Three ways to make life more enjoyable.

Three ways to make life more enjoyable.



In order to live well in the world, you need to handle three relationships well. First of all, it is the relationship between people and nature. The second is the relationship between people, and the third is the relationship of contradiction and equilibrium between thoughts and emotions. Life can be enjoyable if you handle these three relationships well. Otherwise, life will be hard.


Humans belong to the category of Mother Nature. However, after human beings were self-proclaimed as the 'primate of all things, they began to stand alone from Mother Nature. Sometimes, it is at odds with nature. All resources related to human food, clothing and shelter come from nature. So it is inevitable to get something from nature. How you get it is so important. There are two means. The peaceful way and the coercive way.


The modern world sees nature as an object of 'conquest' and takes the latter method.


There are traces showing that there is a limit to the forgiveness of nature, such as environmental pollution, imbalance of ecology, destruction of the ozone layer, and extinction of animals and plants.


It is necessary to change the view that nature is not something to be conquered, but a companion to protect and walk with mankind.


​


Relationships with people require sincerity and an attitude of humanity.


Integrity is dealing with others with genuine feelings and sincerity. Humanity is patience and forgiveness.


The 'Baekbeon-Jamgi', which was introduced by Jang crafts during the Tang Dynasty, is a historically famous example.


It is a famous story of 'Baekin-in', where the emperor came to visit and asked, "How do nine generations live happily in one house?" and a Jang craftsman wrote 100 characters for 'be patient.


​


Contradictions caused by thoughts and emotions in the mind usually stem from self-interest and idle thoughts. There is only one way to resolve such a contradiction. It's about getting rid of selfishness.


"Speaking out with simplicity, reaching far away with stillness."


- Zhuge Liang


Then you will reach a higher level.

Fatigue society, excess of positivity, dialectic of positivity.

 Fatigue society, excess of positivity, dialectic of positivity. ​ ​ ​ Each age has its own disease. For example, there is an era that can be said to be bacterial. But this era came to an end, at least with the invention of antibiotics. The beginning of the 21st century can be defined pathologically as neither bacterial nor viral, but rather neurotic. It is an infarct disease, not a contagious disease, and it is a disease caused by an excess of positivity, not the negativity of the immunological other. Therefore, it is by no means governed by immunological techniques aimed at defeating the negativity of others. ​ The last century was the immunological age. In other words, it was an era in which clear boundaries were drawn between the inside and the outside, friends and enemies, and me and others. The essence of immunological behavior is aggression and defense. There is a certain blindness in the essence of these immunological devices that have taken over the entire society from the...

The Truth of Perspectiveism, Maturana.

 The Truth of Perspectiveism, Maturana. "The observer is the source of all things. Without the observer nothing exists. The observer is the basis of all knowledge. The basis of all claims concerning man himself, the world and the universe. The extinction of the observer is the It will mean an end and annihilation, for there will be no one left to perceive, speak, describe or explain." - <<From Being to Doing>> Maturana ​ Someone is watching something. Marurana says this is a fundamental starting point. The person develops a world of his own as he sees it as an observer. If the other person exists as an observer, then the other person's world exists, and as an observer, the world that that person sees also exists. ​ The philosopher Nietzsche, before Maturana, described this as perspectives. If the term perspectives is difficult to describe, you can borrow the term from Maturana and call it 'observers. ​ ​ Snakes are creatures of a different world from human...

active reading.

 active reading. We know more about the world than we used to, and you may still think that knowledge is essential to understanding something. But knowledge is no longer as essential for understanding as one-sided thinking. You don't have to 'know' everything about something to 'understand' it. Too much information can actually be an obstacle to understanding something. The present age is overflowing with facts that prevent us from understanding the correct appearance of things due to a lot of information. ​ One of the most active projects of some of the best intellectuals today is to unite views from an intellectual standpoint. Through the Internet, television, radio, and magazines, people are provided with well-organized resources, from clever persuasion to carefully curated information and statistics, to make 'decisions' with little effort. But with effective packaging, viewers, listeners, and readers are sometimes unable to make their own decisions. As i...
