Translations are often the views or claims of the translator, not of the original author

 The Google translations of my Finnish healing blog are often very different from the original Finnish healing advice and often contain entirely different claims. My healing blogs should be translsted in a dictionary like way. Mostly the internet teanslatilns are very different from that. So they are the works of the translators and not my texts at all. 

3rd of November 2023   It may be that an objectively thinking individual can translate theoretical ideas at a general level so that the translation is very much the same in what comes to the original ideas. But when there is some social information, or something tuned to ways of living, climate or culture, translating those to anither culture, climate, ways of living, profession, ways of being social or the like, means that the translated text is the work of the translator and my original texts sre just one of it's sources in literature. So mostly, if the translation is not dictionary like, the translated text's Author is the translator, and so also in questions of selling, copyright, etc. But that also means that it should not so strongly, if at all refer to me or my work, since the impressions that readers get from the translated text via their social eye and experience of life & professilnal skills etc do not refer to me but are instead characteristics of the translator, his/her views and intentions, the other culture, etc.

My birthday and my childhood name

My birthday is 8. of August. As numbers 8.8. it brings to my ming four round circle like things of which two pairs are more closely connected. The healthy round forms bring to my mind symbiosis and a model of the world. So it is like one form of my paradise theory. I have not noticed it having influenced my thinking, except that I have come to notice the possibility of such a model and on the other hand my childhood environment maybe saw such a view as part of what I might be like because of my birthday. Late summer is also a time of warmth at the same time with the need to defend the good things summer brings, the loves in one's life from the coming autumn and winter. So that too may have affected my view on what is the task of thinking, theory and work. * * * (7. March 2016 As a child I had the last name Hari, so my name Kaisa Hari bought the associations "keisari" = emperor and "tsaari" = Russian tsar (emperor). So I took it to my task to cultivate some...

Each one has a different view of skills etc

 Some day last week I on some mental side talked momentarily with someone who had read my book A Sorcerer, and it was as if she knew it well, but even though she appeared inclined toward rational style life, she did not seem interested in the skills taught in the book, so her version of such was very far from mine. Yet my experience is that many social relations oriented people refer to the more rationally oriented in getting a kind of schooled view, so even those go much further from the original. And these are who are claimed to be of roughly the same type and same skills as the writer, while others left more far away in views, which seems that either they caught nothing of the communication or then there was some similarity, for example a hobby like interest in the subjects shared with the writer, which brought the clmmunication. So even though one can tell of skills, for example to look detailedly at some points, the level of actually living one's life is very different. It doe...

A video: "Rescued lion with a turtle nest on it's back"

 A video: "Rescued lion with a turtle nest on it's back" I have written a lot. Thoughts are the task of the one thinking, instead of only the task of some forefigure or original thinker in the subject. Thoughts are not that much collective. You must build your own picture of the world yourself, I cannot command what to think. I feel that I have stayed in this subject so long that many others just refuse to think, as if it were my task to carry them. One should try to notice when one is under the lowest level ok for living beings or the like, and not suppose such laziness in thinking to be ok.  In my twenties Practised aikido in the aikido association of the University of Helsinki.
