Such simple but so powerful concepts: 1)The essence of compassion is to think for others. 2)Self awareness and kindness to self are to build a reserve to sustain being compassionate toward others.
🙏♥️🙏♾️ I just reread my little missive... my personal experience and all the thousands of books I have read.. lead me to write this... I have, recently, passed a new milestone in my personal path to enlightenment... this small writing is still the best I can do... thank you ✌️ ps... thee and me = all of us when I look in your eyes I see myself... we... all of us are... exactly the same... carbon copies of each other, so to speak... one of the ways we are all the same is ==>> we all have a different history... which means specifically.. we will respond to the same stimuli differently... how can it be otherwise? you talk about screaming children.. mine never acted like that, brother... it's not right or wrong... just different... difference is actually good... sameness... not so much... it is the difference in yin and yang... positive and negative... light and dark... that makes this lovely Universe so lovely.. because everything is busy going round and round... up and down... and.. I think... it's a good thing ♾️❤️♾️ 🙏☯️🙏 ❤️✌️❤️
I was a stay at home dad... when my son was born... started back to school and changed careers during the time... my son didn't yell and fuss... personal freedom may have something to do with that, I don't know.. he's acting like that now.. he's 33.. long term very good job.. just got married.. and doesn't talk to us anymore.. we don't even know why... his own history.. and present circumstances... our job was to make sure he can take care of himself and his family... he can... our love remains.. with a helping of sadness on birthdays and holidays... not wrong... just different ✌️
family is good, Geshe Jinpa... glad you found happiness, sir... I think family is the most important thing we have as a society... and our children are the most important resource... sharing is good... sharing other people's stuff, not so much... freedom involves the ability to make choices... taking from others.. to redistribute the wealth is... the use of force and coercion in every country in the World today, sir... government doesn't create new wealth...

work gives us dignity... taking care of one's self and family is as natural as it gets... here's something surprising... my business model is based on giving away the fruit of my labor... I have been doing so for most of the past 10 years...

Loved it..always from Thupten Ji. Visited Dharmashala this summer..saw footprints of great beings there.
Such simple but so powerful concepts: 1)The essence of compassion is to think for others. 2)Self awareness and kindness to self are to build a reserve to sustain being compassionate toward others.
So grateful for Jinpa-la. To have his wisdom manifest in my world, what an unbelievable blessing.
‘Self to self relationship’ - hadn’t heard that one before. Helpful, Jinpa la

ps... thee and me = all of us
when I look in your eyes I see myself... we... all of us are... exactly the same... carbon copies of each other, so to speak... one of the ways we are all the same is ==>> we all have a different history... which means specifically.. we will respond to the same stimuli differently... how can it be otherwise?
you talk about screaming children.. mine never acted like that, brother... it's not right or wrong... just different... difference is actually good... sameness... not so much... it is the difference in yin and yang... positive and negative... light and dark... that makes this lovely Universe so lovely.. because everything is busy going round and round... up and down... and..

What a nice man
family is good, Geshe Jinpa... glad you found happiness, sir... I think family is the most important thing we have as a society... and our children are the most important resource...
sharing is good... sharing other people's stuff, not so much... freedom involves the ability to make choices... taking from others.. to redistribute the wealth is... the use of force and coercion in every country in the World today, sir... government doesn't create new wealth...
Prosperity comes when we the people can keep the fruit of our labor... we make beautiful music through mutual cooperation... the use of force and coercion... not so much
in the study of economics my computer models clearly show that communism/socialism are not sustainable over the long run unless there's outside resources brought in... welfare warfare states arise... the difference between communism and socialism is... the name... when the benevolent government controls all the resources... including, and especially, information... the results are not long term stability... it's is .. in a hundred or more runs of my computer models... the results are.. stagnation and economic collapse... because, I think, they rely on the use of force and coercion.. we cannot get good results from doing something wrong...
the math is simple
1+1+1+1+1=5
1 -1+1-1+1= 1
communism and socialism are more properly called
oligarchy
it is a zero sum economic system that relies on ... slave labor...
people who work for someone else but cannot keep the fruit of their labor are called?... starts with an S
and we can dress it up with flags and um pa pa bands... but it is... slavery in no uncertain terms... and that's one of the reasons we are always at war
Peace begins when I no longer fear my neighbor... the reverse must also be true
Peace and Prosperity are predicated on
freedom
not free to be like me
not free to get a good job
free... to do and say anything we can dream up... including... having the resources available for building those dreams... the basics... of course.. food, clothes and shelter... and... especially... education

all the gold colored dust all over the Planet is in layers hundreds of meters deep... it is AuPt and AuPd for the most part... gold platinum alloy and gold palladium alloy... they can replace steel and aluminum... today.. I create them in my laboratory with a zero carbon footprint and they require zero ecological damage to obtain useful amounts... many of my methods come from China and Pakistan.. and Vietnam... the Miaow silver in old Chinese bullion... teals... are usually AuPd... light as aluminum the way I make it... strong as steel... made with a small electric furnace... or a plasma torch... the one I am using cost a little more than a hundred dollars... it takes a few minutes work... for the People of Planet Earth... to build their dreams with
a small gift... from my family... to my larger family... my brothers and sisters everywhere
this is sharing, sir... because it is freely given... my reward is... happy healthy neighbors... and no hungry children
work gives us dignity... taking care of one's self and family is as natural as it gets... here's something surprising... my business model is based on giving away the fruit of my labor... I have been doing so for most of the past 10 years...
I have way way too much stuff, brother... my cup overflows... rice bowl always full... giving is good... we get good results from doing good things... but unless it's freely given... it doesn't count... it becomes a negative one in the math...
positive reinforcement brings... duration.. long term continuity
negative reinforcement does not
... like science... economics is based on mathematics... it's not magic... it's the way stuff fits together
changing the World is relatively easy...
stop taking other people's stuff
stop.. sending our children to war..
the golden rule is the only one we need to live together peacefully
it starts with trust that other people actually are like thee and me
they are
I checked... more than once
then we can lay down our weapons and embrace each other as brothers and sisters... not because we have to
because we are
Peace ✌️☯️🙏♾️🙏 please
