Episode 24: Die Weisheitswerkstatt über “Wuwei – Flow” Interview mit Andreas Andy Artmann

Der Begriff Wu wei, auch Wuwei stammt aus dem Daoismus. Er wird definiert als Nichthandeln im Sinne von eines naturgerechten Handelns. Wu Wei bedeutet nicht, dass man gar nicht handelt, sondern dass die Handlungen spontan in Einklang mit dem Dao entstehen. Dadurch wird das Notwendige leicht und mühelos getan und sowohl Übereifer, als auch blinder Aktionismus (die als hinderlich betrachtet werden) vermieden. Es ist ein Zustand der inneren Stille, der zur richtigen Zeit die richtige Handlung ohne Anstrengung des Willens hervortreten lässt. „Wu-Wei meint im Kern, Handlungen an der Natur der eigenen Individualität auszurichten, anstatt am rein kognitiven, nutzen orientierten Willen.“

Viel Spass beim Zuhören oder anschauen des Videos. Andreas‘ erfrischende und leichte Art macht Freude.

Episode 22: The Wisdom Workshop 2. Interview with Wulf M. Weinreich “Tibetan book of death, evolution, epigentic, economics and politics” (German)

IIn the first interview with Wulf Mirko Weinreich, we talked about the integral model and how it is possible, to unite economics, politics and spirituality with each other in this model. The base of this episode is the Tibetan Book of the Dead, which Wulf Mirko has simplified and made it compatible for the western world in German and English (NOT translated). “The integral Book of the Dead” supports dying people in being accompanied into the different “Bardos”. If it is so that all people die the same way, and if manifest, subtle & causal are universal categories, so that every person goes through them, then it must be possible to describe it to everybody, without having studied religion or Buddhism per se.

Why is it important for Julia and me to deal with death? The way people deal with crises makes it clear that we, especially in the western world, are afraid of death. The naturalness that death actually brings with it (everything that lives will die) has been lost and actions, especially in business and politics, are based on “life support at any cost”. The causes that lead to actual suffering are hardly considered at all. Symptoms are treated. The detachment from the subtle and causal gives rise to fear. The connection to them creates trust.

Have fun listening. It makes sense to watch the first interview with Wulf Mirko, because this interview is based on it.

Episode 21: The Wisdom Workshop “Grief Counseling” Interview with Marketing Manager Petra Sutor (German)

Petra Sutor is a marketing manager at an auditing and tax consulting firm.
As a grief counselor, she accompanies bereaved people who have lost relatives and colleagues. She is
a systemic coach and a successful author.

With her we talk about the topic of death, how she was able to, together with a colleague, establish a
contact point for bereaved people and to change death in this environment from a taboo subject to a
an accepted topic. It is a very versatile conversation, where amongst others, intercultural aspects,
as well as western and eastern manners play a role.

Look or listen to this very interesting and touching episode.

Episode 20: The Wisdom Workshop “An integral view on Corona, Leadership in Economics & Politics” Interview with Wulf-Mirko Weinreich (German)

This time it’s worth watching the video, because some slides are shown for explanation.
