Just gave myself a paper cut from a chocolate wrapper #samsara

Living the dream, watching our clothes go round the cycle of #samsara in a #Tainan laundromat.

Can the world exist without war, discrimination, famine, etc? No. Humans have been facing this issues ever since the existence of human. Though this world is imperfect we are attached to it. We are reborn into this world countless life time and we all did something unwholesome in many of these life time to each other. We love this world yet we hate it too. #samsara

@TNichol When I was working (retired now) I detested work for 24 of the 40+ that I worked because the work never went anywhere except aggravation for me and $ to my employer. After retirement from extreme hours and after eliminating my hatred, I had time to come to some understanding of reasons. Clarity. Meaning. And the great bottom line of #samsara. Good luck in the future.

People spend huge time grappling, activity in expense of activity, reaping frustration in its continuation, the core of samsara, the propulsion that impels on and on going nowhere but moving, desperate to mine meaning from meaninglessness, vainly attempting pacification for distress when the answer, the antidote, is in the stillness difficult to attain amid the pedaling pedaling pedaling that consumes the mind and preoccupies the body with more activity instead of quiet, stillness. #samsara

We have sense to realize that problems have reasons and seek them out to cure ignorance. But we are blinded by pain that pulls us back into the maw of unreason and there stew in renewed ignorance, sure that it must be real if it hurts so much.

The end is not so far off if we know it as the beginning. And if the beginning is the end, we are already there but haven’t noticed yet. That is the problem: the middle that doesn’t exist but that engulfs us anyway.

More questions than answers. A start long, long ago. Possibilities come and go. Then one sticks. And another and another. At first, questions matter more than answers because questions are from within. It is only when answers are also from within that they begin to matter.

#samsara #monism #Advaita

Inevitably, pride is engendered by attachment. Just as inevitably, but beyond the vision of the damned—until it is too late—pride is mocked. Mocked by death.

#TGIF, and already evening here in Europe. Time to watch:

Related question: any good #bluray shops in the EU? Preferably 4K and English menus and packaging. My Koyaanisqatsi disk from the UK is German speaking. #Samsara and Baraka are also German there.

Oh my!
I don’t believe in samsara.
If I did, what “nirvana” could there be?

When I just rest
within empty lucidity,
the false cavern of all things of samsara and nirvana implodes,
and everything dawns as the ornamentation of ultimate reality.

Doch die Natur hat uns auch mit einem Geist und den Fähigkeiten ausgestattet, die Beschränkungsaspekte und dem daraus folgenden ewigen Leid zu überwinden! Nur kaum jemand nutzt sie, da sie nicht so offensichtlich sind wie #Samsara.
Samsara ist jedoch auch nichts schlechtes. Es ist zusammen mit dem oft im Westen falsch verstandenen #Nirwana ein Dipol, der aus der Leerheit (nicht zu verwechseln mit dem "Nichts") erwächst in einem ständigen Auf und Ab. 3

Wir alle sind #Buddha oder haben die "Buddha-Natur", uns selbst zu erlösen von Ego, Materialismuskreisläufen, Habenwollen (Pleonexie), sprich: dem Leiden auf Erden. Auch wenn 99% das nicht verstehen durch die enge Bindung von Samsara an das eigene Sein.
Die Natur und die #Evolution hat uns zwar mit dem Ego und dem #Samsara ausgestattet, um besser zu überleben, aber daraus ergeben sich vor allem für den modernen Menschen unendliche Leidenskreisläufe mit illusionärem materialistischem #Glück. 2

Anger arises from delusion and binds us to samsara, this is the nature of human experience.

Politics is a vehicle for paroxysms of anger, which turn inward and reverberate as they spread.

Anger is recursive. Anger begets anger.

It's like when two dogs are barking at something outside the window and suddenly start fighting each other.

It looks as if #history is repeating itself....#Italy’s new prime minister, Giorgia #Meloni, has inspired a surge of far-right threats and attacks against #journalists and critics.
