Harold and Maude

I have just read " Harold and Maude ", it's the story of a 18 years old young boy who fall in love with a 80 years old woman because she is young in her head.
She teaches to him how to smoke, to drive fast by car, to not respect the authority (police.....), then they make love and he says to his family that he wants to get married to her.

 

I have never understood why the old person want to be young person in their head, "in the wind", like the ancient of "mai68".

The old age is great in itself.

The Six Enneads

I recommend to read The Six Enneads, the major writing of Plotinus, the neoplatonist mystic.

"In this state of absorbed contemplation, there is no longer any question of holding an object in view; the vision is such that seeing and seen are one; object and act of vision have become identical"    

From Plotinus, in Enneads, 38:6:35

Three dimensions space

In physics there are no pure facts. All the physics begins with a projection of the nature in a space in three dimensions in order to establish theses facts in a spacial reality. 

The pure fact is out of reach the mathematical physics

What is called thinking ?

"The most thought-provoking thing in our thought-provoking time is that we are still not thinking."

 Martin Heidegger. What is Called Thinking?

 

Is Martin Heidegger all right ? Can "thinking" be anything else ?
