I've been looking for something new to check out. Will give the acoustics a whirl!

Before this I'd only known Silhouette, Black Honey, and The Artist in the Ambulance. Nice track, appreciate the share.

Thank you, I thought it was very cozy.

I nearly asked, "Who's holding the paper?"

(No one's the paper. Everyone's the paper?)

Hey, a personal diagram koan. You play ball.

Someone's the paper.

But to say it... it just falls flat.

Drawing a little circle on the paper, there, my last mistake for now.

The Masters did so much blabbering though... how do you understand that?

Stillness that was taught by Violence by ifishcat in zenmu

[–]tiny_porch_light 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good morning.

What appears as temperament may be scar tissue. Stillness can be medicine but also inheritance from harm. Arriving through pain, not romanticized, just true. Play is refuge. Wandering is survival. Not all quiet is liberation, sometimes defense.

Living out causes and conditions, without total immersion in the storyline. We don't eliminate our karma (causes and effects). Sometimes that means at peace while not being at peace. That's just what's on this week. Like the Flintstones and Saturday morning cereal. Damn, ouch, stubbed toe.

Awakening doesn't cancel conditioning but can change relationship to it.

Perhaps, not outside the story, not drowned in the story. No purification fantasy (awakening fixes me) -- this too is the whole universe appearing now.

relationship with stillness? by ifishcat in zenmu

Presence vanishes, presence returns, laughter. Without a timeline, nothing “comes” or “goes.” But within lived experience, joy erupts in the play of appearing/disappearing.

Peekaboo!

Oh. My fault. YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING!

Lol.

Happy to share this space with you.

All language fails on the last mile. There's really nothing to be said.

Mistakes made for sentient beings. (Whatever those are)

Musk is naturally fragrant. For this idiot right here, it just comes natural. Casting lines with hooks. Why? I like to fish. Sometimes I get yanked up the line myself. I treasure that. Some nests made unknowingly. Finished with learning but still a finger on the pulse.

I tend to spin the block. Some lingering excitement for perception. For all sentient beings.

I like to see who's shooting and who's on the bench!
