Orakelet i Delfi er en helligdom dedikert til Apollon som var kjent for sine visdomsord og råd som ble formidlet gjennom prestinner kjent som pythia. Blant de mange inskripsjonene som prydet tempelet, er det tre som har fått spesiell oppmerksomhet opp gjennom historien.
Den første innskriften, "Kjenn deg selv," Γνῶθι σαυτόν, er et mantra som har inspirert mennesker i århundrer. Disse enkle, men kraftfulle ordene oppfordrer oss til å reflektere over vår egen natur, å forstå våre dyder, feil og begrensninger. Gjennom selvrefleksjon kan vi oppnå større innsikt i oss selv og vår plass i verden. Budskapet minner oss om at før vi kan håpe på å forstå andre eller verden rundt oss, må vi først lære å forstå oss selv.
Den andre innskriften, "Intet til overmål," Μηδὲν ἄγαν minner oss om viktigheten av balanse i alt vi gjør. Dette er en påminnelse om å unngå ekstremer og overdrivelse. Å søke etter eller ønske seg noe i overflod kan føre til ubalanse og forstyrrelser i våre liv. Orakelet lærer oss å finne harmoni og proporsjon i våre handlinger, og å leve et liv der ingenting er i overmål. Dette konseptet gjelder ikke bare materielle goder, men også følelser, ambisjoner og lidenskaper.
Den tredje innskriften, "Et løfte og enden er nær," Ἐγγύα πάρα δ' Ἄτα er mindre kjent, men likevel bærer den med seg en dypere betydning. Dette budskapet minner oss om at livet er forgjengelig og at vi må verdsette tiden vi har. Det er en påminnelse om at vi ikke kan utsette våre mål og drømmer til senere, fordi livet er uforutsigbart. Vi må handle og leve i nuet, sette våre intensjoner og løfter, fordi enden kan nærme seg raskere enn vi tror.
Inskripsjonene på tempelet var en påminnelse om at menneskelig innsikt og visdom er universelle prinsipper som går utover tid og sted. Disse budskapene fra Orakelet utfordrer oss til å utforske vårt indre selv, å finne harmoni i våre handlinger og å leve hvert øyeblikk med bevissthet.

BUSINESS ETIQUETTE | GREETINGS AND INTRODUCTIONS.

It is a common courtesy to greet both customers and visitors to your business in a friendly and professional manner. It is also common sense that most companies expect their employees to act professionally and to pay great attention to how they greet visitors.

In any business situation, but especially in an international setting and when communicating in a foreign language, it is imperative that you also pay attention to the societal norms of different cultures and their customs.

For instance, in most western cultures, the handshake is a common greeting which is also used to conclude business dealings. In American culture, the handshake is a sign that a deal has been agreed upon by all parties, and politicians from all countries vie for the obligatory handshake photo opportunity with visiting dignitaries.

Learn more about the handshake and other greetings in episode 2 of BizPod.

Covid-19 & other Medical Related Words

30 Lao Words about Covid-19 and other Medical related Terminologies (Part 1)

Unlike her grandmother's generation, Chloe's age group is spending so much time on their phones at home that they are missing out on spending time with their friends in real life. Sheila, on the other hand, has made contact with old friends from school she hasn't heard from in forty years. 'We use Facebook to arrange to meet all over the country,' she says. 'It's changed my social life completely.'

Teenagers might have their parents to thank for their smartphone and social media addiction as their parents were the early adopters of the smartphone. Peter, 38 and father of two teenagers, reports that he used to be on his phone or laptop constantly. 'I was always connected and I felt like I was always working,' he says. 'How could I tell my kids to get off their phones if I was always in front of a screen myself?' So, in the evenings and at weekends, he takes his SIM card out of his smartphone and puts it into an old-style mobile phone that can only make calls and send text messages. 'I'm not completely cut off from the world in case of emergencies, but the important thing is I'm setting a better example to my kids and spending more quality time with them.'

Is it only a matter of time until the generation above and below Peter catches up with the new trend for a less digital life?
