Beautiful piece by Eckhart Tolle.. “When you have left behind the opposites created by the mind, you become like a deep lake. The outer situation of your life and what happens there is the surface of the lake. It is sometimes calm, sometimes windy and rough, depending entirely on the cycle of the seasons. But deep down, the lake is always untouched. You are the whole lake, not just the surface. You are in touch with your own depth, which remains completely still. You do not resist change by mentally clinging to a particular situation. Your inner peace does not depend on it. You remain in Being, unchanging, timeless, immortal. You are no longer dependent on the outer world of constantly changing forms for fulfillment or happiness. You can enjoy it, play with it, create new forms, appreciate the beauty of it all. But you no longer feel the need to cling to it.” Photo: Deborah Healy.

NL (English below): Het gebeurt zo vaak… Irritaties, soms zelfs onbewust gevormd. En vele hebben geen idee, dat dit niets over de ander zegt De eerste stap is hiervan bewust worden. Bewust van het feit dat zo’n irritatie meer zegt over onszelf, dan over de ander. Dat ze als een spiegel zijn en waardevol is omdat het ons iets leert, en ons een beter begrip van onszelf geeft. Dus bij de volgende keer als jij je aan iets of iemand irriteert, denk dat aan deze wijze woorden van (o.a.) Jung en vraag aan jezelf: wat zegt dit (over) mij? — English: It happens so often... Irritations, sometimes even formed unconsciously. And many have no idea, that this says nothing about the other person. The first step is to become aware of this. Aware that such irritations say more about ourselves, than about the other person. That they are like a mirror and even valuable because it teaches us something, and gives us a better understanding of ourselves. So the next time you are irritated by something or someone, remember these wise words of (among others) Jung and ask yourself: what does this say (about) me? #pattyspsyche #psyche #psychologie #filosofie #wijsheid #quote #carlgustavjung #irritatiefactortje #self #understanding #motivatie #spiegel #bewustzijnsontwikkeling #consciousnesscreatesreality #consciousness #bewustzijn

In general X (Twitter) is like an open sewer but sometimes something nice comes along. Like this video of panda dolphins
