Prologue: World of Cultivators
Every mortal dream to be a cultivator, every cultivator dream to be an immortal. Immortals never spend time dreaming, they only desire for more. Immortals can decide the fate of a nation and millions of lives with a flick of their finger. That is why they are worshiped by the puny mortals who lust for power and a never-ending lifespan.
What are cultivators? They are mortals who dream for an everlasting life as they master their body, absorb the Qi of heaven, practice the art of cultivation and comprehend martial skills to get stronger. Cultivators can be the reason why a war start if they get into a conflict with another cultivator but they can also end a conflict if they are dominating enough.

Talented, Genius and Monstrous Evildoers are fated to shine in the world of cultivators. However, while many geniuses will appear, but how many of them will actually reach the end? How many will become immortals? How many would live long enough to rule the world with an iron fist? The world of cultivators is shrouded by bloodshed and many geniuses will fall, flying too close to the sun and thinking they were invincible.
Just because you are talented doesn’t mean you are invincible, just because you are strong doesn’t mean you won’t be killed one day. Some people are simply just frogs in the well and every single one of them doesn’t last very long due to their arrogance.
In the world of cultivation anything is possible, there have been cultivators that have created their own empires that will last millions of years or created new plane of existence and even creating a world where they themselves are
Swidden agriculture also known as slash-and-burn is depicted in a negative light because of myths that has been created from people who are not familiar with its practice or do not understands its purpose. One of the narrative is that it creates a useless and unsustainable land. This could be easily misunderstood as the image of the land after being burned can be seen lifeless and barren. People tend to associate a fertile land with lush greens with the sun in the background and not the image of swidden agriculture. Furthermore, media portrayal of wildfire only puts the idea that wildfire are harmful and should be put out which only makes swidden agriculture seem destructive.
They are abused physically, emotionally, and mentally not even knowing there is another side to life. Though they can 't tell you a picture is worth a thousand words. But natural farming is a free and peaceful way of giving to nature naturally when it gives back to you.
The Farmers' Grange was an important American movement in the late 19th century, according to Charles Postel's book. As mentioned on page 15 of the book, “this… group invented a new kind of association for America’s farmers (Postel 15). The Farmers' Grange was initially founded as a fraternal organization with the primary goal of enhancing the social and economic well-being of farmers and their families, but it quickly evolved into a potent political force. Fighting against railroad monopoly practices that set transportation and shipping costs in rural regions was one of the objectives of the Farmers' Grange. These high rates put farmers at a disadvantage, reducing their profitability and making it challenging for them to compete with bigger
One wouldn’t assume that a society that was as aware of its own ephemeral nature would subscribe to the notions of the quest for glory and greatness that we see so often in The Iliad, The Odyssey or in the historic accounts of
In farming there are many different plants and supplies you need to make these plants grow. The ranges of plants can go from beans to tobacco and the supplies list could go on forever. In farming you will always be owing someone something and trying to pay them back. Farming is just all around a gamble and a job you must love completely to do
During the time of Sophocles's prosperity, (490-410 BC), the gods and goddesses were often highly respected by the people there. They were believed to control all aspects of life. These gods, they believed, held the power to decide one’s fate. Sophocles wrote many tragedies in his life showcasing their power to the greatest extent. One of the most highly regarded is, “Oedipus the King”.
This ambition derived them from thinking about agriculture and maintaining a sustainable
“The gods envy us, they envy us because we 're mortal, because any moment may be our last. Everything is more beautiful because we 're doomed. You will never be lovelier than you are now. We will never be here again.” HERCULES
Introduction Human history is abundant in examples of individuals who have amassed such power with themselves that have allowed them to control entire populations, and often unleash tyranny and oppression upon millions of people. Throughout history there have been individuals who have held an iron grip over entire nations, concentrating totalitarian power with themselves, denying any freedom to people, crushing any form of dissent, and often unleashing mass violence, terror, and in some cases genocide. These people have shaped the future of peoples, regions and continents, starting wars and conflicts, and determining the course of millions of lives. And because of this very fact, that a single person could such a huge impact over the lives of so many people, it is very important to study the very factors that caused these individuals to make the decisions that they did, specifically, the factors and that shaped up the personality of these
The people are wanting an everlasting strong leader. “To him alone of men the gods had given everlasting life.” Utnapishtim now is immortal, also can potentially be another leader. “Enkidu, my brother whom i loved, the end of mortality has overtaken him.” When another God dies,
Yet it holds the same human experiences, same human emotions, and same human ambitions. It holds the same sentiments we hold dear today, such as life and friendship in utmost importance. It speaks of human ambition to be remembered and to live forever, that can be found even up to this day. Gilgamesh attributed his immortality with enduring monuments, such as the city of Uruk, modern day individuals, in the same manner, attribute their immortality with the name they made for themselves. The truth of society, how nature works, and how human beings relate with each other, and how man’s actions can influence other things, are greatly intertwined.
Misguided with corrupt morals, the gods are defined as tyrannical. They long for supremacy and will travel to extreme lengths to acquire this. Much like the gods, we as a society are enchanted by the idea of being the most superior. We would do anything to protect our image and achieve high power. This can be applied to the popularized concept of the American dream.
The Constant Gardener by John le Carré is an unusual novel in many respects. Combining the suspense and thrill of the espionage novel for which le Carré is justly famous, it exhibits, perhaps for the first time, the author’s deep-rooted humanism especially at the suffering of the less privileged living in the Third World countries among whom Africa ranks first. Though the novel could have easily slipped into some sort of sentimentality, le Carré has supported it with a mass of well-researched details which go to make up, with a great deal of authenticity, this narrative of exploitation and betrayal and blind profiteering from the sufferings of others. It lays bare the machinations and structures of monolithic corporations which manage to penetrate even such edifices like the WHO. The power of these global corporations transcend geographical boundaries and in today’s world of commerce they wield a power greater than that of governments and even policies of governments are made manipulable by the nexus that exists between the politicians, bureaucrats and the businessmen.
The agricultural technology that was invented during the medieval ages resulted in social and economic developments which affected the lives of those living in that period. The new machinery allowed the townspeople to grow a surplus of food and in result learn new specialties and trades. “When these people could produce a surplus, they were freed to do other things, which provided the basis for towns, cities, and civilization”( flowofhistory.com). Civilian life was made more comfortable because of the advancements that were made through the ages.
Introduction Plants are a major necessity in the balance of nature, people’s lives, and our terrain. We may not realize it, but plants are the ultimate source of food for almost 95% of the world population so says the National Group of Food.
