SifasevenNorth: EVERGREEN
nature #evergreen
even in the driest land
tender verdant grass
South: RIPEN:
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.

Sometimes you stick them onto the compost heap in the back of your head, where the rot down, and attach to other things, and get half-forgotten, and will, one day, turn into something completely usable." — Neil Gaiman — — — #NeilGaiman #quote #quotes #obsession #ferment #mature #ripen #useful
lobsterDear 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
