We must understand ourselves as we are momentarily, without collecting experiences

In order to create a fundamental philosophical revolution in yourself, you must understand the processes of the thoughts, and of the feelings, as they reflect themselves in the relationship with others.

This is the only solution to all our problems – not to subject us more kinds of discipline, more kinds of beliefs or ideologies, or to find more spiritual teachers.

If we understand ourselves as we are momentarily, without collecting experiences - that is to say: meditative-existential - then you can experience a peace, which is not a thought-product, a peace that neither is fantasy or a condition we grow; and only in the condition of peace there can be creation.

Happy is the one, who is able to meet life completely and directly in all fields

The challenges of life don´t meet us in a single area.

Life doesn´t take place only in, for instance the economical and political area.

Life is relationships within different areas, where it gives itself multifold expressions.

Happy is the one, who is able to meet life completely and directly in all fields.

Such a meeting can be characterized as that, which the Danish life-philosopher Løgstrup, calls a sovereign life-expression.

The sovereign life-expressions are among other things: love, mercifulness, trust and the openness of the speech.

Being together breaks down without trust, the speech is being distorted without openness, and becomes superficial or dishonest.

All our relationships largely build on image-formation

It is clear that a human relationship, which rests on various fate-weaved images of life, never can be peaceful, because these images of life is fictional and you can't live in an abstraction.

And yet this is what we all do: we live in ideas, in theories, in symbols, in conceptions we have created about ourselves and others, and which haven´t anything with reality to do at all.

All our relationships, in respect to property, ideas or people, largely build on this image formation, and therefore there is always conflict. 

That´s the labyrinth with the tortuous path and the shadowside.

Unless we meet relationships completely there arises conflicts in the meeting with the challenge

The human being who observes and meets life, as if it for instance only is limited by the economical, or intellectual relationship, is not a Man of wholeness, and his conflicts are countless, because life is the connection with everything; with things, humans and ideas, and unless we meet these relationships completely, correctly, there arises conflicts in the meeting with the challenge.

Our life-expressions become self-circling.

You must become aware of how you react to the challenges of life

Relations can be seen as a philosophical sparring partner.

And this will be to use the communicative reason.

The relationship is namely a medium of self-exposure, because the relationship is to be. It is the actual life.

Without relationships we don´t live.

In order to be able to understand yourself you must therefore understand the relationship.

You must become aware of how you react to the challenges of life, and for instance write it down in the philosophical diary.

When it only is images, which are facing each other, there is no human relationship between you and the others

As a Life Artist you could ask yourself, whether you ever have looked at other people without the images you have formed of them - images you have pieced together through many years.

You have formed an image of other people, and they have formed an image of you.

When it only is these images, which are facing each other, then there is no human relationship between you and the others.

Consciousness is a characteristic of Man, both as history, rationality, desires, nature and relationships

Is it possible for the mind altogether to empty itself for its historical limitation?

The mind has many layers of images, both personal, collective and universal.

The so-called consciousness consists of these many layers of images, and there is an intercommunication between these layers, all the layers are dependent of each other and influence each other.

The whole of the consciousness of Man is not only a process whereby something is experienced, but also whereby something gets name, is designated and stored as memories.

Consciousness is therefore not only a characteristic of Man as a rational being. It is also, on various levels, a characteristic of Man, both as history, desires, nature and relationships.

Self-knowledge is the virtue in answering the above question.

We like rather to live in the past or the future, than to see the relations in which we are in the moment

The relationship is a mirror in which you can see yourself.

This mirror can either distort or expose the truth about yourself.

Most of us see in the relationship, in the mirror, what we preferably want to see, but we don´t see that, which is real. We like to condemn, justify, compare, or escape, and rather live in the past or the future, than to see the relations in which we are in the moment.

In this way the present, as Pascal said, only becomes used by the past as a passage to the future, and therefore the relationship – which is something that is in the moment, and not in past and future – becomes meaningless, wherefore there arises unreality and absence.
