Wax paper and the squirrel.

Please ignore the English and stay focused on the content. 

Our ability to think has been, is and will be there for ever or until as an individual we die. Regardless of the awareness of mortality, our choices are tainted and influenced by the emotions and the politics of strong sense of belonging. Which makes me think that we are not even close to reaching our potential. If the ability to think is an evolutionary process then the thought process should be as well, so should be the emotional awareness. Since there is a chance of being incorrect, our actions should never be under the influences of the passionate emotions but that has been and is the reality of the humanity. When you are emotionally charged the consequences take the back seat, and we become very dangerous, a knowledgeable and angered creature armed with the guns and nuclear bombs can do the real harm.

We as a humanity are going through a process of growth, for instance, we have to pass wax paper barrier. As a boy I use to go to listen to sermon by the Molaana Ajmal one of the Muslim preacher in Pakistan. One day he said and I” Quote” If I give you a paper and ask you to put your finger through but don’t rip the paper, how are you going to do it? If you force your way through, you will rip the paper and can’t see the real knowledge of the other side. We have to use a pin to make small holes to start the process, which needs patience and persistence. “End Quote”.

Just like the process of learning in the school in grades or building muscles, you just can’t learn instantly or can’t build muscles, lifting heavier than you are ready for. If we keep poking little holes, or digging gradually we are following the path to learn and know more about ourselves and our potential. We are at the level, that we now know that there is a process and it needs a constant struggle and drive to learn and adopt to a higher level of evolution. We may have made enough holes so we can peek through a finger sized hole but still we can’t see the whole picture, so we have a lot of assumptions. In order to know everything we need to be on the other side in person. Unfortunately none of us can tell what is on the other side unless we are dead and when we are dead the communication seizes for the ordinary folks like you and me. Now how can we learn about the other side, without the assumptions while we are alive, the only way is, to pursue it with the patience of generations. If you are too liberal you are eager to rip the paper, or if you are too conservative you may stop the process of digging, because of the fear of entering and invading the God’s territories, and stay put, which I believe, is exactly against God’s will, why? just look at our make up, every single cell of us suggests to pursuit our potential, that is why regardless of the conservative efforts we are constantly evolving, everything in the human body whether its physical, emotional, mental, psychological or spiritual gets better and evolves according to the demands and every thing shrivels and dies by disuse and  stalling. BUT 

If you push too fast you  potentially rip the paper and don’t get to understand any thing other than your ego, and by not pursuing and accepting the status quo is an extreme as well. For evolving human being, either extreme is wrong, so we need constant digging and drive to dig, but with patient to grow and reach out for our potential. God is proud of his creation but only if we reach to our full potential, and it is our responsibility to pursue our potential, so we can reach to the level what God had meant for us.

The most confusing aspect of all religions is that how and why an entity with the potential to evolve, should be staying in the boundaries? If you look at the rules of any religion you will know what I am talking about. Personally I believe all the religious boundaries are either to control the population politically or there is a wisdom to slow us down so we can evolve safely without ripping the wax paper. Either way we are evolving and political religious people don’t like it, because they are losing their control. If you are the follower of the text but don’t really believe in it, you may even create more boundaries for your self, because of your insecure nature. A religious living is and should be living with a spiritual belief system which should logically remove the fear and insecurities, but if you look deeply instead of believing in God people become so controlling that they cross the spiritual boundaries to commit spiritual crimes against the innocent individuals in the name of God.

God’s wisdom is amazing, just look at yourself and your free will closely, we have the opposing senses like sense of belonging and sense of freedom yet with the free will, so the duty ends up on the shoulders of an individual. Free will and the curiosity in the DNA; we are bound to break the boundaries, so the knowledge is contributed by both sides. Followers preach the following the status quo, and the curious rule breakers, break the boundaries to dig in deeper for more knowledge, it’s ironic that both are contributing in there ways they know. One to slow  down the other, just to create the sacred rhythm, so we don’t rip the wax paper.  Who is following God’s will? It is the question since the dawn of the civilization and the cause of our wars and extreme prejudice. Can one really be breaking the boundaries created by God? I would whole heartedly say no, because the will of God for the human being is to evolve. There is not a bird which can fly into the space yet regardless of the wings human being is there just because we broke the orders of religions, notice, I said orders of the religions not God, it is because I believe our religions have been tainted with the politics of control which benefits the belonging groups. 

