Rytietiška laimės samprata

Vakarų intelektinė tradicija teigia, kad norėdami būti laimingi pirmiausia turime užkariauti pasaulį: sukaupti išteklių, įkurti verslus, valdyti valstybes, pelnyti šlovę ir užkariauti tautas.

Tuo tarpu Rytų tradicija jau labai seniai moko visai ko kito. Tiek budizmas, tiek induizmas tvirtina, kad tikras pasitenkinimas gyvenimu atsiranda ne tada, kai užkariaujame pasaulį, bet tada, kai išmokstame suvaldyti priemonę, per kurią tą pasaulį suvokiame – savo protą.

Rytų išmintis sako, kad visiškai nesvarbu, kokie įspūdingi bus mūsų pasiekimai – kiek pinigų sukaupsime, kiek draugų turėsime ar kokia garsi taps mūsų pavardė – jei mūsų protas ir toliau bus pažeidžiamas emocinių audrų.

Rūmai su septyniais atspindinčiais baseinais ir sodais, apsodintais migdolais bei vyšniomis, neteks visos savo vertės, jei žmogų užklups depresija.

Nuolatinis nerimas sugadins net ir greičiausio privataus lėktuvo savininko gyvenimą.

Milžiniškas turtas neturi jokios vertės, jei žmogų nuolat graužia paranoja.

Nelaimingi santykiai akimirksniu panaikina visus privalumus, kuriuos suteikia gerbiamas vardas.

Matydama, kokie trapūs yra visi išoriniai pasiekimai prieš proto nepastovumą, Rytų tradicija ragina liautis nuolat pertvarkius materialų pasaulį, kad vėliau vis tiek būtume palaužti psichologinių problemų. Vietoj to ji kviečia mokytis valdyti ir suprasti tą nepaprastai sudėtingą, sunkiai paklūstantį instrumentą, per kurį išorinis pasaulis pasiekia mūsų sąmonę.

Užuot visą gyvenimą kūrę imperijas, turėtume daugelį metų skirti tam, kad tyrinėtume savo mintis ir svajones. Turime apmąstyti savo šeimą, ekonominę sistemą, kurioje užaugome, seksualinių troškimų įtaką ir biologinę bei kosminę gamtos tvarką, kurios dalimi esame – nors ir be galo maža.

Turime išmokti kvėpuoti taip, kad kuo daugiau deguonies pasiektų mūsų priekinę smegenų žievę. Turime išmokti laikyti savo kūną taip, kad vidaus organai nebūtų suspausti, o kraujotaka nebūtų nepastebimai trikdoma.

Turime reguliariai miegoti pakankamą valandų skaičių ir pašalinti blaškymą bei perdėtą jaudulį, kurie drumsčia mūsų minčių tėkmę.

Tai anaiptol nėra lengvas uždavinys. Tiesą sakant, tam reikia tiek pat darbo, kiek vadovauti didelei advokatų kontorai.

Tačiau jogai ir išminčiai teigia, kad būtent toks gyvenimo būdas suteikia daug tvirtesnį pagrindą tikrai laimei negu ką tik paskirto generalinio direktoriaus banko sąskaita ar jo jachta prie Barbadoso krantų.

Viena iš priežasčių, kodėl ši mintis mums vis dar atrodo sunkiai įtikima, yra ta, kad mums sunku patikėti, jog sėkmė, didžiuliai turtai ir rūmai galiausiai neatneša laimės.

O taip yra todėl, kad pernelyg mažai žmonių, kuriems teko mėgautis visais šiais turtais, nuoširdžiai papasakojo, ką iš tikrųjų reiškia juos turėti.

Didelę intelektinės istorijos dalį, perspėjančią dėl pernelyg pasaulietiško gyvenimo, parašė žmonės, kurie skambėjo įtartinai neturtingi ir pavydūs.

