Lesson 12.3: How to Meditate

Greetings, all! I know it’s been a while since the last lesson, but I’ve been thinking about something and I wanted to introduce it as the third installment of the meditation lessons. You can find the first two here and here. So let’s get to it!

First of all, “thinking” in itself is probably contradictory to what I’m about to say. And as a human being in this society, I am susceptible to thought. To filling empty space with words. To classifying things that do not need to be classified - the self as human, these words as a lesson, this community as a mystery school. I do not mean to project rightness or wrongness onto my (our) constant act of classification, but rather I want to show you how being mindful of our obsession with words can make meditation possible.

As Osho says in “Zen: The Path of Paradox,” meditation is the absence of mentation. A true state of meditation, as I said in Lesson 12.1, is presence. Rather, the absence of mental activity. Our approach to presence often involves trying to live in the present moment or making an effort to be present. In reality, this takes us further from meditation. Meditation is not and cannot be about effort. It is about the lack thereof. We call it mindfulness, but really it is being mind-less.

Many people already understand this, but the problem is that our approach to it sometimes becomes aggressive. We are so used to trying in this world (trying to sound smart, trying to be spiritual, trying to understand) that even in the case of meditation, we try not to try. We know that we must be effortless, so we make an effort to not exert effort. This is where meditation becomes difficult for some people, even me. Merely sitting and being still is an act of unlearning, or at least that’s what it feels like. It is so different from what we normally do every day that it feels awkward, so our minds begin to compensate for how uncomfortable we are. The mind is not accustomed to not always running, always comprehending the constantly-moving faces and places it’s seeing and devising thoughts or stories around these sights. The mind is not used to being still. So it may try to run even faster.

The key is: allow it.

If you try not to think, you are not meditating. If you are thinking, you are not meditating. I know it sounds like a paradox, but there is a middle ground where your spirit truly lies, where God is: just be.

Cambodia is one of the most bombed countries in the history of mankind, and has the largest amputee population in the world.

That’s why Purple Buddha Project handcrafts jewelry made by upcycling weapons of conflict from Cambodia such as bullets, bombshells, and other miscellaneous accessories of war through Fair trade Cambodian Cooperatives.

The purchase of each jewelry piece contributes to three pounds of rice for children at schools in need in Cambodia. 🇰🇭 🍚

Oh I’m an asshole.

So today pulling into Stop and Shop, this lady cut me off and nearly drove into me, and then, when I tried to pass her, she swung to the right and nearly hit me again, and then flipped me off.

So somebody is having a bad day and taking it out on me. That’s fine. It’s harmless, and I don’t know what’s going on in this woman’s life. I’ll give her the benefit of the doubt she’s not just a piece of shit and is just having a bad day.

But then I park and she follows me, and gets out of the car and starts swearing at me and getting in my face.

Now I go from “indifferent” to “I’m gonna fuck with this woman’s head.” Now I would say I’m a gentleman of size, and in all black and bemohawked I probably look spookier than I actually am, so props to this lady for getting in my face. Now of course I’m not going to hit her, or even threaten violence. That’s shitty. Nobody should get threatened with violence.

Instead, I take a step back, narrowing my eyes like I’m studying her face really closely, and then I touch one of the several piece of “occulty” jewelry I’m wearing (none of which, by the way, are magicked in any way at all). Then I mumble some nonsense under my breath, and then make the fig gesture and the horns at her.

She stops, wide-eyed.

“WHAT THE HELL DID YOU JUST DO TO ME?”

I chuckled, and shake my head. “Nothing at all.” I say in a not-terrible convincing voice. “But every time something bad happens to you today, you’re gonna be thinking of me.”

Then I winked at her, and walked away.

Jack’s Mother Is Rebuking You

In the video, his mum said at 6:25:

“He [Jack] didn’t get out.. maybe someone else will”.

