What is the balance between transcendent and immanent dimensions?
Well.... Immanent is where a spiritual belief is on earth or within earth. Transcendant is where spiritual belief is out of this world. For example: the balance of Christianity would be God is in heaven and is transcendant but he created the all things on earth so he shows immanence through nature. Hope this help all those seniors doing religious studies xxx
How do you max your magicka in oblivion?
you use transcendant sigil stones to give each of your 9 pieces of clothing +50 magicka and max out INT. you can also use a glitch to copy the necromancers amulet and use that to get +130 instead of the 50 for an amulet. to get the necromancers amulet, you must either never finish the magesguild quest or, after you give up the amulet to traven, finish the magesguild quests within 3 days (before the dungeon the amulet was in resets) and ressurect that lady with the staff of worms and kill her again. the seccond one isn't that hard, i did it first try
What did Derrida mean when he stated that there is nothing outside of the text?
In order to understand what Derrida means when he speaks of "text", one first has to clarify the way we use "signs" in language (a good example of a sign is a word) in order to communicate. Derrida stresses the paradox in every sign - if you are using the sign to represent something, the sign is obviously not the thing that you are trying to represent, rather something you use in order to defer that thing at the same time as representing it. In addition, Derrida adopts the idea the sign derives its meaning mainly from the difference between itself and other signs (in what is called a structure - this is where we get the term "structuralism"), and not from something that is inherent to it. According to Derrida, we tend to abuse writing, when we see it as a way of representing speech, because as a representor of speech, writing is also inferior to it. The notion that speech is superior to writing, stems from what Derrida calls "logocentrism", i.e. the idea that we are always looking to uncover some kind of transcendant truth, the epitamy of all language. In that kind of system speech really would be superior because it is based on proximity - it is closer to the mind and the self. But if we get rid of the centrality of that "logos", then writing becomes no less important than speach, and even more so, because the lack of a transcendant aspect to reality leaves us with only negative meanings. Anything and everything that we take into account, see, experience or do, is interpreted by us in relation to everything else, and it is all writing, because the meaning of everything we take into account stems only from its not being something else - "THERE IS NOTHING OUTSIDE OF THE TEXT"
If Bruce Lee were alive today would he be better than the top MMA fighters?
Bruce Lee dedicated every waking moment to perfecting his art, his craft, and his mind, body, and soul. He was world-renowned for his fighting ability at a time when Martial Arts weren't even that popular. Interviews with ex-world champions (Chuck Norris, to name one) are instrumental in pointing out that Bruce Lee was leagues above everybody else. If Bruce Lee were alive and young today, he would, without a doubt, be considered the best pound-for-pound fighter that had ever lived. He wouldn't be the Michael Jordan of MMA...he would be something else entirely different, something even more transcendant and dominating, and solidify his name as legend all over again.

Can dress shoes converted to golf shoes?
Well, it depends on what you're using them for. If you are trying to express an opinion you have about golfing attire (or something more transcendant)--it can be an abstracted artistic expression of functional art. If you are interested in it, you can look into the Dada Movement (1916-1921)--whose anti-war feeling brought on anti-art approaches by creating things that do not necessarily function as they appear. Sometimes people would create costumes, or design things--and incorporate them into "performance art" pieces, in which they would act something out or do something to get their point across to the viewer. So it is totally do-able! It's all a matter of thinking like an artist!!:)
How can Islamic philosophy contribute to the development of man?
islamic philosophy has many insights for developing of human.according to this kind of philosophy,human as a being has many dimension like spirit and body.nearly according to the all schools of islamic philosophy,the spirit of human or soul or pesuche has many important role in this way.the spirit has different vertical levels in such a way that every level is like a premise for other level.human lies first in the level of matterial reason.in this level human and the spirit of human has many facultis which are potential.human developed through acquiring knowledge or Ilm to level of actual reason which are actualized.when human being had many knowleges then if these acquired knowledes had been fixed consequently human being reached to the level of fixed reson or Aql e Bel Malakeh.the final level and most exalted of them is acquiring reson in the sense that whenever the spirit of the humn beings will,then he can acquire every things from exalted reason or active reason.the most important point in the view of the islamic philosophy is that the motion of human never can be descendant but forever is transcendant.
Why do buddhists believe that following the eightfold path leads to a life?
You have to reach the highest level , nirvana (nibbana), to end suffering and the cycle of reincarnation. And Buddhists believe that if you practice the Eightfold Path, your craving will decrease and therefore your sufferings will end. The Buddha taught that the only final way to end suffering is to practice the Eightfold Path to its completion.A full analysis of the Eightfold Path would be quite complex and could take volumes.But briefly:Right Understanding is the compass. It shows the disciple that craving is the cause of suffering and that eliminating craving is the way to the end of suffering.Right intention is the intent to walk the path. Without the intent, one would not walk the path.Right speech helps make one's interactions more harmonious, which by itself helps reduce suffering.Right action directly reduces the suffering of others and oneself.Right Livelihood keeps one from causing suffering to others (and oneself) through one's livelihood.Right Effort prevents laziness, which would cause one to fall into bad habits which would cause suffering down the road.Right Mindfulness helps prevent one from causing suffering in subtle ways.And finally, Right Concentration helps lead one beyond the ordinary, worldly mind into transcendant states. Since all worldly things are temporary, attachment to them inevitably leads to suffering.
