Addiction is just a weakness of a sense to the world. It’s simply a weakness, nothing else.
Sense control is self control
When anger meets desire due to thinkening of thoughtflow
There is a gap in reality vs expectations. This gap will lead to more delusion –> Lose your memory of what really happened—>Lose your fun personality—-> Lost the purpose of the intellect.
Even after it’s stuck
At first revisiting thought, dismiss it as a dark and uncecessary alley. Rinse and repeat till required.
You linger in the perception of once experienced joy
Ripples of thought inside are placebos that result in agitation upon waiting
When you desire something for the second time, you’ve experienced it once and have forgotten the experience
Thus, refusing it is power. *(Something from yest convo).
Generate the idea of having enough.
The body is like a bodhi tree. The mind, like a bright mirror standing. Take care to wipe it all the time, and allow no dust to cling.
Shen shoe’s understanding was incomplete.
Complete it when you understand.
Like birds through the sky, they come and go. Like space, your mind leaves no trace.
The buddha nature is not bit by bit, it doesn’t have divisions.
Don’t cling, don’t seek.
Using mind to grasp mind, is contrary to the point. When the fish is caught, the trap is forgotten
No thought and no mind are carefully distinguished from nothingness.
When spontaneity is understood, you can operate using the dao. It’s just a matter of having the nerve, and your spontaneous functioning is the buddha mind.
Thinking is a good servant but a bad master.
Don’t confuse man made concepts with reality.
