses And Exercises For Senior And Old Age
The word ‘Old Age’ gives both positive and negative notions. There are societies where seniors and elderly people are given due respect and they are the guardians. Earlier, they were given admiration not only by the family members but also by the entire neighborhood. But, now the seniors are not taken with the same spirit, especially in the urban culture where the scenarios of elderly people are quite pitiable. In today’s society, they are ignored and disgraced by their own family members. Overlooked and embarrassed are not only the conditions, but They also faced multiple problems or geriatric problems like dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, hypertension, heart, blood sugar, asthma, kidney problems, digestive, cataract, bed sore, pressure sore fractures, osteoporosis, neurological problems, wrinkles, low immunity, tumors, cancer, etc. Problems like myocardial infarction, rheumatoid arthritis, cardiovascular disorders, ischemia, reperfusion, and many cancer diseases are also common.

An Introduction To Gentle Yoga For Older Adults Margaret ManningHealth and Fitness
When I ask the members of the Sixty and Me community what is holding them back from building their dream life after 60, poor health and excess stress are the two most common answers.
It sometimes feels like, by the time we reach our 60s, we have a lifetime of tension locked in our bodies. On the inside, we feel young and vibrant. On the outside, we feel more than a little stiff, tired and out of shape.
The problem is that, when we feel disconnected from our bodies, everything else in our lives suffers. We are more irritable around our friends and family, causing unnecessary tension. We are less likely to get out into the world and pursue our passions. We are limited in our travel options. Simply put, when our bodies are suffering, we suffer.

Have you ever considered trying yoga? September is Yoga Month, so it might just be the perfect time to give it a go!
What is yoga?
Originating in India around 6 B.C., yoga is a mind, body, and spiritual practice that blends physical poses and breathing exercises to achieve peacefulness of body and mind, helping participants relax and manage stress and anxiety.
Also called postures, yoga poses are movements intended to increase flexibility and strength. From lying flat on the floor while completely relaxed to complex moves that require intense balance and practice, yoga poses can range from simple to challenging.
Because breath signifies your vital energy, controlled breathing is a key component of yoga. Yoga practitioners believe that controlling your breathing pattern can help you control your body and calm your mind.
There are many styles, forms, and intensities of yoga. A good choice for stress management, hatha yoga is one of the most common styles; its slower pace and easier movements also make it a good choice for beginners and for seniors.
Safe for older adults?
Older adults should be sure to talk to their healthcare provider before beginning yoga if they have any of the following:
A herniated disk
A risk of blood clots

Exercise Helps Prevent And Counteract Disease:
Heart disease, osteoporosis, depression and diabetes are common diseases among older adults, and are often deadly. Fortunately, adopting a more active lifestyle can contribute to the prevention of these diseases, or reduce the unpleasant symptoms of these diseases if you already have them. If you are at-risk for disease, exercise may be the key to warding off an unpleasant condition.
Treat Students Individually Regardless Of Age
Don’t judge a student by their age, but by their abilities and limitations at any age. “At the beginning of class, ask students if there’s anything specifically wrong that you should know about,” suggests Rosen. This includes chronic conditions such as hypertension and osteoporosis. Of course, you can’t assume everyone has a bad back or arthritic knees because of a few gray hairs, but you job is to figure out which students do need extra help.
As a teacher, you know that anyone can benefit from yoga at any age. “In 40 years of teaching I’ve learned that students of all ages, including octogenarian beginners, can benefit from the safe-practice of all categories of poses,” says Francina. The best thing is to approach them with “great kindness, patience, and props.”
Yoga Keeps The Mind Sharp And Reduces Anxiety
Yoga allows you to slow down your breathing and meditate, creating a quiet time for calm reflection. Giving your mind a break from the frantic pace of everyday life can relieve stress and keep you centered and organized. Many people who practice yoga regularly report improvement in their mood and sleep patterns.

Do Yoga Asanas Boost Immunity In The Elderly
Here again, the Patanjali Yoga Sutras provide a clue. “Heyam Dukham Anaagatam.” It means, ‘Avoid the misery that has not yet come.’ As we grow older, the efficiency of the immune system deteriorates, paving the way for various diseases. Regular practice of yoga techniques such as asanas, pranayama and meditationcan help avoid these conditions. So make your life happier and more fulfilling with yoga.
