Derren Brown

Talking about BELIEVING Always I am impressed by the skills of Derren Brown. It is also my field of work of course to assist people to be aware of techniques and how to use them. Derren is entertainer in many ways, at the same time he shares here a little more. Analyse what he does. Note how ‘simple’ techniques makes eyes roll.  What we believe and hold for reality is one of the important questions for our way of life. Nationalism, believe in certain kind of therapy, the idiotic belief that success brings happiness, the focus on ongoing ‘ I first must love myself’, God, Buddha, Allah, Shamans, different kinds of dieting and so on. As you might know, if […]

date with destiny

The day we’ve longed for, the day we’ve dreamed Our fate and future, forever gleamed We’ll walk the path, with hearts aglow And see our destinies, begin to grow The stars align, and fate is kind We’ll leave our fears, and doubts behind We’ll take the leap, and reach for the sky And in each other’s arms, we’ll never die With every step, we’ll feel alive With every breath, our hearts will thrive We’ll face the world, with heads held high And watch our destinies, take flight For this is the day, we’ve waited for The day our souls, will forever soar Our love will guide us, through all time And together, we’ll make destiny shine   with this poem… […]

the lark… Everything of value is defenseless

Everything of value is defenseless So we come on this planet. In time as we learn to perceive it… in a blink of the universes eye… we come and go. Billions of cells without a remote control. Without notion of the sense of the play we are dropped in. Mostly ending  with a Deus ex machina. As so many fight with ‘the meaning’ of life. Confronted with horrible scenes of immense pain. Love being the confirmation of the very essence of being alive. The wave, the energy, the soft touching of minds and bodies… the loving eyes that meet… the expression, demonstration of skills after long practicing. Oh beauty. Feeling, sensory awareness… experiencing fundaments the essence…hence not the meaning… On […]

move with your senses

As you, my dear reader, are my audience. We both realize that we focus on the message out of what I am writing or better what we read what so ever. As we conditioned ourselves on so called outcomes…that have a spirit …for a day…, we take away the poetry and lock our selves as slaves of a process.   The only one who can read and do something with it, is the one who does something to divert what is called depression or cynicism.   People who gave away their responsibility are confused big time. In their real stupidity, strolling through the day without any sense of development. Giving away their choice making to economics… say … well marketed […]

Just a few lines along your road

Just a few lines about a road We have been teaching for centuries about how to socialize. How to adapt to a society that has the essence of a Zoo. With Zoo keepers. Asif Aldous Huxley was a messenger of the Universe pointing out what the small range of so called freedom would be. Nobody really knows nothing. What is dominating is the repeating of certain lines colored up by other sensory aspects. So far that now only media, movies and games are owners of peoples realities. Everything seems a theater. A Stage, with Shakespeare. Unable to cope, with the words of Pascal, with mortality.   I have had a lonely life. But am not alone in that… we did […]

Please understand that it is not to be understood

As living in Germany. In the smallest of towns in northern Hessen. Every day is a new challenge in adaptation. My connection with people is ok… but the moment they start talking about their believes and rationalized conditioned responses I often loose contact Start observing and am out of the interaction game. The birth of a voyeur without any sexual reference.   The preacher from one of the many Christian churches here came to me (what he never has done in the past 7 years) ‘In our church we created places for 24 people from the Ukraine…’ Proud as a monkey he was…finally a true Christian… I replied….”very good I have contact with refugees from Syria, Miramar, Yemen and many […]

the most important things in life are not things

If you frame me you deny me Or with Kierkegaard (1848) Once you Label Me, You Negate me… Framing and labeling is for Children of a lesser God… As is ordering somebody else what to do…hence my resistance against politicians and newspaper people…   There are people who chew on words from others…or their selftalk that  is not serving them but hurting their system. Words are not so much a reflection of reality as an elicitation of a certain part …neglecting the total picture.   Dreams and nightmares start more or less with the same process. Just a little selection of words to open consciousness on how to approach perception.   Dr. Benjamin Spock…(Baby’s and child care, 1946) ‘You know more […]

sensory acuity

Reaching out for the stars. The corner of Johan Wagenenaarlaan and Diepenbrocklaan (Music in the air…)in Leiden. An August evening say 10 o’clock. Years and Years ago… still yesterday…. Marian and me. Classmates and warm friends. Both 13 years old. The grass field about 100 by 100 meters. Next to a school. Near water… boats softly floating on their way to the next costumer. We lying on our backs in the still warm summer grass feeling each and every oddity that was softly supporting our body. Funny enough we both had wisps of grass in our mouth… tasting the grass as a dog eats it when the stomach needs a new balance.   The starry night had filled our perception, […]

The lightness of being or the existence- weighs…

  The lightness of being or the existence- weighs… So move…. How do we accelerate out of discomfort…into happiness…? In simple German : how do I stay happy and avoid hanging around in unhappiness to long Do not confuse unhappiness with experiencing the intensity of life emotions that really belong to life…. Like sorrow, grief, anger…. But for everything is a certain timeframe and it should not be forever… Personally I detest the ‘be optimistic’ statements …mostly that is lack of empathy and information… and trust me I am as much future and creation driven as can be.   About people First of all… as painful as it may sound. As hard as it is …. to get it into […]
