  1. @Viking as i understand it, the body is also external in that sense. and the individual is absolutely dependent on physical reality. even belief. so it‘s a matter of the turning point. if you belief in oneness there is no difference between internal external matter and energy. but in existentialism there is. it‘s only external.
  2. @Viking you have to read sartre then... wikipedia sometimes doesn’t get it right. at least the english interpretation here.
  3. @Viking no, existentialism says at least as i understand it, there is only external conditions. at least i got it right - you might be interested in philosophy
  4. @Viking yes partly... maybe not, maybe we can know things and experience them without having experiences before. so for me that would do the trick. existentialism is basically a materialistic worldview. so in a wider sense it would still be existentialism - but it‘s a matter of definition and floating boarders.
  5. @Viking those are classical existentialistic approaches to a worldview. it‘s not my place to answer that.
  6. @Viking sorry i edited. if you don‘t know anything else, doesn’t make you that an existentialist? somehow.
  7. „can exist, i don’t know“ and „the only thing i know for sure, is i exist“
  8. @Viking but what stands behind a label? isn‘t it a concept and a belief? so isn’t it worthwhile to check others concepts for relevance and grow on it? at least for truth? you can always agree to disagree.
  9. while most people love their chairs, i love the eamsen‘s. more dimensional than this. it‘s from 1977 , might contain spoilers:
  10. unintended recontextualisation the sign says: stop the hate stop afd (new rightwing party in germany, known for their nazi like paroles)
  11. the hamster wheel looks from the inside like a career ladder
  12. maybe this one... but it‘s more a: make it happen, for me, something recommendable for every dreamer out there. could also post pink floyd’s the wall now but i‘m not against education in general so it‘s more the „anybody out there?“ track (more a rethorical question) and i promised: silence
  13. sometimes i don‘t know what’s better, the courency has always been heartblead - so i do both, sometimes. and try to do the second one for now here. because it‘s now or never. unfortunately no fitting song for it to be found.
  14. ? sooo funny. i love it - will never exchange my canvas bags. and turquoise has also green elements ?. in berlin they use back packs more often. i don‘t agree that it is impossible to remain partly in one stage and enter another at the same time. it’s just a question where your pride sits in in the end. and @Zweistein ... i love your drawings - be it ice skating or writing or paintings or installations. especially the nude ones. for both of us it’s just a matter of skills and performance and decision making - that’s the dragon. think you need some silence around here now.
  15. whaaaa @tsuki that’s a mindfuck more over a soul fuck for a conscious designer. i prefer seeing what you see as furniture as stars - some are dark stars and some are shiny ones. you can look at them when you need inspiration. but still remain on earth. or sometimes visit them if you need to. but you can refurbish your house and throw the stuff you don’t like out and even give some stuff a new function. (not talking about people as stuff, well sometimes) you can‘t change being influenced, but you can chose who or what influences you.
  16. ? bought myself some dandelion salad, when i felt like that - you are observing yourself. that’s normal - and it’s openly. so sometimes it might feel like others see right through you. maybe even conversing with them in your mind. i don’t know what others see, but i can only see what i know for myself, so they still see themselves in you somehow - so you are only as open as you let others read you. and most people are so interested in themselves they don’t bother reading anyways. that’s the good thing and the sad thing ? just think of naked drawing, it’s the same thing. your doing an naked self portrait writing here, the others, too. that’s all.
  17. @Zweistein i feel sorry you feel like that right now. and hope it will be fine again very soon! you are such a strong woman - thank you for creating a creating space here, for synchronized ice skating. i think it’s just spinning a little bit after some pirouettes.
  18. @Zweistein maybe but you won’t loose the content, it’s just recontextualisation. @tsuki maybe you are a nihilist - but already one who turned to the yes? and it’s certainly not all you are... there is also a difference between nihilism and zen, even if they fit into each other - korean zen for example is different from japanese zen - but we know the japanese better. it’s not the theory that makes the person, it’s the prove against life that makes the theory and especially life that makes the person.
  19. @Zweistein whaaaa thank you!!! the eight in 3d, and a butterfly ?, too.
  20. @Zweistein @tsuki about nihilism in general and why nihilism is important and a strength in my perspective (took me some time to bring that into a thought): i think nihilism is indeed the power of rejection. people who go on this path, reject the inherent meaning of the way everything around them is organized. so they start deconstructing it, until they see it’s all just chaos, but also am able to see how society constructs this chaos. a true nihilist is also saying more no to the world than a positivist. nihilism maybe is also more often a male energy, so nihilists often work also more with the mind tool. learning to think like that, they are able to deconstruct reality for others - because they know to ask the deconstructing questions. positivistic thinking people always seem to find meaning in everything, sometimes without asking questions. they just take it for granted. i see myself as a yes sayer so if i meet with nihilists they trigger me to rethink my world construction. so i have to align with truth to not loose myself - some people might counterreact, because they don’t have a lot true ideals to cling to. but with an open mind it’s all about learning. so @Zweistein yes selfactualizers are all some kind of seekers - but some are more and some are less seekers of truth. it’s not better or worse it’s just the will to make a difference.
  21. @Zweistein hope it is also growing luck dragons! or transforming the dragon into a luck dragon! the orbitals - it’s an interesting picture! i’ll try to integrate that, too. we are talking about possibilities here, aren’t we? (bought two books: “ becoming super natural” from joe dispensa and “der weltgeist” from roger d. nelson)
  22. have weird experiences with animals these days - maybe because i see them more conscious now. even see their traces - and dogs seem to love me (runs in the family). saw a really nice dragonfly the other day it sat on a tree, it had one wing broken, but could still fly - but it didn’t too much so i could face it. tried to see it’s face and it looked almost like it was communicating, it’s head was moving while watching i guess. really amazing. it didn’t have a special colour but it was one of the bigger ones. i remembered how my mother has this small pond behind her house, where dragonflies put their eggs - so in late summer there where always some around our house - even saw one with a red corral colour once - it looked like a flying coral. one of the most beautiful things i’ve ever seen. yesterday i got visited by three bats - they were flying around in the living/bedroom in circles. why did they come? for the light? or the warmth? it blew my mind of - i was scared i might hurt them or they might hurt themselves - but then i realized they can navigate in the dark, and also fly in caves and i put the light of and left the room. and they disappeared one after the other. aren’t they cute? since i’m here i always interpreted something into nature. and i still do, but on the second thought - i just say: come on, and have to lough about my ignorance. i can’t prove something that doesn’t want to be proved.
  23. @Viking so you are an existentialist? maybe you need to know what is your position in the world, by proving it against the theory of others. found this, written against the toilet walls in a berlin toilet:
