The 10 Grave Precepts of Mahayana Buddhism: The truth of what we are is something difficult to put into words & is worth treating respectfully. Because all beings feel fear & pain, we should refrain from needlessly harming or killing them

The New Age movement in a nutshell

having an intrusive thought and shaking my head to show the mind readers that i don’t approve

Let’s fucking GO

@vegetalpuppet Being very cozy in a very small space when the weather is very bad is an ancestral mammalian desire from deep within our evolutionary heritage

this would be so fun to sleep in a plywood shed full a grilled spam fume scented stuffed animals emitting volatile organic compounds during a snowstorm. but maybe i only like the idea of that idk. high likelihood i am pitifully ill-equipped to report on what my actual desires are

@janecoaston @mckaycoppins It's pretty wild how smoking, drinking and teen pregnancy have all declined *dramatically* along with crime and violence from 30 years ago and basically no one seems happy with those accomplishments

@traumadol It’s gonna be okay 🫂

crashing out like its a sport and i'm first place 🫶

Late night dry sauna & cold plunge has me feeling like the God of Relaxation tonight

@doesntswallow @Cultination1 😢

@Cultination1 @TPatbat maybe you made some points 🫢

🇮🇳🩸👩🏽‍🌾Les travailleuses de la canne à sucre en Inde SE FONT RETIRER l’utérus pour ne plus manquer une journée de travail. Dans le district de Beed (Maharashtra), des ouvrières de la canne à sucre subissent des hystérectomies pour ÉVITER LES ABSENCES liées aux règles, aux grossesses ou aux fausses couches. Dans le système de travail « jodi », les couples sont surendettés et TRAVAILLENT jusqu’à 14 HEURES PAR JOUR, sans congés ni protections, poussant certaines femmes à voir cette opération comme une solution pour continuer à travailler. Malgré des enquêtes menées en 2019 révélant plus de 13 000 HYSTÉRECTOMIES dans le district de Beed et des promesses de réformes, les militants dénoncent un manque de changements concrets. Les conditions de travail extrêmes, le MANQUE D’HYGIÈNE et la pression de certains médecins FAVORISENT ces opérations. Les autorités locales, sous pression médiatique, ont lancé de nouvelles enquêtes et PROMETTENT DES MESURES, mais les activistes estiment que le système reste inchangé. (The Guardian)

Trying to claim a salary that’s less than a third of the average salary for Lajpat Nagar isn’t “underpaid” “cheap labour exploitation” lmfao San Francisco techbros with savarna privilege aren’t just stupid, they’re evil

@doesntswallow @CultOfRize Yeah culture isn’t everything but neither is economics, or else we’d see similar businesses in Jamaica or Kenya

@TPatbat @CultOfRize hmmmm. yes I mean i do think its ultimately related to caste society ofc, i just question culturist explanations most of the time 🤔

Hindu society is peak:

@YesKhush_5 Do you not consider 149 rupees an hour “underpaid?” lmfao Trying to have it both ways “India is Shining” bullshit

People calling this "cheap labour exploitation" are mixing up two things. Physical work is not exploitation. Underpaid, unsafe, humiliating work is. If the assistants are paid fairly and treated with dignity, this is a legit service solving a real pain. Criticize labour terms, not labour itself.

@doesntswallow @CultOfRize Economics is a factor to be sure, but this kind of thing is unthinkable in other third world countries. You just don’t see it anywhere else

@TPatbat @CultOfRize I'm skeptical I think it's economically driven. what else was slavery or the uber immigrant underclass if not a type of shudra

@doesntswallow @CultOfRize Honestly, no. Have you ever read White Tiger? America is an entire nation of Balrams, there’s a reason our Brahmins stay as far away from our Shudras as they physically possibly can—we’ll rob & kill, we’re not deterred by the threat of retribution on our families

@TPatbat @CultOfRize well yes but i think being a third world country doesn't help — i mean you don't think Americans would do this if labour wages were lower ?

@veruca_slut Your penance will be relatively light thanks to your confession

@TPatbat sincere apologies to the future - i am a spoke in the wheel as a corporate conference coordinator.

If you want a picture of the future, imagine a course-seller selling courses to other course-sellers— forever.

@realitymap Western people in general have a “commercial” mindset towards everything, even that which is sacred and divine. For them, all can be traded, monetised, valued, capitalised. They reduce life to a contractual arrangement. They are deeply trapped in Samsara / Maya.

“Spiritual” people tend to not like this definition though because it is much easier to just say you have an elevated, divine consciousness rather than say you’ve gotten rid of the most addictive psychic tendencies in your mind. One is easy to fake, the other isn’t 🤷🏻

Yes, yes, very monastic and privileged of you to find God in the silence, but can you find Him in the horrid deafening cacophony?
