What is Reality Really?

Do you always remember your dreams? Do you have premonitions of what’s to come and wonder how this is possible? Have you experienced Deja Vues? Have you been advised to “Fake It Till You Make It”? How much of our life experiences are REAL? How much can we possibly KNOW? What can we ever be…

Tolerance

The other day a friend talked to me about her believes. She compared Jesus to Mohammed and to L. Ron Hubbard and said they all had been geniuses in their own ways, and all have had beautiful thoughts – it was the church institutions that “messed it up”, by creating sick hierarchies for power struggles…

Thoughts about Numbers

Humans always seem to need “reference points”: the year in which they were born, and their height and weight. They want to know where it all starts and ends. To define the point “zero” in year, temperature, longitude, etc… But how do you determine the beginning of a circle? Where is the point zero on…

Thoughts about Christianity

Having grown up in a Bavarian village, I learnt a lot about the ideas and values of Christianity. I read the bible many times so far, the old and new testament. While I felt God as described in the old testament was revengeful, unforgiving and angry, I liked most of what Jesus had to say.…

The Freedom to Choose Morals

Looking at “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo”, I encountered an interesting question: the lead character Lisbeth makes choices of revenge, retaliation and kills mercilessly. We, the audience, are supposed to route for her and accept her brutality. Her adversaries have been victims of abuse themselves. Still, we are supposed to withhold understanding or mercy…

Sometimes when I hear or see a horrible, brutal thing, it usually involves human behavior. I wonder how humans can commit such an act. Thinking about it, I try to look beyond the moral judgments of “bad” and “evil” that limit my perspective while trying to understand the actual motivation behind the act.   In…

Networks

The concept of individual identity – as separated from a “God-consciousness” outside of us – has never made sense to me. Nature teaches us that everything exists in networks: all material existence, be it organic (humans, animals, plants) or inorganic (minerals, energies like fire, water, etc) consist of networks of particles or waves. All changes…

Meditation

Meditation is an urgent need of the soul, as food, drink and rest is for the body. Meditation aligns your body, your mind and your soul into the large, eternal entity you are. It heals mental, physical and soul imbalances, without you having to “do” anything. I sit in a comfortable position on a chair,…

Living on Remote Control

In our society, every person is supposed to operate under a strangely assumed “law of purpose”. That means we expect everything to be useful, effective and serving an important purpose – which in turns validates us as “responsible beings”. Not doing anything – or creating anything without purpose strikes us as a “waste of time”,…
