BeInternational Turkey's Strategic Vision and Syria For most of the 20th century, Turkey chose not to get involved in Middle Eastern affairs. During the past decade, however, in a remarkable departure from this Kemalist tradition (based on the ideology of the republic’s founder, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk), Ankara has become a very active and important player in the region. Under the Justice and Development Party (AKP) government since 2002, Turkey has established closer ties with Syria, Iran, and Iraq, assumed a leadership position in the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC), attended Arab League conferences, and contributed to UN forces in Lebanon. It has also mediated in the Syrian—Israeli conflict as well as the nuclear standoff with Iran. Ankara’s diplomatic engagements with Iran and Hamas have led to differences with the United States and Israel, leaving many wondering if Turkey has been turning away from its Western orientation or if it was just a long overdue shift east to complete Turkey’s full circle of relations.

Gürkan Genç Effective Altruism Ventures Connexions - Sharing Knowledge and Building Communities sanuksummer | My summer in Thailand Effective Altruism Hub Místo věčného hledání se raději dívej | Život v přítomnosti Proč, pokud chceme poznat sami sebe, neustále hledáme? Víme, že hledané je hledající sám. Tak kam se to pořád díváme? Pokud se považuješ za "hledajícího", budeš hledat celý svůj život, protože "hledající" věčně něco hledá. Namísto toho "poznej sebe" jako "pozorujícího" – nehledej „něco“, ale dívej se „na“ to, co se nikdy neztratilo. Z této perspektivy se všechno otočí o 360 stupňů - okamžitě! HLEDAJÍCÍ: pořád hledá dalšího učitele, další knihu, video, audio, satsang, cvičení, nebo nějaký „klub nedvojnosti“, kde by možná mohl uslyšet ten správný výrok nebo větu, která všechno změní a náhle přinese osvobození. Může to být veselé, relaxující, nebo tě to na chvíli zbaví sama sebe. DÍVAJÍCÍ: dívá se na to, čím již je. Co je míněno díváním se „na“? Takže nyní jsi „dívající“ – díváš se „na“. Zvaž tedy tento návrh: skonči s hledáním a začni s díváním se dovnitř. Živoucnost je tím, čím jsi. Témata tohoto článku: hledání Tisk
