April is the cruelest month for establishments parties 🤔

A photo is unable to capture the Joy joy joy of spring plum blossoms in spring! #Garden #Gardening #Spring

Just people clinging to power…indeed! And the looks of it - they are not going give it up easily!

Its not just rip off its more like extortion!

And now its not a vote for the lesser of two evils 🤔

Knock and the green door will be open to you and so it seems to come to pass!

Savage Green party lol! The Green Menace! You should wear those insults with pride! :)

Well done to a plumber! :) We want to see more of these ordinary people with extraordinary talents to be in the parliament 👍

Other countries seems to be making great progress in renewables. It can be done. We need to do it now.

Greed will destroy us all! And it is destroying us all!

Only a green menace to their class for they want everything and do not like to contribute to anything 🤔

Make it so! Let fortune favour the bold politics!

May be it needs a live ticker count 🤔

#Valentines Falling in Love was one of the most life affirming experiences I had. Happy valentines to those celebrating 🥳 Buddhist will say “Love, love without attachment”

Thoughts pass like clouds I watch them drift, unnamed, free I remain the sky #Poetry #Haiku #Meditation

Im exploring SciFi Utopias in books and putting thoughts on the good bits and if it ever work in practice. Previously I explored the book “Herland” #SciFi #Utopia #Books #Literature News from Nowhere (1890) by William Morris — Summary

Exploring SciFi Utopias in books. #SciFi #Utopia #Books #Literature 1. Herland (Charlotte Perkins Gilman) – All-female, self-sufficient feminist society. Herland is about three male explorers who discover a hidden, isolated country populated entirely by women.

#Meditation So far beginning to grasp that I am not my thoughts or feelings. These things arise and they disappear. I guess a progress of some sorts! I wish I started this when younger 🤔

#Meditation We are not our feelings. Feelings arise and feelings disappear.

#Meditation We are not our thoughts. Thoughts arise and thoughts disappear.

Wild London David Attenborough What a delightful program :)

Even in Winter, trees are beautiful

“I read x number of books this year!” Hmm never read books to keep a score 🤔 Must be some new fad…

#WinterSolstice The world turns and we have no choice but to turn with it. The cycle repeats. And we begin again at the starting point…another cycle in which we have the chance to liberate ourselves from all our woes…

It seems now all social media is just AI crap 🤔

#Meditation Descartes: I think therefore I am Meditation: thought think themselves 🤔

#Meditation Buddhist Heart Sutra Gate gate pāragate pārasamgate bodhi svāhā. Gate gate pāragate pārasamgate bodhi svāhā. Namo Avalokitesvarāya Paṭipajjati gambhīraṃ paññāya pāramitāya, Passati pañcakkhandhā suññatāya sabbena, Atikkamati sabbadukkhaṃ. youtu.be/bOsY1pnmvaA?...

#LazySunday A Soaking bath with some music and all is well!

The TV Series the The Good Place sets out to teach western ethics but ends with Buddhist Insights and Nirvana 🤔

#Meditation Once you can observe your thoughts without engaging with them, you begin to realise you are not your thoughts 🤔 You are not your jealousy You are not your hatred You are not your anger 🤔

Arthur C Clarke “Childhood Ends” #Book #SciFi I read this book when I was young. Never understood what it meant. But it turns out that he translated Buddhist insights into scientific evolutionary cosmology 🤔 The Overmind as the Pure Awareness 🤔

Past two nights have been difficult with the flu! Flu is a virus. Inert on its own but if it manages to get inside a cell it can replicate rapidly! This is known as dependent origination in Buddhism. Ancient wisdom meets science! 🤔

Here's a video showing off some of the movement mechanics in Speck. Speck is a rolly bouncy momentum platformer with secrets, puzzles, a story; all that good stuff. I've got lots of development videos from the start so I might make a thread showing how we got here. #gamedev #indiedev #GameMaker

Hey! Just starting on my #game development journey. I've been a visual artist & writer for a good while now, and #gamedev is something I've had a curiosity for. It feels like it has to happen, so here I am! I'm going to be sharing my progress, and I would love to get to know you and your work.

#IndieGame #GameDev #Unity Day 1 : My journey starts!

#Meditation Meditation keeps the worlds madness at bay….

Thinking of indie game development as a hobby 🤔 #IndieGameDevelopment Good idea ? Bad idea? Waste of time? 🤔

Spending any time in malls drains me! 🤔 On the other hand spending any time nature uplifts me!

#Meditation The more I meditate, less I need the distraction of TV, Social Media etc 🤔 Less is more 🤔

#Medieation Reached a stage where I am feeling falling either backwards or forwards and the body kicks in to correct it. 🤔

#CurrentReading #SciFi “Consider Phlebas” I M Banks

#Meditation If you observe your thoughts you can see the wild goose chase the mind does. 🤔 Its like clicking on internet hyper links and you can go back sometimes to the first click 🤔

#TheTibetanBookOfTheDead #BardoThodol Its fascinating that the process of dying recorded in the Tibetan Book of the Dead maps neatly into the modern neuroscience view of the dying process! 🤔

#Meditation Sometimes, why the seemingly unconnected series of images and thoughts in quick succession? 🤔

My little water lily has bloomed and its lovely!

#TibetanBookOfTheDead Natively known as Bardo Thodol. It looks like quite an adventure after death! Encountering bright lights, compassionate beings and wrathful deities! 🤔 And your path to liberation is recognising that these encounters are a projection of your mind!

What caterpillar is this!? Looks like a tiny snake 🤔

#Philosophy Absolute Nothing is absence of all properties. Existence is a property. Therefore Absolute Nothingness cannot exist. 🤔

In many religious traditions being born in the world is a curse because there is suffering. In Buddhism being born in the human world is a great luck because here there is a great possibility of Enlightenment 🤔
