Jürgen Wagner

Once in your life - for Eric Clapton

Once in your life
You get such a choice
To win a good wife
To make a good noise
 
 ***

Tears on the earth
Clouds in the sky
Death and rebirth
Never ask why

 

 
 
Eric C. looking back as he was 13 years old:  I just managed to convince my grandmother that it was a worth while that was something to do, you know, and when I did finally get the guitar, it didn't seem that difficult to me, to be able to make a good noise out of it.
 
In 1991 Clapton's son Conor died at the age of four and a half, when he fell out of an open bedroom window on the 53rd floor of a Manhattan apartment building. Afterwards he composed  ‘Tears in heaven’, one of his most popular songs.

Meditationen über Gelassenheit von Jürgen Wagner



Der Zugang des Menschen zu seinem Wesen im Anschluss an Martin Heidegger und Meister Eckhart

Meister Eckhart und Martin Heidegger vereinigen auf ihre Weise Frömmigkeit und Denken. Beide bringen ans Licht, dass es in der Gelassenheit noch um mehr geht als um eine nützliche Tugend zur Stressbewältigung. So möchte dieses Buch dazu beitragen, dass wir westliche Menschen im Bewusstsein unserer Tradition u n s e r e n Weg zur Gelassenheit finden und gehen können. Die Begegnung mit anderen Wegen schließt dies nicht aus, sondern ein.