We will know more not by digging the bones of our ancestors, past history or assuming about the future and fighting over the life after death.  If we do a little poking to figure out, it is coming everyday and its all in the present. What is on the other side? What is human’s potential? Where did we come from? What we really are? Where does God exist? How does God’s work gets done? Where do we stand? Where are we going? Why don’t we know everything? And the biggest question is why do we claim that we know every thing there is to know?

By looking in our history we always have been claiming that we know everything, yet we have been proven wrong over and over to learn more and evolve . Understanding the evolutionary process will  eventually bring all the answer to every question, but you have to dig and pursue the potential, so we can use more of our abilities, what God had installed in us, it is not that we are learning new things everyday, it that we are keep scratching the surface of our brain to dig in for more because we came with that potential.

The real wisdom is not only in the Holy Scriptures, it is coming from all directions just like the rivers pour into the oceans as common sense knowledge, and it is contributed by everyday individuals.” For instance I was watching a movie about Buddha in one seen, Buddha was meditating on the river bank, for days, he had not eaten or had water, a row boat was going by with two people, one was rowing and other was playing a string instrument. The music player stops the music and says to the rower, “you know if you tighten it too much, it will snap on you, and if you don’t tighten it, it would not play the music”. Buddha heard that and stopped his meditation to eat. He learnt something wise from an ordinary individual. That means Buddha took the knowledge from a music player, whether that knowledge was sent from the higher power or the musician is another story, but regardless music player was the messenger. Buddha put that balance into his practice and preached the balance from then on. We all have the ability to think and contribute the common sense knowledge, in everyday life whether he/she is poet, scientist, medical researcher or belong to another kind of educational line the purpose is the same and that is to help the humanity.

All creatures follow certain order of nature; they come in life, eat, sleep, reproduce and die. It has been going on for very long time long before human being became aware of the spirituality; I don’t look into the time for the answers, like when did we become aware, or who started the awareness? Because it is meaningless to me, what I really want to know is why? this why has answers from all kind of people from religious to scientific back ground but, definitely with assumptions, and assumptions are assumptions, we just can’t claim with our presently limited yet evolving knowledge that we know everything there is to know. We have been killing each other over, our assumptions and we keep doing that, and for how long will we do that? I would assume, until the human individual evolves to be a CEO, whom can say no to the politics of sense of belonging to the belonging group or until we all learn to belong to the humanity as a whole. Until we over come our prejudice and learn that every human being is a cell of God and God lives through the living human beings.

It’s mind boggling to me that we are keep advancing technologically, yet we can’t seem to figure it out that how can we put humanity over the group politics. If you look back from a family pack to community, city, province, nation, race and religion, the process of growth is there but it is still tainted with the competition and cut throat group politics. If we take humanity at the level of our technology, we will grow and raise our ability to see and achieve the understanding of the knowledge to help the humanity where God actually exists, thus growing to that level, one not only start to respect him/herself is part of God but respect others as part of God as well. The vary cause of prejudice can be eradicated inside of the one individual at a time by helping them believing in equal human rights to help others to get help him/her self spiritually.

A dead squirrel on the road is a common sight, if you look for the hole it lived in, most probably you will find saved up nuts, useless for the saver, but can be a treasure for the founder, the other hungry squirrel, and that is, if that hole is found.

We humans are supposed to be better than that, but our mortality makes us look at life, just like a squirrel. Our world is running on the promotions of business related and fear based security. Even the belief systems are tainted, if you want a spot in the heaven, you have to give money to the church and mosque. Security and control is such a big business that the individual would be looked down and made feel stupid, if one does not follow the mass, so we are preached to live like  squirrels, instead of the birds. Birds come to north in the summer with no nest, nobody waiting for them, they  just have faith that there will be food. Everyday they go find food, make nests, reproduce, and migrate back in the winter. Total faith, exactly the opposite to the squirrel yet both are extreme. Human being is above and beyond the level of these creatures because we know that we are mortal yet still we live in fear like a squirrel.

