A dramatic new feature dominates the landscape in the arid south of Iberia. Europe’s very first, commercially-run, solar energy plant was recently opened in the Spanish town of Sanlúcar la Mayor, Seville. Surrounded by an area as big as 300 football fields covered in mirrors, a cylindrical, 115 metre high solar tower showcases the latest technology. 624 huge mirrors called ‘heliostats’ circle the structure from the ground and automatically track the sun as it moves from east to west. Each 120 square metre mirror reflects the sun’s rays, beaming them back to converge on a receiver at the top of the tower. Intense temperatures of up to 250 degrees centigrade generate steam, which is blasted into turbines to produce electricity for up to 6,000 homes – all without emitting a single whiff of greenhouse gas!
Over the next six years, another 300 megawatt solar platform will be built on the Sanlúcar site, producing power to light up some 180,000 homes, enough for a city the size of Seville. The wider project is expected to prevent annual emissions of at least 600,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide. The BBC science correspondent, David Shukman, reported being amazed by the spectacle. “From a distance, I couldn’t believe the strange structure ahead of me was actually real,” he says. “A concrete tower, 40 storeys high, stood bathed in intense white light – a bizarre image in the depths of the Andalusian country-side. The tower looked like it was being hosed with giant sprays of water or was somehow being squirted with jets of pale gas. I had trouble working it out.” With the most available sunshine of any European country, Spain is leading the way in developing solar energy with projects happening across the country. Solar panels are now compulsory on all new and renovated buildings as part of the Spanish government’s efforts to meet its 12 per cent objective of energy from renewables by 2010. Another solar power plant is to be built near Granada later on this year, and a gigantic 750 megawatt solar tower near the capital, Madrid, is in the planning stages.
THE WAY OF HARMONY Aikido was founded by Morihei Ueshiba (1883-1969), who gained the skill to control many attackers at will. He was unique in his ability to express his understanding of universal principles and laws of nature. He was also a very spiritual person who spent years in study, prayer and contemplation. This is a martial art of Peace that develops in us an acute awareness of our surrounding environment, the ability to be calm, focused, relaxed and centred. Millions of Aikido practitioners around the World experience the positive benefits of... Aikido - The Way of Harmony
POEMS
" The book of Sufi wisdom Is not written on the blank page, But on a heart white as virgin snow. Scholars pursue pen marks. Sufis track footprints in the snow, Like hunters tracing a musk – deer’s trail, Until they breathe in the sweet scent That the deer exudes from its navel, And rush to catch their quarry " Rumi
" What do we mean by the word 'wisdom'? Usually we mean something superior to knowledge, something deeper. In the spiritual world, the word 'wisdom' is not used in that way. Here wisdom means Light, illumining Light, transforming Light. That which illumines our unlit consciousness is wisdom. That which transforms the finite consciousness into the infinite Consciousness is called wisdom " Sri Chinmoy
" Whoever does not rise when it is time to rise, who, though young and strong, is lazy, who is weak in will and thought, that lazy and idle person will not find the path of wisdom "
" Watching one's speech, restraining well the mind, let one not commit any wrong with one's body. Whoever keeps these three roads of action clear, will make progress on the path taught by the wise "
" Through meditation wisdom is gained; through lack of meditation wisdom is lost. Whoever knows this double path of progress and decline, should place oneself so that wisdom will grow " Buddha
" If I have been of service, if I have glimpsed more of the nature and essence of ultimate good, if I am inspired to reach wider horizons of thought and action, if I am at peace with myself, it has been a successful day "
Alex Noble
" To understand reality is not the same as to know about outward events. It is to perceive the essential nature of things. The best-informed man is not necessarily the wisest. Indeed there is a danger that precisely in the multiplicity of his knowledge he will lose sight of what is essential. But on the other hand, knowledge of an apparently trivial detail quite often makes it possible to see into the depth of things. And so the wise man will seek to acquire the best possible knowledge about events, but always without becoming dependent upon this knowledge. To recognize the significant in the factual is wisdom " Dietrich Bonhoeffer
" The truest greatness lies in being kind, the truest wisdom in a happy mind " Ella Wheeler Wilcox
SAYINGS
" No question is so difficult to answer as that to which the answer is obvious " " We are made wise not by the recollection of our past, but by the responsibility for our future " George Bernard Shaw
" Science is organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life " Immanuel Kant
" Besides the noble art of getting things done, there is the noble art of leaving things undone. The wisdom of life consists in the elimination of non-essentials " Lin Yutang
" The perfection of wisdom, and the end of true philosophy is to proportion our wants to our possessions, our ambitions to our capacities, we will then be a happy and a virtuous people "
Mark Twain
" Knowledge is a process of piling up facts; wisdom lies in their simplification " Martin Fischer
" If facts are the seeds that later produce knowledge and wisdom, then the emotions and the impressions of the senses are the fertile soil in which the seeds must grow " Rachel Carson
" It is a thousand times better to have common sense without education than to have education without common sense " Robert Green Ingersoll
" It's so simple to be wise. Just think of something stupid to say and then don't say it " Sam Levenson
" We learn wisdom from failure much more than from success. We often discover what will do, by finding out what will not do; and probably he who never made a mistake never made a discovery " Samuel Smiles
" Kindness is more important than wisdom, and the recognition of this is the beginning of wisdom " Theodore Rubin
" These days people seek knowledge, not wisdom. Knowledge is of the past, wisdom is of the future " Vernon Cooper
" Six essential qualities that are the key to success: Sincerity, personal integrity, humility, courtesy, wisdom, charity " William Menninger
QUOTES
" Without courage, wisdom bears no fruit " Baltasar Gracian
" The happiest man is he who learns from nature the lesson of worship " Ralph Waldo Emerson
" It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change " Charles Darwin
a collection of quotations from Ralph Waldo Emerson who is perhaps the most widely quoted American writer and many of Emerson's essays are simply packed with quotable quotes.
" Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense "
" Is it so bad, then, to be misunderstood? Pythagoras was misunderstood, and Socrates, and Jesus, and Luther, and Copernicus, and Galileo, and Newton, and every pure and wise spirit that ever took flesh. To be great is to be misunderstood "
" A chief event of life is the day in which we have encountered a mind that startled us "
" The only way to have a friend is to be one "
" When Nature has work to be done, she creates a genius to do it "
" The reward of a thing well done, is to have done it "
" What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have not been discovered "
" There are always two parties; the establishment and the movement "
" What lies behind us and what lies before us are small matters compared to what lies within us "
" The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship "
" Whatever you do, you need courage. Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising that tempt you to believe your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires some of the same courage that a soldier needs. Peace has its victories, but it takes brave men and women to win them "
" That which we persist in doing becomes easier for us to do; not that the nature of the thing itself is changed, but that our power to do is increased "
" It was a high counsel that I once heard given to a young person, ‘Always do what you are afraid to do "
