[2025/09/27, 3:22:06] James: There’s some drunken university boys been screaming like idiots for the last 30 min near me in the park
[2025/09/27, 3:22:11] James: It’s like 3:20
[2025/09/27, 3:22:18] James: Hope they stop soon
[2025/09/27, 3:22:25] James: Nothing to be done
[2025/09/27, 3:22:31] James: I was one of them once
[2025/09/27, 3:22:34] James: Maybe worse
[2025/09/27, 3:22:40] James: They’re just having fun
[2025/09/27, 3:22:48] James: Not a threat
[2025/09/27, 3:23:08] James: Not like where I came from
[2025/09/27, 3:23:14] James: Japan is nice like that
[2025/09/27, 3:23:27] James: But I do wish they would tire themselves out already and go home
[2025/09/27, 3:23:32] James: No big deal though
[2025/09/27, 8:49:34] James: .
[2025/09/27, 8:49:41] James: Feeling a bit dissolution-y today
[2025/09/27, 8:49:47] James: And round it goes
[2025/09/27, 8:50:13] James: The sutta about sariputta awakening, going through the jhana and seeing they are impermanent and not to be clung to
[2025/09/27, 8:50:19] James: Everything is conditioned
[2025/09/27, 9:58:12] James: .
[2025/09/27, 9:58:32] James: It’s pretty hard not to start clinging to delicious ice creams when you’re hot and riding a bike
[2025/09/27, 9:58:40] James: I guess this is why people go live in a hut
[2025/09/27, 9:58:52] James: Phasic dopamine will always come into play
[2025/09/27, 10:50:37] James: .
[2025/09/27, 10:50:44] James: Let your pleasures and joys be like the wind
[2025/09/27, 10:50:51] James: You can’t catch the wind in a container
[2025/09/27, 10:50:59] James: You have to let it flow through and leave
[2025/09/27, 10:51:11] James: Through leaving the good you become able to release the bad
[2025/09/27, 10:51:15] James: Dvar is global
[2025/09/27, 10:51:18] James: Train on the good
[2025/09/27, 10:51:27] James: And the wind feels better if it’s not stagnant and stale
[2025/09/27, 11:33:53] James: .
[2025/09/27, 11:34:00] James: Sutta where he teaches the accountant
[2025/09/27, 11:34:06] James: About the path of the bhikku
[2025/09/27, 11:34:10] James: How it happens now:
[2025/09/27, 11:34:13] James: We get hooked
[2025/09/27, 11:34:21] James: We stop the behaviours
[2025/09/27, 11:34:25] James: We cultivate new ones
[2025/09/27, 11:34:29] James: The two paths conflict
[2025/09/27, 11:34:41] James: We program in new algos
[2025/09/27, 11:34:51] James: And then nibbana rocks up and sets them in place
[2025/09/27, 11:35:01] James: That’s the reason for the order of progression
[2025/09/27, 11:42:00] James: .
[2025/09/27, 11:42:10] James: So what I need to do now is line up the next code
[2025/09/27, 11:42:35] James: That is a cool looking stinkbug
[2025/09/27, 12:01:01] James: .
[2025/09/27, 12:01:02] James: Huh
[2025/09/27, 12:01:09] James: I never even enjoyed smoking with the dogman
[2025/09/27, 12:01:22] James: The guy who accused me of trying to kill his dog when I saved its life
[2025/09/27, 12:01:30] James: I just craved the dopamine from the weed
[2025/09/27, 12:01:41] James: But he planted seeds of hate in my mind
[2025/09/27, 12:01:45] James: What a horrible man
[2025/09/27, 12:01:48] James: Shame
[2025/09/27, 12:01:51] James: He suffers
[2025/09/27, 12:01:54] James: He is blind
[2025/09/27, 12:01:56] James: Let’s ride
[2025/09/27, 14:50:41] James: .
[2025/09/27, 14:50:47] James: Well that was fun
[2025/09/27, 14:51:04] James: Even with my 100kg touring setup I’m faster than most of the Sunday cyclists on their road bikes.
[2025/09/27, 14:51:13] James: Wasn’t trying! Honest!
[2025/09/27, 14:51:29] James: Shouldn’t overtake me on a hill though and expect to be able to keep up
[2025/09/27, 14:51:49] James: Eerr…
[2025/09/27, 14:51:52] James: Conditioning!
[2025/09/27, 14:52:01] James: I’ll get old and it will change.
[2025/09/27, 14:52:15] James: Feel a bit bad for him but I honestly didn’t try. I was just faster…
[2025/09/27, 15:10:08] James: .
[2025/09/27, 15:10:17] James: That minor bit of competition has triggered a loop
[2025/09/27, 15:10:20] James: Wanting more
[2025/09/27, 15:10:25] James: Craving. Carving.
[2025/09/27, 15:10:32] James: Time to drop it
[2025/09/27, 15:10:35] James: It doesn’t feel nice
[2025/09/27, 15:10:38] James: It’s that simple
[2025/09/27, 15:27:12] James: .
[2025/09/27, 15:27:16] James: All these bad drivers
[2025/09/27, 15:27:23] James: Getting angry is meaningless
[2025/09/27, 15:27:38] James: They’re already gone and have no idea what they’ve done anyway
[2025/09/27, 15:27:40] James: Drop it
[2025/09/27, 16:27:08] James: .
[2025/09/27, 16:27:15] James: Tigers should not be kept in cages
[2025/09/27, 16:27:21] James: And lions should be allowed to roar
[2025/09/27, 20:04:03] James: .
[2025/09/27, 20:04:13] James: Old guy told me I couldn’t camp in the beach park
[2025/09/27, 20:04:23] James: Initial response on a physiological level was fight
[2025/09/27, 20:04:58] James: I disnt though. The body and mind moved that way momentarily and then I asked him a question while thinking
[2025/09/27, 20:05:14] James: Then I told him I checked the laws and beaches and rivers were ok; but was this one not?
[2025/09/27, 20:05:26] James: He immediately dropped his line of conversation
[2025/09/27, 20:05:39] James: He had to poke me not to leave littler behind though, of course
[2025/09/27, 20:05:40] James: Ha
[2025/09/27, 20:05:55] James: I’m one of those that picks the litter up, Mr Man.
[2025/09/27, 20:15:48] James: .
[2025/09/27, 20:15:49] James: Haha
[2025/09/27, 20:16:00] James: I seem to have taken it upon myself to save the neurodivergent folks
[2025/09/27, 20:16:15] James: A priest for the priests, as I kept repeating during the awakening
[2025/09/27, 20:16:20] James: It’s effortless
[2025/09/27, 20:16:22] James: It’s fun
[2025/09/27, 20:16:28] James: It’s a good intention
[2025/09/27, 20:16:33] James: Let it grow
[2025/09/27, 20:16:41] James: The priests need a priest
[2025/09/27, 20:17:00] James: But they don’t need dogma