I know that I am an idealist and it is just a thought, if you take all the resources from the immobile securities, you can create a business large enough that the profit alone can feed millions of hungry people, and reduce the human sufferings, have a poverty tax or there should be groups of people who can afford to put money together in an organized way that they don’t lose their investments but the profits can go towards the better humanity, Taxes have taken a bad rap because they way they have been enforced, our education system should start to teach us from the early age that giving is reciprocating. Everyone of us is alive not because of our efforts, being alive is a miracle just look above, the sky is not falling, look inside and see the things working in harmony regardless of trillions of self cells and ten time more bacteria. If you think that you can will it, just look around and see the people trying to survive a disease. If you are kept alive you should be appreciative for the free oxygen you breath for free to function, we all should learn to reciprocate. Helping humanity is helping God because God’s actions are done through the living human being. 

I don’t promote communism like thinking, because it’s the other extreme. Balance is crucial to the individual and the society simultaneously.  If you pick the extreme capitalism, its tainted with the human insecurities and greed so it would breed the one percent and ninety-nine percent and on the other side, the communism is against the human’s free nature. Either way we can’t depend on just the human courtesy or the extreme rules. The charities dry with the individual insecurities yet the need of humanity does not stop.

Our mortality should actually make us humble and generous, but we are far from it. Let’s look at it this way; we wear expensive jewelry, name brand cloths, drive nice expensive cars, and what is the driving force behind it? For sure it’s not the mortality. It is all that powerful sense of belonging, what makes us suffer in private life with anorexia or bulimia even we are aware of our mortality, what compels us  to live in self created extremes. Why do the individual has the need to impress others, fit in or have strong desire to be admired? It is that almighty and out of control sense of belonging.

God has equally blessed us all with the free will, it’s what we do with it is different. You can use free will to follow the trends and reduce yourself to a squirrel or go to the other extreme and become a reckless spender, or make sense out of it all. Use it to live like a mortal, if you can’t take along use it for self and remember the real human happiness is not only in being selfish, if you can end someone’s suffering you value your self and become aware of deep and meaningful happiness. This knowledge has been around since the dawn of civilization, but we always had sufferings to deal with. Each and everyone of us has to do some soul searching. Do we have to live under the powerful sense of belonging or to go to other extreme and become totally selfish? Or become a CEO with the personal justice, ethics and morals.

It’s ironic that we use strong sense of belonging to become selfish, and strong sense of freedom to become unselfish. For instance with strong sense of belonging, you want to be admired looked at and be impressive, so you do the things to get everything what others want. You strive to get gold, diamonds etc. etc. If you don’t give out you hoard and then it’s time to go, so you leave it for your family, and that is, if you have any, otherwise it goes to the government, that means you have lived selfishly but at sub standard life. If you have strong sense of freedom, you don’t really care if you wore name brand cloths or not, you have nice car or not, you just live free of hoarding. If you have it you use it to live larger, what makes one selfish? Is the ignorance of the knowledge of mortality regardless of its reality. 

In the core of human  being there is humanity, but the insecurities we are wrapped up with, whether they are installed by the parents or the society, is not the question, it is the question of mortal living. Then there are social trends and personal responsibilities with loud inner voices, we become so occupied that we can’t here anything else other than personal needs, some time to the point that we don’t care about the inner voices of humanity.

If you don’t see or value your own self, think and feel inadequate, you will let others, to put their colors or values in you, which makes you lose your identity. You will become a sheep who needs some outer force like the people of your belonging group to move you. God is not going to be out there for you, even if your belonging group believes in God, if you can’t find God inside you, you would be lost, as an individual.

Since you are directly connected to the source meaning God you can’t be looking for God, just find your personal color and identity you will become spiritually aware, thus know God. Reciprocate during your living years instead of trying to secure a spot in the heaven which is after death and logically, you are really useful to God while you are alive, because even God needs to act physically through you to fulfill someone’s prayers.

Life is not just functioning of the organism, it’s the purpose of it, and you can choose to live a purpose driven life.

Function of the human is to survive, feed the body and start to look for the purpose. Sex to reproduce, self sacrifice to raise the off springs so the constant and continuum of humanity and God is stable, after that start to seek knowledge to better the humanity. Help the man kind and beyond.

What is that and where is that coming from? The reality is that it’s not what you see in space that matters, it’s your ability to see. If you seek God don’t dig out side it’s the inside knowledge you need more. It is not out side knowledge it’s the ability of your brain to understand. How and what is only solved by the curiosity and where does the curiosity come from. It is ingrained in you; you don’t just go to school to become curious. Major problems solvers did not learn from schools they explored by going inside and dig into the brain to put thing together.  

