darkinertia - April 10, 2006 02:03 AM (GMT)
a lot of people have asked me what my name means...a lot. o be honest, i didnt know the WHOLE story, just a lil of it, but its a really really cool explanation and fits me perfectly :D
this is what my friend found out, which is also my guitarist in our band called...you guess it, darkinertia
| QUOTE (will) |
Dude im blown away...the meaning of Dark Inertia is sooo cool. it came from a book called "Guna" or sometimes referred to as the three qualities. ok so heres the deal in the book there are three qualities of human beings (this is all philosophy btw) these qualities are based on the philosophy of "good and evil" which im sure you are aware of. these include
------GOOD------ first: Lucidity- This is the full conciousness to do good for yourself. meaning you are easy to understand and are in control. "Lucid Dreams" are derived from this because lucid dreaming is the tendancy to have control over yourself in your dreams.
second: Passion- passion is the act of doing good for others. passion and lucidity are two forms of good. The movie passion of christ was named that because christ was passionate for others
-----EVIL----- Third: Dark Inertia- Dark Inertia is the tendancy to do evil act towards other people or yourself. the name dark inertia can be broken down DARK--- Meaning Evil or bad INERTIA--- the tendancy of an object to keep moving
dark inertia or "Evil Tendancy"
Let me break this down even more though. This is a quote directly out of the book
"Dark inertia is born of ignorance, it deludes all embodied selves. Dark inertia binds down the self with heedlessness, indolence, and sleep." ---------------------------------------------------------------------- DEFINE: Heedlessness----inattentiveness: a lack of attentiveness (as to children or helpless people) the trait of acting rashly and without prudence. the trait of forgetting or ignoring your responsibilities.
Indolence----inactivity resulting from a dislike of work. Laziness is the lack of desire to act or to work, to stretch one's forces; tendency to rest, to do nothing.
Sleep---- What Will did to 8 pm today
delude---- be false to; be dishonest with. to decieve
embodied----the way in which human (or any other animal's) psychology arises from the brain's and body's physiology. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
so that statement in the book means to bind yourself down with dark inertia qualities. anyways it's a very interesting philosophy and here are some really cool quotes. maybe we will eventually do a song with this philosophy like how a7x did with chpt4
**********
Lucidity, passion, dark inertia, these qualities born from nature bind down the inexhaustible soul in the body.
Of these, lucidity, which, in consequence of being untainted, is enlightening and free from all misery, binds the soul with the bond of pleasure and the bond of knowledge.
Know that passion consists in being enamored, and is produced from craving and attachment. Passion binds down the embodied self with the bond of action.
Dark inertia is born of ignorance, it deludes all embodied selves. Dark inertia binds down the self with heedlessness, indolence, and sleep.
Lucidity unites the self with pleasure; passion unites the self with action; and dark inertia unites the self with heedlessness, after shrouding up knowledge.
Passion and dark inertia being repressed, lucidity stands.
Passion and lucidity being repressed, dark inertia stands and likewise dark inertia and lucidity being repressed, passion stands.

Eso - April 10, 2006 04:38 AM (GMT)
After I learned about the word "esoteric" I wanted that to be my name. However, there's already a rapper named Esoteric, so I had to think of another name, so I just shortened it to Eso. Then I found out there are some other rappers out there named Eso but they're not big time. In fact, they suck.
So I've been using this name in whatever I do... rapping, bboying, fighting games, etc.
god - April 10, 2006 05:08 AM (GMT)
yea my name... lol... i always try to get god as my sn first cuz usually its under the character limit or is taken or w/e
also, like if in class, sb (esp a girl) say omg, i'll ans "what u want"?
hope nobody offended... wierd cuz some ppl who believe in gods get offended cuz its slander or sth cuz they dont believe i m worthy of a god, and ppl who dont believe in gods get offended cuz they think i am somehow really acting as if i thought i was a god
stm in class, or w/e, ppl will address me as god if they have a question and want my help...
mainly cuz one time this girl wanted my help but since i was standing behind her, she was like, why do u always stand ... r u really acting/thinking u r a god?
and i sez, its always the servant standing and serving the master, and god is at ur service... everyone thought it was cool... and i been answering to omg (and stm god) b4 that and ever since
yea this is santa monica high skool, CA

I find it quite offensive but since you didn't spell it with a capital 'G' it isn't that offensive.
Anyway my name stands for everything.

Joshua - April 14, 2006 06:41 PM (GMT)
My first name. I'm a creative person, but when it comes to names I'm proud of mine. And besides, I don't want a cheesy nick-name to get credit in a PS video. When I start doing them, I mean.
My pens all have cool names though. haha
