The Less You Seek, The More You’ll Find | The Happiness Paradox | Einzelgänger
The Less You Seek, The More You’ll Find | The Happiness Paradox
Taoism for Inner Peace (book): https://einzelganger.co/tao/The less we try to think about a blue elephant, the more likely this creature persists in residing in our thoughts. Imagine the blue elephant represents our unhappiness – our dissatisfaction with life – hence the color blue. Obviously, no one likes feeling blue, and when we experience it, we’re likely to try getting rid of it. But the more we try to push it away, the bigger the blue elephant seems to become.Video: The Less You Seek, The More You’ll Find | The Happiness ParadoxSupport the channel:

Why Simplicity is Power | Priceless Benefits of Being Simple
Simplicity is the quality of being uncomplicated, which is beneficial in many areas. By being simple, whether in our thinking, desires, or how we arrange our stuff and furnish our living spaces, we can declutter our minds and focus on what truly matters—leading to clarity, peace, and fulfillment in our lives.Video: Why Simplicity is Power | Priceless Benefits of Being SimpleSupport the channel:

The Man Who Hated The World (Animated Short Story) | Einzelgänger
The Man Who Hated The World (Animated Short Story)
In a dirty prison cell, there lived a man who dedicated his whole life to isolating himself from the world. As opposed to most prisoners, he wasn’t put there against his will. This man voluntarily lived in a prison cell, knowing that he could walk out anytime he wanted. Nevertheless, he never tried.“Why should I?” he told himself every time this annoying voice tried to persuade him to leave. “The world is a disgusting place,” he uttered. “And in here, at least I’m safe”.He was a loner, without a doubt. But he didn’t choose solitude because he loved his own company. He did it because he hated the world.The Man Who Hated The World is a (motivational) short story about a man who suffers from severe existential angst. On top of that, he is tormented by an annoying voice that tries to persuade him to leave his cell. Even though he hates almost everything that the world has to offer, he does like the sea. Unfortunately, he is too scared to go out and visit.Rather, he enjoys the safety of his cell, and his resolve is strengthened by the misery that overcomes the people around him. But is he truly as safe as he thinks he is?Credits:Written by: Einzelgänger

When Life Falls Apart, Does it Actually Fall Into Place? | A Buddhist Story | Einzelgänger
When Life Falls Apart, Does it Actually Fall Into Place? | A Buddhist Story
When we’re hanging onto a root that’s chewed away by mice with a hungry snake below and an even hungrier tiger above us, what can we possibly do to get out of this situation? What is the best course of action when there seems to be no way out? When life falls apart, we might want to remember that everything changes all the time. Like night turns into day, bad fortune turns into good fortune, and a curse turns into a blessing. So, could it be that, eventually, life doesn’t fall apart but... Into place?This video is based on a Buddhist story, that I originally heard from a Buddhist monk named Ajahn Brahm. You can find the original dhamma talk here: https://youtu.be/Pe4gks2rAGgSupport the channel:
