Absolute control is the zero point
To finally be able to gain control over the world. This is the desire of our mind. Born out of its fear of what it cannot control, or even comprehend. Only the total control of the world lies in the absolute zero point at -237° Celsius. There no atom moves any more. There everything is…

The art of fuge
John Steinbeck revered him. So did Aldous Huxley and Albert Schweitzer. Douglas Adams did, and many, many other people revere him even today: I am talking about the composer Johann Sebastian Bach. Again and again I came across corresponding statements praising his genius or the genius of his work. In particular, a work called „The…

Only know from own experience
Perhaps we should know less. But this little knowledge that we then have should be based on our own experience and also have a relevance for us. Then what we comprehend has a little more truthfulness and causes much less (maybe even no) confusion. By basing our knowledge on our own experience, we become more…

The god as person dilemma
If God is a person, then this is not really conceivable for us. Doubts arise for our mind. A God with a white beard in heaven…. If we see „God“ as a non-person, as the divine – as something impersonal – then the mind automatically sees only „chaos“. How can something (our existence) have a…

Nice and clean
„Your place is nice and clean!“ It is Klaus who addresses Hiltrud with these words. Hiltrud and I visited Elisabeth for coffee earlier in the afternoon, and later Klaus and his wife Gerda joined us. Hiltrud and I basically have nothing to do with the two of them. We only know them through Elisabeth. Klaus…

What does „radical“ mean?
Perhaps it is in the belief in God (or the belief in the divine, in a creator or also expressed quite differently) itself that it often appears to people outwardly „radical“, „fanatical“ or also simply „strict“. The realization of one’s own soulfulness and the bringing together of the soulful and the material in one’s existence…

Luck and misfortune
In most – maybe even in all – cultures there are pious or even everyday stories whose moral is that nothing that happens to you can be considered an absolute misfortune. The misfortune can always be the gate or the gate opener for a coming fortune. As a rule, this is a statement that everyone…

Self-healing is possible – when it is on the way
The existence of self-healing powers is certainly undisputed. We seem – at least in principle – to be able to heal all possible of our mental concerns and physical illnesses – If it is so intended on our way. (I add this restriction with regard to a round of talks I attended some time ago,…