Beginning Yoga Exercises + Poses For Seniors
Some of the best poses for beginners and seniors are detailed below. Remember to only go as far as you can with each of the postures. Every pose can be modified to meet your needs, but it’s good to consider getting professional instruction rather than going it alone. 
Remember to discuss with your physician for approval before beginning your new yoga regimen. 
Here Are A Few Other Things To Keep In Mind:
Get the head below the level of the heart Inverted postures are a must for aging bodies. For example, recommend that students practice Supported Leg Up the Wall Pose at least 10 minutes a day.
Practice in a way that is appropriate and healing Never force and avoid poses that bear weight directly on the neck and head. People with kyphosis and others at risk for osteoporosis , only under the guidance of an experienced instructor and after they build strength in upper-body strengthening poses, such as Downward and Upward Facing Dog, and .
Build in modifications for challenging asanas. When teaching more difficult poses, make it crystal clear that students can repeat the basic pose that usually precedes the more challenging one, and that using props is perfectly fine.
Focus on lengthening the spine. Lengthen the spine and open the chest in all categories of poses, including forward bends, twists and backbends.
Learn to move from your hip hinge . Keep your upper body in one unit and the spine elongated. If the hamstrings are tight, it’s difficult to bend sideways or forward without rounding and shortening the spine. Using a wall or chair can help someone bend from the hip joint while keeping length in the spine.

Combining cannabis and yoga makes for an enjoyable practice. Achieving a meditative state might seem like a simple task, but some people find it hard to just sit still and “do nothing”. 
If you have trouble turning off your stream of thought, CBD oil can assist you by slowing down your thought processes, replacing them with some calmer vibes. Still, it’s not a magic wand or potion. Also, the intake of CBD can be different, as well as the effects. People react to CBD in various ways.
Yoga Is For Everyone Especially Older Adults
One of the biggest misconceptions about yoga is that it is designed primarily for younger people, who want to increase their flexibility. In reality, no group can benefit more from yoga than older adults.
In the introduction video, Cat talks about one of her students that came to her class with a challenging medical condition. This person was unable to twist or raise her hands above her shoulders, but, after just a few months of practice, she was able to work her way up to a handstand.
Of course, yoga is not a replacement for traditional medicine and you should always talk with your doctor before starting any new exercise program, but, the results that people see are often powerful and surprising.
Gentle yoga is perfect for older adults. It’s easy to get into. It’s a self-paced activity that we can do from the comfort of our own homes. Perhaps most importantly, it addresses many of the specific challenges that we face as we age including sore joints, stress, muscle tension, flexibility and balance.
Reasons Why Older People Should Take Up Yoga
Uncategorized
Yoga is a great way for the elderly to safely improve their physical and mental condition. Starting yoga later in life may seem like a big task, but it is not at all. You can take yoga classes at any age and at any level, even in a chair. But it is important that you find a yoga class that suits your level and needs. The many advantages of yoga for the elderly outweigh any excuse not to do it! That’s why we have listed five advantages of yoga for the elderly.
1. Yoga improves your balance and stability
An ugly fall later in life can have major consequences. For example, many elderly people break their hips. That is why it is important for the elderly to maintain good balance. Many yoga postures focus on this and at the same time strengthen the muscles that contribute to better stability. Yoga not only helps the elderly to prevent falls in the first place, it also helps them to get up and recover from a potential fall if one does occur.
2. Yoga makes you more flexible
The body’s flexibility decreases with age. This can lead to physical limitations, complaints, and accidents. Stretching, and particularly stretching during yoga, makes you more flexible and increases your range of motion. This leads to you being firmer in your shoes and feeling more confident in everyday life.
3. Yoga generates stronger bones and muscles
4. Yoga keeps your brain sharp
5. Yoga makes you happier
Yoga For Seniors Promotes Your Overall Well
Yoga practice is a wonderful form of exercise at any age. Research shows yoga benefits your mental and physical health, helping to strengthen muscles, improve balance, lessen anxiety, improve depression, and decrease your risk of falls.
