  1. Resolution: Try to live life in such a way that people aren't celebrating across social media and in the streets when you die.

  3. Chap 2
    of New Year #Resolutions implementing change

    I enrolled in an on line meditation course. I joined a few forums specialising in dharma or #Buddhist lore. There was no stopping me. I even announced my intention, probably not a good idea. Nothing riles Buddhists more than someone trying to practice Buddhism in a way they don’t approve of. I also joined a sort of Buddhist therapy by the enlightened. The non-dualists fired questions about what you were until you finally realised it was all a fantasy and nothing known as self exists. My ego was to be vapourised?
    My new found on-line sangha or Buddhist community, were very kind. They have to be, it is part of the rules. Not really rules, more like skillful recommendations?

    #Buddhism was started by a sort of male Grace Kelly #Princess of an ancient kingdom. Not happy with a sheltered magical life, the Shakya Clan Princess went through a series of New Age treatments until finally sitting under a tree and having a fig drop on their sacred bonce - or was that #Newton? Anyway he worked out the gravity of the situation and went about shouting the equivalent of #Eureka but with a little more decorum. Could this work? Where was the nearest fig tree?

    I built a couple of shrines and slept on the floor between them. Buddhist monks are not allowed raised beds in case they hide women underneath. I am not sure of many women who would hide under beds for a bit of slap and tickle with a penniless baldy but one can take no chances. If a period of institutional misogyny has to be endured, sorry ladies, just be grateful I am not a strict #Jain. Their women have to incarnate as men to become enlightened! Ah well, a bit of nonsense helps with the training in patience. Or Not?
    So the environment was in place, I chanted for help from Manjushri, Chenresig, Cundi (female Buddha), Tara (Lady Buddha too) and anyone else listening in the pantheon of other realm helpers. How could I fail? I installed Buddha’s in the garden, kitchen, bathroom and on an iPad, falling asleep with Buddha enlightenment on the mind and iPod touch tinny chants of encouragement.
    There was a diversity of Buddhists. #Meditation seemed recommended by the majority as the fast way to #Nirvana, satori, awakening. The good stuff?

    I soon learned that the mind is an unruly fellow to follow. Constantly changing. Never satisfied. Meditation would tame this beast and what would be left is Buddha Nature or #Enlightened #Mind All I had to do was sit and watch the antics of the meandering experience in stillness. Until finally, exhausted and exposed for time wasting, it would just sort of dissolve away into an empty puddle of nothingness. I had a plan. I could almost smell the land of #buddhas beckoning me... or was it moth balls?

  4. ..Step into the new year with intention, clarity, and cosmic #momentum. #Manifest is your guide to aligning thought, energy, and action — where quantum theory meets mythic purpose. This isn’t about #resolutions. It’s about #revolution. Start 2026 not by hoping, but by becoming. a.co/d/gX7T3LC

  7. 2/3 "Moins demander aux individus de se corriger, et davantage se demander ce que l’on tolère comme normes de travail, de réussite, de disponibilité ou de bonheur… Peut-être que la seule résolution vraiment radicale serait alors celle-ci : ne plus traiter comme des problèmes individuels ce qui relève, manifestement, d’un ordre social à repenser." #captitalisme #sociologie #résolutions #nouvelan Le nouvel an : cadeau empoisonné du capitalisme ?

    "Révolutionner la nouvelle année ne consisterait alors pas à renoncer au rituel, mais à le transformer ! À faire de ce seuil symbolique un moment pour réinterroger collectivement ce qui fatigue, ce qui précarise, ce qui empêche de se projeter autrement..."

  9. Two #goodhabits for the #newyear that are surprisingly easy to do and are already #makingadifference:
    - muting (large) accounts in the #trending section that are doing various forms of clickbait, because even in the #fediverse #ragebaiting #cutevideos #AIslop (AI slop with a leftist slant still is AI slop) are rife.
    - ignoring #comments from people who keep missing the point willfully or from sheer ignorance. My time is sacred.

    Who made resolutions this New Year? An article is discussing how to keep resolutions. Most are broken within 14 days. But technology and science can help us to stay on track and develop new habits. So listening to a podcast or audio book may help one to keep up with their resolution to exercise. Book trackers can help to achieve a goal of reading so many books a year. scientificamerican.com/podcast

  14. I've got a list of New Year's Resolutions I hope to maybe, possibly achieve.

    Finally write my book, watch more "foreign" foreign films, be on the internet less, no more AAA video games, and more.

    I spent a lot of time on this one, I wanted to explain why these are my resolutions and I think they can help others. Maybe, I don't know.
