How would you live your life if the future of the planet depended on your behavior? Good news! It does.

Meditation is a living inquiry into what is good, true, and beautiful. Non-clinging is a part of what is good, but it does not exhaust it. intimatemirror.substack.com/…

I enjoyed this conversation very much.
A very intriguing combination: watching my dear colleague and close friend @petermunthekaas talk to much appreciated @dthorson about relating practices to hurt the people around us less Recommend watching this.

Jim was the first person to become a paid subscriber to my Substack. That felt very significant to me. I never got to meet him but was very glad to know him and his mind.

this is extremely good, also noticing that the prompt 'go upstream' (asked with sufficient curiosity/wonder) is an excellent way of escaping the limiting perspective reframing to a better question.

The only proof of practice is the quality of your most intimate relationships. Everything else is noise.

Easter egg in this pod: world's shortest nirodha instructions and I think, to date, world's most concise explanation of predictive processing (~75 seconds). Also the first podcast I've recorded from home! If you've ever wondered what my office looks like, wonder no more

Love this frame.
On tanha as a “refusal of the call to adventure”: “…the refusal is essentially a refusal to give up what one takes to be one’s own interest. The future is regarded not in terms of an unremitting series of deaths and rebirths, but as though one’s present system of ideas, virtues, goals, and advantages were to be fixed and made secure.”

It’s surely wise to pray at the altar of Ursula K LeGuin. Zora Neale Hurston was a wise one. Now for the rest of the day other names will be popping into my head…
May crone energy rain down upon you. 🙏👵

If you just do the right thing the next right thing seems to automatically appear before your eyes. Note that for most people at this time the “next right thing” seems to be dying into a huge pile of inter generational trauma but after that yeehaw. 🤠

Jhana is good and all but have you tried participating in wholesome social arrangements aligned with the well being of all life?

There seems to be a shape at the center of reality: the humiliating, unbearable failure of love and the infinite forgiveness that meets it, endlessly, in each moment. This shape is mostly associated with the Christian tradition. It doesn’t belong to the Christian tradition. It belongs to reality.
