http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kayfabe

Inprofessional wrestling,kayfabe (pronounced/kefeb/)is the portrayal of events within the industry as "real".Specifically, the portrayal of professional wrestling, in particular the competition and rivalries between participants, as

being genuine or not of aworkednature. Referring to events or interviews as being a "chore" means that the

event/interview has been "kayfabed" or staged, or is part of a wrestlinganglewhile being passed off as legitimate.Kayfabe has also evolved to become a code word of sorts for maintaining this "reality" within the realm of the general

public.

Kayfabe is often seen as thesuspension of disbeliefthat is used to create the non-wrestling aspects of promotions, suchasfeuds,angles, andgimmicks,in a similar manner with other forms of entertainment such as soap operaorfilm.Inrelative terms, a wrestler breaking kayfabe during a show would be likened to anactorbreaking characteron camera.Also, since wrestling is performed in front of a live audience, whose interaction with the show is crucial to the show's

success (seepop), one might compare kayfabe to thefourth wall,since there is hardly any conventional fourth wall tobegin with.

In years past, one tool that promoters and wrestlers had in preserving kayfabe was in their ability to attract a loyal paying

audience in spite of limited or nearly nonexistent exposure. Professional wrestling has long been shunned by mainstream

media due to lingering doubts over its legitimacy, and its presentation on television was largely limited to self-produced

programming, not unlikeinformercialsof the present day. Scrutiny existed only in limited circumstances, where incertain U.S. states, promoters had to deal with activist athletic commissioners. It was commonplace for wrestlers to adhere

to kayfabe in public, even when outside the ring and off-camera, in order to preserve the illusion that the competition in pro

wrestling was not staged. This was due in no small part to feuds between wrestlers sometimes lasting for years, and which

could be utterly destroyed in seconds if they were shown associating as friends in public, and thus potentially affect ticket

revenue.

"Thy kingdom come"

The request for God's kingdom to come is usually interpreted as a reference to the belief, common at the time, that a

Messiah figure would bring about a Kingdom of God.

Traditionally the coming of God's Kingdom is seen as a divine gift to be prayed for,

not a human achievement.

This idea is frequently challenged by groups who believe that the Kingdom will come by the hands of those faithful to work

for a better world. It is believed by these individuals that Jesus' commands to feed the hungry and clothe the needy are

the Kingdom to which he was referring.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamaka

The Yamaka (;Palifor "pairs") is part of thePali Canon,the scriptures ofTheravadaBuddhism.It is included

in theAbhidhamma Pitaka,which according to the scriptures themselves was taught bythe Buddhahimself. Scholarsdo not take this literally, though some have suggested that some central ideas of the Abhidhamma may go back to him.

The book is in ten chapters, each dealing with a particular topic of Buddhist doctrine: roots, aggregatesand so on. Thetreatment is by way of questions and answers: Is X Y? But is Y X? This pairing of converse questions gives the book its

name, which means "pair" inPali.In addition to the identity questions above, the main types are:For a person (and/or in a place) that X arises/arose/will arise/cease, does/did/will Y ... ?

Buddhism (Pali/Sanskrit:Buddha Dharma) is areligionandphilosophyencompassing a variety of traditions,

beliefs and practices, largely based on teachings attributed toSiddhartha Gautama,commonly known as

theBuddha(Pli/Sanskrit"the awakened one"). The Buddha lived and taught in the northeasternIndiansubcontinentsome time between the 6th and 4th centuries BCE.[1]He is recognized byBuddhistsasanawakenedor enlightened teacher who shared his insights to helpsentient beingsendsuffering(ordukkha),

achievenirvana,and escape what is seen as acycle of suffering and rebirth.

Two major branches of Buddhism are recognized:Theravada("The School of the Elders") andMahayana("The Great

Vehicle"). Theravadathe oldest surviving branchhas a widespread following inSri LankaandSoutheast Asia.Mahayana is found throughoutEast Asiaand includes the traditions ofPure Land,Zen,NichirenBuddhism,Tibetan Buddhism,Shingon,TendaiandShinnyo-en.In some classificationsVajrayanaasubcategory of Mahayana practiced in Tibet and Mongoliais recognized as a third branch. While Buddhism remains mostpopular within Asia, both branches are now found throughout the world. Estimates of Buddhists worldwide vary

significantly depending on the way Buddhist adherence is defined. Lower estimates are between 350500 million.[2]Buddhist schoolsvary on the exact nature of the path toliberation,the importance andcanonicity of variousteachings and scriptures,and especially their respective practices.[3]The foundations of Buddhist tradition andpractice are theThree Jewels:the Buddha, theDharma(the teachings), and theSangha(the community). Taking

