This blog is about fairness; about looking at objects from multiple perspectives. Stable transformation comes only slowly; and only if the environment is free of sporadic jitters of passion and anger that destabilize growth. I strongly believe that the path to peace crosses through the battle with self.

My weekend photos
It's interesting how the colors turned out as I uploaded the images on blogger. For original colors, click on images. eeerm ... actually all the colors are mangled. Oh well this is joint art, by me and the color coding process of google :)
"Ghorbanat" means literally: "Sacrificed". It alludes to the sacrifice of Abraham and also to the Love that is willing to sacrifice itself in lieu of the beloved. And behind it all is the brutal and bloody history of Iran.
I personally dislike it since it reeks of fear and false frightened humility of the slaves - something which was forced on our ancestors by Mongols and others in order to survive.
okey I figured how to fix this, I have to sage RGB colors :)
ReplyDeletedid you take the pics?
ReplyDeleteAh, great change of topic!
ReplyDeleteThanks for diverting my attention from fascism happening in my other post!
Yes these are my pictures; but not RGB coded. I will replace these with original colors tonight :)
Dear Naj,
ReplyDeleteWould you be so kind please to tell me what the persian word "ghorbaent" means
Thank's a lot and kind regards!
Anna,
ReplyDelete"ghorbanet" means "yours", "yours truly", a non formal way of saying yours sincerely!
Thank you very much, Naj

pen Name
Oh, pen Name!
ReplyDeleteThat's a very interesting etymologic explanation, with a somewhat problematic meaning indeed.
Well I don't think it was used this way though, rather in the way Naj told me.
But anyway thank you very much, pen Name. I appreciate very much your huge knowledges.
