We&#039;ve all experienced it. It&#039;s so common that we can forget that it&#039;s something special. It happens all over the world. All the time. It&#039;s possibly the most important factor in world history. And yet we can easily overlook it.<\/p>\n<p>We&#039;re talking about something very simple: the joy of doing something for others.<\/p>\n<p>In his very special book, <em>The Empathic Civilization<\/em>, futurist Jeremy Rifkin retells world history in a new way: as a movement toward gradually increasing empathy. Towards mutual kindness and togetherness.<\/p>\n<p>It is a complex movement. Which does not go in a straight line. World history is also full of horror, of infinite amounts of suffering.<br \/>\nYet, as Rifkin describes it, it is also an unfolding of the heart&#039;s possibilities.<\/p>\n<p>A movement that we may now be able to accelerate.<br \/>\nAs humanity, we may be on the threshold of an empathetic leap. A necessary empathetic leap.<\/p>\n<p>This little guide follows and examines the empathetic act of doing something for others in everyday life, and points to the deep joy that lies as a possibility in the small self-neglects of everyday life.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Photo: Hanneli<br \/>\nLayout: Mikkel Strandbygaard<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":38721,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":[230],"focus":[234,211],"person":[337],"practice_category":[143,407],"position":[193],"varighed-kategori":[172],"class_list":["post-38309","exercise","type-exercise","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","focus-grounding-og-jordforbindelse","focus-hara","person-peter-hoeeg","format-lydfil","practice_category-guidede-meditationer","practice_category-vaagen-i-verden","position-siddende","varighed-kategori-0-10-minutter"],"varighed":"9","embedded_audio":"<div id=\"buzzsprout-player-18387070\"><\/div><script src=\"https:\/\/www.buzzsprout.com\/2018767\/episodes\/18387070-12-januarpraksis-nar-verden-vagner-peter-hoeg.js?container_id=buzzsprout-player-18387070&player=small\" type=\"text\/javascript\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>","embedded_video":"","hide_featured_image_on_post":"1","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kontemplation.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exercise\/38309","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kontemplation.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exercise"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kontemplation.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/exercise"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kontemplation.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=38309"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/www.kontemplation.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exercise\/38309\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":39805,"href":"https:\/\/www.kontemplation.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exercise\/38309\/revisions\/39805"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kontemplation.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/38721"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kontemplation.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=38309"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"focus","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kontemplation.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/focus?post=38309"},{"taxonomy":"person","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kontemplation.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/person?post=38309"},{"taxonomy":"format","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kontemplation.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/format?post=38309"},{"taxonomy":"practice_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kontemplation.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/practice_category?post=38309"},{"taxonomy":"position","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kontemplation.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/position?post=38309"},{"taxonomy":"varighed-kategori","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kontemplation.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/varighed-kategori?post=38309"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