"refugein the triple gem" has traditionally been a declaration and commitment to being on the Buddhist path and ingeneral distinguishes a Buddhist from a non-Buddhist.[4]Other practices may include followingethical precepts,

support of the monastic community,renouncingconventional living and becoming amonastic,the development

ofmindfulnessand practice ofmeditation,cultivation of higher wisdom and discernment, study ofscriptures,devotionalpractices, ceremonies, and in the Mahayana tradition, invocation of buddhas andbodhisattvas.

Sentient being

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentient_beings_(Buddhism)

Sentient beings is a technical term inBuddhistdiscourse. Broadly speaking, it denotes beings

withconsciousnessorsentienceor, in some contexts,lifeitself.[1]Specifically, it denotes the presence of the five

aggregates, orskandhas.[2]While distinctions in usage and potential subdivisions or classes of sentient beings vary fromone school, teacher, or thinker to anotherand there is debate within some Buddhist schools as to what exactly constitutessentience and how it is to be recognized[citation needed]it principally refers to beings in contrast with buddhahood.That is, sentient beings are characteristically notenlightened,and are thus confined to the death, rebirth,

andsufferingcharacteristic ofSasra.[3]However,MahayanaBuddhism simultaneously teaches (intheTathagatagarbha doctrineparticularly) that sentient beings also containBuddha-naturethe intrinsic potentialto transcend the conditions of samsara and attain enlightenment, thereby becoming a Buddha.[4]In Mahayana Buddhism,

it is to sentient beings that theBodhisattva vowof compassion is pledged. Furthermore, and particularly inTibetanBuddhismandJapanese Buddhism,all beings (including plant life and even inanimate objects or entities considered

spiritual or metaphysical by conventional Western thought) are or may be considered sentient beings.[5][6]

Those who greatly enlighten illusion are Buddhas; those who aregreatly deluded about enlightenment are sentient beings.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentience

Sentience is the ability tofeel,orperceive,or beconscious,or have subjective experiences. 18th century philosophers

used the term to distinguish the ability to think ("reason") from the ability to feel ("sentience"). In modern western

philosophy, sentience is the ability to havesensationsor experiences (known as "qualia"). For Eastern philosophy,sentience is a metaphysical quality of all things that requires respect and care. The term is central to the philosophy

ofanimal rights,because sentience implies the ability tosuffer,which entails certain rights. In science fiction, a non-human character described as "sentient" will typically have similar abilities, qualities and rights to a human being.

In the philosophy ofconsciousness,"sentience" can refer to the ability of any entity to have subjective perceptual

experiences, or "qualia".[1]This is distinct from other aspects of themindandconsciousness,such

ascreativity,intelligence,sapience,self-awareness,andintentionality(the ability to have thoughts that meansomething or are "about" something). Sentience is a minimalistic way of defining "consciousness", which is otherwise

commonly used to collectively describe sentience plus other characteristics of the mind.

Some philosophers, notablyColin McGinn,believe that sentience will never be understood, a position known as "New

Mysterianism". They do not deny that most other aspects ofconsciousnessare subject to scientific investigation but

they argue thatsubjective experienceswill never be explained; i.e., sentience is the only aspect of consciousness that

can't be explained. Other philosophers (such asDaniel Dennett)disagree, arguing that all aspects of consciousness will

eventually yield to scientific investigation.

Although the term "sentience" is avoided by majorartificial intelligencetextbooks and researchers,[4]it is sometimes

used in popular accounts of AI to describe "human level or higher intelligence" (orstrong AI). This is closely related to

the use of the term inscience fiction.Some sources reserve the term "sapience"for human level intelligence and makea distinction between "sentience" and "sapience".[citation needed]

