bodhidave<p>I completed a 7 day intensive <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Zen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Zen</span></a> retreat today ("sesshin").</p><p>I'm not finished in my contemplative practice, but a couple wonderfully profound glimpses on this retreat remind me:</p><p>The <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Buddhist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Buddhist</span></a> terms "no self" and "emptiness" and "no mind" — those aren't beliefs. They're words which are expressive of an experience, one that's matter-of-factly before words.</p><p>.<br>_____</p><p>"no self" is from the Pali *anatta* </p><p>"emptiness" is from Sanskrit *śunyatā*</p><p>and "no mind" translates the Japanese *mushin* (無心)</p>
Kent Pitman<p>BBC offers video taken near Gounsa Temple, a large and historic Buddhist temple built in 618 AD, which they report as having "burned down" among raging wildfires in South Korea.</p><p>For some of us, our minds race, imagining ourselves there, what would we do? Measure the distance probably, decide if we're safe. We hope no action is required. If we're far enough away, we hope to decide we can go about our lives. This is not about us.</p><p>That a static measuring tool reassures us about a kinetic event is a hint about the kind of denial we're in. Too many people unconcerned about walls that are closing in, preferring to see it is a problem only for those closer to the walls. It fuels in our society a love of politicians willing to tell us that this will not affect us. No wonder alternative facts are so appealing.</p><p>If we can just be left alone to get through our own lives, surely it can be seen to be someone else's problem.</p><p><a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/videos/c7982w809jno" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">bbc.com/news/videos/c7982w809j</span><span class="invisible">no</span></a></p><p><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/climate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>climate</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/wildfire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wildfire</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/wildfires" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wildfires</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/BuddhistHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BuddhistHistory</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Buddhist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Buddhist</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/history" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>history</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/temple" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>temple</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateCrisis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateCrisis</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateEmergency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateEmergency</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimareDenial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimareDenial</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/CognitiveDissonance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CognitiveDissonance</span></a></p>

Saustrup<p>Random memory: Some 45-50 years ago, my dad sold and serviced <a href="https://mstdn.dk/tags/CPM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CPM</span></a> machines, specifically <a href="https://mstdn.dk/tags/GeminiMicrocomputers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GeminiMicrocomputers</span></a> from the <a href="https://mstdn.dk/tags/UK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UK</span></a>.