Todėl ypač reikšminga ir padrąsinanti tai, kad budizmą įkūrė Sidharta Gautama – buvęs princas ir prabangos mėgėjas. Jis turėjo rūmus, turtus, tarnus ir šlovę, tačiau viso to atsisakė, kad atsisėstų po bodhi medžiu.

Todėl jis galėjo kalbėti ne teoriškai, o iš savo patirties – ką materialūs dalykai žmogui gali duoti ir ko jie negali duoti.

Be jokio apsimestinio kuklumo jis tvirtino, kad jų nepakanka.

Maistas gali būti puikus, kambariai – prabangūs, tačiau visa tai negali suteikti laimės, jei žmogaus protas yra neramus, blaškomas baimių ir vidinio nestabilumo. O toks protas beveik neišvengiamai išlieka tol, kol žmogus neskiria daug laiko emociniam ugdymui ir nuolatinei dvasinei praktikai.

Į Rytų perspėjimus verta žiūrėti rimtai.

Kad ir kaip stengtumėmės, logiška manyti, jog būsime laimingi tik tiek, kiek ramus yra mūsų protas.

O kadangi mūsų protas toks pažeidžiamas, o gyvenimas toks trumpas, tikriausiai būtų išmintinga daugiau laiko skirti savo psichikai ir šiek tiek mažiau – planams apie antrąjį namą ar biurą Niujorke.

Vakarai sukūrė pernelyg daug nelaimingų turtuolių, o Rytai – pernelyg daug iš tiesų ramių išminčių, kad ir mes nenukreiptume savo dėmesio nuo pasaulio užkariavimo prie savo proto pažinimo ir suvaldymo.

Eastern Happiness


The Western intellectual tradition suggests that in order to be happy, what we need to do most of all is to go out and subdue the world; secure resources, found businesses, run governments, gain fame and conquer nations. By contrast, the Eastern tradition has for a long while told us something very different. In both its Buddhist and Hindu strands, it has insisted that contentment requires us to learn to conquer not the world but the instrument through which we view this world, namely our minds. It won’t matter, says the East, how lustrous and perfect our achievements end up being — how much money we accumulate, how many friends we acquire, how feted our name is — so long as our minds remain open to being troubled at any point by our emotional faculties. All the benefits of a palace with seven reflecting pools and gardens planted with almond and cherry trees will be wiped out by a depression. Chronic anxiety will spoil the ownership of the fastest jet. A fortune is of no use at all so long as one is nagged by paranoia. An unhappy relationship at once destroys any advantages of an esteemed name. Given this vulnerability of external goods to the vagaries of the mental realm, the Eastern tradition advises us to stop spending our time trying to rearrange the material building blocks of existence only then to fall foul of psychological ills — and to focus instead on learning how to control and manage the inherently unruly and hugely complicated instrument through which the external world reaches consciousness. Rather than striving to build empires, we need to spend many years examining how we think and dream; we have to reflect on our families, the economic systems we were brought up under, the impact of our sexual urges and the biological and cosmological order of nature of which we are an infinitesimal part. We have to learn how to breathe in such a way as to allow maximal oxygen to reach our frontal context and to hold our bodies so that our organs are not crushed and our blood flow subtly impeded. We need to be able to sleep a regular number of hours and remove all distractions and excitements that might disturb our streams of thought. This is by no means an easy set of priorities; it is indeed as much hard work as managing a law firm. But, the yogis and sages advise that it delivers us a far more secure hold on the actual ingredients of contentment than the bank account of a newly installed CEO with a yacht off Barbuda. Some of the reason why this continues to feel unreal is that we simply can’t imagine that success, great wealth and a palace wouldn’t in the end do the trick. And that in turn is because too few people who have been blessed with such accoutrements have ever given us an honest account of what it felt like to have them. Intellectual history, with its dire incantations against a worldly life, has been written by a set of suspiciously poor and envious-sounding people. It is therefore highly fortuitous and extremely reassuring that Buddhism should have been founded by a disgruntled former playboy, Siddhartha Gautama, who once had a palace and a trust fund, fame and servants, but gave them up to sit under a bodhi tree and could therefore tell us, with the benefit of lived experience, what material goods can really do — and not do — for us. And without false modesty, he insisted that they won’t be enough. The food may be tasty and the rooms elegant but such advantages cannot serve their purpose so long as one’s mind is haunted and unsteady, as it invariably will be without a long emotional education and regular spiritual practice. We should take the East’s warnings seriously. However hard we strive, it is logical that we can only be as happy as our minds are at peace. And given how vulnerable we are to mental disturbances, and how short our lives are, we should on balance almost certainly spend a little more time on our psyches and a little less time on our plans for a second home and a New York office. The West has produced too many unhappy playboys, and the East too many genuinely peaceful sages, for us not to shift our attention away from conquering the world towards taming our minds.

@ZLabe @anisian Thank you. I have read it. It is complete nonsense in terms of how they make predictions. The variables are all wrong. It is overly complex, which prevents us from seeing the origin of the problem. I want clear data on how the planet will respond under different CO₂ scenarios. It is nonsense to try to predict what humans will do, think, or what ideas we will develop or research we will discover. I want clear meteorological predictions. If you model a single day using updated data, you will be able to see the pattern. This article is wrong; it looks at only a single data point, without considering the pattern. The only line which makes sense is light blue, and we must focus on it. It is not prediction it is haliucination, like predicting the weather from today's termometer readings...

'Virtual farewells' have become a trend on Russian social media. AI generated videos, depicting soldiers who have been killed in the war and paid for by their families, are being produced by AI artists. They show fantastical scenes of soldiers ascending to heaven; portrayals of their family members as guardian angels hovering over the front line; or sometimes little boys imagining a heroic future fighting in Putin's war in Ukraine. Liza Fokht of BBC Russian has been following the trend on social media/.

 A documentary about deforestation in the West Papua region has attracted criticism from Indonesia's army. Some reports suggest the film Pesta Babi, or Pig Feast, has been banned, but the government insists that any cancelled screenings were the result of 'administrative procedures' and not an official ban. All the same, the controversy around the film seems to have made Indonesians more eager to find ways to watch it. BBC Indonesian's Lesthia Kertopati had a ticket for a screening this weekend.

Since the military coup in 2021, both international and domestic tourism in Myanmar has dwindled as insecurity and unpredictability in the country has put people off travelling. Incidents of robbery and kidnapping of tourists have been reported in the ancient city of Bagan, one of the most famous tourist hotspots. Soe Win Tan of BBC Burmese explains why this is happening.

The Fifth Floor is at the heart of global storytelling on the BBC World Service, bringing you the best stories from journalists in the BBC's 43 language services. We're here to help you make sense of the stories making headlines around the world; to excite your curiosity and to get to grips with the facts.

Recent episodes have investigated Russia’s youth armies and how they make soldiers of Ukrainian children; featured the BBC team who were the first journalists to the site of the Nigerian school kidnappings and reflected the effects of internet blackouts in Iran, Uganda and India.

If you want to know more about Venezuela’s acting president, Delcy Rodriguez, and the legacy of Hugo Chavez; or how Vladimir Putin’s network of deep cover spies operates; or why Donald Trump signed an executive order granting white South Africans asylum in the US, we have all those stories and more. This episode of The Documentary comes to you from The Fifth Floor, the show at the heart of global storytelling, with BBC journalists from all around the world.

Negalite priklausyti nuo nieko. Negalite gauti šviesos iš kito, kad ir kas jis būtų — Dievas, gelbėtojai ar Budos — jos negalima perduoti kitam; žmogus turi visiškai ir pilnai būti šviesa pats sau. Tai nereiškia savanaudiškos ar egocentriškos veiklos; priešingai, būti šviesa pačiam sau reiškia taip visiškai suprasti save, kad tame supratime nebūtų jokio iškraipymo to, kas esi.

