Each day is our whole life - from sunrise to sunset etc… (dali48) 

see dali48 and "Zen finds religion in the daily activities." (I-tuan), see Does Zen believe in a soul? - However, the Buddha taught that there are no such things as a permanent Self or Soul which can be reincarnated or reborn after death (Rahula, 1974: page 3). The Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh believes there is no reincarnation in Buddhism (Miller, 2012).

see What is a Zen spirit? - Zen is defined as a state of calm where actions are guided by intuition rather than by conscious effort. The term comes from the Japanese pronunciation of the Chinese word Chan – with roots to the Indian practice of thinking and meditating known as Dhyana.

see What is the psychology of Zen? - Zen is experiential, not didactic. Enlightenment relies heavily on intuition, metaphor, and poetry. The master can point in the general direction toward wisdom, but each person must find their own personal path.19.03.2022

see Is Zen ok for Christians? - Because they are not on the same plane, Zen and Christianity do not conflict. Graham in his book, Zen Catholicism also points out that there is no harm in applying Zen insights into Catholicism.

see Does Zen believe in afterlife? - In Zen, Life and Death are one, a continuum, and they are not separated and there is no dividing line between them (as, indeed, there is actually no dividing line between anything, there only seems to be – divisions are arbitrary and made to enable us to function in the finite world, what Zen calls 'the world of form') ...10.03.2014

see How does Zen affect life? - Zen meditation reduces stress and anxiety by promoting relaxation and deep-breathing techniques. It helps people to manage their emotions, gain clarity of mind and experience deep peace and emotional well-being. The practice halts constant intrusive thoughts.09.05.2024

see What makes a person Zen? - They don't let stress, anger, or frustration get the better of them. According to the Cambridge Dictionary, the word “zen” refers to a person's ability to remain calm and relaxed in the face of difficulties and not worry about things out of their control.27.02.2021

see Is Zen good for Mental Health? - Meditation and mindfulness practices like Zen Therapy have also been shown to have a variety of other positive effects, both mentally and physically, such as promoting feelings of calmness, improving sleep and immune function, reducing feelings of stress and increasing self-awareness.09.11.2022

Let go of something you like, and realize how fleeting it is by living without it... (Ayya Khema) 

What is the Buddhist quote about pain? - A quote usually attributed to Buddha says, “Pain is inevitable but suffering is optional.” What a profound statement! There is no suffering if you can let go. Pain becomes immaterial in the absence of suffering.29.01.2012

Buddha realized that all living beings suffer because they desire and cling ... - Peace is an inner attitude to life that consists of letting go and renunciation (see e.g. nuns & monks etc. - d.48) ... (Buddha)

10.08.1997 - Interpretation of dali48 + update
The functional thinking of science is e.g. A rootless thinking. - It lacks the reconnection to the primal ground, - the "religio"...
All the difficulties we have with our partner - are difficulties that we have with us! - Our relationship to our unconscious is always ambivalent! - It irritates us and we are afraid of it! - Our relationship to the partner is equally ambivalent - we love and hate him, want to possess him completely and want to get rid of him, - find him wonderful and terrible...
Through illness you can almost always achieve what you would get without symptoms: attention, share, money, leisure, help and control over others! - The secondary disease gain, which results from the use of the symptom as a power instrument - often prevents healing...

But what has become of the souls? - Nothing has changed in them; they are still dead or blind, deaf, stiff, cramped, crippled, but we do not see it! - That is why the fear of honesty is so great! - The constant work on our soul would be far more important than the one-sided care of our body, - for the body is perishable, consciousness is not... (Dethlefsen / Dahlke)

In what way is your soul more important than your body? - One day you will die and your body will be laid in the ground. But your soul will last forever. So, “Do not fear those who kill the body, but cannot kill the soul.” Your soul has an endless life. That's why it's so important.

