Don't teach me tradition
Follow my blog with Bloglovin Are we conditioned to lie? Now I know that may seem to be a jump from the question ‘why do relationships fail’ but bear with me. We have a lot of automatic responses. A result of habit, picked up as far as back from our childhood. Saying the right things, the socially acceptable thing. Even simple things like saying, thank…
We are satisfied with words, explanations. We see an object and name it, feel an emotion and name it. Never facing the emotion, or seeing the object. We name and dismiss, it is an automatic habitual process for most of us. See a flower, name it so, but never actually look at it. We see the explanation and not the flower. This is how we…
Who gets rejected? Who is rejecting? I am afraid of being humiliated, maybe that’s because of one’s childhood. Strict parents etc. The reason does not matter. Knowing the reasons for problems hasn’t solved the problems. I read a book, read something about the psychology of the problem, then I say ‘oh that must be it’. Then I go on to tell someone else, or even…
I don’t agree with the early posts on this blog that I’ve written. I cringe when I read them. How could I have been that stupid? The thing is I am not sure about the things I write, I think and certain things kinda make sense. I write about that. Then again the same thing does not apply to a different area if you know…
Set an intention – the spiritual teacher said. It is all about intention. Set your intentions before meditation. that’s when you have to seriously question, whether the so-called spiritual teacher knows anything about meditation. I know something about meditation. And it is not that. The intention is a product of thought. And meditation is anything but thought. Intention creates effort. Because it sets an expectation….
So, Here we are. What am I to talk about? Starting all articles the same way. That is what I think about when I am about to start writing. So it seems to be fitting that I write it here. Authentic isn’t it? Is trying to be authentic, authenticity? Is trying to be honest, honesty? The thinking is, or the reaction is, I believe that…
It’s laziness. When we look up to a guru, a book, a coach, a savior, it is the relinquishment of responsibility and making someone else responsible. Someone else is the teacher, the coach, etc. If you are the very first person on earth, who would you look up to? You have to find out for yourself. That brings a great deal of competence and…
Some relationship advice now. I am not a relationship expert by any means. I have some experience in coaching people on relationships before. I have taken numerous courses around this subject, even got married for two months (fake) to try out what marriage feels like. Now, it is not the real deal but it is something. These are my observations in my own relationships and…
I don’t think there is such a thing as fear of the unknown. Here’s why. You don’t know what is going to happen so why are you afraid of something that you don’t know about? You don’t know if it is harmful to you. Is it because we don’t know whether what is not known is good or bad for us? We only know what…
