“Now these next few months might be tricky. But that’s just because we’re going through our dark forest. Fairy tales do not start nor do they end in the dark forest. That son of a gun always shows up smack dab in the middle of a story. But it will all work out. Now it may not work out how you think it will or how you hope it does, but believe me: It will all work out, exactly as it’s supposed to.”

“When there is no mind, you are in yoga; when there is mind you are not in yoga. So you may do all the postures, but if the mind goes on functioning, if you go on thinking, you are not in yoga. Yoga is the state of no-mind. If you can be without the mind without doing any posture, you have become a perfect yogi. It has happened to many without doing any postures, and it has not happened to many who have been doing postures for many lives.”

— Osho

A Fitbit For White Sharks: The Blubber Burrito!

Eat your heart out, white sharks fans: White shark feeding behavior may be wrapped in mystery—but the science to solve it is wrapped in blubber! After being ingested, special tags we’re calling “Fitbits for Sharks” record the shark’s swimming and feeding behaviors from within the belly of the beast.

After a few days to about a month, the tag is regurgitated with other indigestible bits, at which point our researchers swoop in to recover the tag to study its contents. These data will help shark scientists understand more about the day in the life of these mega-fish as they swim along the Californian coast and the Farallon Islands out to Hawaii via the White Shark Cafe. 

Check out what we’ve learned!

Important note: The blubber used in this research is collected with scientific permits from previously deceased animals. No animals were harmed in these studies.

“Life is purposeless. Don’t be shocked. The whole idea of purpose is wrong – it comes out of greed. Life is a sheer joy, a playfulness, a fun, a laughter, for no purpose at all. Life is its own end, it has no other end. The moment you understand it, you have understood what meditation is all about. It is living your life joyously, playfully, totally, and with no purpose at the end, with no purpose in view, no purpose there at all. Just like small children playing on the sea beach, collecting seashells and coloured stones—for what purpose? There is no purpose at all.”

“Around us, life bursts with miracles—a glass of water, a ray of sunshine, a leaf, a caterpillar, a flower, laughter, raindrops. If you live in awareness, it is easy to see miracles everywhere. Each human being is a multiplicity of miracles. Eyes that see thousands of colours, shapes, and forms; ears that hear a bee flying or a thunderclap; a brain that ponders a speck of dust as easily as the entire cosmos; a heart that beats in rhythm with the heartbeat of all beings. When we are tired and feel discouraged by life’s daily struggles, we may not notice these miracles, but they are always there.”

— Thich Nhat Hanh