Artificial intelligence (AI) is theintelligenceof machines and the branch ofcomputer sciencethat aims to create it. AI

textbooks define the field as "the study and design of intelligent agents"[2]where anintelligent agentis a system thatperceives its environment and takes actions that maximize its chances of success.[3]John McCarthy,who coined the

term in 1956,[4]defines it as "the science and engineering of making intelligent machines."[5]The field was founded on the claim that a central property of humans, intelligencethesapienceofHomo sapienscan be so precisely described that it can be simulated by a machine.[6]This raises philosophical issues about the nature ofthemindand the ethics of creating artificial beings, issues which have been addressed bymyth,fictionandphilosophy

since antiquity.[7]Artificial intelligence has been the subject of optimism,[8]but has also suffered setbacks[9]and, today,has become an essential part of the technology industry, providing the heavy lifting for many of the most difficult problems

in computer science.[10]

SAPIENCE

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sapience#SapienceWisdom is a deep understanding and realizing of people, things, events or situations, resulting in the ability to choose or act

or inspire to consistently produce the optimum results with a minimum of time, energyorthought.It is the ability tooptimally (effectively and efficiently) apply perceptions and knowledge and so produce the desired results. Wisdom is also

the comprehension of what is true or right coupled with optimum judgment as to action. Synonyms include: sagacity,

discernment, or insight. Wisdom often requires control of one's emotional reactions (the "passions") so that one's principles,

reason and knowledge prevail to determine one's actions.

A basicphilosophicaldefinition of wisdom is to make the best use ofknowledge.[1]The opposite of wisdom isfolly.

Theancient Greeksconsidered wisdom to be an importantvirtue,personifiedas

thegoddessesMetisandAthena.ToSocratesandPlato,philosophy was literally the love of Wisdom (philo-

sophia). This permeates Plato'sdialogues,especiallyThe Republic,in which the leaders of his proposedutopiaare

to bephilosopher kings:rulers who understand theForm of the Goodand possess the courage to act

accordingly.Aristotle,in hisMetaphysics,defined wisdom as the understanding of causes, i.e. knowing why things area certain way, which is deeper than merely knowing that things are a certain way.[2]

Wisdom is also important withinChristianity.Jesusemphasized it.[3][4]Paul the Apostle,in hisfirst epistle tothe Corinthians,argued that there is both secular and divine wisdom, urging Christians to pursue the latter. Prudence,

which is intimately related to wisdom, became one of the fourcardinal virtuesofCatholicism.The ChristianphilosopherThomas Aquinasconsidered wisdom to be the "father" (i.e. the cause, measure, and form) of all virtues.

In theInuittradition, developing wisdom was the aim of teaching. An Inuit Elder said that a person became wise whenthey could see what needed to be done and do it successfully without being told what to do.

Nicholas Maxwell,a contemporary philosopher, advocates thatacademiaought to alter its focus from the acquisitionof knowledge to seeking and promoting wisdom, which he defines as the capacity to realize what is of value in life, for

Psychologists have gathered data on commonly held beliefs or folk theories about wisdom.[6]These analyses indicate thatalthough "there is an overlap of the implicit theory of wisdom with intelligence, perceptiveness, spirituality and

shrewdness, it is evident that wisdom is a distinct term and not a composite of other terms."[7]Many, but not all, studies

find that adults' self-ratings of perspective/wisdom do not depend on age.[8][9]This stands in contrast to the popular

notion that wisdom increases with age,[9]supported by a recent study showing that regardless of their education, IQ orgender, older adults possess superior reasoning about societal and interpersonal conflicts.[10]In many cultures the name

for third molars, which are the last teeth to grow, is etymologically linked with wisdom, e.g. as in the English wisdom

tooth.In 2009, a study reviewed which brain processes might be related to wisdom.[11]

Researchers in the field ofpositive psychologyhave defined wisdom as the coordination of "knowledge andexperience" and "its deliberate use to improve well being."[12]With this definition, wisdom can supposedly be measured

using the following criteria.[8]A wise person hasself-knowledge.

A wise person seemssincereand direct with others.Others ask wise people for advice.

A wise person's actions are consistent with his/her ethical beliefs.

Measurement instruments that use these criteria have acceptable to goodinternal consistencyand lowtest-

retestreliability(rin the range of 0.35 to 0.67).[8]Religious perspectives

In theChristianBibleandJewishscripture, wisdom is represented by the sense of justice of the lawful and wisekingSolomon,who asks God for wisdom in2 Chronicles1. Much of theBook of Proverbs,a book of wise sayings,

is attributed to Solomon. In Proverbs 1:7 and 9:10, thefear of the Lordis called the beginning or foundation of wisdomwhile Proverbs 8:13 declares "To fear the Lord is to hate evil". In Proverbs 1:20, there is also reference to wisdom

personified in female form, "Wisdom calls aloud in the street, she raises her voice in the public squares." Continuing in

Proverbs 8:22-31, this personified wisdom is described as being present with God before creation began and even taking

part in creation itself, delighting especially in human beings.It has been posited that an ancient belief existed among the Jews andSamaritansthat both the wisest and most aged

among them would growcaprinehorns, which were knowneuphemisticallyas "rays of light" ( ), hence the

following ancient Hebrewdictums:[13]From Wisdom's ("Power" or "an animal horn") Authority is born.

