Master Jinen relates the Life and Teachings of Dogen Zenji
Think of not Thinking. How? By leaving thinking as-it-is. Master Jinen relates the Life and Teachings of Dogen Zenji #Zen film (one hour)
Film: A Japanese Zen master (Master Jinen) relates the life and teachings of Dogen Zenji, the founder of Soto Zen in Japan some 800 years ago. This is a passionate account of the teachings taken from the Fukan Zazengi (a section of the Shobogenzo text). Though Master Jinen speaks in English, sub-titles are very helpful. This is a wonderful expression of the essence of Zen. The film runs for…

Ted Lasso: All right, guys, listen up. The things in the world originate only because of their relation to other things. That means they have no essence or existence of their own. Their true nature is that they are “śūnya" or "empty”.
Coach Beard: Emptiness isn’t their true nature, either.
Ted Lasso: Say what now?
Coach Beard: Emptiness isn’t truer than the false natures of the things that are empty. 
Ted Lasso: Now how the hell does that work? 
Coach Beard: Emptiness did not arise independently, either. Its existence is also dependent upon its relation to other things. If there was nothing to be empty, then there would be no emptiness. 
Dani Rojas [excitedly, like a little kid with a new toy]: if all things are empty, then emptiness itself must be empty, too! 
Ted Lasso: now that right there is what we call “insight beyond insight” back in Kansas 
Higgins: Er, wouldn’t that make nirvana empty as well? And if it’s empty, doesn’t that mean there’s no reason to try to achieve it? 
Jan Maas [unfiltered Dutchman]: Thoughts like those are why you’re still stuck in samsara.

there was some display gallery showing off the various logos in hypmic and the ichikuu peeps on the tl were in shambles over both of them using halos in their mc name signatures lol
#vee queued to fill the void#i understand lol this is a pretty big deal like actually lol#one fan suggested an nb logo could have angel imagery since nb was under stairway to heaven#another in a very fast paced series of tweets cried about it being potential sign of ichiro and kuukou’s bond spanning from life#but even into their deaths and beyond when they reunite in heaven (and even pointed out the meaning of stairway to heaven)#and goddamn i sure love being jacked into the hypmic hive mind i can’t believe i was just musing about kuukou and death#and then directly got food for thought LOL but ichiro!!!!!!! i wasn’t expecting ichiro lol!!!!!!#but bb has been weirdly associated with christmas aka the birth of jesus#who gave his life for humanity and i am too in shambles no way does both ichiro and kuukou have self sacrifice themes NO WAY#god i remember when the hella awesome banquet mv dropped and bat fandom banded together to dissect the video#one person commented it’s strange to see kuukou in association with catholic/christian imagery#but posted a wiki article talking about the similarities between buddha and jesus and the ideologies in those religions#*crying* i even posted about it the black crown above kuukou’s head was both catholic and buddhist and meant to be beneficial for humanity#ichiro constantly being shaken to his core by sacrifices…….. him trying to show the nation the path of hope…………#this is so much lol i love getting food for thought from random observations and drops lol

i just watched a delightful video: michael silverblatt on his love for reading. at one point he said: "what if you decided that instead of buddhist dispassion toward everything, you would develop - intentionally and otherwise - a capacity for loving as many different things as possible. what if you made this your human goal." made me think of you. :)
(what are you currently reading? do you know what you will be reading in the warmer months?)
oh this warmed my heart so much anon i feel Seen, thank you!!!!
i only have a loose idea of what i would like to read in the summer (which, to be frank, doesn't mean much for me because i will almost always be sidetracked by completely different books), but i have a stack of books from the library i'll be working through over the next month or so which includes some raymond queneau, the friend by sigrid nunez and do androids dream of electric sheep by philip k. dick! also hoping to delve into at least one of the meatier novels i haven't had the time for until recently: i might make this the summer i finally read ulysses, moby dick, or the eighth life but we will see!
otherwise current reads are:
alligator & other stories by dima alzayat
girls on fire by robin wasserman
eleanor oliphant is completely fine by gail honeyman
i, antigone by carlo gerber

If you see that Buddhism post that’s going around, virtually every single piece of it contains serious inaccuracies, so just…maybe read a book or some YouTube videos or articles if you’re curious. I can provide recs

When the Folding Screen Monkeys fight started I thought: That will probably be my new favorite boss. Love me some puzzle fights. But then it was over rather quickly and not that complicated.
So, are there any Buddhist themed puzzle games that could give me what the Folding Screen Monkeys fight failed to give?

(context: the person in the video is in the midst of making pilgrimage to Lhasa. The tradition is called kechangtou/磕长头 (ཕྱག་འཚལ/chak tsal; "head ceremony") Tibetan Buddhists will travel on foot from wherever they live to Lhasa, prostrating every three steps along the way. To aid in this, people making the pilgrimage will wear wooden blocks on their hands and (often leather) aprons over their clothes, which they will change or mend when the items get worn out. The person in the video is traveling with a friend. According to his account, he started his journey near the end of November 2023 and is nearly 90 days in.)
English added by me :)

up until I saw a catholic monk comment on a youtube video of the exorcist 3, I thought monks were basically cut off from the world in their little hidey holes.

that hypster magazine segment where they ask the cast what hobbies they are into rn where kuukou laughingly replies he’s taken up figuring out how to spice/fix his and shakku’s vegan meals to taste like meat so shakku can get a craving for meat honestly kills me anytime i think about it LOL
