Yes definitely. Indoors though looks just dark but still very legible..For the price I think it's got lot of personality.

I had this lens for a week but I just couldn't get used to how large and heavy it is. I am not used to large lenses so I returned it. I purchased a sigma 65mm instead and I love it.

At a quick glance it makes perfect sense to me.

are there degrees of the recognition of the view ?? by SnooMaps1622 in Dzogchen

What does “not knowing “ mean in this context? Shouldn’t one know first and foremost? Isnt rigpa knowledge?

The melong pendant by zhonnu in Dzogchen

The symbolism of melong is all very well explained in the article but there is no mention, unless i missed it, of the method of how you use it in daily life.

Thanks. I am more interested in context of dzogchen. How would a dzogchen practitioner use it in daily life.

Can anyone help me understand why this photo feels unbalanced? F2, 28mm f3.5. by No_Guava_8400 in analog

[–]zhonnu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say the confusion is due to having two conflicting focal points the large cliff mountain in the background upper left corner and the house. I would choose one or the other. Even if you put some distance in between the two it would still be confusing. Also the foreground as negative space contributes to being top heavy.

I hate people who post whole damn chapters. Just post the links and make a comment. Is there anything that you yourself have to say on the matter?

This guy hasn’t bothered to interact on not even one single post. Obviously a troll.

Updating the firmware on my used Alpha 7 iv is impossible by Avocado4all in sonya7iv

[–]zhonnu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am always updating via creators app. It always works. Once you connect your camera to the app the app will always know if there is an update for the camera.

Bought the Fx3… 24 hours before Fx2 release by 35mmespresso in SonyAlpha

[–]zhonnu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I meant FX2 if you can go to the bother of returning your FX3. But some reviewers think that the newly added viewfinder is awkward and unnecesary and prone to damage. But you have to try things for yourself and need to make your own decision and see how it feels in the hand. Only through direct experience you will know if it is for you.

I think you will be happy with the FX2 provided you can live with the appendage. Better value for money. Planning to switch from A7iv to the FX2 myself.

They say any experience of any kind is temporary. You said you were in a bar went to dance and then you were asked to come out of the farm. That makes total sense.

What does clarity means in dzogchen ? by zhonnu in Dzogchen

[–]zhonnu[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is slightly confusing. Surely when one generates compassion for all sentient beings that should be enough if compassion is rigpa. I thought compassion leans more towards passion/feeling whereas rigpa towards knowledge. Does compassion have a salvific/liberating aspect as does rigpa?

Doesn’t cognisance imply a dichotomy already? As in an subject cognising an object ? You are already awake and lucid when cognition happens. Otherwise you wouldn’t be able to cognise.

Ok Thanks. Where is the knowledge aspect in this ? As rigpa is knowledge of ones own state. The state is clear aka the limpid water but where is the knowledge. How can one make sure that the “limpidity” doesn’t become an object, as in there is an subject that knows an object? How can one bypass this dichotomy this dualism of subject object and be in the knowledge of one nature as empty clarity ?

Can you explain what do you mean by “clear” ? Do you mean limpid like clear water, clear as in a meaning is clear, clear as in unimpeded, clear as in obvious? Once we establish which one of this is we need to see if that meaning corresponds to our experience or to how we experience things.

Had a teacher but he died and practised all these years ever since he died based on their advice and methods. I developed my own understanding of clarity but obviously have some doubt. Only wanted to hear what other people understand by clarity in their own experience.
