Welkom terug bij Fief's Podcast!Misschien dacht je: hé, waar was die podcast gebleven? Klopt — ik was er even tussenuit.In september begon ik aan mijn boek Stoïcijns Leiderschap — inmiddels afgerond, zoals je misschien weet. Dat schrijven kostte niet alleen tijd, maar ook flink wat denkkracht. En eerlijk: onderweg had ik de Stoïcijnen hard nodig.Soms om moed te vinden, bijvoorbeeld als ik weer een versie moest delen met mijn meelezers (altijd zo'n spannend moment: druk op ‘verzenden' en dan maar afwachten). Soms om wijsheid te bewaren, door niet te blijven hangen in vage feedback maar te vragen naar feiten. En vaak ook om mezelf eraan te herinneren dat dit boek niet voor mij alleen is, maar voor iets groters. Dat hielp me doorzetten en het af te maken.Wat ik tegelijk ontdekte: doelen stellen is meestal niet zo moeilijk. Dat herken ik ook bij de mensen met wie ik werk. De échte worsteling zit in wat er tussendoor gebeurt: twijfels, weerstand, tegenzin. Precies daar bleken de Stoïcijnse principes goud waard. Ik merkte zelf dat wat ik opschreef klopt: het werkt. Als houvast, als drijvende kracht en als stuurmiddel. En geloof me, dat was een opluchting: niks zo pijnlijk als een boek schrijven dat in de praktijk niet klopt.Na dat hele proces had ik behoefte om even pas op de plaats te maken. Om te laten landen wat er allemaal was gebeurd. En om mezelf dezelfde vraag te stellen die ik anderen vaak stel: wat betekent dit nu eigenlijk?Want de kern zit niet in lezen of praten over wat goed is, maar in het dóen. In het toepassen van wat je weet dat klopt.De Stoïcijnen waren er helder over: we maken allemaal deel uit van een groter geheel. Hun filosofie draait dus niet alleen om je eigen rust of kracht, maar om hoe je je verhoudt tot anderen. Wij zijn sociale wezens. We hebben elkaar nodig om overeind te blijven als het lastig wordt.Juist dat was voor mij de aanleiding om dit boek te schrijven. En eerlijk? Ik merkte dat ik die verbinding een beetje kwijt was. Het grote, luide speelveld van social media voelde steeds leger. LinkedIn bijvoorbeeld: veel geroep, vaak meer een wedstrijd om aandacht dan een plek voor echte uitwisseling. En ik betrapte mezelf erop dat ik daar steeds minder zin in had.Terwijl ik geloof dat we elkaar wijzer maken door ervaringen te delen, vragen te stellen en verhalen uit te wisselen — niet door harder te schreeuwen dan de ander.Daarom richt ik me nu weer op wat wél klopt voor mij: deze podcast en mijn nieuwsbrief. Kleiner misschien, maar dichterbij. Voor mij zit daar de waarde: in echte verbinding. Met jou, en met mensen die zoeken naar betekenis en richting. Dat geeft mij energie — en hopelijk jou ook."Dank je wel voor het luisteren! In deze podcast hebben we het over issues waar je als mens maar ook als ondernemer tegen aanloopt, dat weet ik uit eigen ervaring. Als mentor werk ik met ondernemers en zij herkennen de uitdagingen zoals het constante brandjes blussen, het gevoel hebben van 'waar ben ik mee bezig?', en een klagende partner thuis omdat je niet te genieten bent. Terwijl iedereen graag meer vanuit rust, vertrouwen en plezier wil leven en werken. Op een doordeweekse dag gewoon eens 'nee' zegt, zonder schuldgevoel, vertrouwen op de expertise van je medewerkers ipv de dingen zelf te doen, overzicht in je werk hebben ipv van hot naar her rennen, rustig blijven bij gedoe ipv je opwinden, een avond lekker ontspannen ipv op je laptop werken.  Als mentor en psycholoog help ik je graag dit te bereiken.  Neem contact met mij op zodat we kunnen verkennen hoe we jouw ondernemerschap en leven kunnen verbeteren. Zodat je je heerlijk kunt ontspannen, gevoel van richting weer terug hebt en geniet van de mensen om je heen. 