His Wisdom shone (qaran) unto them like ("power" or "an animal horn") (qeren) of light - (perhaps a more poetic

translation would be 'his wisdom shone like a powerful beam of light').

However this is most likely a mistranslation of the Hebrew 'Keren' which means 'pride/defiance' (Psalm 75:5) in the

emotive context but 'animal horn' in the vulgate.[14]Possibly one of the most famous results of this error wasMichelangelo's addition of horns to his statue of Moses.

In a general sense the Hebrew for "horn" can be taken to represent the emotive and political concept of power.

The word wisdom is mentioned 222 times in theOld TestamentandNew Testamentof theBible. Both the books

ofProverbsandPsalmsurge readers to obtain and to increase in wisdom. Here are some of the things that the Bible saysthat wisdom is responsible for:Building and establishing a house (Proverbs 24:3-4). Preserving life (Proverbs 3:21-23). Safety and a clear path (Proverbs

3:21-23). Better to own than gold or silver (Proverbs 16:16). Giver of patience and glory (Proverbs 19:11).

Furthermore, there is an oppositional element in Christian thought betweensecularwisdom and Godly wisdom.Theapostle Paulstates that worldly wisdom thinks the claims ofChristto be foolishness. However, to those who are

Qur'an

InIslam,Wisdom is deemed as one of the greatest gifts humankind can enjoy. TheQ'uranstates : " He gives wisdom towhom He wills, and whoever has been given wisdom has certainly been given much good. And none will remember except

those of understanding." [2:269]*

There are a number of verses where the Q'uran specifically talks about the nature of wisdom. In Surah 22 Al- ajj (ThePilgrimage) it is said, "Do they not travel through the land, so that their hearts (and minds) may thus learn wisdom and their

ears may thus learn to hear? Truly it is not their eyes that are blind, but their hearts which are in their breasts" (verse 46). In

another Surah Al-'An`m (The Cattle) it's said, "Say: "Come, I will rehearse what Allah (God) hath (really) prohibited youfrom": Join not anything as equal with Him; be good to your parents; kill not your children on a plea of want; We

provide sustenance for you and for them; come not nigh to shameful deeds, whether open or secret; take not life, whichAllah hath made sacred, except by way of justice and law: thus doth He command you, that ye may learn wisdom" (verse151)

Eastern religions and philosophy

According toConfucius,wisdom can be learned by three methods: Reflection (the noblest), imitation (the easiest) andexperience (the bitterest). Wisdom is not told by self but unless asked for by another. This means a wise man never tells his

wisdom unless asked person to person. According to "Doctrine of the Mean," Confucius also said, "Love of learning is akin

to wisdom. To practice with vigor is akin to humanity. To know to be shameful is akin to courage (zhi,ren,yi..three of

Mengzi's sprouts of virtue)." Compare this with the beginning of the Confucian classic "Great Learning" which begins with

"The Way of learning to be great consists in manifesting the clear character, loving the people, and abiding in the highest

good" one can clearly see the correlation with the Roman virtue "prudence," especially if one transliterates clear character

as clear conscience. (Quotes from Chan's Sources of Chinese Philosophy).

Buddhistscriptures teach that a wise person is endowed with good bodily conduct, good verbal conduct, and good mental

conduct.(AN3:2) A wise person does actions that are unpleasant to do but give good results, and doesnt do actions thatare pleasant to do but give bad results (AN 4:115). Wisdom is theantidoteto the self-chosenpoisonofignorance.The

Buddhahas much to say on the subject of wisdom including:He who arbitrates a case by force does not thereby become just (established inDhamma). But the wise man is he who

carefully discriminates between right and wrong.[15]

He who leads others by nonviolence, righteously and equitably, is indeed a guardian of justice, wise and righteous.[16]One is not wise merely because he talks much. But he who is calm, free from hatred and fear, is verily called a wise

man.[17]

By quietude alone one does not become asage(muni) if he is foolish and ignorant. But he who, as if holding a pair ofscales, takes the good and shuns the evil, is a wise man; he is indeed a muni by that very reason. He who understands both

good and evil as they really are, is called a true sage.[18]InTaoism,wisdom is construed as adherence to theThree Treasures (Taoism):charity, simplicity, and humility.Knowing others is intelligence;

knowing yourself is true wisdom.

