Pain is what I raise,

 Pain is what I raise,

​


Pain is what I nurture. Avoid the second arrow!!


​


"No one can escape an arrow as long as he lives. But the emotional pain it causes is up to us."



Loss and failures, disasters, trials, sufferings...


It is an essential part of life that accompanies the lives of all who live in the world.


It happens to everyone, but everyone has a different way of accepting it.



The first arrow that flew towards me was an event that actually happened.


The second arrow is the emotional response of the individual interpreting the event.


Every time we get hit by the first arrow, we immediately start shooting a second arrow at ourselves.


​


Most of the pain is aggravated by the emotional response to the actual event rather than the event itself.


Pushing one's own life into the abyss is the second arrow I have shot at me.


​

"When you get hit with an arrow, feel the pain, but don't exaggerate the pain."


- pour




The ordeal that flew to me should be seen only as much as the appearance of the ordeal.


Helplessness, despair, sadness, melancholy...


My second arrow, shot at random in a small ordeal, is called a snowball of pain.


The pain eventually grows because of me.




Create a gap between the first and second arrows to make them aware that they are necessary.


If the arrow has already been shot, pull it out firmly.

​


"Forgiveness is not about freeing the person who hurt you. It is about setting yourself free from resentment, anger and hatred towards that person."


- Kalu Rinpoche



It requires a strong will not to sacrifice one's life for external affairs.



Will I shoot myself a second arrow?

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...
