J.Rubenis His and Her

esam izgājuši cauri vairākiem pieredzes lokiem, krituši, sasitušies un varbūt nedaudz pamodušies dzīves sarežģītībai vai... vienkāršībai, tā vairs nedomājam.
Gadu gaitā esmu sapratis, ka attiecības ir daudz plašāks un sarežģītāks esības apgabals, nekā gribētos teologiem, psihologiem, biologiem un pašiem attiecību partneriem.
Lai godīgi un jēgpilni risinātu attiecību jautājumus, mūsdienās nepieciešama iekļaujoša, integrāla pieeja. Mēs – dažādu jomu labāki vai sliktāki profesionāļi − varam ietiepīgi palikt tikai pie savām pieejām, taču tad var gadīties, ka mūsu padomi drīz vairs nevienam nebūs vajadzīgi. Un nevis tāpēc, ka cilvēki būtu kļuvuši stulbi un aprobežoti, bet tāpēc, ka viņi nereti jūt – mūsu ieskati ir vienpusīgi, tajos nav iekļauti visi aspekti, līdz ar to tie traucē saredzēt kopīgo dzīves bildi. Ja sniedzam labi gribētas, bet vienpusīgas atbildes, tām parasti ir blaknes, kuras vienā jomā palīdz, taču vienlaikus kādā citā jomā var situāciju vēl vairāk sarežģīt." Juris Rubenis

Kā jauna! Tikai stāvējusi grāmatu plauktā.

On love, relationships, and sex, almost everyone writes. Can you imagine any of the glossy "lifestyle" magazines daring to ignore these topics? It seems everything should be clear by now. And yet, perhaps precisely because of this, there is a great deal of misunderstanding, foolishness, and misconceptions in this area. What are our relationships? What do they really mean? What could they mean? These seem like foolish questions in the first part of life because everything seems completely clear to us then. However, after going through several cycles of experience, falling, getting hurt, and perhaps waking up a bit to the complexity or... simplicity of life, we no longer think that way.

Over the years, I've realized that relationships are a much broader and more complex area of existence than theologians, psychologists, biologists, and the relationship partners themselves would like.

To address relationship issues honestly and meaningfully, an inclusive, integral approach is needed nowadays. We – better or worse professionals from various fields – can stubbornly stick only to our approaches, but then it might happen that our advice will soon no longer be needed by anyone. And not because people have become stupid and narrow-minded, but because they often feel that our insights are one-sided, not including all aspects, thus hindering the ability to see the overall picture of life. If we provide well-intentioned but one-sided answers, they usually have side effects that help in one area but can further complicate the situation in another area." Juris Rubenis
