Interdependent Origination: Paṭiccasamuppāda

Would you like to look more closely at what makes you ‘you’ – how phenomena and perception arise? Then join us for a weekend of study of the wheel of dependent origination – a a powerful map for understanding consciousness.  This is a foundational philosophical doctrine shared by all schools of Buddhism. Recommended for students of all levels. 

Ask yourself – what makes up a human? Sure, there is form, body sensations, feelings, thoughts, ideas, consciousness and that awareness of being aware.  The 12 elements of the wheel of dependent origination teach us to look at the basic building blocks of the human being. The result is the downgoing of suffering and the upgoing of wisdom and compassion. 

This weekend of study focuses on a fundamental teaching shared by all schools of Buddhism. It is a highly recommended foundational perspective that has deep repercusions for how you see and experience your life, the body-mind continuum and the world around you.

The focus of buddha dharma is to become free of suffering. However there is necessary (sickness, old age, diseases, joint pain, babies) and unnecessary suffering (our lives, relationships) . if you look at the nature of suffering you see how nature pushes itself forward because of suffering. The purpose of the wheel of dependent origination is to help us ask “what is necessary and what isn’t”?

Ed knows the scent of Izzy's rot because it is their rot.

The decay been growing in them both for decades, and finally, their sloughed hearts have mixed together into necrotic sludge.

The thing about Ed and Stede is. Stede is the only one to ever really see him as a person. To treat him as an equal and to enter a space of play with him. Piracy was so much of a game to Ed. Yes it made sense because Ed could be ruthless, but it was a game. A place to experience some freedoms and childhood he never had. Stede played with him in the way he’d been craving. He’s honest and childish and most importantly fun. Ed has the preconceived notions of how he’s meant to act for certain people and he plays into it when he feels their affection fading, but then he sees how much Stede really offers him the safety and comfort he’s always wanted and only with the expectations that Ed is only himself and nothing more or less than that. And then Stede abandons him and Ed’s this scared little kid again lashing out.

They’ve done just such a fantastic job with writing Ed because that is everything we’re seeing. We’re seeing Ed lose his safe place and games and love and genuine affection with no intentions other than to love him. And he’s this scared little kid playing up big and strong and angry because that’s what’s expected and because he wants everyone to feel as horrid inside as he does. He’s lost everything and so they should lose it all too. Lose all the fun and play of being pirates and rot along side him or kill him because he can’t admit the desire he has to it to himself.

He’s a grown man, but he was never a kid so he can’t really be the grown person he should be. He can’t rationalize and when people point that out they point out how he never really stopped being that kid. and he panics. because if there’s one thing he’ll never be in his own mind is that scared kid taken advantage of but oh Ed isn’t that exactly what you’ve always been for the sake of safety? Of people staying close? Of people not abandoning you?

head in my heads honest to god i can’t handle this historical pirate fanfiction David Jenkins I’m on my way to your location as we speak. /j

I did not realize the boy and the heron was the new ghibli film, I thought that short story where that boy leaves his disabled younger brother to die in a thunderstorm just went viral for no reason at all

#tbh i dont remember if its a heron in that story because i read it in like 4th grade #its some large red bird and the symbolism was lost on me but that kid letting his brother die because he didnt like him was unforgettable #just like that story where everyone lives on venus and a group of kids leave the one outcast girl to die in the acid rain during recess #no context for these stories just the profound impact of the concept of premature death #i feel like for such serious messages these stories tried to teach. i did not understand them very well at all #even though we read them together as a class and discussed them. i dont think i understood any better because of it

why is owen wilson so hot why am i thirsting over a blonde man

#THIS ISNT ME. whats going on #he just has this air of whimsy but also like profound wisdom and tenderness #i want him to take me to his homeland and give me a tour of all the places he used to go as a child #and reminisce to me about the good old days before the world straightened out his spirit and crushed his dreams #and maybe teach me how to ride a horse or milk a cow even though i can already do both of those things #i'd pretend i'd never done it before so that he would have to help me #anyway #he just looks like a little rapscallion

If I see one more person refer to OSDD as a whole as a generalization or synonym of OSDD-1B I'm going to snap the wooden bars of this cage in the enclosures of my mouth and crawl my way out of Hell to Find You.

