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

To the basis of evil: Now you may be thinking. This quote, it's nonsense! But this quote has to do with judging, telling the other person's story. Let me explain. Because we look outside ourselves-superficially at the other person's story-we don't have to look at ourselves. (although the over-judging other often serves as an over the mirror to ourselves as well). There is also no time for focusing on ourselves, our shadows and imbalance. Our own story is relegated to the unconscious and we tell the story of the other. A story that does not rhyme with our own, out of lack of empathy. This is the basis of harm. A good question to ask yourself here is: do I know my story? Am I conscious of it, or is it tucked away in the unconscious? Once you know your own story, judgment will quickly disappear, empathy will arise and understanding will take its place. side-note: an opinion is substantially different from a judgment!

The ancient Babylonians' use of a base-60 numerical system has left a profound legacy on contemporary measurements and calculations. Their advanced grasp of mathematics and astronomy is reflected in the enduring principles of 60 seconds per minute and 360 degrees in a circle. Investigating the origins of these fundamental concepts unveils the Babylonians' remarkable precision and foresight. Considering the depth of their mathematical knowledge prompts contemplation about what other groundbreaking discoveries this ancient civilization might have made. Exploring these uncharted territories holds the promise of uncovering hidden treasures of innovative contributions that could redefine our understanding of history and science.