Mastering others is strength;

mastering yourself is true power.

(Tao Te Ching,33, tr. S. Mitchell)Other religions

InMesopotamian religion and mythology,Enki,also known as Ea, was the God of wisdom and intelligence.Wisdom was achieved by restoring balance.

InNorse mythology,the godOdinis especially known for his wisdom, often acquired through various hardships and

ordeals involving pain and self-sacrifice. In one instance he plucked out an eye and offered it to Mmir,guardian of thewell of knowledge and wisdom, in return for a drink from the well .[19]In another famous account, Odin hanged himself

for nine nights fromYggdrasil,theWorld Treethat unites all therealms of existence,suffering from hunger and

thirst and finally wounding himself with a spear until he gained the knowledge ofrunesfor use in casting

powerfulmagic.[20]He was also able to acquire themead of poetryfrom thegiants,a drink of which could grant thepower of a scholar orpoet,for the benefit ofgodsand mortals alike.[19]Sapience

faculty which is a component ofintelligenceor alternatively may be considered an additional faculty, apart from

intelligence, with its own properties.Robert Sternberg[21]has segregated the capacity for judgment from the generalqualifiers for intelligence, which is closer to cognizant aptitude than to wisdom. Displaying sound judgment in a complex,

dynamic environment is a hallmark of wisdom.

Infantasy fictionandscience fiction,sapience describes anessentialhuman property that bestows "personhood"onto a non-human. It indicates that acomputer,alien,mythical creatureor other object will be treated as a completely

human character, with similar rights, capabilities and desires as any other human character. The words "sentience", "self-awareness"and "consciousness"are used in similar ways in science fiction.

The word sapience is derived from theLatinword sapientia, meaning wisdom.[22]Related to this word is theLatinverbsapere, which means "to taste, to be wise, to know"; the present participle of sapere forms part ofHomosapiens,theLatin binomialnomenclature created byCarolus Linnaeusto describe thehumanspecies.Linnaeushad originally given humans the species name of diurnus, meaning man of the day. But he later decided that the dominating

feature of humans was wisdom, hence application of the name sapiens. His chosen biological name was intended to

emphasize man's uniqueness and separation from the rest of the animal kingdom.

[edit]Name

The "oldmysterians"were not a discrete intellectual movement, but rather thinkers throughout history who have put

forward a position that some aspects of consciousness may not be knowable or discoverable. They includeGottfried

Leibniz,Samuel Johnson,andThomas Huxley.Huxley wrote, "How it is that anything so remarkable as a state ofconsciousness comes about as a result of irritating nervous tissue, is just as unaccountable as the appearance of theDjinn,when Aladdin rubbed his lamp." [6, p. 229, quote]

Owen Flanagannoted in his 1991 book Science of the Mind that some modern thinkers have suggested thatconsciousness may never be completely explained. Flanagan called them "the new mysterians" after the rock group

Question Mark and the Mysterians.[1]The term "New Mysterianism" has been extended by some writers toencompass the wider philosophical position that humans do not have the intellectual ability to solve many hard problems,

not just the problem of consciousness, at a scientific level. This position is also known asanti-constructive naturalism.

[edit]Philosophy

Main article:cognitive closureNew Mysterianism is often characterized [by whom?]as a presupposition that some problems cannot be solved. Critics

[who?]of this view argue that it is fallacious to assume that a problem cannot be solved just because we have not solved ityet. On the other hand, New Mysterians would say that it is just as absurd to assume that every problem can be solved.Crucially, New Mysterians would argue that they did not start with any supposition as to the solvability of the question, and

instead reached their conclusion through logical reasoning. Their argument goes as follows:

Subjective experiencesby their very nature cannot be shared or compared. Therefore it is impossible to know whatsubjective experiences a system (other than ourselves) is having. This will always be the case, no matter what clever

scientific tests we invent. Therefore, there are some questions about consciousness that will never be answered.