When beginning a yoga practice, find an in-person beginner’s class or follow along with online videos. Be sure to find a type of yoga that works best for you, looking for classes titled restorative, hatha, beginner, or chair yoga.
When starting any fitness routine, be sure to speak to your physical therapist or healthcare provider. In addition, be sure to schedule your daily Snug check-in so you’re not just healthy, but safe. If your family member or friend opted to receive your daily check-in, they know you safely completed your workout — and perhaps your newly-formed fitness routine will encourage them to start their own.
Exercise Improves Balance For Older Adults:
Falling down is a much bigger deal for older adults than younger ones. Every 11 seconds, an older adult is admitted to an emergency room for a fall-related injury, and every 19 minutes, a senior dies from a fall, according to the National Council of Aging. Though no two falls are alike, and preventing falls is very complex, regular exercise reduces the likelihood of falling by 23%.
Chair Yoga For Seniors: A 30 Minute Routine
You might want to do this chair yoga routine along with your older adult so they can watch your movements.
It’s a fun activity to do together and you’ll get the health benefits too!
The only equipment that’s needed is a sturdy chair that allows your older adult’s feet to touch the floor.
An optional accessory is a belt, , or long hand towel to aid in stretching.
In case you want to skip around, we’ve noted the time markers for each section of the routine.
Warm up poses for heat and circulation This is a great way to warm up the body, improve flexibility, and reduce pain.
This section lasts 10 minutes and could be a nice short routine in itself.
Standing poses for balance and strength These yoga poses are done while holding on to the back of the chair.
If your older adult isn’t strong or balanced enough to do this section safely, it might be safer to skip it.
Lower body poses for flexibility In this section, a belt or strap helps with stretching – any long belt, , small towel, or sturdy rope will do.
Even if your older adult doesn’t use a belt, they can still benefit from the movements.
Shavasana is a restful pose usually done at the end of a yoga class. Just relax and focus on breathing slowly and deeply.

Proven Qigong Benefits + Beginner Exercises
June 10, 2016
Qigong History & Interesting Facts
Qigong is considered a collective term for a long-established, extensive set of exercises first created in China more than 2,000 years ago. As many Eastern medicinal practices continue to gain popularity in the West — including acupuncture, meditation, and yoga — qigong and are also going mainstream.
Eastern practitioners have known about the benefits of qigong for centuries, and today Western scientific research is following-suit, confirming that qigong can help prevent and manage many different health problems. The ancient practice is especially beneficial for older adults and people who are chronically stressed out.
In 2010, a meta-analysis published in the American Journal of Health Promotion found that after reviewing 77 articles on qigong, the research demonstrated consistent, significant benefits associated with the practice. Key benefits include: better bone density, cardiopulmonary effects, physical functioning, reduced falls and related risk factors, improved quality of life, lower psychological symptoms and better immune function.
The Best Types Of Yoga For Senior Citizens
Whether you’re aiming to get stronger and more flexible or you just want to decompress and still your mind, yoga can help. But with the dozens of different styles that exist, it can be tough to figure out which type is most appropriate for you. Remember that a key consideration is your physical condition and fitness level. Always consult your healthcare provider before beginning any new exercise regimen.
Here are eight types of yoga that may offer what you need:
Yoga Improves Flexibility And Joint Health
If you’re looking for a gentle exercise that increases flexibility, yoga is a great option. Flexibility exercises such as yoga are great if your joints tend to be achy or stiff. In a study that looked at the effectiveness of yoga as an exercise to manage osteoarthritis in elderly women, researchers found that it provided therapeutic benefits.
Not only can these low-impact moves loosen your muscles, they can also tone your supporting muscles and help prevent injury.
Your Bones Will Have An Extended Lifespan:
Brittle bones leading to osteoporosis and fractures are quite common in women who are 60-plus. Yoga can help in slowing down the pace at which you are experiencing loss of bone density. The pains and inflammations experienced will also be smoothed out. Studies suggest that women above 60 who practiced yoga for at least 2 years actually gained bone mineral density.
Prevention Against Alzheimer And Parkinson
Here comes a detail I do use in the warm ups of my “chair-groups” with the focus on prevention against Alzheimer and Parkinson:
I let them do horizontal eights with the lumbar region in the vein of sufi circles, bringing the spine far to left and right.