Septembre arrive avec ses promesses de renouveau et ses résolutions de rentrée. Comme moi, vous avez peut-être passé l'été à vous poser des questions métaphysiques et en particulier, parce que pendant l'été on remet les choses en perspectives : c'est quoi une bonne vie ?J'espère que vous avez passé un bel été rempli de soleil, de repos, de rire et de discussions.En ce qui me concerne, j'ai passé la plupart de mon été à travailler…plutôt comique pour une personne qui prône le ralentissement (quoi ? comment ? « contradiction »…oh si peu…).J'ai ralenti certes mais je ne me suis pas arrêté.Vous comprenez que pour moi particulièrement la question reste : c'est quoi, au fond, une bonne vie ?Car voici LE paradoxe de notre époque : nous n'avons jamais eu autant d'outils pour réfléchir au bonheur, autant de livres de développement personnel, autant de podcasts sur l'épanouissement... et pourtant, nous n'avons jamais semblé aussi perdus sur ce qui constitue réellement une vie bien vécue.Commençons par regarder en face ce que notre société considère comme une vie réussie.La recette est simple et universellement acceptée : accumule de l'argent, du pouvoir et de la notoriété.Marie-toi. Fait des enfants. Coche les cases dans le bon ordre. Poste les photos au bon moment sur Instagram. Souris sur LinkedIn quand tu annonces ta promotion et ne parle pas des renoncements liés. Optimise ta vie comme on optimise un algorithme.Bien sûr chacun d'entre vous se dira dans son for intérieur : « non mais je sais que ce n'est pas ça hein…, je ne suis pas stupide » mais essayez d'être sincère avec vous-même 2 minutes quand même et vous verrez que quand vous pensez à Brad Pitt ou Steve Jobs, vous pensez « succès ».Peu importe que le 1er ait été un grand alcoolique et l'autre un monstre humain.Pour écrire cette newsletter, je me suis beaucoup appuyé sur Arthur Brooks, un professeur à Harvard et spécialiste du bonheur.Il identifie deux grandes catégories de chercheurs de bonheur contemporains qu'il appelle - par commodité mais de façon trompeuse (on va y revenir) - les "Épicuriens" et les "Stoïciens" modernes.Les premiers recherchent instinctivement le bonheur dans le plaisir immédiat et la jouissance - quand ça va mal, ils augmentent leur niveau de plaisir (shopping thérapie, vacances de luxe, expériences toujours plus intenses…)C'est ce que l'on fait quand on favorise son « bien vivre » à son « bien être » par exemple en vivant une vie à 4 000 km heure sans même avoir le temps de voir sa vie défiler sous ses yeux.Les seconds se concentrent sur le sens et le but - face à l'adversité, ils cherchent la signification et la raison d'être. Développement personnel, quête spirituelle, engagement militant.Chacun pense être libre mais la réalité pour la majorité d'entre-nous, c'est que nous sommes fortement conditionnés par nos peurs, notre éducation, notre contexte religieux, nos traumas transgénérationnels….je vous renvoie vers la newsletter sur le désir.Ce que Brooks a découvert dans ses recherches, c'est qu'une vie épanouie nécessite un mélange judicieux des deux approches : le plaisir ET le sens. Mais ce mélange, les vrais philosophes antiques l'avaient déjà théorisé il y a plus de 2 000 ans - et de façon bien plus sophistiquée que nos tentatives modernes.Je crois que dans cette période tumultueuse, c'est quand même pas mal de revenir à la philosophie.

In questo articolo affrontiamo un argomento che fa tremare le ginocchia anche agli studenti più coraggiosi: quelle coppie di parole italiane che sembrano gemelli identici ma che in realtà hanno significati e usi molto diversi! Attenzione a Queste Parole Problematiche 1. GIÀ vs ANCORA: La Battaglia del Tempo Iniziamo con una coppia che crea più confusione di un GPS che ha perso il segnale! GIÀ = Azione Completata nel Passato Significato: indica che un'azione è stata completata prima del momento attuale Esempi pratici: "Ho già mangiato" (l'azione del mangiare è finita) "Sei già qui?" (sei arrivato prima di quanto pensassi) "È già finito il film?" (il film è terminato) ANCORA = Continuità o Aspettativa Significato: indica che un'azione continua o non è ancora avvenuta Esempi pratici: "Sto ancora mangiando" (continuo a mangiare) "Non è ancora arrivato" (aspetto che arrivi) "Vuoi ancora del caffè?" (un'altra tazza di caffè) Trucco della nonna: GIÀ = l'azione è finita! ANCORA = l'azione continua o deve ancora succedere! 2. ORMAI vs ORA: Il Presente e la Rassegnazione Questa coppia è subdola come un gatto che finge di dormire! ORMAI = Rassegnazione e Inevitabilità Significato: indica che qualcosa è inevitabile o che non si può più cambiare Tonalità emotiva: spesso con sfumatura di rassegnazione Esempi con contesto: "Ormai è troppo tardi" (non possiamo più cambiare la situazione) "Ormai sei grande" (il tempo è passato, sei cresciuto) "Ormai lo sanno tutti" (la notizia si è diffusa, non si può più nascondere) ORA = Momento Presente Immediato Significato: indica il momento attuale, senza altre sfumature emotive Tonalità: neutro, semplice indicazione temporale Esempi chiari: "Ora devo andare" (in questo momento devo partire) "Che ora è?" (che orario segna l'orologio?) "Ora capisco!" (in questo momento ho compreso) Segreto per ricordare: ORMAI ha sempre una sfumatura di "non si può più tornare indietro", mentre ORA è neutro, indica solo il presente. 3. PRESTO vs PRONTO: La Velocità e la Preparazione Attenzione: questa coppia può creare malintesi epici, soprattutto se la tua prima lingua è lo spagnolo. PRESTO = Tempo e Velocità Significato: indica velocità di azione o un momento futuro vicino Si usa per: tempo, velocità, orari Esempi dettagliati: "Arrivo presto" (arrivo in poco tempo / arrivo la mattina presto) "Corri più presto!" (aumenta la velocità) "A presto!" (ci vediamo tra poco tempo) "È ancora presto" (l'orario è mattutino) PRONTO = Stato di Preparazione Significato: indica che qualcosa o qualcuno è preparato, completato Si usa per: preparazione, disponibilità Esempi con spiegazione: "Sono pronto per partire" (ho finito di prepararmi) "La cena è pronta" (la cena è stata preparata) "Pronto?" (risposta al telefono - "sono qui ad ascoltare") "Pronto soccorso" (servizio sempre preparato per l'emergenza) Approfondimento culturale: "Pronto" al telefono è una particolarità italiana! In altri Paesi si risponde diversamente, ma noi italiani chiediamo sempre se l'altro è "pronto" ad ascoltare. Che gentili che siamo! 4. NON ANCORA vs NON PIÙ: Il Tempo che Cambia Direzione Questa è la coppia che manda in crisi esistenziale anche i madrelingua! NON ANCORA = Aspettativa Non Realizzata Significato: qualcosa che dovrebbe succedere ma non è ancora successo Direzione temporale: dal presente verso il futuro Esempi con aspettative: "Non ho ancora finito" (devo ancora completare) "Non è ancora ora" (dobbiamo aspettare) "Non ho ancora capito" (spero di capire presto) "Non ha ancora chiamato" (mi aspetto che chiami) NON PIÙ = Interruzione di una Continuità Significato completo: NON PIÙ indica l'interruzione di un'abitudine, di una situazione o di un'azione ricorrente,

