Induction

The term agnostic was fittingly coined by the 19th-century British scientist Thomas H. Huxley, who believed that only material phenomena were objects of exact knowledge. He made up the word from the prefix a-, meaning “without, not,” as in amoral, and the noun Gnostic. Gnostic is related to the Greek word gn?, “knowledge,” which was used by early Christian writers to mean “higher, esoteric knowledge of spiritual things”; hence, Gnostic referred to those with such knowledge. In coining the term agnostic, Huxley was considering as “Gnostics” a group of his fellow intellectuals—“ists,” as he called them— who had eagerly embraced various doctrines or theories that explained the world to their satisfaction. Because he was a “man without a rag of a label to cover himself with,” Huxley coined the term agnostic for himself, its first published use being in 1870.

Sign of 31/3/2012

Verse:
〖诗曰〗八门分八位,九星布九方;青赤黄白黑,五色卷锦装。交锋对垒,两两相当。
Explanation:
〖签释〗奇门遁甲是一个复杂的占测门类,原理较难掌握。在它的排局中,有九宫,六仪,三奇,以及八门,九星信神分。这首签诗表示了它所揭示的信息,是由奇门遁甲的测算方法来提供的。八门在奇门活盘上的中盘上按顺时针方向旋转,是这样排列的:休,生伤,杜景,死,惊,开。而布于九方的九星则分别为:蓬,任,冲辅,英,芮,柱,心禽。而九星分赋以各种不同的色彩为:白黑,碧,绿,黄,白赤,白紫。八门中以五行推占事物,这里所说的交锋以垒,两两相当,便是结论:内外均有坑坎缺陷,三奇入墓为暗昧无光彩之物,美而变丑,其中火炼之物得而复失。如占婚姻,相克相冲,婚难成,成了也难以美满。不论凰求凤,还是凤求凰,皆为相克,不吉。它占部,如人口走失,失盗,疾病,讼事均为凶,愁眉不展,抑郁难伸之格局。
〖卦语〗珠玉走盘中,田园定阜丰;休言谋示遂,此去便亨通。
〖释义〗珠玉与肋,皆团圆之珍物,圆满而吉祥的征兆。预测田园土产必定丰足。阜,富足的意思。不要说目的不能达到,这回去了,一定能取得圆满成功。 西冯方向,京都大邑,形胜之地,高亢之所,可望成就。 秋,九,十月之交,戌亥年月日时,正是成功最佳时刻。 饮食禁忌:荔枝,桂园(龙眼)等圆型果品,诸物之首,海鲜及肝,胆腰等下水。 西北成名有望,大权可揽,宜入京师。 吉祥色彩:大红,玄青色。 若论婚姻,可成,大吉。
