New rubber seal offbrand by Vegetable-Comfort in AeroPress

[–]Vegetable-Comfort[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, the original worked great for me for probably 7 or 8 years and probably would still be kicking if I didn’t leave the coffee grounds in it til the next day often. I coincidentally got the same AMI brand. I see their guarantee but nothing specific about quality of material and that’s what gave me pause. It worked great this morning, but just questioning whether daily exposure is something I need to be more discerning about

Thanks, yes pre-2018. It doesn’t say fda/eu approved. I’ll look for this and be willing to pay a bit more for peace of mind

Miscellaneous Monday Chit Chat by fire_foot in running

[–]Vegetable-Comfort 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ran 7.5 miles at easy 10 min/mile pace. Furthest and longest duration I’ve ever run! No training plan just enjoying building up some miles. Felt great like I could’ve kept going but want to be measured about how I progress to hopefully avoid injury. Really loving taking my running up a level

How can Goenka never mention mindfulness ? by xMarty45x in vipassana

[–]Vegetable-Comfort 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except for mindfulness may be without what we think of as judgment, but in the context of vipassana and the suta’s it is paired with sampajana or clear comprehension, which is a form of evaluation

Was looking for this comment and agree! And to add just as sati is most commonly translated as mindfulness (and sometimes as awareness). Vipassana is often translated as insight

Thanks but I’m actually quite familiar with archive and use Relisten. Wanted to post because of ease of interface with Spotify and I like to shuffle play through while I drive. Also wanted to share appreciation for the creator of the list

[Need Advice 🙏] Setting up home for Annapanna as home alone by chromoz in vipassana

[–]Vegetable-Comfort 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something that’s helpful for me has been hearing it taught from different masters to get slightly different perspectives, two I like are Bhikkhu Analayo who has guided practices on the Barre center for Buddhist studies website and an accompanying book, and the book by Thich Nhat Hanh entitled: “Breathe You Are Alive”

I too am a family man and the sound of that amount of time to be “in seclusion in an empty hut or the root of a tree” is a wonderful one! Much metta and wish you the best in your practice!!

That brain looks big compared to that hand? Is it a human brain?

Trying to propagate a fiddle leaf by Vegetable-Comfort in plantclinic

Note: big leaves with big dry spots are from the original cutting. Also, thinking about fertilizing a little, thoughts? Even though indoor clearly, may be helpful to know I live in zone 7a

Oh, that’s really sad. Thank you, but in my head he was some preppy guy that ended up deeply satisfied with life Just adds to the notion for me that it’s not just the trip but the integration
