#Buddha Was a good ol' boy by Brad Warner
"All life is not joy."
A country song about Buddha... Brad was originally a punk bass player... I think he sang some psychedelic music in the 90s. though he has received dharma transmission from Gudō Wafu Nishijima

microwave karma.
Watching a documentary on capitalism relationship to mindfulness... and I keep thinking it is like using psychology with out any consideration of the oath that therapist take. If you remove psychology from healing you have a ability to manipulate people towards the outcome without any consideration of how they would behave if they knew what you were doing.
Mindfulness without compassion doesnt seem very much like mindfulness.

Here's a new blog article about my visit to this progressive temple in my Japanese hometown, Oiso.
A beautiful coexistence of tradition and adaptation/ progression.

Today is the Day of the Great Budda (大仏の日) in Japan.
On 9 April, 752AD, the Great Buddha of Nara was consecrated by inserting/ drawing his eyes (開眼供養).

In Japan, today (8 April) is "Kanbutsue" (かんぶつえ; 灌仏会) or commonly known as "Hanamatsuri" (はなまつり; the Festival of Flowers").
It is the day to celebrate the birth of the Buddha. The timing of this celebration differs, depending on the country, but it is celebrated on this day in Japan.
Amacha (あまちゃ; 甘茶), a Japanese herbal tea, is poured over a statue of the Buddha in this ceremony.

“How easy is it to see your brother’s faults; how hard is it to face your own. You mock his; but yours you hide. Dwelling on your brother’s faults multiplies your own.”

@assembledatoms To quote my cat, "I hate change. Change is...different!" In my old age, I've come to view life like crossing a stream, stepping from stone to stone. Sometimes I misstep and get wet. OK, so much for my inner Buddha! 😆

I'm a geek with comodore64 that wants to #homestead. Eternal #optimist 💫
I believe we are the caretakers of the future. We can achieve that by practicing #minimalism, #localism, and emancipate from consumerism and tackle the problems of cold, heat, illness, injury, hunger, and thirst.
I like to day dream about #philosophy, #zen, and the #buddha.

Do it's been quite a week!
Time for the obligatory #introduction post, I guess.
I'm Tsykoduk (aka Greg) - I still have a hard time believing that someone decided to pay me to play with computers 30 years ago.