I let them close their eyes and imaging the center of this movement as a wandering star circling perfect eights. I let them circle these eights as symmetric as possible with full concentration.
To end this movement, I give them one minute to let the eights become smaller and smaller, still inhaling front, exhaling back.
I let the eights become so small, that the movement is no more visible, still keeping the rhythm of the breath.
This is a very good way to enhance body coordination and balance. It centers in a verymeditative way. Try!

What To Know Before Your Yoga First Class
Using a chair for balance during your practice is a safe way to build strength & modify poses .
Going to your first yoga class can be daunting, but once you get there, you’ll probably find it’s a friendly and welcoming space! However, this brief overview of what you can expect may help put your mind at ease:
Yoga For Seniors: The Only Guide You Need
Yoga is an easy and safe way to improve both your mental well-being and overall health, especially for people over 60. Yoga for seniors can improve their balance and flexibility.
However, that is not all. The benefits of doing yoga when you’re over 60 are countless. Read on to learn everything about yoga for seniors and all the benefits that come along.
Yoga For Seniors Can Help You Reduce Pain
Chronic pain is a common issue among seniors, especially the pain that’s associated with joint problems and arthritis. However, thanks to yoga, you can say goodbye to the pain. It’s a natural remedy for chronic pain. According to a study made by Sonia Gaur of the psychology department at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center, it was proven that people who practiced yoga for 90 minutes, 3 times per week for 4 weeks, experienced a decrease in aches and pain. Also, most of the patients reduced their intake of pain medications.
Regular Exercise Improves Brain Function:
One of the most remarkable developments in health science is the revelation that the mind and the body are much more closely linked. A healthy body likely means a healthy mind, and seniors that exercise on a regular basis have improved cognitive health, according to research from NCBI. More recently, a study from the Alzheimer’s Research & Prevention Foundation, regular exercise has been shown to reduce your risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease or dementia by nearly 50%.
Why Yoga For Older Adults Is So Important
Since good health is central to finding happiness after 60, I set out to find a solution to the problems of stress, tension and pain that many of you told me that you were dealing with.
After talking with experts in various fields, I settled on gentle yoga as the best place to start and set out to find an amazing teacher. Eventually, I had to send my team all the way to beautiful Bali to work with the amazing, Cat Kabira.
Cat is an amazing woman, filled with warmth, generosity and passion. She has also been teaching yoga for 14 years and has worked with thousands of people over the age of 60. We absolutely fell in love with her!
Before we filmed the actual yoga sequences, we sat down with Cat to film a short introduction to gentle yoga video that you can watch on this page. Our goal was to demystify some of the aspects of yoga and talk about its transformational potential. Even if you decide never to purchase a yoga video or attend a class, I hope that you will take the time to watch this introduction.
Here’s what I learned from Cat’s introduction to gentle yoga for older adults.
Yoga Doesnt Require Any Special Equipment
Another misconception about yoga is that it requires lots of expensive equipment to get started. It’s true that having a yoga mat can make your yoga journey more comfortable – especially if, like me, you have sore knees. But, the truth is that many of the yoga instructors I talked to said that they started without any equipment at all.
In the introduction to gentle yoga video at the end of this article, Cat explains some of the equipment that you might want to consider using. She also provides alternatives to some of the more popular items. For example, books can make an excellent substitution for a yoga block and pillows can replace a bolster.
The bottom line here is that money should never be a reason to avoid starting your yoga journey. Yes, yoga videos, mats, blocks and bolsters help. But, even if you just visit your local library and check out a book on yoga for free, that’s a great start too.
Yoga Can Be A Gateway To A Healthier Life
Perhaps the most important message that I took away from the introduction to gentle yoga for older adults video is that yoga is a gateway to a healthier life. Earlier, we talked about the negative spiral that we enter when our health prevents us from engaging in the world.
The opposite is also true.
As you begin your yoga journey, you will start to feel different in your body and your mind.
As you gain confidence and flexibility, you will be more likely to step out into the world and explore your passions. As you eliminate stress and tension from your body, your relationships with others will improve. As you learn to listen to your body, you will gain an appreciation and respect for the nutrients that it needs and will be more likely to make healthy eating choices.
