Down the Babel tower


Le monsieur qui parle, c'est Jiddu Krishnamurti, le super-héros des théosophes qui a passé sa vie à dire aux autres qu'il n'y a aucune raison qu'il en soit un, que chacun peut et doit vivre en harmonie par lui-même, et maintenant. Alors, ne vous en faites pas trop!

The man on the track speaking is Jiddu Krishnamurti, the Superman of the Theosophic Society, who spent his life telling people that he was no Messiah, and that each one of us could and should find harmony and peace deep within himself, and now. So, don't worry for a thing!

I love you

A friend is one who makes me better.  It's with this highly meme-sounding quote that I'd like to start today's rambling.  I've recently been on a long trip for a wedding and I had the chance to meet some of my friends along the way. The older I get, the more I realize how delicate our lives are. Everyone is getting older, marrying, becoming pregnant, helping a sick parent. Mortality and life become real themes, we fixate into matter, and despite what I've laboriously tried to prove, there is indeed such a thing as cause and consequence. Our lives decant, or at least yours do. But that's not the point. Meeting my core friends always warms up my heart, especially in Berlin, which remains the town in which I feel the more rested. It probably is because the general atmosphere of the town is more reflective and critical, and life is less filtered by everyone's ambition to run towards success (🔛 this way guys). But that's not either the point. As I was notici...

Karma part 1

Hello there, Long time no see uh? Since I'm currently travelling, I am once again meeting the nomad category of Western people in Asia. There are many things to say about why we travel, and who travels. What struck me again is to see how a lot of the people I met have integrated some chakrayalam concepts, including karma.  NB: chakrayalam is the language spoken by new age yogis travlin' around the world. Though it is not restricted to them, it's a weird mixture of pseudo spiritual stuff and relevant remarks on where to find a cheap dentist in Chiang Mai, with hints of sanskrit and mystical references. So with hard work and dedication, I've reached level A2. I cannot use it because I have not been allowed by the Supreme Council of Universal Thruths than Shall Remain Secret Especially to Those Who Respect Nothing, but also, it seems that I don't care and shall risk life bannishment because indeed, I respect nothing. So, karma.  I don't intend to refer to any spir...

Tout est parfait - souvenirs de l'EMS

Hello there forks bis, Today, let me start in French = english version is dispatched somewhere between the letters. Would you reshuffle it to make sense? Étant actuellement en vadrouille, je vais essayer de retranscrire quelques unes des expériences et enseignements de l'année passée - notamment du stage que j'ai effectué en EMS (EPHAD en France, maison de retraite médicalisée en non-acronyme). Depuis un certain moment coexistent dans mon esprit deux façons de considérer la personne. Il y a celle qui va de soi, que je ne vois que par l'autre, par négatif, qui est celle d'un héritage culturel : j'existe, je, lorraine, et je suis différente de toi, de vous. J'ai des préférences, une histoire, un corps, un métier, des opinions, des espoirs, tout ce que vous voulez. La preuve de mon existence? Je pense, certes, mais aussi je peux me déplacer, parler, agir, sans que d'autres approuvent ou sachent ou voient. Le matin quand je me réveille je ne me pose pas d...
