Hikikomori...

"Die Forscher erwarten, dass demnächst ein japanisches Wort in die deutsche Sprache gelangt, vielleicht sogar in den Duden, so wie einst Karoshi – Tod durch Überarbeitung. Der neue Kandidat des Instituts, ein Exportprodukt des japanischen Stillstands, heißt Kodokushi – Tod in Einsamkeit."

Der Artikel hat mich gerade einigermaßen fassungslos gemacht. :/

lt. Faz liegt die Jugendarbeitslosigkeit in Japan noch unterhalt der von Deutschland (7,9%)

so recht kann ich der Zeit da nicht glauben, bzw. bezweifel die Dramatik. Die Rolle junger Leute insbesondere Männer in fremden Ländern zu analysieren ist bei der Zeit gerade eine Art Schreibtischsport, hier ein - nicht minder erschütternder Artikel (zu Indien): http://www.zeit.de/2014/25/vergewaltigu ... alt-frauen

hingegen ist der Blick der Welt-Redakteure auf DE gerichtet: "Ist die deutsche Jugend sexuell komplett enthemmt?" http://www.welt.de/regionales/hamburg/a ... hemmt.html (komischerweise ist der Artikel lt. Url unter /regionales/hamburg/ eingsortiert, so dass offen bleibt, ob statt deutschter Jugendlicher eher die Kids aus Hamburg gemeint sind :lol: )

Permaculture, Ayahuasca, and Social Justice Unite in the Amazon:

(...)

The Amazon and much of the world's wild areas are threatened by human development, which seems to be both a crisis of human exploitative action, and a symptom of a disconnected and fear-based human consciousness. Through the Temple and the Chaikuni institute you are addressing both of these factors- the material through permaculture and the subtle through ayahuasca retreats. What do you see as the niche roles for these two approaches and how do they interrelate? Is one more important or pressing than the other?

"I see the two areas as directly related and equally important. Energy gives rise to matter. At our core we are energetic beings. When we carry negative energies - inner shadows - they block our systems, resulting in emotional, mental, and physical imbalance. These negative energies come from trauma. Trauma is a fact of life and shared by us all. It has become so commonplace that most people don’t even realize its presence. Trauma is felt by everyone at some stage in our lives. Unresolved and unintegrated trauma leaves negative energies in our system, resulting in past pain leaching into and driving our present day experience.

This internal disorder is outwardly projected and collectively accumulates, creating the disorder that we see across the planet: into our families and communities, into our society, into business, politics, and mainstream religions, permeating out and affecting our entire civilization. The collective shadow influences every aspect of our lives. At the very depth of our global crisis there is a calling for an unprecedented transformation and collective healing.

The cruelty, madness, and injustices that we face across the planet, driven through the dominion of corporations and organized religions, are emanations of our shadow, both personally and collectively. When we are able to face our shadow, recognizing the opportunity and transformational potential of integrating our pain, balance within is restored. The more of us who return to our natural state of Being, the more the outer landscape will subsequently reflect the harmony within.

All negative emotions, whether fear, sadness, depression, anger, panic, etc., are ‘altered’ states of consciousness. When we return to our natural state of consciousness, we reclaim a loving relationship with our authentic Self. This relationship then begins to extend to everyone and everything around us. When we return to this state of Being, it is only natural to come into service, and hear a call to action to tirelessly seek solutions to the issues that we face on our planet. By re-embracing our connection with the natural world, especially through appropriate and respectful use of plant medicines, nature itself can bring our species back into alignment and harmony with each other and to the environment around us.

At the Temple’s core, we are focused on causal medicine – a healthcare system assisted by plant medicines that reaches to the energetic cause of our issues – which brings balance and the remembrance of our interconnectedness to nature. Through working with ayahuasca we are able to recognize the shadow and the opportunity that sits at the core of all negativity, which, when faced and integrated, is a powerful catalyst for transformation and spiritual evolution.