If I have one wish for our gentle yoga video series, it’s this – I want as many people as possible to get on the path to a healthier life after 60. I want us to break the stereotypes about aging and show the world, and more importantly ourselves, that life after 60 can be filled with vitality, energy and passion.
Have you tried yoga before? What was your experience? What is the one thing that you would most like to get from your yoga practice? What is the one thing preventing you from getting started? Please add your thoughts in the comments below.
Your Guide To The Different Types Of Yoga
Yoga has come a long way in the past few years. Take a look at any studio’s schedule and you’ll see so many different types of yoga, from ashtanga yoga and kundalini yoga to aerial yoga and acro yoga. You might have even heard about — or tried — some of the more modern and unusual iterations of the ancient practice: hip-hop yoga, HIIT yoga, and naked yoga…just to name a few.
Yoga practice is thousands of years old. However, it only arrived in the US in the late 1800s and only firmly took root within the last few decades. Since then, yoga has gone from a practice associated with hippies, to one that’s practiced by nearly 37 million people.
And not all of these millions of people go to a yoga studio to do their downward dogs. If you like to unroll your mat at home you’re not alone: That’s the number one place people practice.
How To Start Practicing Yoga For Seniors
Yoga practice increased dramatically in popularity in recent years, with the number of yoga practitioners raising from 20.4 million to 36 million from 2012 to 2016 according to the Yoga Alliance. In addition, there are more older practitioners than ever before, with over 14 million practitioners over the age of 50.
These numbers tell you that yoga is for everyone — including older adults. With that said, you should always exercise caution when starting a new fitness program. Work directly with your doctor or physical therapist when devising an exercise plan, and work within your fitness level.
Here are a few yoga-for-beginners tips to help you get started: 
Find a yoga teacher: Check your local library, YMCA or YWCA, or Silver Sneakers clubs for a list of yoga classes. You may be surprised to find free or discounted classes for seniors. 
Follow along on YouTube: If you live in a rural area or somewhere that in-person classes are not available to you, follow along with yoga videos online. Below, we’ll share a few yoga videos for seniors. 
Find the type of yoga that works best for you: Hatha yoga, restorative yoga, and yoga with chair exercises are usually more suitable for older adults because they’re slower paced. They involve holding poses for longer periods of time. Vinyasa, ashtanga, and power yoga are fast-paced yoga practices, with inversions and other advanced movements.
Yoga Promotes Good Bone And Joint Health
As you age, your bones naturally lose density and joints become stiffer. A gentle yoga practice can be effective in preventing and slowing bone density loss, and is safe for those with osteoporosis. Whether you are looking to prevent osteoporosis or relieve painful symptoms caused by an existing bone condition or fracture, yoga postures and stretches can be extremely beneficial. Regularly moving your joints can help reduce stiffness and joint tenderness.
Tell your yoga instructor about any bone conditions you have. He or she may be able to provide you with props such as blocks, straps, and inflatable balls that can help you avoid further injuries.
Cbd Helps Prolong The Duration Of The So
Scientific yoga facts prove that when we are feeling blissful, our brain produces the neurotransmitter called Anandamide . Since this blissful neurotransmitter is fragile and it stays in our body only temporarily, we are not always blissful. 
Research has shown that CBD has the power to “defeat” the enzyme responsible for breaking down Anandamide, thus prolonging the state of bliss, which is produced when you’re practicing yoga as well. 
The Best Yoga Studios For Seniors In Nyc
While you can certainly learn yoga from the comfort of your home, taking a yoga class under the guidance of a qualified teacher will allow you to perform the moves correctly and minimize the risk of injury. What’s more, yoga classes foster a sense of community and belonging—the word yoga itself means “connection�?—an important factor in maintaining positive mental health and well-being. 
Here are some of the best yoga studios in New York City with classes for all ability levels, including excellent low-impact options for seniors, where you can stretch, relax, and connect with others.

Harlem
What Kind Of Asanas Are Best For Seniors
If you are easily fatigued, it is best to substitute warm-ups for walking and gentle joint movements, such as wrist and ankle rotations. 