Balance of the core.

Please ignore the English and stay focus on the content.

A while back I wrote a Blog titled, the love triangle, you may read it before this one so you can connect the content. In that I discussed three corners of the love.

Passionate Love, Instinctive Love and Universal Love.

Love encases us from all outside problems or assaults to influence our reactions, these may relate with the hormones or circumstances. These different kind of love helps to form an individual identity. Our education systems have been flawed throughout the history and even now in the present.

When divided equally the core triangle emerges which can be divided into two sections. These two sides of the human individual are the personal core. Where the good side which I relate to the spirit, and the other equally important side which I relate with the animal side. You can say God or the Devil inside.

Interestingly similar to my discussion, today Oct 9th 2016 in the morning news Dr. Lin who is a medical contributor to the CBC was talking about the thanks giving, he said that there is a part of human brain which he called as an animal brain. He said that this part of the brain gets stressed and makes the body to release stress hormones and they can cause hypertension, then he connected the gratitude and appreciation to lower blood pressure. He said that people whom can go inside and tell their animal brain that things are okay so relax, they have better health. He mention some studies but I did not get the whole discussion. 

To make my case I have to  go back and explain the importance of love first, with its triangle, Passionate Love is where you love your partner and make family. This passionate love gives birth to the instinctive love, but it is not just limited to your children, it carries on and make you love your siblings, father, mother, other family members or even friends and neighbors  individually, whom have special connection with you individually. When you start to understand love sharing with other siblings other family members or friends, you start to connect with others around and give birth to Universal the Love, where you become aware of your belonging groups like race, gender, community, nation and religion.

I will discuss strong sense of belonging to your belonging groups in a little while but I need to explain this core first.

These equally but opposing sides of the individual make us all human beings and they both are equally legitimate and important for the individual to live a mortal life and still be happy.  If you are picking one over the other you are under the influences of a flawed education because you are trying to change your identity. Always remember you are genetically and spiritually a human being, part animal part spirit not one or the other. You experience spirituality only when you are physically alive. All the spiritual work of God takes a physical form by the human individual making choices in the core. The prayers of someone come to life with other human individual’s interventions thus God is living through or having a physical experience as well through the living humanity.

For personally having a successful mortal life, the individual has to have peace in the core, and it is crucial if you center yourself and accept and assume your identity as a human being. You will find peace and contentment in a mortal life otherwise the knowledge of mortality and fear of death can eat you alive from the inside out. You can follow the stories of the religions and be nice to the others, its spiritual thus I have no dispute with it, but when you follow the orders and commit spiritual crime I will have to question your core balance and responsibility of being a CEO of your life, from the decisions you make to the whether you know your identity.

If you are told you are just a spirit thus you should kill the inner animal like Christianity expects from the priests, you may end up living this life in turmoil in the name of God, I would absolutely dispute that. As I said even God is having a physical experience through you, so you are the big kahuna, a CEO, who is given a choice to decide before actions. You carry the opposing forces inside and they both belong to you, your decisions can have the harmful or rewarding effects on your life. Especially when it come to mortality you even become more important to yourself.

The name of my Blog is that who flipped my triangle , just think how your sides can dictate who you are, but not with the politics of your belonging groups. The spirit and the animal both function with, you being alive, if you are not there your good and bad side disappear with you. As I said before that if you kill all the human individuals would God or the Devil matter. If it would matter to you, remember you would not be there to even understand what is good or bad. For the spirit to effectively and physically function, it would need a functioning body of an animal and you can turn the other way the equation will bring the same results so mathematically it is correct thus it can not be separated. If it happens we seize to exist, what is beyond the existence has never been clearly described other than the religious assumptions like this one. Sure I am assuming because I am not able to use my brain power one hundred percent, so I am not going to say this is it, for the humanity it has never been it, we have been are and will always be constantly evolving so being passionate over the assumptions is simply wrong. Your sense of belonging may say otherwise, but still it is you who has to balance your sense of belonging with the sense of freedom to live a life of a CEO.

