  1. On this Āsāḷha Full Moon day, it's good to remember these 'auspicious' days, which now enrich viharas, began just because early wandering ascetics needed a regular time and signal to meet to recite their tradition's rules and vote on penalties for rule breakers.

  3. 'when committed to assiduously sowing the appropriate causes, suitable results do eventually become manifest. It is good, paramount in fact, that we all be reassured and reaffirmed in this'--Ajahn Achalo

    Sometimes I think all you can do in this timeline is to just keep doing the Next Right Thing (an old A.A. concept for how to keep functioning when you are, well, barely functioning! early in sobriety).

    Keeping on functioning, doing the next right thing, when your entire government is trying to prevent that, *is* resistance!

  5. If kamma is volitional/intentional action (cetanā), that means it's extremely minute. Every small intentional movement of the body/brain or mind plants a seed (bīja) for the future fruition (phala) of perceiving that one has a body or mind to move.

  7. Many societies operate on the assumption people have free will/choice over their behaviours, but, if one could view the universe on a large enough scale, both Einstein, some biologists, and Buddhism say the system overall is deterministic, meaning, though complex, people are actually natural automata/machines.

  14. Here's why #Mahayana has never appealed to me. Their premise seems based on faulty logic to me: that one can possibly, nay, *must*, save all other beings (before attaining Nibbana oneself).

    I see moving towards Nibbana as involving getting really good at predominantly dwelling in the right hemisphere of the brain (pls see Iain McGilchrist's awesome "The Master and his Emissary"). But how can we reach into other people's brains and *force* more right-brainedness?