Standing yoga postures such as Triangle Pose .
Yoga postures done while lying on the back or stomach, such as Cobra Pose can help to strengthen the back and increase flexibility in the spine.
Yoga Nidra, or , is by far the most essential part of any yoga practice, and with age, the pose becomes even more essential to help assimilate the effects of yoga practice into the body.
What Type Of Class Should I Look Out For
Classes can vary in duration but typically last between 45 and 90 minutes. A longer class will give you more time for learning breathing and relaxation techniques, and will give the teacher time to work with your individual ability.
It’s worth speaking to a teacher about their approach before you sign up for a class.
Yoga Can Keep The Mind Sharp And Focused
Exercising the mind is just as important as exercising the body, especially in seniors. The simple meditation that yoga practices helps individuals stay centered, energized and relieve stress. It’s even shown to improve moods. By focusing on your thoughts and feelings in addition to your body, you’ll achieve a more overall awareness of self through the practice. Yoga is also shown to help fight feelings of depression, which is very common among seniors.
As you’ve read, yoga can work physical and psychological wonders for the aging population. By incorporating a regular yoga routine, seniors can experience an improvement in their quality of life that can go a long way toward physical and mental health and overall wellness.
Regular yoga and other fitness classes are is available at many Acts communities! Read more about how the Acts Lifestyle can help you achieve a healthy and fulfilling retirement.

Preface
Artemis: It’s ok to care a lot. To care too much. I think it’s really sweet that you care so deeply about everyone in your life. I don’t find it silly at all. I don’t think you’re a stupid girl. I don’t think you’re weak and I don’t think you should change this about yourself. Make a million playlists for a million different heartbreaks because at the end of your life, wouldn’t you rather have those memories to hold on to? Remember them? Know that you allowed yourself to feel such depth? The Fowl: Janus tells me that I’m looking for love in the wrong places, and I feel like I’m wasting my emotions, time, energy, and grief. Artemis: So what? So what if you are? Even if it comes from a misguided place those feelings and emotions are still real. If you’re looking for the Osaka Castle in Kyoto you won’t find what you’re looking for but you may stumble upon the Fushimi Inari Taisha, something equally fascinating and deserving of exploration. Are you going to wallow because you didn’t find what you were looking for? Do you throw your hands up and go home or do you climb it and appreciate the things you find along the way? The Fowl: That’s a good one. I’m mad at how good that metaphor is. But I still feel that they’re just a bunch of misguided steps that could have been avoided. Shiva tells me that I seek discomfort and stress because it’s the only condition I actually feel comfortable in. Artemis: So that’s something you work on not something you should invalidate or feel bad about. It’s not your fault that you are like this. It’s not your fault. The Fowl: But I am so self-destructive. And other-destructive. I feel like a tornado who can’t stop hurting everyone and everything in her path including herself. Artemis: A tornado forms due to the build-up of the pressure of a million gusts of wind. A tornado doesn’t wish to form herself. It’s not the tornado’s fault. It’s not your fault. The Fowl: I feel like I’m too old to be listening to Lorde. Artemis: You’re never too old to listen to Lorde. The Fowl: Really? Artemis: Really. The Fowl: I feel fat. I am fat. Artemis: You’re not fat. How is it even possible that you feel fat? The Fowl: I don’t know. I felt the most beautiful when I was underweight. I like the anorexic look. Artemis: But anorexia is a disease; why would you want to look diseased? You look and you are so healthy right now. Full of life and power and energy. The Fowl: But I was more beautiful then. Artemis: *gives up* The Fowl: I’m addicted to heartbreak. Artemis: Yes, yes you are. And you go to great lengths to find and manufacture it in your head baby. You use it to self-soothe. But it’s alright. It’s not your fault. It’s the only way in which you existed in your childhood: heartbroken. All you experienced was heartbreak, all you knew was heartbreak. You don't know anything else. The only things you knew were fear, guilt, and shame. You have no idea how sincerely happy you have the opportunity, the right to be. But you’ll get there one day. The Fowl: A stable relationship could never fulfill me the way a situationship doomed from the start could. Artemis: And that’s why you go after all