Wat’s Carbon Water-N-Stuff Thread - Concepts In Iron And Wood!!!

Not thinking about anything is zen. Once you know this, walking, standing, sitting, or lying down, everything you do is zen. To know that the mind is empty is to see the Buddha...Using the mind to look for reality is delusion. Not using the mind to look for reality is awareness. Freeing oneself from words is liberation.

~ Bodhidharma




Buddha Sakyamuni said four verses:

“All things have an end,
all that is high will fall,
all that is united will separate,
all that is born will die.”


The meaning of this verse is: Everything has an end, all that is high will fall, all that is united will separate, all that is alive will die.


After hearing the teachings of Buddha Sakyamuni, the father was filled with grief and his heart was enlightened and clear. He was no longer so miserable when thinking about his daughter.

The Heart Sutra

观自在菩萨 行深般若菠萝蜜多时
guān zì zài pú sà háng shēn bān ruò bō luó mì duō shí
When Avalokiteshvara Boddhisattva was meditating upon the pursuit of transcendent wisdom


照见五蕴皆空
zhào jiàn wǔ yùn jiē kōng
He came to the realization that form is nothing more than illusion


度一切苦厄
dù yī qiē kǔ è
And so he freed himself from all suffering and dissatisfaction.


舍利子,色不异空 空不异色
shě lì zǐ,sè bú yì kōng kōng bú yì sè
Shariputra: Form does not differ from emptiness; emptiness does not differ from form.


色即是空,空即是色
sè jí shì kōng, kōng jí shì sè
Form itself is emptiness, emptiness itself is form.


受想行识,亦复如是
shòu xiǎng xíng shí, yì fù rú shì
So too are feelings, perceptions, impulses, and consciousness, neither existing nor not existing.


舍利子,是诸法空相
shě lì zǐ,shì zhū fǎ kōng xiàng
Shariputra, everything is empty, non-existent.


不生不灭,不垢不净,不增不减
bú shēng bú miè,bú gòu bú jìng,bú zēng bú jiǎn
No birth, no death, no purity, no impurity; nothing increases, nothing diminishes.


是故空中无色 无受想行识
shì gù kōng zhōng wú sè wú shòu xiǎng háng shí
Therefore, in meditation there is no form, no desire, no thought, no consciousness


无眼耳鼻舌身意
wú yǎn ěr bí shé shēn yì
The eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, mind; all are irrelevant.


无色声香味触法
wú sè shēng xiāng wèi chù fǎ
Seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, touching, thinking; all are useless


无眼界,乃至无意识界
wú yǎn jiè,nǎi zhì wú yì shí jiè
Everything that we see, hear, smell, taste, touch or imagine has no significance


无无明,亦无无明尽
wú wú míng,yì wú wú míng jìn
There is no ignorance; there is no cure for ignorance


乃至无老死 亦无老死尽
nǎi zhì wú lǎo sǐ, yì wú lǎo sǐ jìn
There is no aging, no death; there is no cure for aging or death.


无苦集灭道
wú kǔ jí miè dào
There is no way to end one's unfulfillment, no way to ever feel satisfied, no path to follow


无智亦无所得
wú zhì yì wú suǒ dé
Wisdom cannot be attained, there is no wisdom to be attained.


以无所得故 菩提萨埵
yǐ wú suǒ dé gù pú tí sà duǒ
By seeking nothing


依般若菠萝蜜多故
yī bān ruò bō luó mì duō gù
The Bodhisattva through reliance on transcendent wisdom is unimpeded in his mind.


心无挂碍 无挂碍故 无有恐怖
xīn wú guà ài, wú guà ài gù, wú yǒu kǒng bù
His heart is free, and when the heart is free, there is no fear,


远离颠倒梦想

The pre-production rifle order has been produced and is shipped.


It's always nice when a plan comes together.
 
Quiet the mind and the soul will speak.



What you think, you become. What you feel, you attract. What you imagine, you create.



Happiness will never come to those who fail to appreciate what they already have.
 
A new Reihnmetall plant is opening in lower saxony. Projected production will be 350,000 artillery shells annually.


That’s a lot of firepower.

Pros & Cons of CCW Insurance: Do Gun Owners Actually Need It?​



One of the biggest disadvantages to consider about self-defense coverage is that it may be invalid in your state. For reference, states such as New York, New Jersey, and Washington do not allow CCW insurance.

In fact, in 2019, New York banned this liability coverage, claiming that it promotes violence and exploits consumers’ fears. It is extremely important that, before purchasing a policy, you research your state and local laws.


And so on. I found this bit very interesting.
 
"It seems as though the rivers of craving are running in every direction," said Ajita, "How can we dam them and hold them back? What can we use to close the floodgates?"

The Buddha said: "Any river can be stopped with the dam of mindfulness. Caring and thoughtfulness are the flood stoppers. With wisdom you can close the floodgate."

~ Sutta Nipata




Remind yourself daily that there is no way to happiness, rather happiness is the way.

~ Lao-tzu



There is nothing more dreadful than the habit of doubt. Doubt separates people. It is a poison that disintegrates friendships and breaks up pleasant relations. It is a thorn that irritates and hurts; it is a sword that kills.

~ Buddha Siddhartha Guatama Shakyamuni
 
The Madness seems to be nearing the Breaking Point. Not sure what this will look like but I take comfort in knowing that no one else does, either.


We can discern that there is a lot of cover-up going on . . . .

It does not matter how many quotes from philosophers and religious leaders you cut and paste from a meme generator on your gun thread. When you openly supported and celebrated the election of a known fascist leader in the USA, you personally promoted a huge leap into the Madness.

Just saying….
