ALBERT EINSTEIN
"IIf everything exists as the substance of its' qualities, and if qualities exist only in mind, then "ALL IS MIND"
There are those who throughout my life have taught me by their examples. Their examples have opened doors to my world.
In 1946, Albert Einstein called r.acism America’s “worst disease.” Earlier that year, he told students and faculty at Lincoln University in Pennsylvania, the oldest Black college in the Western world, that ràcial segregation was “not a disease of colored people, but a diseàse of w.hite people, adding, “I willl not remain silent about it.”
When Albert Einstein moved to America, he was disappointed to see how Black people were being treated. Even in his new hometown of Princeton, he observed separation of the w.hite and Black societies. Einstein thought of sègregation as “unacceptable.”
Albert Einstein rarely accepted honorary doctorates but he did so for Lincoln University, in 1946. He also gave a lecture before a small group of students who are seen with him in the photo, and also taught Black university students but the press didn't like to publicise it as the idea of educated èqual Black people scared the establishment.

“It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.”
“Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe.”

JACK JOHNSON
Beside being the first heavyweight champion, Jack Johnson drove race cars against the best drivers of his time, he invented and patented a new type of wrench, read Shakespeare;, loved opera; and he played classical viol. A truly amazing man..!!
"Johnson had experience in many fields other than prizefighting. He had been a house painter, a dock worker, a coral fisher, a groom, a clerk, a musician, a bullfighter, a volunteer secret agent in World War I for the U.S. Government, and possibly also for the Kaiser, a nightclub owner, a wrestler, a preacher, a physical instructor, a camp cook, an actor, a beer salesman, a political orator, a patron of the arts and one of the most celebrated convicts ever to serve a prison term in the U.S. He was rated among the biggest eaters and drinkers of his time and was probably also the only Negro ever to deliver an address on the golden rule before a klavern of the Ku Klux Klan. He was matched in a foot race with a kangaroo, in a wrestling bout with a boa constrictor and in an extraordinary contest of another sort with Grigori Rasputin, the notorious monk at the court of Nicholas II."

BOB DYLAN
- "I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine"
I dreamed I saw St. Augustine
Alive as you or me
Tearing through these quarters
In the utmost misery
With a blanket underneath his arm
And a coat of solid gold
Searching for the very souls
Whom already have been sold.
"Arise, arise", he cried so loud
With a voice without restraint
"Come out ye gifted kings and queens
And hear my sad complaint
No martyr is among ye now
Whom you can call your own
So go on your way accordingly
But know you're not alone".
I dreamed I saw St. Augustine
Alive with fiery breath
And I dreamed I was amongst the ones
That put him out to death
Oh, I awoke in anger
So alone and terrified
I put my fingers against the glass
And bowed my head and cried.

MILES DAVIS
Miles Davis has always served as a model of creativity He was true to his craft. His music came first, and in performance would sometimes turn his back on the audience to better focus on his playing. In my opinion he was the most important Jazz musician of all time. He repeatedly reinvented himself over a long and illustrious career, and he was a mentor to a great many younger musicians.
COMMENTS FROM HIS HONKY tONK RECORDING:: Miles Davis is a genius of music.
Listening to his music increases the intellect.
Miles's trumpet solo kills, his presence is just unbelievable, absolutely magic !
The best song ever in my opinion
This is some kick ass FUNK 🎺🎺🎺🎵

PARAMAHANSA YOGANANDA
Paramahansa Yogananda wrote the book, Autobiography of a Yogi, the most spiritually influential material I have ever encountered.. I was transported by his powerful narratives, and have a deeper understanding as a result.
The appropriately named Self Realization Fellowship, which he founded, has continued to pass on his teachings. He was a living miracle and a true saint.

JANE GOODALL
For both her writings on spirituality and the effects that her groundbreaking chimpanzee discoveries had on how humans see themselves, Goodall was awarded the 2021 Templeton Prize, an award that honors people whose scientific work sheds light on “the deepest questions of the universe and humankind’s place and purpose within it.” She joins the ranks of other Templeton laureates, who include the Dalai Lama, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, physicist Freeman Dyson, and other religious leaders, scientists, philosophers, and humanitarians.
Best known for her long-term field studies of chimpanzees in Tanzania’s Gombe National Park, which began in 1960, Goodall and her studies of their personalities, family bonds, and rituals helped transform the public’s view of animals. She discovered they use tools, wage war, form tight mother-baby bonds, and show compassion—more like humans than anyone had considered.