Back to the core triangle which has been divided equally, I can assume the good side as Godly and the opposing side as Devilish. Logically the human individual can’t exist with either one of them they both have to be part of this equation of existence. One can’t even understand the value of the good without the presence of the bad or the bad without the presence of the good. That means good and bed can’t exist without each other but the irony is that they both can’t exist without the one who carries them in his/her core and has the power to choose and balance. This is the reason I believe ideally or potentially we are all born as CEOs. When we lose powers of the CEO our triangle gets flipped by some one and we can become harmful to ourselves and to the humanity as well. Balance of the inner core is crucial to the health of the individual, whether its related with spiritual, physical, psychological or emotional health. As Dr. Lin puts it together that, there is a physical reaction to the way we think. 

Back to the sense of belonging, if you assume the responsibilities of a CEO, you should be able to go into the core and balance yourself. Yes it is hard to cross the boundaries of conventional or political knowledge of your sense of belonging, but since you use your free will all the time thus you do have a choice. If you do make the choices or don’t the benefits or the harms are not only for you exclusively, you being balanced can be beneficial to the humanity as well, so as a mortal you are better off to understand your real self. This can liberate you to the point that you start to deal with your all kind of personal problems.

If your education had brain washed you to  the point that you believe,  you are nothing regardless of your fiver ( Read Five bucks) your triangle has been flipped and you have to really understand yourself and your value in the grand scheme of life. Just think you are aware of the space, not because of it exists, it is because of your abilities to envision, see and reach without the wings or oxygen.

As I said before God and the Devil are two sides of you, and it is you who chooses the sides and goes to extreme or create the balance and assumes the responsibilities to be a human being. Whether you are good or bad is not the question, its that you are able to make a choice. Its like you are a brand new computer your belonging group adds data, you are not the data because you came in with all the abilities before the added data thus you are not the data. It is you who runs the computer and the data and that is why you have a name.

If you are under the influences of your ancestral knowledge your triangle need to be right side up and it is only you who has the powers to do it for you. If you have been pulled to believe that you are just a spirit and being animal is bad, picture yourself on the top corner and holding a pendulum when dangling it down straight, it is in the center of the triangle thus divides it perfectly, the more you pull towards one side it will swing with the same force to take you to the other side. Remember the priests sexual behaviors scandals, they have taken the vows to be Godly men. After all the religious education of being good and Godly so they could kill the animal inside, just look around the world and see the pendulum swinging forcefully. The men of God commit the spiritual crimes or Devilish acts in the name of God and their sense of belonging, their personal justice system and ethics have gone with the winds of the prejudice.

If you start to look at the animal side and think about the importance of it, chemicals like hormones start to emerge as one of the most important aspect of human gender. We all are born with the nipples, regardless of gender, yet there is no need of male body having nipples. The reason is that as a fetus we all start as a gender neutral and develop as the hormones show up.

I was watching Discovery Chanel and the program was about the wolves, when the pups were the protective hormones were released, not only in the mom and dad but in the whole pack. I started to connect that with the observation about the hormones fluctuation in the fans during the soccer match. The match was between Franc and Italy they check the level of the testosterone in Italian fans, it went high when their team scored and went down when the Franc’s team scored.

Where I am going with it? I believe sense of belonging is related with our physical part, very important but ultimately it should be under the control of the individual because he/she is born with the responsibilities of a CEO and these days there are innocents lives have been lost in the name of God, just because we have stopped taking the responsibilities as an individual.

Sense of belonging creates suicide bombers and extremism, thus our actions need more education for the individual to know about the effects of our chemicals. Its not that these chemicals are good or bad they are essential in our existence yet we need to evolve to understand our problems related to our hormones or I should say the animal side. Understanding this, would help to deal with the perpetual and out of control thinking related stress and negativity as well and it will help to enjoy a mortal life to the fullest. From physical aging to all related health issues, whether they are physical, emotional, psychological and even eventually spiritual problems, our problems can be related to the hormones suppression or lack of spirituality as well. 

From beer throwing fan to all the way to our wars and related killings without the guilt, our individual behaviors are related to our out of control sense of belonging. Chemical reaction whether its in the wolves, sport fans or in the population’s respect for their armed forces belongs to the sense of belonging. Political bias regardless of right or wrong of the belonging groups, points towards deeply personal imbalance to the point that individual can’t or would not stand up against the wrong doing of belonging group. When an individual is evolved to be a CEO then and only then he/she can see the chemical connection and refrain to react like an animal, so the understanding of the inner balance will help to understand who you really are.