Solidarność to opowieść o wolności i wspólnocie, nie o jednym człowieku – mówi Bronisław Wildstein, krytykując mit Wałęsy i sposób, w jaki III RP odsunęła w cień etos sierpnia 1980.Bronisław Wildstein, publicysta, dziennikarz, pisarz w Poranku Radia Wnet podkreślił, że ruch Solidarności był wydarzeniem bez precedensu w historii Polski i Europy – obywatelskim przebudzeniem, które doprowadziło do upadku komunizmu.Ten prawdziwy mit, wyrastający z niezwykłego ruchu Solidarności, warto pielęgnować, bo opiera się na prawdzie. A obok niego mamy inny mit – ten, który usiłuje kreować Lech Wałęsa i jego zwolennicy– zaznaczył.Walka o pamięćWildstein ostrzegł przed fałszowaniem historii poprzez kreowanie legendy Lecha Wałęsy.To mit, że Wałęsa stworzył Solidarność, że ją powołał do życia, że to on pokonał komunizm. Opowieść, w której Lech Wałęsa przesłania Solidarność. To niezwykle znaczące, bo debata o Solidarności to nie tylko rozmowa o historii, ale także o Polsce, o polskiej tożsamości i o współczesności– mówił. Jak dodał, Wałęsa posiadał ogromną charyzmę i potrafił wejść w rolę lidera, ale jego determinacja i decyzje do dziś budzą poważne wątpliwości.Układ z komunistamiZdaniem publicysty, dramat Solidarności polegał na tym, że po 1989 roku część jej elit zawarła kompromis z dawną komunistyczną nomenklaturą.III RP została zbudowana na zwłokach Solidarności. To ostre sformułowanie, ale trafne. Po porozumieniach Okrągłego Stołu część elit solidarnościowych dogadała się z dawną nomenklaturą i zaczęła budować III RP. Zmieniono język – zamiast mówić o niepodległości, wolności, wspólnocie, zaczęto mówić o transformacji, modernizacji, europeizacji– ocenił.

#387 - Lorenzo ZL'altra sera ho sentito mio figlio Ludovico, che mi ha detto: Papà ti posso mettere in contatto con un amico di Matteo che è li a Samui e che ha bisogno di alcuni consigli e indicazioni?Ovviamente gli ho detto si - digli di mettersi in contatto con me su Whatsapp o Telegram - e sarà un piacere dargli una mano.Fatto sta che dopo un paio di ore ho visto una notifica di Telegram che un tale Lorenzo Zimonti era su Telegram. Questo nome non mi suonava nuovo. Comunque senza rifletterci su nemmeno un secondo ho fatto 1+1, e mi sono detto "questo deve essere l'amico di Ludovico che sta qua a Samui”Gli ho mandato quindi subito una foto e un messaggio Welcome to Samui…Che sorpresa!E lui mi risponde:“Aoo bello, che se dice?”“qua tutto bene e tu? M'hanno detto che stai dal lato della perdizione (Lamai, Chaweng)... quanto te fermi?”e lui mi risponde: “Sto cercando di capire come funziona Telegram”Poi il silenzio.Nessun messaggio. Nessun aggiornamento, nessun “allora sono qua, fino al… e sto cercando…”Zero.All'indomani zero.Aspetto mezzogiorno, l'una, e gli scrivo: “Ci sei riuscito?”“Mica tanto….” mi risponde..Scopri com'è andata a finire ascoltando l'intero podcast._______________Info Utili• Sostieni questo podcast:Entra in contatto con me, ottieni feedback, ricevi consigli sul tuo progetto onlinehttps://Patreon.com/Robin_Good•  Musica di questa puntata:"Garoto" by Birocratic disponibile su Bandcamp•  Nella foto di copertina:Lorenzo Z.

Nekateri so jo oklicali kar za kugo 21. stoletja. Pogovor z enim od najvidnejših slovenskih raziskovalcev sladkorne bolezni dr. Andražem Stožerjem.Svetovna zdravstvena organizacija opozarja, da po svetu že več kot 800 milijonov ljudi trpi zaradi sladkorne bolezni, ki je že zdavnaj dosegla epidemične razsežnosti. Zdravnik, predavatelj in raziskovalec prof. dr. Andraž Stožer v tokratni oddaji Glasovi svetov navkljub temu optimistično pravi, da je sladkorna bolezen obvladljiva ali celo ozdravljiva. Z raziskovalno skupino, ki jo vodi na Inštitutu za fiziologijo Medicinske fakultete v Mariboru, se pridružuje tistim strokovnjakom, ki želijo diabetes spoznati in ustaviti že v trebušni slinavki. Kako dr. Stožer vidi razvoj zdravil za sladkorno bolezen; od inzulina do učinkovitega in popularnega semaglutida?

»Včasih se človek odloči za slabšo možnost, kar postane tudi izkušnja. Človek je tu s svojo duhovno zmožnostjo kakor krmar ladje, ki nenehno popravlja njeno smer, dokler varno ne pristane na cilju. Nečesa pa človek ne more. Ne biti človek.« Tako je v knjigi »Sto domačih zdravil za dušo in telo« zapisal dr. Jože Ramovš. Iz knjige smo za oddajo prebrali nekaj izbranih odlomkov.

