Sir Isaac Newton's birthday eh?
Such hidden depths about him that I didn't know about! A father of the basis for modern unified sound and colour healing techniques. (I suspect the Greeks, Romans, Egyptians and others before may have done similar things, haven't read up on it yet though).
Did you know that, according to Wiki, he decided to separate the rainbow into seven colours because there were seven notes in the musical scale, seven days in the week, etc? And he actually assigned a note of the Dorian scale to each colour! This is what many modern sound healers do with the Ionian/Major scale! (Although I myself prefer to be more flexible in my approach).
He was a holistic thinker, as was Einstein. This, of course, was not taught in school. More and more, I find that the great masters and mistresses who made great scientific discoveries or inventions, created new paradigms and methods of classification etc., may not have achieved these discoveries and inventions through science alone! Neither purely through maths! They didn't use a purely logical approach - the intuition, inspiration and creativity were important to them!
My feeling is that the greatest thinkers of our time, the ones that truly change history, are the ones who think broadly. Are multi-disciplinary. Are not afraid to think outside of the box. Are not afraid of change! Are holistic and balanced.. On all levels.
I really aspire to be like them. I feel so similar to Einstein. For ages I have felt, I don't have the intellectual and computational capacity to be as good as he. And maybe that's true. But maybe I could also develop my intuition and positive thinking, and that would stimulate my intellect, my ability in science and maths... I used to love physics and quadratic equations but chose creative and linguistic subjects at A Level, choosing to use my maths and science skills in Computing..Maybe there's still time. I do like quantum physics.