In 2017, five men digging in an open pit found the third largest diamond ever unearthed in West Africa. It was dubbed the Peace Diamond, in memory of the brutal civil war that had ravaged large parts of the region in the 1990s – a war driven in part by factions competing for control of the diamond trade. When the Peace Diamond sold for $6.5 million at auction in New York, the government pledged some of the profits would provide solar power, a clinic, a school and a road connection for the Sierra Leonean village where it was found. Each of the diggers and the pit’s owner also got a small share of the spoils. Nine years on, Ed Butler returns to Sierra Leone to see how much the government kept their promise and to what extent the discovery really did transform the lives for those involved for better, or for worse. This episode of The Documentary, comes to you from Assignment.

The story of former French President Nicolas Sarkozy’s rise and fall has been gripping France. There are allegations of a secret pact with a dictator and unexplained meetings between figures close to government and a known terrorist. And so much cash that party workers do not know what to do with it. The former French President was jailed last year for conspiring to fund his 2007 election campaign with money from the late Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi. He is currently appealing his sentence - and he has some powerful supporters. Tristan Redman tells the story of how he became the first former French head of state to end up behind bars since Nazi collaborator, Philippe Pétain. Featuring investigative journalist, Fabrice Arfi from Mediapart; Daniele Klein whose brother was killed in the ‘French Lockerbie’ and her niece Melanie who lost her father; Alain Minc, one of Nicolas Sarkozy’s closest friends and advisers; the British writer and academic Andrew Hussey and Christine Lagarde, President of the European Central Bank, who was Sarkozy’s finance minister.

Žmogus turi būti laisvas tam, kad visiškai taptų šviesa pačiam sau. Šviesa pačiam sau! Šios šviesos negali suteikti kitas, taip pat negali jos užsidegti nuo kito žvakės. Jei užsidegi ją nuo kito žvakės, tai tėra žvakė; ją galima užpūsti.

Mes turėjome gausybę vedimo ir nurodymų. Kiekvienas laikraštis, kiekvienas žurnalas, kiekvienas pamokslininkas, kiekvienas kunigas visame pasaulyje mus veda, sako mums, ką daryti, ko nedaryti, galvoti taip, negalvoti anaip, atsiduoti, neklausyti jo, nes jis reakcionierius, klausyti manęs... Mes nuolat esame vedami, formuojami, lipdomi — sąmoningai ar nesąmoningai.

Čia mes nieko nevedame; mes esame tarsi du draugai, kartu besikalbantys apie dalykus. Tai visiškai kas kita. Ir vedimas trukdo supratimui gilesne šio žodžio prasme, nes jei tu mane vedžioji — daryk tai, nedaryk ano — aš pirmiausia negaliu suprasti savęs; aš nežiūriu į save, aš klausau, ką tu sakai. Tai reiškia, kad tu tampi autoritetu, o aš tampu tavo vergu — psichologiniu ar kokiu nors kitu vergu. Tų guru vietos, jų ašramai, tampa koncentracijos stovyklomis. Jie sako tau, ką daryti, kaip sveikintis, ir visa kita panaši nesąmonė. Aš nesmerkiu; taip tiesiog yra.

Kodėl mes negalime būti paprasti, matyti dalykus, žiūrėti į juos ir susidurti su jais tokiais, kokie jie iš tikrųjų yra, vietoj šio labirinto ir painiavos? Kodėl turime pereiti per visa tai?

Forty years ago, the world’s worst nuclear accident took place at Chernobyl, in what was then the Soviet Union. When news of the disaster began to emerge beyond the Iron Curtain, one of those paying close attention was Adi Roche in Ireland. At the time, Adi was working as a peace educator, teaching about nuclear weapons and Cold War tensions. She went on to found Chernobyl Children International, which became one of the most significant and sustained humanitarian responses to the disaster. Over the years, she brought aid and medical support to Ukraine, Belarus and other affected regions, established a paediatric cardiac programme for children born with heart defects, and helped arrange for children from Belarus to be adopted in Ireland. Colm Flynn meets Adi Roche to hear about the work that has shaped her life, and the Christian faith that she says has sustained her through it. This episode of The Documentary, comes to you from Heart and Soul, exploring personal approaches to spirituality from around the world.

Every year during Brazil’s carnival celebrations, samba schools are tasked with creating elaborate parades based around a unique theme, from which they build huge floats, compose a song, and choreograph an entire visual spectacle. Tom Raine follows one of São Paulo’s oldest samba schools, Águia de Ouro, in the final stages of creating their carnival parade for their most important event of the year - parading in São Paulo’s iconic Sambadrome in the attendance of thousands of people, and millions more watching on TV across Brazil. This year they have chosen a theme titled Amsterdam: City of Liberty, celebrating the cities’ values of freedom, tolerance and modernity. It is not just a celebration but a fierce competition, with rigorous judging and a football-style league system of promotion and relegation. This episode of The Documentary, comes to you from In the Studio, exploring the processes of the world’s most creative people.

New Year’s Eve in Sydney is more than the 12 o’clock show. It is an event that takes over an entire city. Fireworks are launched from the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Sydney Opera House, there are barges positioned across the Harbour, there are rooftops around the city with pyrotechnics, as well as lighting projections on the boats on the harbour, Luna Park and the bridge pylons. It is a year in the planning and one family has been designing the fireworks for this spectacular night for the last 25 years. Foti Fireworks is an award winning pyrotechnics family business originating in 1793 in Italy. They still have family members operating today, not only in Italy, but in Hong Kong and Sydney, Australia, bringing joy and hope to people all over the world. Regina Botros spoke with Fortunato Foti and other artists who together paint the canvas of the Sydney skyline for millions the world over

Panagrinėkime, ką kiekvienam iš mūsų reiškia vadovavimas ar pagalba. Ar tai nereiškia individualių sunkumų, skausmų ir kančių išsprendimo? Jei esi dvasinis mokytojas ar gydytojas, aš ateinu pas tave tam, kad man parodytum laimingą gyvenimo kelią arba išgydytum ligą. Mes ieškome gyvenimo būdo iš nušvitusio žmogaus, o žinių ar informacijos — iš išsilavinusiojo. Mes norime pasiekti, norime būti sėkmingi, norime būti laimingi, todėl ieškome gyvenimo modelio, kuris padėtų mums pasiekti tai, ko trokštame — švento ar pasaulietiško.

Išbandę daugybę kitų dalykų, mes pradedame laikyti tiesą aukščiausiu tikslu, galutine ramybe ir laime, ir norime ją pasiekti. Todėl nuolat ieškome to, ko trokštame. Tačiau ar troškimas kada nors gali pasiekti tikrovę? Ar troškimas kažko, kad ir kokio kilnaus, negimdo iliuzijos? Ir ar troškimas, veikdamas, nesukuria autoriteto, imitacijos ir baimės struktūros? Tai yra tikrasis psichologinis procesas — ir ar tai yra pagalba, ar saviapgaulė?

Earlier this month, a volcanic eruption, which sent a plume of ash some 10km into the sky, killed three people hiking up Mount Dukono in Indonesia. The tourists had climbed the mountain despite official warnings. It is the latest incident in recent years where tourists have been killed visiting an active volcano. We explore the attraction of volcanoes, as well as hearing about the extreme danger they can pose to visitors and those living nearby. “I think it’s good in life to maybe do something that scares you and be humbled,” says photographer Demian in Hawaii. Plus, volcano guides share their experiences, and we speak to someone who has chosen to make his home on the slopes of an active volcano, and find out what it is i like to be a lava chaser.
