LADISLAV HEJDÁNEK ARCHIVES | Cardfile
Here you will find a digitized image of Hejdánek's original filing cabinet. Its total volume is many thousand tickets. We publish them in parts as we handle them. At the moment we have worked out what prof. Hejdánek himself developed electronically. However, much work remains on paper cards. In addition to Hejdánek's extracts from reading, the filing cabinet also includes his own thought work from recent years, which cannot be found elsewhere.

Filosofie - dobrodružství | Skepse a dogmatismus | Dogmatismus a skepse
Alfred North Whitehead
(1939)
Lidský rod pozůstává z malé skupiny živočichů, která se po krátkou dobu diferencovala od celku živočišného života na malé planetě obíhající kolem malého slunce. Vesmír je rozsáhlý. Nic není podivnější než ten samolibý dogmatismus, jak si lidstvo v každém období své historie libuje v klamu definitivnosti právě existujících způsobů poznání. Skeptici a věřící jsou na tom stejně. V přítomné době jsou vedoucími dogmatiky vědci a skeptici. Pokrok v detailu se připouští; základní novost se zavrhuje. Tento dogmatický zdravý rozum znamená konec filosofického dobrodružství. Vesmír je rozsáhlý.

Bůh a stvoření
Apollonius of Tyana
()
„In no other manner, I believe, can one exhibit a fitting respect for the Divine being, beyond any other men make sure of being singled out as an object of his favor and good-will, than by refusing to offer to God – whom we termed First, who is One and separate from all, as subordinate to Whom we must recognize all the rest – any victim at all; to Him we must not kindle fire or make promise unto Him of any sensible object whatsoever. For He needs nothing even from beings higher than ourselves. Nor is there any plant or animal which earth sends up or nourishes, to which some pollution is not incident. We should make use in relation to Him solely of the higher speech, I mean of that which issues not by the lips; and from the noblest faculty we possess, and that faculty is intelligence, which needs no organ. On these principles then we ought not on any account to sacrifice to the mighty and supreme God.“
