31.10.1999 - Interpretation of dali48

But we are messing ourselves up, - we are embarking on strange relationships that do not bear fruit. - A religious life is a process of reconciliation at any moment, incessantly. - If we really share what we have, - our time, our possessions, our home, ourselves, - our life will be harmonious and undisturbed. - We can give something from us and open ourselves, - or we can keep it and dry up. - Close in relationships the door to criticism and indelicacy! - Dedication can not be forced - through nagging, annoyance, denial, through any coquettish maneuvers, even though we try all this! - We do not necessarily have to dedicate ourselves to another human being. - We can also give ourselves to solitude ... - For most of us, the least are the people we do not like - or with whom we have difficulties. - To meet our expectations we are ruining families, nations, everything. - Every war has such fixed ideas as the cause, - an ideology which is held by a nation for the truth! - False thinking is always dictatorial. - It wants to push the world into a scheme - instead of opening itself to the obvious necessities (see e.g. solar & wind energy, see a tiny UBI etc. - d.48). - Zen as a way, - in order to get to grips with everyday problems! - Zen as an attitude - which helps us in relationships, at work, in our fears and suffering ... (C. J. Beck, San Diego)

There was nothing to see. No goal after which one could strive. - There was simply the unity and the totality of life itself. - All the old questions, which were not questions at all, answered by themselves ... (Mushin)

Kurt VonnegutJr. (* 11. November 1922 in Indianapolis; † 11. April 2007 in New York) war ein US-amerikanischer Schriftsteller, der unter anderem durch ...

Der Schriftsteller war nicht religiös, sondern stammte aus einer Familie mit langer Freidenkertradition. Er war Ehrenpräsident der American Humanist Association und gehörte zu den Erstunterzeichnern des Humanistischen Manifests III. In Vonneguts Romanen finden sich aber immer wieder Auseinandersetzungen mit der Religion, die er infrage stellte oder gar ad absurdum führte, auf grundlegende Weise erstmals in seinem Frühwerk The Sirens of Titan (1959).

Der Atheist und Humanist Vonnegut sah in der Religion einen Versuch der Menschen, ihre Einsamkeit zu überwinden. Gegen die Einsamkeit, die zuletzt die Kleinfamilie zerstört, setzte Kurt Vonnegut in dem Roman Slapstick die Utopie einer (künstlichen) Großfamilie. Kurt Vonnegut äußerte sich skeptisch über das Gelingen der Liebe und deren Wohltaten. Die Menschen brauchten nach seiner Auffassung weniger Liebe als vielmehr allgemeinen Anstand im Umgang miteinander.


Trotz seines Erfolgs kämpfte Vonnegut mit seinen eigenen Dämonen. Nachdem er jahrelang immer wieder an Depressionen gelitten hatte, versuchte er 1984, sich das Leben zu nehmen. Welchen persönlichen Herausforderungen er auch gegenüberstand, Vonnegut wurde zu einer literarischen Ikone mit einer treuen Anhängerschaft.20.04.2021
