Less Violence!  I remember one of our key topics in teaching English was on violence. I would ask my crowd of students every year anewly if they thought that violent videos games generally made people become more violent, and the overwhelmingly unanimous answer was Yes. I came here and was pretty surprised to encounter a rather non- chalant way among young folks of dealing rather naturally with stunningly brutal and quite drastically graphic video war games. I even stumbled across a couple of national surveys claiming that there was no connection whatsoever between violence displayed and conveyed by means of such war games and an increasingly high inclination as far as violent behavior among teenagers and adults. Really? Get alive people! Why is it then that here of all the countries there are far more violent incidents on a daily base than anywhere else? Just last night the news reported about a white naked man somewhere nearby Miami, Florida biting chunks out of another white male's face! Don't tell me things like these happen because they just occur naturally! I recall someone saying on TV that he couldn't possibly tell the difference anymore between those so scaringly realistically designed war games and real battle scenes. That guy had served in Afghanistan twice. I also remember another documentary in which students were interviewed about their video watching and gaming habits. One kid said that he loved those games where he could shoot off people's heads because that way he could rid himself of his aggressions. He also said that he was wondering if shooting someone for real was that easy! Another teenager bragged about holding the record in shooting all his enemies in the game thinking of all the teachers he couldn't stand. Well, HELLO! So, if watching violence on TV and playing violent video and PC games does not influence and mould young people, why do kids and teenagers here create school massacres like nowhere else? I really don't care what those supposedly valid surveys claim. Instead I rely on having asked many young people throughout quite a number of years as well as on what reality in fact proves to be. Take all that violence filled garbage off the shelves, and keep it out of kids' reach at least until they are old enough to handle fictitious violence.

Seelenpartner, Zwillingsseelen, ... Alles Aus Einer Einzigen Seele (II)

Seelenpartner, Zwillingsseelen, ... Alles Aus Einer Einzigen Seele (II)   - Die Dauer unserer Zusammenkünfte mit anderen Seelen mag von einigen Minuten bis hin zu einer Stunde, einem Tag, einer Dekade oder sogar darüber hinaus variieren. Das zeichnet uns grundsätzlich alle aus. Beziehungen lassen sich niemals zeitlich messen sondern vielmehr in geteilten wie gegenseitig beigebrachten Lebenslektionen und kommen durchaus auch zwischen Seelengefährten, Zwillings- und rein theoretisch auch unter Parallelseelen vor. Letztere aber treffen recht unwahrscheinlich zur selben Zeit zusammen. - Lasst mich zuerst auf das Konzept der Zwillingsseelen, Zwillingsflammen oder auch Zwillingsstrahlen eingehen. Kurz zusammengefasst, handelt es sich hierbei um zwei Hälften EIN und DERSELBEN Seele, die zu Anbeginn der Zeit in absolut harmonischer Koexistenz lebten. Selbst als wir uns als Seelen von DER Quelle an sich abspalteten, um uns letztendlich zu individualisieren, waren wir unverändert eins. Jede ...

Achte Auf Deine Wünsche (I)

Achte Auf Deine Wünsche (I)  - Hallo, liebe Leser, und willkommen zurück zu meinem Blog! - Keine Ahnung, warum, aber bereits von ziemlich klein auf war ich mir gewahr, dass unserer Seelen letzten Endes entweder Gottes oder des Teufels seien. Allen Ernstes, soweit ich zurückdenken kann, war ich mir merkwürdiger Weise speziell der Polarität um Gott und Teufel bewusst. Möglicherweise war dies auch das Resultat der einst diesbezüglich gemachten Erfahrung meiner selbst. Zweifelsohne fällt einem solchen hypothetischen Gedanken nur dann Gültigkeit zu, sofern dieser auch tatsächlich der soliden Überzeugung in punkto Existenz von Reinkarnation und Wiedergeburt entspringt. Nun denn, als überzeugter Anhänger, beziehungsweise Befürworter von gleichsam vergangenen wie zukünftigen Leben, die allesamt unserer persönlichen karmischen Textur Gestalt geben, wollte ich der Materie nicht bloß blind vertrauen sondern forderte dreist handfeste Beweise darüber. Ach, du liebe Güte! Auf mich wartete fürwa...