these unavailable men. Physically, emotionally, worse when it’s both. Because you already know how it ends and there’s nothing you crave more than the heartbreak. And that’s why you’re so scared of commitment because you know that it’ll be the complete opposite of what you know and you’re afraid of being out of your comfort zone, afraid of letting yourself find happiness. Afraid of breaking the chains that have held you since before you were born. You’re not gonna wake up one day and decide that today’s the day you’re ready to commit. That it’s been 3-5 years since you said that maybe you’ll be ready in 3-5 years. Oh baby you have so much to learn and so much room to grow. You always have and you always will. The Fowl: Do you think that people who were loved properly as children can be artists? Artemis: I don't know. I mean they sure can be and maybe I'm just romanticizing trauma but I feel that having no trauma limits the degrees of intensity to which you can feel. Thus, those who’ve experienced the lowest lows can too depict the highest of highs. Are all those who are traumatized artists? No. Does it hurt? Definitely not. The Fowl: Wow. That makes sense actually. But then again you’re just a figment of my imagination, so I have no idea if that actually has any merit. Artemis: You can’t discount us like that. You love having conversations with me. The Fowl: I know I do. Higher highs, lower lows, but it’s only fun for a while before you realize that all you want eventually is stability right? Artemis: Yeah, but you’re not there yet. You’re getting there but admit it Lucia you love this feeling. You love this self-induced, subconsciously orchestrated heartbreak. You fucking love it. Lucia: I really do. The Fowl: Do you think that people want to read what I have to write? Artemis: They absolutely do. You know this. They’ve told you. The Fowl: I know but I feel so silly. Artemis: We’ve been over this. How many people do you think exist who are like you? The Fowl: Probably tons. Artemis: Probably. And the way you are able to articulate exactly as all those people feel? Think about how many people feel alone. How many people don’t have the incredible friends that you have who help you through this? Think of how much your writing could help them. Your writing has so much value. “Flaws, Chaos, Wreckage and All” That’s what you wanted to call it right? Plus you're hot. It doesn’t even need to be that good. The Fowl: Ok, insulting. Artemis: I’m your favourite person to talk to, aren’t I? The Fowl: Yeah, probably. Do you really think that people want to hear what I have to say? Artemis: Remember when we realized that we need to live as if we’re rich white men? Do you think that a rich white man ever doubts whether people want to hear what he has to say? A white man you know is writing a TREATISE. That white man thinks that what he has to say has enough value to be considered a TREATISE, darling. Darling me oh my. Do you know why all philosophers are rich white men? It’s because they’re the only ones with enough confidence to publish what they write, baby. Human greatness rests on humanity’s willingness and ability to communicate it. The Fowl: Wow, Jesus you’re convincing. Ok well. I already proclaimed it and Dionysus has already promised to buy at least 10 copies when I publish it so. Artemis: You already spoke it into the world baby. Self publish like Rumi, Su Shi, Rupi Kaur, and all the other greats. *The author would like to make a note that the above phrase is meant to be read sarcastically* *The author would also like to note that this is, in fact, an homage to Hofstadter* The Fowl: Ok, so what’s the first step? Should I wait until I have enough good things to say? Artemis: No, you’ve already outgrown some of the stuff you’ve written in the past. Why do you think that there will come a point when you have gathered enough experiences worth reading about and that’s when you’re going to be ready to publish? You should only feel that way on your death bed. Your life is going to keep happening and boy, I know yours is a damn interesting one. Filled with so much drama and chaos and love and loss. Remember what you’ve been told: “You are loved from all corners of the world.” The Fowl: Ok, so I just do it then? It’s not... Artemis: Why do you even have doubts? The Fowl: Because I don’t believe in myself. Artemis: I believe in you. And I’m literally the goddess of wisdom. The Fowl: And I’m just a chick. And a fool.  Artemis: That was funny. The Fowl: Why can’t you just laugh? Why announce it? Artemis: There are levels to this shit ok? The Fowl: Wait hold on Athena is the goddess of wisdom.
Artemis: Wait fuck you’re right how did I fuck that up? Rick Riordan would be so disappointed. 
The Fowl: Whatever. Back to the thing. We’re calling it “Flaws, Chaos, Wreckage and All” right?