Letos mineva 110 let od trenutka, ko so na obrežju smaragdne Soče prvič zagrmele topovske salve in se je začelo eno najtežjih poglavij prve svetovne vojne – soška fronta. Enajst ofenziv, več sto tisoč padlih vojakov in neizmerno trpljenje domačega prebivalstva so zaznamovali dolino, gore in ljudi. Ob obletnici je Kobariški muzej v sodelovanju z domačini in šolarji med drugim pripravlil razstavo mladih ustvarjalk in ustvarjalcev, ki zrisbo in barvo pripovedujejo zgodbo svojih prababic in pradedov.To ni le zgodovina na slikah in zemljevidih, temveč spomin, ki ga nosimo še danes. V oddaji vas bomo popeljali od tistega usodnega maja 1915, skozi največjo in prelomno – dvanajsto bitko pri Kobaridu, do današnjega dne, ko se spomin prepleta z željo po miru. Sto deset let pozneje nas soška fronta in Kobariški muzej še vedno učita: vojna pušča rane, mir pa gradijo ljudje. Tokratno Nedeljsko reportažo pripravlja Miha Žorž.

Sutkinja zagrebačkog prekršajnog suda presudila; mladić koji je u televizijskom prijenosu uzviknuo 'Za dom spremni' – nije širio mržnju, nije narušavao javni red. Splićani i dalje prosvjeduju; traže hitno isplovljavanje talijanskog broda s azbestom. Stočari su najavili moguće prosvjede protiv ministra poljoprivrede.

Zvečer bodo prve tekme zadnjega kroga kvalifikacij za uvrstitev v konferenčno ligo v nogometu. Za evropsko jesen se bosta borila tudi dva slovenska predstavnika. Celje bo gostilo Banik iz Ostrave, Olimpija se bo v Stožicah pomerila z moštvom Noah iz Armenije.

Vrnili smo se z dopustov in se spet posvetili svojemu življenjskemu poslanstvu, čvekanju o Olimpiji. V tokratni epizodi smo obdelali vse, kar se je zgodilo v zadnjih dveh tednih in se nato ozrli proti četrtkovi tekmi proti armenskemu nasprotniku Noah, ki prihaja v Stožice. Upamo, da se bodo igralci Olimpije zagnala v tekmece kot mladi gamsi.

Slovenska košarkarska reprezentanca končuje priprave na evropsko prvenstvo. Sinoči se je v Stožicah na tekmi proti reprezentanci Velike Britanije še zadnjič predstavila domačemu občinstvu. Pred odhodom na Poljsko, kjer bo Slovenija igrala skupinski del turnirja stare celine, jo jutri čaka še tekma proti Srbiji v Beogradu.

[Redif du 2/12/24] La vertu, les passions et la rhétorique sont au cœur de la philosophie politique antique. Ces notions, essentielles à la pensée des grands auteurs tels que Platon, Aristote, les Stoïciens, Cicéron et Augustin, éclairent la manière dont la cité peut être gouvernée et les décisions démocratiques façonnées. La quête de l'excellence de l'âme et la gestion des mouvements non-rationnels qui animent les individus étaient alors perçues comme des clés pour bâtir une société harmonieuse. Comment ces philosophes concevaient-ils le lien entre la vertu et le politique ? Quel rôle attribuaient-ils aux passions dans la vie collective ? Et comment la rhétorique, cet art de persuader, pouvait-elle renforcer ou diminuer la rationalité des décisions démocratiques ? Pour répondre à ces questions, nous avons eu le plaisir de recevoir René de Nicolay, professeur invité aux Facultés Loyola Paris. Avec finesse et pédagogie, il nous guide à travers les grands enjeux de la pensée politique antique et leur pertinence dans notre monde contemporain. Entretien réalisé par Parnel LedagaDoctorant en philosophie aux Facultés Loyola ParisHébergé par Ausha.

Iniziare a studiare l'italiano è come aprire la porta a un mondo ricco di cultura, storia e bellezza. Se sei uno studente straniero che ha appena iniziato questo percorso, sappi che stai intraprendendo un'avventura straordinaria che ti cambierà per sempre. L'italiano non è solo una lingua: è musica, arte, passione e tradizione millenaria. Un viaggio completo, che la mia amica Diana ha intrapreso e condiviso con noi. Cominciare a Studiare Italiano Oggi Perché l'Italiano Ti Cambierà la Vita Imparare l'italiano significa entrare in contatto con una delle culture più influenti del mondo. Quando pronuncerai le tue prime parole in italiano, non starai solo comunicando: starai abbracciando la stessa lingua che ha dato voce a Dante, Leonardo da Vinci, Federico Fellini e milioni di persone che hanno reso l'Italia famosa per la sua creatività e il suo calore umano. La lingua italiana ti aprirà porte che nemmeno immaginavi esistessero. Potrai comprendere l'opera lirica nella sua forma originale, assaporare la vera essenza della cucina italiana leggendo ricette autentiche, e soprattutto, potrai connetterti con oltre 65 milioni di madrelingua italiani e altri milioni di persone che, come te, hanno scelto di imparare questa bellissima lingua. Le Prime Espressioni che Ti Faranno Sentire Italiano Ecco alcune espressioni fondamentali che ti aiuteranno a sentirti subito parte della comunità italiana. Ogni volta che le userai, noterai come gli italiani ti accoglieranno con un sorriso più caloroso: "Prego" - Questa piccola parola magica significa "prego", "di niente" e "si accomodi" allo stesso tempo. È il passepartout della cortesia italiana. Esempio: quando qualcuno ti ringrazia, rispondi semplicemente "Prego!" e vedrai l'effetto. "Mi scusi" - Per chiedere scusa o attirare l'attenzione educatamente. Esempio: "Mi scusi, dove si trova la stazione?" ti aprirà molte conversazioni utili. "Che bello!" - L'espressione dell'ammirazione italiana per eccellenza. Gli italiani la usano per tutto ciò che li colpisce positivamente. Esempio: davanti a un tramonto, a un piatto delizioso o a una storia interessante, un sincero "Che bello!" ti farà sembrare già un vero italiano. "Non c'è problema" - L'atteggiamento rilassato e accogliente tipicamente italiano. Quando qualcuno si scusa o sembra preoccupato, questa frase dissolve ogni tensione. Frasi di Sopravvivenza per le Prime Settimane Queste frasi essenziali ti salveranno in moltissime situazioni quotidiane e ti daranno la fiducia necessaria per iniziare a comunicare da subito: "Sto imparando l'italiano" - Questa frase è il tuo superpotere! Gli italiani adorano chi sta imparando la loro lingua e diventeranno immediatamente i tuoi migliori insegnanti. Preparati a ricevere incoraggiamenti, consigli e molta pazienza. "Può ripetere, per favore?" - Non aver mai paura di chiedere di ripetere. Gli italiani apprezzeranno il tuo sforzo di capire e parleranno più lentamente per aiutarti. "Come si dice... in italiano?" - Questa domanda trasformerà ogni conversazione in una lezione di italiano gratuita. Gli italiani sono orgogliosi della loro lingua e saranno felici di insegnartela. "Grazie mille!" - Più enfatico di un semplice "grazie", questa espressione mostra il tuo entusiasmo e la tua gratitudine in modo tipicamente italiano. Espressioni che Mostrano la Tua Passione per l'Italia Queste espressioni più avanzate ti permetteranno di dimostrare il tuo vero interesse per la cultura italiana e creeranno connessioni più profonde con le persone che incontri: "Mi piace molto l'Italia" - Semplice ma efficace. Questa frase aprirà conversazioni sulla cultura, sui luoghi da visitare e sulle tradizioni locali. "La cucina italiana è fantastica" - Un complimento che non fallisce mai! Preparati a ricevere inviti a cena e ricette di famiglia tramandate da generazioni. "Che bella lingua!" - Quando esprimi ammirazione per l'italiano stesso,