But the drama-seekers who have no personal stake in any of this want to KEEP SAYING THE MASTER’S NAME OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER.  Your fucking obsession with watching the drama unfold and binging the episodes is in the very face of Jack’s mother!

EDUCATE THE LIVING SO THEY WILL NOT END UP IN THIS SITUATION.

^^ this is what Jack’s mother wants.  

Stop making it about YOU and YOUR morbid fascination.

[revengeofthebears-deactivated20]

if u have something to say, please reblog it openly where everyone can see it.  Not in a reply or a secret DM.

I am using this opportunity to educate others that being a SLAVE is a bad thing, that Gay Men need to rise up and be Strong Independent Men, do not serve others, do not put plastic in your body, love your body for what you have, form meaningful relationships that are NOT based in sex, do not give control of yourself to others.

THAT is what I am doing.  What these other ppl are doing saying the master’s name again and again and again and again saying it as if to use up the entire comment space saying that word/name as many times as possible, I dont  know wtf YOU think you are doing.  But it’s not education that’s quite clear.  You are teaching vengeance, and vengeance on someone who doesn’t even matter in the least.  That person is probably monitoring all this with a PUP under the table a big wood seeing his name repeated so much.

what fucking idiots, you r giving it exactly what it wants: more attention and more mirror time.  I dont believe many of you actually care about Jack or men in his situation.  For you it’s just a netflix binge you cant get enough of, rubbernecking all down the road to see the devastation.

be ashamed.  I know…… drama queens (<– this actually totally fits!) ur not that good at shame.  maybe learn.

Man found the stoplight cameras were activated during yellow lights and decided to cut the wires of it.

[loremerchant]

Florida Man: Chaotic evil. New York Man: Chaotic good.

[timelessblasphemy]

Holy shit. Nah dude look up the entire story, it’s INSANE.

The dude got arrested once before this for using a painter’s extension rod to point the stoplight cameras into the sky instead of cutting the wires. He didn’t cut the wires until AFTER he got out after being arrested the first time–which he did after posting facebook videos that prove that the stoplights are intentionally rigged to trick drivers into citations–the yellow lights at intersections with cameras only last THREE SECONDS, as opposed to the five seconds they last at other stoplights without cameras in the same county.

When he cut the camera cords, he reported his deeds to the news -himself,- and then politicians pressured the local police force into arresting him. The local police and sheriff deputies actually SUPPORT him for his actions because the lights have been killing innocent people! During his most recent arrest, one of the Sheriff’s Deputies actually -offered to bail him out-. When he got home again after these incidents, there was a surveillance camera planted at his house BY THE GOVERNMENT to watch him! His reaction to being surveilled? He painted over the camera in America’s flat out fucking ballsiest “fuck you” to the gubmint I’ve ever heard of. And it gets EVEN CRAZIER. After painting over the camera, suddenly this guy–his name is Stephen Ruth by the way–started GETTING ATTEMPTS ON HIS LIFE. He reports that a car intentionally tried to hit him in a head-on collision, and after talking about the car to his neighbors, they confirmed that the car in question (Or at least, one that was visibly identical, its occupants included) had been staking out his house! Somebody was legitimately trying to MURDER HIM over his discovery and his actions!

As a final insult to injury, Ruth pointed out that the VAST majority of the cameras were found SPECIFICALLY in lower-to-middle-class neighborhoods. As well, the victims of these rigged stoplights tried to go to the local news station to talk about the deaths of their family members that occurred from the rigging. Aaaand… The local station, “News12″, never aired their interviews. Remember how I said that, after cutting the cables and calling the local news station, Ruth was arrested because of pressure from politicians? Get this: News12 is actually owned by CableVision, who PROVIDES INTERNET SERVICE TO THE CAMERAS.  Whereas mister Ruth was only trying to help people and save lives, he’s been caught up in a full-blown fucking government conspiracy that’s out for his blood. This guy isn’t Robin Hood, he makes Robin Hood look like a -CHUMP-.
