Na paresaṃ vilomāni na paresaṃ katākataṃ,attano 'va avekkheyya katāni akatāni ca.
"Let not one seek others' faults, things left done and undone by others, but consider one's own deeds—those done and left undone." - Dhammapada, Verse 50
In other words: Don't be so worried about what other people are doing or not doing (within reason), but let your focus instead be on your own practice and if you're doing it sincerely and diligently and seeing good results.
Obviously this is different from paying attention to events which have an impact on yourself and others. This is about getting lost in the faults of others and spending time criticizing them which is a waste of your time, effort, and attention.
ANIME FLOWERS
I feel most connected to the air element.
I feel so alive when surrounded by blowing winds, I can get lost in a gentle breeze, I worship at the altar of thunderstorms, I feel deep peace in ordinary breathing.
I love cloud watching and sky gazing. I frequently dream of flying and floating.
Bringing tea and treats to the witch hangout tonight. We're going to talk skills we have, skills we wish to work on, and what we've been up to lately in our practice. Should be a good time :)
“The Greek Buddhists came to imagine Gotama as Apollo, the god of wisdom, law, and healing, and they represented him in statues and bas-reliefs as a lithe, sensitive, androgynous figure in flowing Greek robes.” — Socrates, the Buddha, and Us
“Local artists drew upon the area’s Greek legacy to create Buddhist images. This bodhisattva’s wavy hair, bridgeless nose, and naturalistic lips resemble those of a sculpted Apollo.” — X
“The Greeks had always represented their gods in human form, so as Buddhism became popular in the Indo-Greek region to the north west of India, it was not long before human images of the Buddha emerged. Early Gandharan Buddha images were based on the Greek god Apollo.” — X
oh Apollon as the Buddha/an archetype for a Buddha, how i adore you. this association with enlightenment and wisdom transcends history and makes perfect sense, given what You embody! may this association continue to be carried forward
Praise Ares; God of manhood and masculinity, of conflict and rebellion, of strength and courage.
Praise Ares, God of all who cower, God of the oppressed and God of the ups and downs of life.
Praise Ares, father, son, and lover. Kind, loving Ares, blood-soaked and no less important for it.
I have been thinking recently of the various facets of Ares. He is so much more than a God who fights; he is who teaches us to set our armor aside and dance, he who teaches us that the most masculine thing one can do is not just to cause harm, but to love fiercely; to protect, to nurture. What is more masculine than love, especially to love so strongly that one would fight for it? To love a person, to love an ideal, to love a belief so dearly that it becomes your guiding star as you move through the conflicts and anger and hardships of life? I don't see much love for Ares as the God of cowards, either. God of all who flee, God of those who are scared to fight... and God of courage, of fighting while scared. Ares is not a God who has no fear; he delights in it. He dances with it. He tells us that fear is how we live, that fear and love and anger and joy and conflict and peace -- all of these are beautifully, beautifully human. It is proof we are alive.
Praise Ares.
Lord Ares

When you sit down to meditate, something shocking happens: Your mind is full of thoughts. It's full of all kinds of crap. Have you noticed that? Then you're a good meditator.