How much say one can have in their living years is related to the core balance, if you feel you are doing everything, you are partially right because you have to put some value on the external and internal insecurities, you just can’t take all the credit, nor you can blame yourself completely about your failures or short comings of your life. Understanding the help you have received as you come to live this life and your abilities to put efforts  to keep yourself in balance is crucial, otherwise you can be destructive and disruptive to your inner balance or should I say peace.

If you are living a mortal life without any kind of faith, you just can’t cross the lines to live this life bravely thus can’t enjoy the benefits of placebo effects. Sure we can’t be totally fatalistic and gamble to put all the eggs in the basket of heaven and hell, but the benefits of faith help us to go through difficult times with hope which reduces anxiety and depression. When the religious people say God is going to help you, its only true when you really believe in God and yourself equally responsible for the changes you make in your living years. The trouble is that we are an entity with educational upbringing so its highly responsible for our well being as an individual.

We really have to seek the inner balance to become a CEO so we can see the causes of the benefits and harms our education. I am going this far to say we need to evolve individually from that animal instinct. There is no doubt in my mind that we are under the influences of our hormones and we act passionately because of that, yet we try to intellectualize and justify it with the politics of our belonging groups. Right and wrong, ethics and morals are taught by our belonging groups but under the rules of their umbrella, so the nationalism and religions dominate our right and wrong yet it should be under the umbrella of the humanity as a whole. That is the reason humanity is having such a hard time in the highest assembly of the nations, Russia  has used veto again regardless of the innocent life loss in Syria . Our sense of belonging is not to the humanity, it is belonging to our political groups thus it is under the influences of the animal side. When we evolve from this internal problem as an individual, we may start to follow the spirituality, until then we are going through the process of evolution thus stay imperfect to the point that we kill and take innocent lives even on the name of God.

Depending on the education we don’t assume our personal duties or responsibilities as a human being whom belongs to the humanity, we belong to a pack of people whom follow the politics of nationalism and religions exclusively thus preach prejudice. It is the individual‘s duty to evolve from the ancestral education and grow to accept the modern day changes of the humanity. It is not a belonging group’s duty to teach politics of the whole humanity because it goes against their existence.

Sure it is strange and it puts you in the position where you will feel insecure and vulnerable but if you become a CEO of your life you can go deep inside of your core or pit and create a balance to fix your outside problems. Fix the and remove the false fears of mortality and live like a mortal. Then and only then you will achieve your personal principles of justice to the point that when your belonging groups want you to commit spiritual crimes, you can stand up and say no to it. Our problems are, that we don’t even know why we don’t care to connect our hormones to our sense of belonging, we as an individual are not taught to know, who we really are and what are our capabilities . It is time to know more about the free will and cutting of the umbilical cord (Read umbilical cord) and the genetics . There are no differences, we have one earth as home for all of us but our ancestral education has taught us to create the political boundaries out of the sense of belonging. 

Things are changing from global warming to internet related cell phones, international banking, free trade, human rights, gay marriage, abortion, assisted suicide  and everything in between. They all are clear directions to belong to humanity. All the groups are like body parts not the body as a whole so as an individual we have to know the differences. If you look at it at a deeper level , spiritually its God and physically its humanity, everything else is political, so should one belong politically or spiritually or balance them both to become a true CEO.

The meaning of the politics is to mask the truth and get what you want, most religions and nations want the control over the individual even if they have to lose the truth of spirituality. If you choose politics it is a choice you make and live with it but when you choose spiritually you achieve inner peace, now if it is valuable to you choose the truth and belong to the humanity because you are genetically born as a human regardless of your color, race or gender.

Your inner balance keeps you from straying to extreme which can cause you to feel either superior or inferior, spiritually it is a flaw not an asset of the human individual. For instance if your animal desires are strong but your sense of belonging compels you to put a lid on it, you will be torn inside  and feel bad about yourself that you can’t meet the standards of the belonging group and continuously living in that state of mind would have a greatly negative impact on your health in your living years. If you choose to have spirit side too strong, and are controlling your desires all the time thus live depravations, you start to look down on the others, whom can’t control themselves and act like an animals. This looking down on the others and feeling superior is a spiritual flaw not an asset because you may be proven as a prejudice, and a spiritually aware individual can’t be prejudice period.