From time to time over the nearly 50 years since the establishment of the Atlanta Soto Zen Center, a significant number of its members and its affiliates in the Silent Thunder Order have complained of burning out in terms of their participation in the Zen community. Some have faded into obscurity and were never heard from again. Others have come back after years. The record for the longest hiatus is about three decades. This cohort would amount to a small percentage of the total attendance, or course, but it has been noted that more people come and go than stay. Matsuoka-roshi used to say, of some disciple that was no longer showing up, "Come-and-go type" or, "Wishy-washy type." I assume that these lost souls continue to practice in some form or other, hopefully maintaining their practice of meditation at least. And they probably retain an interest in reading about Zen and Buddhism. And I think it fair to say that if they had stayed, instead of moving on, we would have no place for most of them to sit. This is why I refer to the Zen sangha — and it is probably true of all communities — that it is like a cloud, constantly evaporating and recondensing, with new molecules of water, over time. People have real lives, other demands on their time and energy, and they always have. Master Dogen pointed out that the famous places in China were not typically comprised of large groups, but a small core of a half-dozen monks or so, with others coming and going from time to time. A cursory reading of the history of the formal transmission in Soto Zen makes this clear. Many of these encounters were short-term. So I don't worry too much about the many former members who are no longer in attendance. I do reach out from time to time if someone has suddenly disappeared who was diligently engaging on a frequent basis for some time, out of curiosity if nothing else. But I have enough to worry about, dealing with those who are presently practicing, as well as the constant flow of newcomers knocking at our doors. Most newcomers report that their first exposure to Zen is through reading — or, nowadays, listening — to a well-known teacher online, such as Thich Nhat Hahn, or Ram Dass. I had the pleasure of meeting Ram Dass in person in the 1960s, when I was teaching at the School of the Art Institute and the University of Illinois at Chicago Circle campus. Some friends of mine who knew him told me he was travelling through the area, so I asked them to connect us, and invited him to speak to one of my classes at the U of I. I still have the 1/4-inch reel-to-reel audiotape somewhere of his talk, which was his classic trip to India, giving LSD to the guru tale. I plan to have it digitized so that those who are interested can listen to it. Not to be too much of a name-dropper — near to greatness, and all that — but he came to our apartment for dinner that evening and cooked chipatis and beans for us. My friends told me later that he had told them he thought I was one of the most spiritual people he had ever met. That may have been because my apartment was full of student work, models of geometric structure studies they had done in one of my design classes.Another factoid of interest, and one of those coincidences that we say are not in Zen — he was driving a Chrysler Airstream at that time, and several years earlier, before I had graduated from the Institute of Design, my best friend at that time and I attended a talk by Claes Oldenburg, the famous Swedish-American sculptor, at the University of Chicago, at which presentation, amongst other things, we saw his life-size soft sculpture of — you guessed it — a Chrysler Airstream. But I digress. I have never heard of anyone burning out from too much study of the dharma, or too much sitting in meditation, although some naturally grow tired of too much group discussion, especially when it slides down the slippery slope of intellectualism and erudition, as has been seen many times in the history of Zen. Ch'an Master Huineng famously made a public show of burning scrolls of sutras to make this point. Dogen held that both things can be true at the same time — that the written record also contains the dharma, even though subject to the limitations of language. No, usually, problems with burnout arise in the context of serving the Zen community. Community, or sangha, is the third leg of the stool of Buddhism, joining that of dharma, the study of the teachings of Buddhism and Zen; and most centrally, buddha, the practice of zazen, or the meditation of Buddha. This is what Zen claims to transmit. Where the rubber hits the road in terms of burnout is usually in an individual's efforts to serve the sangha in ways that demand what seems to them to be a lot of time, effort, and energy, with all the opportunity costs associated with any form of contributions of one's precious time to any cause. The third rail for most or all not-for-profit enterprises such as ASZC seems to consist in serving on the board of directors. What I refer to as the "substitution effect" begins to set in — one finds oneself sitting less and less over time, the limited bandwidth available for Zen being consumed more and more by the ever-evolving demands of raising money and paying the bills; upkeep, repair and maintenance of the facility; producing and publishing online communications, newsletters, bulletins and podcasts; and, finally, the sheer pressure of administrating a robust schedule of programs of dharma study and meditation, serving a shape-shifting and ever-growing community of practitioners. As one who has been immersed in this process for going on 50 years -— ASZC was incorporated in 1977 — I am very familiar with this syndrome of overcommitting, on a personal level. But I think it may be that we are getting it backward if and when we do burn out in service to the sangha. It is easy to lose track of the central focus of Zen. The three legs of the stool are not equal in importance or effectiveness in supporting our personal practice. Buddha practice, Zen meditation, or zazen, is definitely first and foremost. Dharma, or study of the teachings, comes second and is subordinate to zazen. Without zazen there is little hope of ever comprehending buddha-dharma. Sangha, community participation and service, is a distant third, and is not really necessary, or conducive to personal practice, absent meditation and study. When we get this backward is when we tend to burn out. If I had not been continuing my meditation practice over the 60 years I have been engaged in all three dimensions, from the mid-1960s at the Zen Buddhist Temple of Chicago, through the years of establishing ASZC in Atlanta, I would have burnt out long ago. Attending most of the public sessions of meditation and witnessing the evolution of the Zen lives of hundreds of individuals have reinvigorated my zeal for Zen again and again, especially during the difficult times we have endured. The evidence of my senses has convinced me ever more undoubtedly of the value and effectiveness of Zen as the Upaya, or skillful means, for our times, as Matsuoka-roshi believed. If you have found yourself experiencing burnout, please consider whether or not you see yourself in this picture. If you do your best to attend a reasonable number of our scheduled meditation programs including daily, weekly, monthly and annual opportunities, such as day sits (zazenkai), longer retreats (sesshin), classes and workshops, you will rediscover the renewable resource that is genuine Zen practice. If you have gotten entangled in the ASZC or STO administration or other demanding roles of service to the sangha, please understand that your efforts are very much appreciated, but that you may be inadvertently developing the substitution effect syndrome, which ultimately does not bode well either for your practice, or the wellbeing of the community. If you relinquish your position and function, no worries, someone else will step up. I have witnessed this again and again. There is no way to plan for, or to design around, human nature, so please do not blame the corporate entity that is the Zen community for your unhappiness. If instead you renew and reinvigorate your practice of meditation, both at home and at the Zen center, you may begin to see that the burden you are or were carrying on behalf of your fellow travelers on the Zen raft was not so onerous, after all. And that somehow, willy-nilly, what you may have seen as your vital function within the Zen community will be taken up by others. If you do not claim your place on the cushion, you may miss the point of practice altogether. Which would be a "cry and shame" as Albert the Alligator would say. And I know that dates me. Look up "Pogo the Possum" by Walt Kelly. Let me propose in closing that you apply a tried-and-true time management approach to your Zen practice. There are only 24 hours in a day, as we say, so unless we chuck it all and go join a monastery, or become a hermit, only a small fraction of those hours can be devoted specifically to our practice, as we conceive it. So let's say you create the visual of a classic clock face representing your 24-hour day. After filling in all the many other things you do to get you through the night, such as sleeping, and through the demands of your day, such as paying the rent, take a look at how much time is left over. For the sake of argument, let's say you can free up an hour a day, or maybe two. In that time, maybe an hour in the morning, and an hour in the evening, maybe more of a weekend, you commit 50% to Buddha Practice: time on the cushion; 30% to Dharma Study: reading up on the literature and joining online dialogs; that leaves 20% for Sangha Service: helping out at the center, or attending admin meetings. The very exercise of visualizing — and tracking — your time may reveal that you are not actually spending as much as you think you are, or at least allow you to cut it down to a bearable amount. The main thing it may help you do is to put the emphasis where is should be: on meditation. If you are attending zazen regularly you are already doing the most you can do to support your community. Your presence encourages them in their practice more directly and to a greater degree than financial and in-kind contributions. Although those are very important. If you join the dharma dialogs online or in person on Sunday mornings and occasionally make a contribution to the conversation, that is also a service to the sangha. It indicates your sincere interest in clarifying the Great Matter, which is the main and central purpose of the pursuit of Zen. If you do both the above and still have time to devote to supporting the programs and physical plant of the Zen center, more power to you. But please be careful not to let the tail wag the Zen dog. There is a story from the history in China, if memory serves, that illustrates this principle clearly. A monk complained that during meditation, the rain was leaking in on him through the thatched roof. The Master's response? "Move down." Why spend a great deal of time and effort patching a roof, maintaining a building, if it prevents you from sitting in zazen? The building, the corporate entity, and all other dimensions of the Zen community and its physical manifestation in the world are subject to the three marks of dukkha. They are impermanent in the long run, imperfect in their current variation, and inherently insubstantial in comparison to the effects of zazen on your consciousness. To quote the venerable Ch'an Master Sekito Kisen, from the closing line of his short but dense poem, Sandokai—Harmony of Difference and Equality: I respectfully urge you who study the mysterydo not pass your days and nights in vain

