New Web Site Soon!
We are re-organizing our web site. No one here likes change, we would just continue with the old-fashioned software that we used years ago. We wrap our packages in materials that they used decades ago: brown paper and adhesive tape. Of course we have a computer generated label, which is high-tech, so we are not resistant to change.
But we want to put our book list, which we update on a monthly basis on its own page. So everything will change, since we have to use a formatted template for the layout. And we might have to revamp the blog too. We will keep you posted.
As the ancient teachers said in the primordial legends of the lands that we now call China: "The only constant is change". Or in words often attributed to Heraclitus, the Greek philosopher from Asia Minor said in parallel: Τα Πάντα ῥεῖ (ta panta rhei).
Hopefully your browser supports the Greek character set, otherwise we have transliterated the quote into the more modern "Roman" style characters: ta panta rhei, which is translated into English as "everything flows". It is part of a larger instruction of wise thought which indicates that one never steps into the same stream twice, that the waters of change constantly replenish and modify our environment. And who is to say that at a molecular level that the universe keeps moving and manifesting, renewing itself from instant to instant as the electrons and nuclei vibrate and shift?
That was how Einstein came to his theory of explaining the phenomena of Brownian motion, supposedly, according to legend staring at his coffee and cream in a Viennese cafe as the hot coffee slowly moved the clouds of cream around in his cup. The cream did not remain still, it swirled around the cup, bumped around on a molecular level by the random motion of the molecules. His elegant insight into an everyday event and interpreting something people had stared at for centuries and providing a context with an explanation was his brilliance.
So we do not actively resist change, but we don't necessarily embrace new-fangled technology or ideas without thorough examination. Of course that has its drawbacks, we should have brought some domain names when they became available, but we have an online business that sells both ancient and modern tomes, so please feel free to browse the links to the right and help us flourish. We sell books on multiple websites, including our own, My-Lynx Associates.
