The Spirit Creator

So the conversation went like this

M: Is there a god?

Y: There is but not in the form that people think it is.

M: So what it is?

Y: I cannot really answer that question. However, you may perceive God form in the story that follows. It is a story of a young man who loves to read the story of the deceased spirits because he believes that by reading their books he will be able to find the secret of life. He is particularly fond of one book who tell the tales of this wonderful king and warrior who was touched by the grace of God.  He had built an army of followers who were ready to die for him so that God's ultimate scheme for his life could be accomplished. He is so fond of the story that he decide to become a follower of the precepts and advice of the deceased spirit so that he is able to meet his destiny.

M: Isn't it how most religions are organised, we have a prophet who help us to find our way to God.

Y: Yes, it appears to be a mean to an end. One must be careful to distinguish messages from the invisible to messages from the deceased spirit.

M: Why?

Y: Choosing the deceased spirit as the creator of one's life can be disastrous. God scheme for the deceased life has already been accomplished. He followed his own heart in the context in which he lived, he developed his own practice and conducted his behaviour to fit in with people he was with at a particular point in time. The life of the deceased may be quite different from the lives of most people today. The same applies to the self-help books of the living being who are too quick to direct the lost soul. The lover of books can forget to listen to himself and experience the Now. Before he knows it, all spirits are directing his or her life.

M: so how to distinguish the spirits from God so we accomplish our own scheme.

Y: Good question. This is quest, we all have to go through.

Ph.D Research - Can you make yourself irreplaceable?

A while ago, I had dinner with this lovely young eastern European woman. It was our first encounter. She has been living in the UK for only two weeks. she had already a job and an accommodation. We started talking about our academic achievement. She mentioned that she had a master in digital literature. I suggested that she could possibly do her Ph.D at the University of Reading. She shrugged and said  'I have been working as a research administrator in a university for two years. I was the one who convinced students not to do their Ph.D.  Ph.D students slave themselves away for three years of their life. They carry out valuable research, write papers and go to conference, yet they are underpaid and they will probably not get a job at the end of it. Academia is an industry where Ph.D are a herd being truthfully exploited.' It was partially true. I started my Ph.D to escape the dogma of some other mainstream form of exploitation I wanted to be my own project. Academ...

How can you get a Ph.D.Scholarship?

Every two weeks or so I am meeting up with my Ph.D supervisors to talk about my research topic. At out last meeting, we finalise my research question... --- 2 Years ago, 1 month after starting my new job, 3 month after finishing my studies, it was clear for me that I wanted to go back to academia. I set up myself to gain a bit of experience and look for a new job. 18 month ago, I had two interviews, one for a knowledge transfer partnership leading to Ph.D with Birmingham City University and one for a Ph.D with Cranfield University on Sustainability and Communications. Deep inside it was not really what I was looking for. 12 month ago, I almost gave up finding the Ph.D. Then, I changed my mind. I systematically send emails to to find the gap where I could jump in 9 month ago I applied for Design Star with the intention to investigate how design for sustainable behaviour and eco-design will contribute to the concept of the Circular Economy. 2 month ago, I started my Ph...