How do the body, soul, and spirit work together? - Your body is the physical part of you; your spirit is the breath of life that God formed in you—the core blueprint of who you are; and your soul consists of your mind, will, and emotions. Your body is completely material, your spirit is completely immaterial, and your soul is somewhere in between.08.02.2010

Is our soul male or female? - For us Catholics, God creates the human soul directly at each bodily conception, and so there is no sense in which the soul or human form is male or female except insofar as it is infused into a male or female body as its form.

How do I give my soul rest? - Sometimes we face situations that keep our minds and emotions so tense that we can feel the weariness on the inside even if we are physically rested. An easy way to rest the soul is to take a deep breath, get quiet, and focus on something else for a while.                                                                                                               Übersicht mit KI "Dethlefsen / Dahlke" bezieht sich auf die Zusammenarbeit der beiden deutschen Autoren Thorwald Dethlefsen und Ruediger Dahlke im Bereich der Psychosomatik, insbesondere durch ihr gemeinsames Werk "Krankheit als Weg". In "Krankheit als Weg" betrachten sie Krankheit nicht als reines körperliches Phänomen, sondern als Ausdruck einer tieferen seelischen oder spirituellen Botschaft. Sie untersuchen, welche Bedeutung und welches Potential in verschiedenen Krankheitsbildern liegen und wie diese als Weg zur Selbstfindung und -heilung genutzt werden können. Thorwald Dethlefsen war ein deutscher Psychologe und Psychotherapeut, der sich intensiv mit esoterischer Psychologie beschäftigte und verschiedene Therapieformen entwickelte. Ruediger Dahlke ist ein deutscher Arzt, Autor und Seminarleiter, der ebenfalls im Bereich der Psychosomatik tätig ist und seine Arbeiten mit spirituellen Dimensionen verbindet. Er ist bekannt für seine Bücher und Seminare zu Themen wie Krankheit als Weg, Schattenarbeit und Lebensprinzipien. Die Zusammenarbeit von Dethlefsen und Dahlke hat maßgeblich dazu beigetragen, die Psychosomatik im deutschsprachigen Raum zu popularisieren und zu einer breiteren Öffentlichkeit zugänglich zu machen. 
How does illness affect human behavior? - Such illness responses include lethargy, depression, anxiety, malaise, loss of appetite, sleepiness, hyperalgesia, reduction in grooming and failure to concentrate. Sickness behavior is a motivational state that reorganizes the organism's priorities to cope with infectious pathogens.
Übersicht mit KI The statement "Our relationship to our unconscious is always ambivalent" suggests that our feelings and attitudes toward our unconscious mind are complex and contradictory. We both desire to understand and connect with it, while also fearing or resisting it. This ambivalence can manifest as a conflict between conscious desires and unconscious motivations, or as a tension between wanting to explore the unconscious and fearing what we might find there. Here's a more detailed explanation: Ambivalence Defined: Ambivalence, in this context, refers to having conflicting, simultaneous feelings (like love and hate) towards something. In the case of the unconscious, it means experiencing both attraction and repulsion, or both desire and fear. Why Ambivalence?: The unconscious is often associated with powerful emotions, repressed memories, and hidden desires that can be both alluring and frightening. This inherent duality can lead to a state of ambivalence. Examples: Psychotherapy: People may start therapy seeking self-understanding but then unconsciously resist exploring painful or challenging aspects of their unconscious. Relationships: We might love someone deeply while simultaneously harboring negative feelings or resentments towards them, a common experience in intimate relationships. Self-Knowledge: The desire for self-knowledge can be accompanied by a fear of what we might discover about ourselves, leading to ambivalence about self-reflection. Consequences: Unconscious ambivalence can lead to various psychological issues, including anxiety, avoidance, and difficulty making decisions. It can also manifest as a struggle to accept conflicting emotions and thoughts. Navigating Ambivalence: Being aware of and accepting this ambivalence is crucial for personal growth and well-being. It involves acknowledging both the positive and negative aspects of our feelings and thoughts, rather than suppressing or denying them.