By facing our shadow we are often met on the other side with a remembrance of our purpose. A deep passion or calling is re-awakened within us – in our case, to commit our lives to traditional healthcare, preservation of indigenous traditions, permaculture, environmental advocacy, and education. When this happens, your creativity expands exponentially and a stream of inspired new ideas begins to flow. In permaculture terms, as we regenerate within ourselves, we are then called to regenerate the land around us.

There is no dualism here. As we address the subtle, the material follows. Each individual's personal healing moves the world towards a collective critical mass of positive transformation. A hunger to serve the collective purpose of the planet and all its beings follows. For us, the mission of the Temple and our NGOs is driven by this sense of hungry enthusiasm to work together creatively and effectively towards participating in creating a new vision for the world around us, one that comes from our light and no longer from our shadow."

Kein Wunder, wenn die sich nicht an "richtige" Ganoven trauen, brauchen fürs Festhalten eines einzelnen ne Hundertschaft. Von den Typen zahl ich über meine Steuern mind. zwei, was für ne erbärmliche Gegenleistung.

Der Baader der seine Ideale aus den Augen verlor und sie als Rechtfertigung nutzte Verbrechen zu begehen die schließlich in der Mai-Offensive mündeten? Der hätte sich doch selbst erschossen, nachdem er gemerkt hätte das seine Taten Konsequenzen haben.

Der Junge Mann sieht höchst gefährlich aus. In voller Kampfbereitschaft hatte er bereits Jacke, Pullover und Socken ausgezogen. Da hätte nur noch ein Schlüsselreiz gefehlt und er wäre zum unbändigen Tier mutiert. Von der Leyen wird schon dafür sorgen, dass uns das Militär endlich auch im innern vor diesen Verrückten schützt!

People Would Rather Experience An Electric Shock Than Be Alone With Their Thoughts

Hundreds of participants were left in a room by themselves for several minutes with nothing to do but think. Rather than complete the task, many of them chose to administer electric shocks to themselves. As it turns out, most people prefer to do something rather than nothing, even if that something is negative, according to a study published in Science last week.

In a series of 11 experiments, a team led by Timothy Wilson from the University of Virginia asked 409 college students to be alone with their thoughts in a bare room for 6 to 15 minutes: no phones, books, pens for doodling, or distractions of any kind. Just stay awake, be quiet, and sit idly in their seats. Some were given specific prompts, like plan a food outing, while others could think about whatever.

“We went into this thinking it wouldn’t be that hard for people to entertain themselves,” Wilson tells Science. “We have this huge brain and it’s stuffed full of pleasant memories, and we have the ability to construct fantasies and stories.”

But daydreaming may not be as enjoyable when we’re forced to do it on command. Half the volunteers reported on a 9-point scale that the experience was not enjoyable. Most found it difficult to concentrate, and even more said their minds continually wandered, even when nothing was competing for their attention. A group asked to perform the same task at home found the experience even less enjoyable; a third of them reported cheating.

Those assigned an external activity, like listening to music or reading a book, liked that twice as much as “thinking time.” When the team repeated the experiment with people ages 18 to 77 recruited from a farmers’ market and a church, they got similar results. There were some general trends: People who thought about future events with friends or family fared better than those who thought about work.

In one last experiment, 67 percent of the men and 25 percent of the women chose to give themselves a mild electric jolt -- like a little static electricity shock -- rather than complete the entire “thinking period.” Beforehand, when given a sample, most said they’d pay $5 not to be zapped again -- but when the time came, they still pushed the button.

“The mind is designed to engage with the world,” Wilson says in a news release. “Even when we are by ourselves, our focus usually is on the outside world.” The team is working on the exact reasons why people find it difficult to be alone with their own thoughts.

Wilson intends to pursue ways to tame this “disengaged mind.” He often imagines being a castaway on an deserted island as he’s falling asleep. “There are lots of times in our daily lives, when we have a little bit of time out, or are stuck in traffic or trying to get to sleep,” he explains to Nature. “Having this as a tool in our mental toolbox as a way to retreat or reduce stress would be a useful thing to do.”
