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 How does Zen affect life? - Zen meditation reduces stress and anxiety by promoting relaxation and deep-breathing techniques.

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

02.03.1998 - Interpretation by dali48 + update

A chronic malnutrition leads to depression or loss of love! - The free exchange of caress, - the instrument for the fulfillment of a human basic need - is so strictly regulated that it is made impossible for us. - The consequence is that we lost the ability to love, - and finally turned against us to a dressage of socially desirable behavior. - When people free themselves from the economy of the caress - then they will no longer do an alienated job, - and do not want to act responsibly in the sense of society. - Today it can be dangerous - if we want to share our experiences, - especially when we want to share our experiences with children. I mean that today we are exposed to the same pressure - when we search for knowledge about ourselves, - and our coexistence - like Galileo and Leonardo da Vinci! - "I am the doctor, let your body to me!" (= Incapacitation)! - An important part of one's own being, namely the feelings, is discredited - until the victim of denial does not allow one's own feelings. - You can ignore your feelings and act as if they were not. - The consequence is the detachment from one's own feelings, - often men choose this alternative and become cold and emotionless ... (Laing, 1968)

What does the Doctor say in Doctor Who? - “Life depends on change, and renewal.” Following his regeneration, the Doctor pointed out that change isn't necessarily a bad thing. “Some people live more in 20 years than others do in 80. It's not the time that matters, it's the person.”09.09.2024
Übersicht mit KIThe statement highlights the idea that detaching from one's own feelings can lead to emotional coldness and detachment, particularly among men. This detachment can be a conscious choice as a coping mechanism or a consequence of past trauma or learned behaviors, potentially impacting relationships. Here's a more detailed breakdown:Detachment as a Choice:The quote suggests that some men choose to suppress or detach from their emotions, potentially leading to an appearance of coldness and lack of feeling. Emotional Distance:This detachment can manifest as emotional unavailability, where individuals struggle to connect with others on an emotional level. Potential Causes:Various factors can contribute to emotional detachment, including past trauma, learned behaviors from childhood, or psychological conditions. Impact on Relationships:Emotional detachment can negatively impact relationships, as it can leave partners feeling unheard, unloved, and unsupported. Coping Mechanism:For some, detachment can be a way to cope with stress or protect themselves from potential hurt, but it can also hinder healthy emotional expression. 

Marketing and advertising are nothing more than selling people and things by lying! Newspapers and TV live from selling (by lies). - In order to save the everyday life of the people, their life experience, their political situation and their (missing) freedoms. - In the school is lied by omission. - Which students learn that politicians are bought by the industry? - Madness is a terrible experience: Nights of nightmares and insomnia, endless fears and torments, days of inability to do even the slightest, - and paralyzing immobility, confusion, fragmentation of thinking, of distrust, of despair, of the mockery and contempt by the others, - and of the ever-recurring desire to take ones life. - Consciousness, untroubled perception, respect and promotion of one's own ability - are the antidote to madness. - Paranoia is a state of sharpened consciousness ... (R. D. Laing)

Does marketing involve lying? - Marketing lies are so common because of a fundamental error in how people view marketing; if marketing is meant to make people buy your stuff, you'll easily slide toward marketing lies. That is, if you don't already have an exceptionally strong aversion toward lying in any situation.

What is lying in marketing called? - False advertising involves making statements about a product that can be proven to be a lie or misrepresentation. You can make a broad statement that your yogurt is the best yogurt, and that's puffery as long as the ad doesn't name any of the competitors.
Übersicht mit KINo, paranoia is not accurately described as a "state of sharpened consciousness." While paranoia involves heightened awareness of one's surroundings and a sense of suspicion, it's not a positive or healthy state of increased mental clarity. Instead, paranoia is characterized by irrational distrust and suspicion of others, often leading to distorted perceptions and beliefs. Here's why the statement is inaccurate:Distorted Perception:Paranoia involves perceiving threats or negative intentions where none exist, rather than a heightened or accurate understanding of reality. Irrational Beliefs:Paranoid individuals hold beliefs that are not supported by evidence and may even be contradicted by evidence. Negative Impact:Paranoia can lead to significant distress, social isolation, and impaired functioning in daily life, which are not characteristics of a "sharpened consciousness". Instead of sharpened consciousness, paranoia is better understood as:A state of heightened vigilance and distrust:Individuals with paranoia are constantly on guard, scanning their environment for potential threats. A misinterpretation of social cues:They may misinterpret neutral or even positive interactions as hostile or threatening. A tendency to personalize events:They may attribute negative events to themselves or believe that others are intentionally targeting them. In conclusion, while paranoia involves a heightened sense of awareness, it is not a positive or healthy state. It's a distorted perception of reality that can negatively impact an individual's well-being and social interactions. 

What is the root cause of paranoia? - No one knows exactly what causes paranoia. It's likely to be a combination of different things, such as: Difficult experiences in your childhood such as being bullied or abused. Low self-esteem.

Do narcissists get paranoid? - They are convinced that others are plotting against them, which fuels their manipulative and controlling behaviors. These paranoid narcissistic traits create emotional chaos in relationships, making it essential to recognize the warning signs before falling into their web of suspicion and manipulation.11.03.2025