Di consultazione in consultazione si riduce il numero degli italiani che votano. Qual è l'origine di questa disaffezione? Quali sono le implicazioni? E come si può invertire la tendenza? Giorgio Gaber cantava che "libertà è partecipazione". Ma se manca la voglia di partecipare, che ne è della libertà? Ci riflettiamo con Luca Raffini, professore di Sociologia dei Fenomeni Politici al Dipartimento di scienze politiche e internazionali dell'Università di Genova. Federica Sciabetta, presidente della cooperativa sociale CE.STO che ha creato e che gestisce Giardini Luzzati Spazio Comune a Genova. Chiara Saraceno, sociologa. E Oxfam, organizzazione non profit che si dedicano alla riduzione della povertà globale.

The Teacher and the Preacher is a weekly radio program--hosted by Dave McGarrah, Senior Pastor at Deer Flat Church in Caldwell, Idaho, and Aaron Lipkin from Israel--that airs each Sunday at 10:30 am and 7:30 pm here on 94.1 The Voice KBXL and also on Sunday evenings at 5 pm on our sister station 790 KSPD. They are a unique phenomenon on the airwaves – a Christian and a Jew in an ongoing dialogue – celebrating the many commonalities but never shying away from the differences. They offer their listeners insights into each other's faiths that don't come up much elsewhere, that can only come through sincere conversation. The weekly discussion is more than a program about a topic; it's a demonstration of how God can bring two people together from 9,000 miles away to bridge the differences, learn from each other, and strengthen their own faiths. If you would like to learn more about this fantastic radio ministry, please visit their website at theteacherandthepreacher.com.Podcast Website: https://941thevoice.com/podcasts/the-teacher-and-the-preacher/

La terza parte della storia di Orsola De Marco, l'astrofisica con la passione per la storia e la navigazione. "Sto facendo realizzare una copia della giacca del mio eroe, l'ammiraglio Nelson".

In this third installment of my "DharmaByte" column and "UnMind" podcast, exploring the general subject of Zen in our Times, we turn to the last of three suggested topics from Hokai Jeff Harper, Halifax-based publisher of the STO newsletter: • To everything there is a season• The wax and wane of householder zazen practice• What we are feeling right now IS impermanence manifesting itself Hokai somehow managed, perhaps unintentionally, to progressively home in on the central experience of Zen on three levels. Starting with the most universal sphere of our experience on Earth, the seasonality that is an effect of orbiting the sun for approximately 365 rotations of the planet; then down to the social sphere of our practice as householders; and finally into the realm of the intimate, up-close-and-personal sphere of consciousness itself. What I call the "singularity of Zen." As I mentioned in the last segment, we often seem to labor under a misconception that because we follow the lifestyle of householders, we cannot hope to penetrate to the fundamental meaning of the teachings of Buddhism. But Hokai's assertion puts the lie to this assumption. If the Dharma is simply pointing at the present reality that we are experiencing, lifestyle choices cannot possibly have a determinative or dispositive, causal relationship in terms of coming to realization of our buddha mind. What we are feeling now is impermanence manifesting itself, to quote the above quote. Not only what we are feeling now, but what we are seeing and hearing, smelling and tasting, as well as what we are thinking. Or reading, if you are reading this rather than listening to the podcast version. You might quibble with Hokai's construction - "impermanence manifesting itself" - as it suggests that "impermanence" is some sort of independent force capable of manifesting itself, rather than an attribute of the changing nature of the universe. But let's not let mere semantics distract from the message. We are witnessing the "endless, unremitting, unnamable, unthinkable buddha-dharma," as Master Dogen expressed it; and we bear witness to IT mainly through the dynamic of change, or impermanence. Otherwise, we would not register seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, touching, or even thinking, at all. If nothing were changing, there could be no awareness of it. As I mentioned in the segment on householder practice, renunciation in Zen is a matter of seeing through the delusional aspect of living, not a matter of lifestyle. Discernment in Zen is like Sri Ramakrishna's analogy that, like a swan, we need to be able to drink milk mixed with water, and drink only the milk. Or as Master Tozan analogized: A silver bowl filled with snow A heron hidden in the moonTaken as similar, they are not the sameNot distinguished, their places are known So this refined awareness of the nondual nature of reality, termed "emptiness," as opposed to "form" or appearance, is so close to ordinary reality, or perceptual duality, that it is nearly indistinguishable — like white snow in a silver bowl, or a white heron and the full moon — white on white. Buddha taught that the discriminating mind imposes a "false stillness" on reality, tamping down the uninhibited flow of sensory data to a dull roar. This enables us to maintain our balance and negotiate a dynamic, 4-dimensional spacetime environment.This is part of the natural process of "individuation" that sets in once we are born, and culminates in the conception of the independent self, which is a fundamental category error, according to Buddhism. The original alienation that is our fall from grace. It is not that Buddhism claims there is no self whatever. There is a constructed self, and there is a true self, according to this model. The prevalent perception of separation as an incarnated being is not entirely delusional. But it is incomplete — reification of a separate self ignores the rest of the story, the fact that all beings are interconnected, co-arisen and co-dependent. The Twelvefold Chain of Interdependent Arising, attributed to Shakyamuni, parses this coming-of-age story, slicing and dicing stages of development finely, like an Italian chef shaving garlic with a razorblade. This is similar to Master Dogen's fine discernment of reality — from a perspective uniting space, or existence, and time — as articulated in Uji—Being-Time, explored in some detail in a prior podcast. What he referred to as the "fine mind of Nirvana," or the "subtle