“The mind is vast and creative. Teachings can be helpful, but the way [of Zen] is still guided by experiment.” - Robert Aitken This is why centralized authority is never sufficient and should be minimized in the grand scheme of things. #zen #buddhism #philosohy

Present 'Peace and Quiet' Right after the lyrics came pouring out, I thought something like 'that was cathartic but I could never release that". Upon further reflection, I realized that is exactly why I should release it. I have a suspicion that most relationships of a deep nature have to go through periods of strife. Track on Wavlake:

“O Kalamas, do not be satisfied with hearsay or tradition, or any teachings, however they may come to you. Only when you know in yourself when things are wholesome, blameless, commended by the wise, and when adopted and practiced lead to welfare and happiness, should you practice them.” - Gautama Buddha in the Kalama Sutra Stepping stones along the path of a theory linking Buddhism and Bitcoin. Curious if this resonates with anyone else? #buddhism #philosophy #decentralization

What really appeals to me about Nostr is that regardless of interactions, or current events, messages live on like time capsules. Curious if this was the appeal for others? #TimeCapsuleTech #grownostr #plebchain #introductions

Truth is fundamentally scarce but infinitely divisible

@Sourcenode reminded me of this glorious scene from Little Buddha with Keanu Reeves playing Buddha realizing enlightenment. Many great metaphors for FUD! And at the end he touches grass 🤣

Recently it dawned on me how fascinating the intersection of Buddhism and Bitcoin is. I’ve been practicing Buddhism since my teens. ‘Practicing bitcoin’ for a while now I can’t help but start to notice. I’ll be sharing these connections here on NOSTR - it feels like the right place. My thought this morning - riding out the stormy waves of price & politics reminds me of sitting through long retreats feeling like I’m holding on for dear life through the (often illusory) difficulties.

Hello! This is my first post. I hope to share in the wonders of permissionless decentralization, joy of life, and witness to the wildness. My passions include Buddhism, making music, and Mother Nature. I am intrigued by this place so far :) #introductions
