Wayseeking Minds
Pointers from psychology, philosophy and Buddhism
for those looking for another way
When old ways of doing things fail us, we must adapt our course and head for new directions. In the open space of unknown possibility where no path keeps us collected, we are in danger of losing ourselves and fragmenting in doubt and conflict.
I write about how we can shed old constraints, drop into transformation, and find flow and ease in the unknown. To the everyday challenges of living and creating together, I bring insights from psychology, existential philosophy, Buddhism, and Taoism. On my blog, I will collect all my publications on various platforms and in digital magazines. Be in touch with suggestions and questions!
Dogmatic Resilience and the Perils of Purpose
We resent feeling helpless and need to be useful. Purpose gives us strength. Hence, we seek truths that tell us what's good and what's bad and what we are to do about it. Anxious not to get lost, we become rigid and assertive and, inadvertently, partake in the self-reproduction of conflict. There is another way.
