Ven Tuvaṭaka: 'Seeing in what way is a monk unbound, clinging to nothing in the world?'

Buddha: 'He should put an entire stop to the root of objectification-classifications: "I am the thinker"'

(Aṭṭhakavagga 14, Ṭhānissaro Bhikkhu's translation).

The attitudes and behavior of a monk training for the sake of total release.

Aurora – Craving (2023) drifts between dream pop, downtempo and soft electronic melancholy, building a late-night atmosphere filled with warm synth layers, slow rhythms and cinematic haze. The Kinobe remixes add a subtle lounge nostalgia that deepens the EP’s reflective mood.

The most effective way I've found to overcome habitual desires/cravings is contemplating impermanence (anicca). Throughout the day, if you see everything, including the body and thoughts, as fleeting and not good enough (compared to eternal spiritual things), everything in the world loses its appeal.

The condition of an expanding and technologically progressive system of mass-production is universal craving. Advertising is the organized effort to extend and intensify craving...

As a #BuddhistMonk, many people ask me about #homosexuality, being #transgender, #sex, marriage, or relationships, as though these are central religious questions. They are not. #Buddhist practice is concerned with suffering, its causes, & the way suffering may cease. It is about understanding #impermanence, attachment, #craving, anger, & delusion. #Gender identity & sexual preference do not alter this path. (1/5)

Le craving, ce n’est pas “juste une envie de boire”.

C’est ce moment où ton cerveau te pousse vers l’alcool,
même quand une partie de toi veut sincèrement arrêter.

Mais la réalité est souvent bien plus complexe.

Si tu traverses ça en silence :
tu n’es pas seul.

A quotation from Thomas Carlyle

Enjoying things which are pleasant; that is not the evil: it is the reducing of our moral self to slavery by them that is.