mind of Nirvana." Master Sengcan, third Chinese patriarch after Bodhidharma and his successor Huike, points to something similar in Hsinhsinming—Trust in Mind: In this world of Suchness there is neither self nor other-than-selfTo come into harmony with this realityJust simply say when doubt arises: "not two"In this "not two" nothing is separate nothing is excludedNo matter when or where Enlightenment means entering this truthAnd this truth is beyond extension or diminution in time or spaceIn it a single thought is ten thousand years Believing in the fundamental bifurcation of consciousness into self-and-other, body versus mind — the "Cartesian error" — is resolved in realizing that "you can't have one without the other," or as the more contemporary trope would have it, "both things can be true at the same time." "Neither-self-nor-other-than-self" indicates the True Self of Buddhism, undivided from the very beginning. "Not-two" is the mantra we conjure whenever any doubt about this arises. At the risk of repeating myself — with the caveat that these teachings bear repetition, especially in changing contexts — the last stanza returns us to the singularity of Zen: No matter when or whereEnlightenment means entering this truthAnd this truth is beyond extension or diminution in time or spaceIn it a single thought is ten thousand years The last line of which Matsuoka-roshi would encapsulate as "The eternal moment." So it all comes down to this. Like a fish-trap, reality ensnares us in its wide reach, and as we pursue our own realization — which, after all, is, or should be, our birthright — we find the trap narrowing again and again, until there is no escape, no turning back; like the exhausted swimmer at the halfway point, it is just as far, and equally risky, to try to make it back safely to shore as it is to continue swimming to the island. If we persevere, finally finding ourselves on the "other shore," we can see clearly that we have been seeing things all wrong, all along. There never has been a separate self to embody, let alone to defend against all comers, let alone any existential annihilation. In the not-two nonduality of Zen's reality, it was all like a bad dream, one that we essentially made up — with a little help from our friends and family, of course, not to mention the entire world of benighted people who fear death and, consequently, life. This is not to insist that everyone else is wrong about everything, and that only I and my like-minded friends from the enchanted land of Zen have the inside track. In one sense, it must be true that everyone has a hunch about this — an inkling that something is missing — and that that something is worth knowing. Otherwise we would probably all commit mass suicide, in despair. Which is exactly what it looks like we are doing, with an assist from the stewards, elected or not, of our commonweal. Can anyone say "lemmings"? But Buddhism never seemed to show much concern about the survival of the species. Celibacy is the quickest way to bring down the curtain on humanity - simply not giving birth to the next generation. Of course, the coterie of those who abjure bearing children is not likely to ever encompass a majority of the population, so that kind of extinction is not going to happen. No, it is more likely that Mother Nature's balancing act will bring about the demise of humanity owing to our disruption of her sphere of influence, so carefully nurtured to bring the miracle of life to the planet in the first place, as the goddess Gaia: In Greek mythology, Gaia is the personification of the Earth and a primordial goddess, one of the first deities to emerge from Chaos. She is often referred to as Mother Earth and is considered the mother of all life. And life itself is "fleeting as an arrow" according to Buddha. What we are feeling in the present is this fleeting moment, our life passing before our very eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind in a vast network of frequencies in polyrhythmic synchrony. Our heartbeat is our metronome, the rise and fall of the breathing our connection to the thin atmospheric blanket embracing the earth. On a personal basis, there is no time to waste in foolish pursuits, as the sage Jianzhi Sengcan reminds us in Hsinhsinming: Waste no time in doubts and arguments that have nothing to do with this A century later, Master Sekito Kisen says it another way, in Sandokai: I respectfully urge you who study the Mysterydo not pass your days and nights in vain So Hokai does us a great service to remind us of the evanescence of spacetime in the personal realm, embedded in our social context as householders, surrounded by the world of Nature both nurturing and threatening us, finally floating in the constancy of the universal. Let Tozan Ryokai have the last word on it, after yet another century, from his Hokyo Zammai: Within causes and conditions time and season it is serene and illuminating
So minute it enters where there is no gap so vast it transcends dimensionA hairsbreadth deviation and you are out of tune It seems that all three of the great Ch'an masters are speaking with one voice, urging us to pay attention. There is not so much to their Buddhism after all, as one sage commented upon the occasion of his insight. So Hokai's assertion that what we are feeling right now IS impermanence manifesting itself is subject to Master Dogen's repeat comment: "All things are like this." Not only what we are feeling right now — but what we are seeing and hearing, smelling and tasting and yes, even what we are thinking right now — is, in one sense, impermanence. It is not only in front of your face, it is also behind your face, penetrating your hearing with no boundary, in and out through your nose and mouth (and other orifices), and enveloping your body outside and inside, clean and clear through your original mind. Tozan says, with stunning nonchalance, earlier in the poem: You are not IT — but in truth IT is you Buddha is attributed with saying something like — that there is impermanence means that there is permanence. And his followers were overjoyed to hear that. What made them so happy? Again recalling Hsinhsinming—Trust in Mind: Change appearing to occur in the empty world we call real —only because of our ignorance So the nondual version of this insight is that IT is both changing and staying the same at the same time. This should bring about a great sigh of relief in all who realize it.