Artemis. I’m not writing this book, you are. Is that what you want to call–” The Fowl: Yes! That is exactly what I want to call my anthology. Artemis: Darling you’re misusing that term. The Fowl: Then what do we call it? A book of poetry or prose or writing doesn’t quite cover it. Artemis: Call it a treatise. A treatise on emotion. The Fowl: Holy fuck I fucking love it. “Flaws, Chaos, Wreckage and All: A Treatise on Emotion” by Y. H. Zhang. FUCK I LOVE IT HOLY FUCK. Artemis: I’m glad you like it, dear. 🥺 I’m very proud of you, dear. You’re one of the smartest people I know. One of the smartest, most self-aware, most conscientious, most courageous, most loving, most thoughtful, most beautiful, most righteous people that I know. You really really don’t give yourself enough credit. The Fowl: That’s a lot coming from you, Artemis. Artemis: And I mean it. I mean every bit. See how I didn’t include some things like “selfless” or “kind”? Because we’re still working on that. But the ones I said I mean with full sincerity. The Fowl: I don’t know how to handle all this praise. Artemis: Accept it, dear it’s yours. Anyone who knows you could not be clearer of this. The Fowl: Hehe yeah, I think you’re right. My friends do praise me a lot. But I think I tune it out because I don’t love myself. Artemis: We all do. It’s a process. The Fowl: This conversation seems drawn out. Artemis: Does it? Or are you simply uncomfortable being praised? The Fowl: ummmmmhhMmm Artemis: Because I’ve just started. I can go on and on for days about how magnificent of a person you are. I mean I can also go on and on for days about the mistakes you’ve made and the people you’ve hurt too. But that’s the beauty of it. If you’re not making mistakes you’re not learning. You’re not going out of your comfort zone. You’re capping the level of your opponent, Life, at only 30 exp. If you’re always winning at life you’re not advancing in it. I once read an article that said that you should be failing at least half of the goals you set. Because if all your goals are within reason and achievable, then you’re not setting them high enough. You’re selling yourself short. So become a poet, and a musician, and a choreographer and dancer, and get a Norwegian green card and a regular green card and have four kids and get married and stay married. And have your own flower shop, publish and write and read to your heart’s content, be an equestrian, surf and dive and break the world record for women’s freediving. Speak nineteen languages and fall in love and stay in love and remain in love. And be buried under a tree that your great-grandkids can play under. And raise kind, loving children and cook vegan food for all your friends and have Lucia’s Club be a thing and love so much. And love so much. And love so much. The Fowl: That was really really intimate. It makes me want to publish even more. Artemis: It should! The Fowl: Wow, you really are just as insightful and knowledgeable about life as any of the men I’ve put on pedestals. Artemis: I am literally a statue placed on top of a pedestal. The Fowl: I think I need to apologize to you. Artemis: I’m listening. The Fowl: I’m sorry that I don’t believe in you enough. I’m sorry that I don’t love you enough. I’m sorry that I treat you in any way other than with kindness and love and compassion. I’m sorry that you’re the last person I’m apologizing to. I’m sorry that I’m going to keep hurting you despite knowing all this. But I want you to know that I’m trying, every day, to love you more. Trying, I promise you. Sometimes it’s easier and sometimes it’s oh so difficult but I’m sorry and I promise you, despite how scary it is to make that commitment, to keep loving you more and more every day. To console you, to trust you, to believe in you, to nurture you, to nourish you, to give you everything you need to succeed, even though I’m not even sure what that means. I promise to take care of you. Mentally, spiritually, physically, emotionally, intellectually. I promise to not let you get carried away with your playtime, to get involved with things that are bad for you, and to cultivate the things that are good for you. Because you really are yourself such a treasure. You yourself are as brilliant and incredible, and beautiful, and deserving of love, deserving of care, as any of the men you cherish. I am so sorry that I’ve been bad to you. Artemis: Thank you. It’s not your fault. It’s all written in the stars or in a book somewhere. I’m really glad that you can acknowledge this. I’m also really proud of you. You’re young to have realized this. Many people go their entire lives without ever even meeting their Artemis. The Fowl: I know, I’m so, so lucky to have you. Artemis: I’m lucky to have you.
