Dr Science says to never stare at the sun.
Perhaps Dr Religion as well.
Seems the masses have gone blind staring into darkness.
I experimented staring at the sun as a kid..
out of curiosity. Lately I've been doing it again out of curiosity lol. I seem to benefit and see better than ever.
Anyone else experimented with this?
This is contrary to conventional wisdom. How long a period of time do you stare at the sun?
That's a great story.. thank you for sharing it.
KInda unrelated, but reminds me of a Sufi tale.
Here is a famous Mulla Nasurdin story;
A man is walking home late one night when he sees an anxious Mulla Nasrudin down on all fours, crawling on his hands and knees on the road, searching frantically under a streetlight for something on the ground.
“Mulla, what have you lost?” the passer-by asks.
"I am searching for my key,” Nasrudin says worriedly.
“I’ll help you look,” the man says and joins Mulla Nasrudin in the search. Soon both men are down on their knees under the streetlight, looking for the lost key. After some time, the man asks Nasrudin, “Tell me Mulla, do you remember where exactly did you drop the key?”
Nasrudin waves his arm back toward the darkness and says, “Over there, in my house. I lost the key inside my house…” Shocked and exasperated, the passer-by jumps up and shouts at Mulla Nasrudin, “Then why are you searching for the key out here in thestreet?”
“Because there is more light here than inside my house,” Mulla Nasrudin answers non-chalantly.
