#eastasian — Public Fediverse posts on home.social

Question for my #EastAsian peeps out there on the Fedi: I’ve used this product a few times with decent results, but there are a couple of things about it that I’m unclear on:

The instructions don’t say how much of the Glico stuff I’m supposed to use. In the box are two sealed packets, each containing a brick with four pieces. I’ve been tossing in all four. Is that correct?

The instructions say to cook all the ingredients, then remove the skillet from heat and put in the Glico cubes and let them melt, but I feel like if I do that the resulting dish is gonna be way too watery. So I toss in the cubes and then simmer the mixture down for a bit to thicken the ‘gravy’. What should the desired consistency be?

The #stūpa is a central symbol of #Buddhism, serving as a reliquary, cosmological diagram, and site of ritual. Its architecture embodies Buddhist concepts of enlightenment, impermanence, and the universe. Regional adaptations, from Indian domes to #EastAsian #pagodas, reflect Buddhism's diversity and continuity. This post provides a brief overview of the stūpa's origin and evolution through history:

Dajian #Huineng, the Sixth Patriarch of #Chinese #Chán (#Zen), catalyzed a shift from gradual to sudden #enlightenment, emphasizing direct realization over scriptural study. His teachings on no-thought, non-abiding, and the inseparability of #meditation and #wisdom remain foundational in #EastAsian #Buddhism.

#ZenBuddhism, rooted in #Mahāyāna #philosophy, emphasizes direct experiential insight over conceptual elaboration. Drawing from #Madhyamaka, #Yogācāra, and #Huayan, it prioritizes immediacy 🌳, non-duality 🌀, and embodied practice 🧘‍♂️ — defining features of #EastAsian #Buddhism. This new post outlines #Zen's historical and philosophical foundations as part of a new #WeekendStories sub-series:
