Humans are Animals ,  when you play chess you FORGET for a minute, for a hour you are not a human being. 

When you are playing chess, you are not a human anymore.  If you are not a human you are not an animal.   You are a kind of God. 

but ,  ¿ What does it mean  to play chess ?   Many of you people do not know what is play chess indeed.  If you distract with music or barking dogs , you are not playing chess, you are listening to music or the dogs. 

If you have a voice in your mind , let´s say you were born in Burundi and your language is the Kirundi , this voice tell you things  , that is not chess.  Trust in the empty , don´t make you questions during the game to improve your position. 

You have to feel chess like a good pianist feels music when he plays. He does not need remember the notes, he just play in the right way.

 It´s not an emotion, because emotions are fake like thoughts ,  emotions  are illusions and they come from your brain ( which is not yours )  to manipulate your actions and your body experiences . 

You have to feel the action .  You have to be the action itself. The total union between the board and the player.

Some people says,   The Fast Time Controls are killing the game,  its not true, you know,   the clock is also part of the game  and you must consider it.  The clock is not a human as you  when you are playing chess.  

You are the board, you are the clock, you are the pieces, but you are not  a human after you shake your hands with your opponent.
