For a long time, i thought of keeping the following information to myself.
After a close second look, i figured it would be better to throw it all out and get it over with, even though this may lead to some controversy and misunderstanding.
The people who are familiar with the teachings of Jiddu Krishnamurti clearly see a lot of similarities between his and mine, and that is not a coincidence.
The fact: reading and listening to J. Krishnamurti’s words helped me a great deal in getting insight into my own life and …

People complain, people want change, and in the end, does it ever change? Does existence on this planet really change for the better, apart from the technological and medical progress? Have we ever evolved psychologically? Do we have more happy, fulfilling lives than a few millennia ago? Are we actually more depressed than ever before, or is it simply the fate of mankind to live in misery? Do we learn from our history, or do we use it to justify the same mistakes over and over again? Is it impossible …

Have you ever thought about what it means to be happy? Not what some philosopher or artist has said or written, but what it actually means to you and to somebody else? Have you ever wondered why you ask these questions? Is there any difference between being happy and being lucky?
In life there is good luck and bad luck, happiness and unhappiness, but that is something beyond our control for most part. What is considered good or trivial for one person can be a total disaster or very good fortune …

ontos: from Greek on (gen. ontos) = “being” (prp. of einai “to be”)
scopy: from Greek skopos = “seeing,” from skopein = “to watch.”

Some people have been wondering why i named this blog project “ontoscopy 101″, which, of course, i did not choose for no reason. I had been searching quite some time for a good word that would contain the essence of what i am trying to convey, and i could not find one, so eventually i created this new term. Well, kind of new. A few results showed up …

As some may know, loneliness – to feel lonely, isolated – has been a longtime hangup of mine. For more than a decade, to be precise, but that is a closed chapter now. Aloneness – to be alone – is still my main M.O., and the blues still get me from time to time.
Fortunately, i have learned quite a few things about this phenomenon, through many years of feeling, looking, writing, acting, reacting, thinking and unthinking. To spare you the time and trouble, i here present to you some observational …

Before i start getting more of these sorts of questions, let me clarify what this web log is about, why i came up with this project.
The answer is very simple: because nobody else is.
Fuck opinions, let’s stick to the facts.
This blog is both selfless and self-manifested action. I am not out for fame, money, or any other personal gain. All i do is observe and try to describe reality, i am not interested in controversy or creating more conflict. Entertainment is cool and has its place in life, but here …

Why on earth do we make such a big fuss about our identity? Why can’t we just live as human beings with our apparent differences? Why the division? Would everything have been solved if there were just one global holy book? Or if everybody believed there is no god? Would there still be war for territory without any borders across the world? Do we really need these imaginary things to get along?
This whole setup of isolation is absolutely artificial, it has no other basis than different upbringing, different dogmas, different …

cynic: a person who believes that only selfishness motivates human actions and who disbelieves in or minimizes selfless acts or disinterested points of view;
cynicism: contempt for and suspicion of human nature; heartlessness, misanthropy;
Cynicism is the logical outcome of almost any other -ism. People who gather behind ideas and oppose others have lost touch with themselves. Ideologists, intellectuals, have lost touch with the basic nature of harmony with which we are all born. Thought brings conflict, and truly living in the present moment is only possible when thought is not …

There are no war heroes, that’s just plain old bullshit. The perpetuation of this popular lie only assures the creation of future wars. If you really don’t want new wars, then stop decorating veterans, get rid of those preposterous statues, and stop making glamorizing documentaries about people killing people, all that hollywood nonsense. Nobody needs to be honored. Maybe it’s ok to give a little kid a reward at certain times, but grown ups should know better. Any wise, sane man or woman cannot possibly feel proud about having killed …
