假設、萬一,下個星期不幸又來一個颱風,你準備好了嗎?
Ubuntu
“you are therefore i am, i am therefore you are, therefore we are” (ubuntu)
很巧,昨天才寫到『我們、你們、他們』,今天就收到一封非洲朋友寄來的信。
台灣水患驚動全世界,我的非洲友人,畫家Chiko,也在網路上看到災情,特別傳來上面這一句話表達其同理心和關懷之意。Chiko 是辛巴威人,因此他對苦難的體驗是深切的、直接感同身受。
Linux不像微軟那樣金錢掛帥,樣樣要錢、時時要錢,Linux 講究關心和分享。他的作業系統以Ubuntu為名有其特殊意義, Ubuntu是祖魯語,意思是『人性』、『我的存在是因為大家的存在』,是非洲傳統的一種價值觀,類似我們說的『仁愛』或『博愛』思想。
雖然是天災,也已經被藍營支持者說是『誰來作都一樣』,或如馬英九所說的『他們』如何如何。成大副校長氣憤的說,要解決台灣水患最好的辦法就是讓總統府淹水。這話是有道理的,他突顯了官方和百姓的距離,他突顯了『人』的差異性。災害傷亡,任何一條命都是悲痛,此次受災最慘的不幸以山區原住民佔最大多數,想想看這些弱勢族群,本來族人總數就很少,每個傷亡在比例上所附載的沈重非其他人所能比凝。
剛剛聽到電視報導,小林村確定不開挖了,希望罹難者就地安息。從災難發生至今,我心裡最害怕的卻是突然又發現更深入、更人煙罕至的新的災區被發現,希望政府和美軍密切配合,透過多個衛星的密集空照圖作個徹底的比對。
也再次提醒馬英九,假設、萬一,下個星期不幸又來一個颱風,你準備好了嗎?

You Are, Therefore I Am
A Declaration of Dependence
by Satish Kumar http://www.chelseagreen.com/bookstore/item/you_are_therefore_i_am/
This book traces the spiritual journey of Satish Kumar--child monk, peace pilgrim, ecological activist, and educator. In it he traces the sources of inspiration that formed his understanding of the world as a network of multiple and diverse relationships.
You Are, Therefore I Am is in four parts. The first describes the author's memories of conversations with his mother, his teacher, and his guru, all of whom were deeply religious. The second part recounts his discussions with the Indian sage Vinoba Bhave, J. Krishnamurti, Bertrand Russell, Martin Luther King, and E. F. Schumacher. These five great activists and thinkers inspired him to engage with social, ecological, and political issues. In the third part Satish narrates his travels in India, which have continued to nourish his mind and reconnect him with his roots.
The fourth part brings together his worldview, which is based in realtionships and the connections between all things, rather than the philosophy of dualism, division, and separation that are found in Rene Descartes' famous maxim "I think, therefore, I am." Satish Kumar holds an emergent worldview encapsulated in a fundamental Sanskrit dictum, So Hum, well known in India but not in the West, which can be translated as "You are, therefore I am." This mantra underpins all the experiences brought together in this book.
藍營的說
誰來做都一樣
我說
誰來做的結果會不一樣
原因是對台灣的心態"差很大"
ㄧ個領導人的心只在"中國"
不在台灣
光這樣的心態就不一樣
有不一樣的心態
結果當然不一樣