It's cold, the markets are weird, and the boys are back. Cameron and Tony kick things off with oil-patch whiplash, Iran–Israel theatre, and Trump's “Mission Accomplished 2.0” tweet-storms. Portfolio numbers, confession-season land-mines, and sudden 30 % face-plants (looking at you, **AMI**) follow. Tony spotlights surprise winners (**OML**, **SHA**, **SRG**, **GNG**) and takeover bait (**STO**, **THL**), while ASX cops an ASIC probe for dropping the tech ball. Virgin's second-shot IPO, Karoon's Brazilian land-grab, and a pulled-pork deep dive on **COG** round out the finance. After hours: jazz-piano Goldblum, Kelly's Heroes, and Peter Ellyard's octogenarian optimism. 

Niezmiennie od 1959 r. w Łazienkach w letnie niedziele usłyszeć można utwory Fryderyka Chopina. O długiej historii koncertów i tegorocznym programie rozmawiamy z Andrzejem Matusiakiem ze Stołecznej Estrady.

Interiezioni - Spendieren Sie einen Cafè (1€)?

Parola difficle, ma non vi spaventate perché queste parole non hanno una vera e propria traduzione nelle altre lingue, non seguono regole e si usano perlopiù nella lingua parlata, senza avere alcun legame con le altre parti della frase.Sto parlando di suoni come: mah, be', boh, to'... Queste parole esprimono degli stati d'animo, delle sensazioni, il modo in cui una persona si sente in un determinato momento. È praticamente una reazione improvvisa che può essere di gioia, di dolore, un saluto, un ordine e così via. Si usano nella conversazione e meno nella lingua scritta.Ci sono vari tipi di interiezioni e la lingua italiana le distingue in interiezioni proprie, improprie e locuzioni interiettive....- The full transcript of this Episode is available via "Luisa's learn Italian Premium", Premium is no subscription and does not incur any recurring fees.
