“After a bitter quarrel, some resentment must remain.
What can one do about it?
Therefore the sage keeps his half of the bargain
But does not exact his due.
A man of Virtue performs his part,
But a man without Virtue requires others to fulfill their obligations.
The Tao of heaven is impartial.
It stays with good men all the time.” ~ Lao Tzu

“By and by, there will be a great awakening; then we will know that this is all a great dream. All the while, the fools think they are awake, appearing to understand things, calling this man ruler and that man herdsman. How stupid! You are dreaming. When I say you are dreaming, I am dreaming too. These words may sound like double-talk. Yet after ten thousand generations, we will meet a great sage who can explain all this. Or it may happen any time now.” ~ Chuang Tzu

Thought can never be free. Your thoughts are not ‘yours’. They come from the past. They are as old as the hills.

Awesome take. If you know you know #nostr

Lone wolf?

I Am All by J. Krishnamurti I am the blue firmament and the black cloud,
I am the waterfall and the sound thereof,
I am the graven image and the stone by the wayside,
I am the rose and the falling petals thereof,
I am the flower of the field and the sacred lotus,
I am the sanctified waters and the still pool,
I am the tree that towereth among the mountains
And the blade of grass in the peaceful lane,
I am the tender spring leaf and the evergreen foliage.

I am the barbarian and the sage,
I am the impious and the pious,
I am the ungodly and the godly,
I am the harlot and the virgin,
I am the liberated and the man of time,
I am the the indestructible and the destructible,
I am the renunciation and the proud possessor.
I am all
few know me.

I am neither This nor That,
I am neither detached nor attached,
I am neither heaven nor hell — few know me —
I am neither philosophies nor creeds,
I am neither the Guru nor the disciple.
O friend,
I contain all.

I am clear as the mountain stream,
Simple as the new spring leaf.

Happy are they
That meet with me.

Sam is one of the greats. “Don’t you know this is coming? Don’t you know there’s going to come a day when you’ll be sick or someone close to you will die and you’ll look back on the kinds of things that captured your attention, and you’ll think, what was I doing?” ~ Sam Harris

Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me. “Assaulting” someone’s ego is no different than making fun of their imaginary friend. Of course one shouldn’t be a jerk about it, but we have to face facts. You are nothing.

Reminder to parents: Authority is evil.

Weird how the US House of 𝘙𝘦𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘴 doesn’t use LLMs to distill the views of the people whom they supposedly represent.

“Just do what needs to be done. Never take advantage of power.” - Lao Tzu

What I see in #nostr, which has been lost in every other social network, is the simple ability for humans to have a dialogue. In this clip, David Bohm speaks about the incoherence in human thought and the need to suspend assumptions in order to engage in dialogue.
