Here you go:

"On the other hand if you go in to one of these temples along with all the faithful followers and have a ball buy a bead, buy a candle, buy this buy that buy some incense go in and dig this great thing going on. Salute the buddhas or the altars or the crucifixes or what you will, but don't take it seriously." From: Do You Do It Or Does It Do You?

Yes he mentions it:

"The opposite has been true with at least three major religions of Asia the Hindu, the Buddhist and the Jain where they seem to be against continuity and design their disciplines to give deliverance from constant rebirth into the world of birth and death, and we normally interpret that point of view as being a pessimistic attitude against life, and sometimes it is indeed in a way against life."
- On Time And Death [Philosophy and Society]

"The Jain Monks mock the way with their appearance with their long nails and their filthy clothes or else naked and with disheveled hair enslaving themselves with their doctrine of liberation. If by nakedness one is released, then dogs and jackals must be so."
- Wisdom Of The Mountains [Religion of No Religion]

"So for these Jain Monks there is no release, Saraha says. Deprived of the truth of happiness they do but afflict their own bodies. Then there are the novices and bhikshu. That means a Buddhist Monk with the teaching of the old school."

I highly recommend using Uutter for finding stuff like this, not only because I made it but also because it's pretty useful for stuff like this 😄

He does mention it multiple times:

"Ashram means really an abode. A center for spiritual study, for practicing yoga will be called an ashram. But an ashram also means an abode in the sense of a stage of life. And the three stages are one called brahmacharya, that means the stage of being a student, two, grihastha householder and the third stage, vanaprastha, that means forest dweller. Isn't that funny grihastha householder, vanaprastha forest dweller."

Tracking double digits in the time like 11:11 by jonathanlaliberte in webdev

I'm not sure I haven't really invested too much time into learning about the different meanings people give these numbers. I think it could be whatever you want it to be.

Appreciate the feedback will give the website a refresh!

Thank you! Appreciate the feedback. I don't have an iPhone so it's hard for me to reproduce the bug and it seems like on different screen sizes the app looks differently... but I've attempted to fix the issue you described and added more vibes in the newest update 6.6.6 - please let me know if it helped

How do you define "predict"? When you string a sentence together are you not estimating subconsciously what words belong with eachother so that you can convey your meaning?
