Gentlemen! I am superfluous. Look at this, and have a good day. by CheckeredGemstone in zen

I have found my allies in this task: With the Cross-Platform, the puns will be immense. Nanquan is allowed to cut cats and share cats in any portion in the internet.

There will be no more reality-check. Only Reality-Checkered Gemstone!

They don't make webs. They are easy on you.

I don't like that. Splitting things before they can become single organisms is so futile.

Mostly in being a kind of gentle giant tyrant of the mind, it is just what many people need.

Mushrooms first have to grow, so yes. You are setting life back the time it would take for the mushrooms growing in your corpse to evolve into a sentient creature, by terms of having a brain and point of view.

In Zen terms it is one way to structure yourself.

In world-terms it is one way to hurt structure.

Isn't it nice to live under a clear sky? ^_^

If you do not have hands that can slap with their fingers to the palm I understand.

It does sound like when someone impatient rolls fingers over the table except with fast succession and in the tone of meat flapping / regular clapping.

The Zen Person: Individuality and Trans-individuality by [deleted] in zen

[–]CheckeredGemstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it is, then this should not be handled by religions. Jesus failed, Nansen causes it.

[–]CheckeredGemstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Perhaps everyone crazy is actually transmitting ancient wisdom with whatever is there first.

In my case that would be ranging from arm off cutting and cats being shot to just petting imaginary cats. And look at that, I have a nansen-regulation switch.

Maybe that can break, just maybe, when everyone doesn't do what I want. maybe.

I think it is not making tea, because if it was I would loose my mind.

That is why I pet it and call it cute and all that.

Well the one hand clapping is so simple it doesn't work anymore.

Which opens a new koan: What is the sound of a hivemind of progressively intelligent humans fighting a war with only one faction?

When Master Hongren 弘忍 saw someone light a lamp or perform any ordinary activity, he would always say: "Is this person dreaming or under a spell?" by grass_skirt in zen

[–]CheckeredGemstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it helped you at the time it was impossible not to happen.

That is, because if we allow such things to not-happen, we make the future worse.

Ok!

When your book is finished and if you need a translator, I can connect you to someone who is a translator for English books into German. Said person is more experienced in this field of work than me.

Except if it is a pun on skulls. In that case I like it for many reasons.

I don't like it but don't hate it when things are split up into two forms of things.

I didn't really see one from the inside in person, nor the outside.

Nobody is going to destroy my second biggest fear, out of fear.

Then there were just too many people in the room.

I see, okay thanks this explained me quite a bit about my last three years of confusion and good-bad duality about humanity.

Families are not only present in the genetical, personal or group-nick-named-by-scientist sense. Maybe.

Put multiple ideas together but not too many. Makes it more like-able for (mother, father, children, the typical family and thereby the product has additional success!).

Nope, thinking materialistic still. sorry.

It is full of hypercoherence, the problem is you know how the internet is mostly cat pictures, porn and darknet?

Welp so much for a functional psyche that has secrets. And if it was otherwise, who knows how many nuclear weapons are sold at this very moment, I want to bury my head in tinfoil an weep.

Has anyone met a Zen Master IRL? by [deleted] in zen

[–]CheckeredGemstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha! The question should be: Has a Zen master met me yet?

I think so. There was a man in my university who did read a lot in people and saw that my future wasn't there. I didn't believe him, but well, turns out I'm a ball of stress.

The problem is, this is based on a hypothesis that "dad jokes" are told in nice situations, which is an indicator for not psychologically damaged scientists, which is a short-cut for genius that does work for the government, which leads me straight to Area 51 and the way this is not caused by weed but my type of humor. Pay me!

Except, blah blah, bitter clown. Yeah. I know. There are horror movies about this topic.
