East Versus West
Show believes that every Eastern and Western philosophy, and even religion, sends the same message but with different approaches. The paths, perspectives, and languages are different, but everyone is working towards the same destination of love, unity, fulfillment, service, and connection. We all want to get to the same place with zen Buddhism and stoicism guided by similar principles.
Stop Chasing, Start Attracting
People have been commenting the same thing on Show’s video on chasing versus attracting: if you’re not chasing, how are you going to connect? Show gets it, but attracting is more active than chasing. Like the lion and the deer, chasing after someone or something only makes that thing run farther away from you. If you’re attracting, it’s like the cheese in the trap. It’s active action that leads you to getting what you want with the least amount of effort. There’s certain time, energy, and effort that you have to put on to prepare for this attraction. It’s not about doing nothing, but attracting something through the energies and vibrations you give out. Attracting is understanding powerful, although invisible, things around you and being able to utilize it rather than chasing around and getting tired and burnt out over something that isn’t meant to be yours. If you surrender to the world, you are preparing that trap and the whole system to attract something that comes into your life.
“Karoshi”
The extremity of the concept of “busy” found in Japan is through a phenomenon called “karoshi” or death by overwork. This collective belief has become a moral and cultural code in the country towards respect. When you break down the word “busy” in Japanese, which is also derived from the Chinese language, it means “heart” and “ nothing”, or simply put, “you lose your heart”. When we are too busy with work, you forget the most important thing which is to just be present in the moment. Marriages fail, toxic behaviors and bad patterns prevail because of this. Everyone is always in search of something, but the meaning of life is to just be present and simply be.
