An Introduction to Zen Buddhism... and Heidegger!noiseTM
Zen Buddhism – emphasising the transitory nature and ultimate emptiness of everything, Zen can appear at once peaceful, baffling, wise, nihilistic, and downright surreal to western eyes.
Martin Heidegger – the modern German philosopher said western philosophy had ignored the issue of BEING ITSELF, and he attempted to construct an account of existence from scratch with his 'phenomenology'.
Is the Zen concept of “enlightenment” the same as Heidegger’s “authentic being”, or what?

The Interview
Discovering
Difference: and
Working Toward
Understanding
T
In this interview you work to understand another human
being by developing a receptive and welcoming attitude toward your interviewee. You
will review the principles of CMM as you understand them, keeping in mind that this
interview is designed to help you create a positive social world with another person who is
different from you. Two things to keep in mind from CMM are to listen in a way that makes
others want to speak to you, and to speak in a way that makes others want to listen to
you.
You will also make use of Politeness Theory as you speak and listen in such a way as to
maintain the “face” of another human being, that is, the self-respect that person has for
him or herself and treating that person with dignity. Recognize that we all want to be
liked, admired, appreciated and approved. Respond to the other with empathy and
compassion.
Work toward having that “authentic dialog” mentioned by Paolo Freire. This means
regarding the other person as a genuine subject. Finally, you will complete the “praxis” as
Freire defines it, by not only acting through the interview, but by reflecting upon it at the
conclusion.

A375 Example Taste the taste of the Lord, the taste of the Lord The taste of...franktsao4
It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
