TENIHC (ICB) Right.

I DON'T KNOW WHY THEY THINK THEY OWN

Take into account that I have protruding ears, which may have influenced their opinions.
Also, I don't tend to talk much, and who can I blame anyway if I'm not a gifted student...

Yes!

THE THREE PERSONALITIES OF GINSENG

Cunningham's Encyclopedia of Magical Herbs says that it's good for love and making wishes.

But, in my limited experience with the herb (and I think I'm sensitive), I feel that it makes me feel possessed, and then grants me considerable intelligence gradually. In my view, this is only the second of three personalities of Ginseng.

The first is intelligent lovers, who mistake it for love, but are really boosting their obsession with their own intelligence.

The third personality is less intellgent people who think it connotes wisdom, plain and simple. But this just means they think it means other people's intelligence.

So, riddle solved! Ginseng just means possession in exchange for long-term intelligence. If you're wishing for intelligence, then it could mean wishing, too! And if you're wishing for intelligent love, then it could also help there, unless you don't want to feel possessed!

So, riddle solved! No further look for information about Ginseng. It is likely to deceive you.

And, if you want a cheap immortality remedy, look no further than Turmeric ('yellow root'), rather than Ginseng.

I've attracted a quasi-follower, good news I think!

From a comment on my blog:

I couldn't sleep. I wrote something about circles. This quote of yours drove me to write somehow...I think...but I could be wrong...I am tired. Take a look if you want.

I responded to his circle idea at his blog, where I said:

There is one way where you might be wrong, in that there is no definite relation between the person and the circle. I think the human may be more specific than the circle, and in that way you may be right. The question I think is really 'how to find relevance for the circle?' And I think in this respect it is useless to commit to specific traditions, and more appropriate to find a personal meaning for the circle. Otherwise the result is a trope. 


On the other hand, if what you are looking for is a rational system, then the circle may or may not be rationalized, and rationalizations can be interpreted as literal or else formally irrational. And the result is to accept or reject the meaning of the circle.

In my own sense of significance, I often return to the idea of the 'sublime' to explain the meaning of symbols. To some extent, what something means is its aesthetic role in the environment. If the symbol is not a sensory experience in some way, then we must define what it means for ourselves. The symbol will not always choose its meaning for us...

---Nathan Coppedge

At the same time 'follower' may be the wrong word to use, since his writing style is in some ways more compelling than my own...
