tender verdant grass

the apples #ripen
a glossy shade of crimson
just like autumn leaves

#Pears. What a pain in the butt #fruit!

I buy some, wait for them to #ripen. Each day I try them - nope, not ready yet.

Then after 4 days of this - they’ve gone #rotten! My fingers go straight through the fruit.

Sorry pears, from now on I’m only going to buy #canned pears - this has happened far too often.

newly green, untouched
slowly swelling, crimson flushed
sweetly, rotting rushed

Dear Friends of #Buddhism,

As we may know, #meditation is all the rage … #gone … #sublimated or #melted. That is why it is all the rage, #frenzy and #focus for new #resolves.
I have been a #Buddhist since I was young enough to #read, old enough to know #better and #wise enough to #know no #difference.

#Wrathful or #rage based practice is nearly as advanced as #Mahamudra and #Dzogchen or just counting the breath …

Let me #explain for the #Fury’s, #furry’s and #timid wabbits …

The #easiest and #fastest #way to #ripen #karma and make #progress is to call up a wrathful or #protector #Buddhist #manifestations/#principle/#quality …

This is most familiarly done in #Vajrayana/#Mantrayana