#News flash! Did you know (near) every section of the DSM-V-TR has a “Otherwise Specified” section? #And that every Other Specified disorder is a form of general symptoms without enough basis or prognosis to become its own diagnosis? #Did No One teach these guys about OSDD-2 OSDD-3 and OSDD-4? #2 is identity disturbance w itense coercive persuasion #AKA mind control changes personalitt #3 is Acute dissociation to stressful events Which is dissociative episodes lasting typically less than a month #So instead of it being chronic theyre just dissociation to an extent where its less tham a month #Typically to one traumatic event and can last as short as a few hours #4 is Disoociative trance which is exactly what it sounds like #Youre in a complete loss of awareness and go into complete autopilot with profound unresponsiveness to stimuli #Hell even 1a is unknown #Where it's all the criteria of Dissociative Identity Disorder but without the formation of separate identity states #But rather seen sort of like “Different Parts” of 1 solitified identity #Can you tell I've been reading my favorite section of the clinical psych Bible (DSM-V-TR) #I just hate when people say everyone with OSDD is a system or whatever NO. THEYRE. NOT. BREAKS PENCIL. #ITS A WIDE RANGE OF SYMPTOMS AND CRITERIA BECAUSE THE WHOLE POINT IS THAT THEY ARE NOT ITS OWN DISORDER. #IM. GONNA. BREAK. SOMETHING. GRAAAAAH!!!

i am soooo good at getting emotional over children's media but not in a fandom way in like a. oh god i care about people so much way

#its shel silverstein this time kldfjhd #watched a good vid essay abt his work and going through the comments of the vid and oughh theyre getting me to tears actually #ive gotten this emotional abt dragon tales and fraggle rock before lol #idk man maybe im super sappy but i find myself so very touched by media made for kids that is made with a genuine care #whether its a desire to teach people how to deal with emotions. to “end wars” in fraggle rock's case iirc #or just having such a respect for kids to want them to have these profound messages that stick with them into adulthood #ogh. ogggh. maybe this is why im an education major lol #rando thoughtz #edit additions bc im thinking abt it now after i already hit post #silverstein's poem Whatif like. particularly hit me hard rn when i heard it now #bc im like. well not to divulge into in a public setting but ive been really struggling with anxiety lately #its been p fucking bad #and that poem was like. ah thats literally how its been for me so many times ive been left alone with my thoughts in my bed #and it was like that a lot as a kid too ngl. so it makes me a little sad that i dont think i ever read that one as a kid #or if i did i didnt remember it. but its here for me now and its. comforting to have what ive been going through be in text for kids

i hurt when people hurt me, but i struggle to take an egotistical act personally

#life teaches me everday that its worth laughing about #and life shows me how #what happens to us is a gift a lesson or a profound punchline

[taiwantalk]

#absurdity can easily become brainwashed into normalcy #that is not a profound statement #that’s just me saying in simple terms with context #a recent conversation with those who thought Taiwan is in big trouble like a dictatorship for wanting to reach Taiwan’s history in Taiwan #taiwantalk #pan blues think Taiwan is obligated to teach Chinese history #that like america has to teach European history or British history or Roman history #wtf #and yet it is what it is #there are plenty of pan blues who feel strongly about it #imagine ukrainians who insist that ukraine must teach russian history #how fucked up is that? but somehow it makes sense to the fanatics

i’m deeply obsessed with sheryl lee ralph

#watching abbott cast interviews and they are such a profound group of people it’s so wonderful #so refreshing. like. slr saying that janine and gregory should get together and get in therapy… she’s 67. she’s an older black woman and #that is just so important for her to have that perspective and be so vocal about that and about protecting the arts and teaching and she is #like. idk literally just. quinta is amazing they are all so amazing in their own right and i love watching them talk abt their show #yappin

Savine had not changed this room. Probably no one had changed it in two centuries. Some dark oils of dead Lord Governors, some gruesome-looking Northern swords and shields looted from some old battlefield, some inexpertly stuffed hunting trophies, peering disapprovingly down with their bland glass eyes. An upset deer, an astonished stag, a baffled bear, a leering wolf. Leo had told her it was the way his father had liked it, and so it was the way he liked it, and she respected his decision. Or at least pretended to.

— The Trouble With Peace by Joe Abercrombie

#the first law #the age of madness #the trouble with peace #joe abercrombie #leo dan brock #savine dan glokta #harod dan brock #another leo loving hal moment! #his admiration for his father is so damn genuine #i'm kinda too invested in the idea that leo really really loves his dad #and that any bad memories are purely a result of his bad mood in the moment of recollection #he can't hide behind a bad childhood #bc for all intents and purposes hal's teaching WAS good for him & he DID benefit from believing in heroism/masculinity #the damage is entirely mundane and unintentional #leo loved hal and part of his being unable to stop reaching for the impossible ideal is that he would have to let go of hal to do it #it's his emotional support coping mechanism against profound grief #also dear lord his taste is so bad i love him so much <3

i do think disney movies have gone down in quality (for many reasons) but i also think. perhaps. some of us are expecting way too much out of movies meant for. children

#and i am a firm believer that children’s media needs to be GOOD like u cant say it doesn’t matter bc its for kids #kids deserve good media #however #disney movies are never going to be groundbreaking pieces of cinema with unique stories and deep messages #like i think a lot of yall are way too nostalgic over the movies u grew up with #bc i promise u if u actually sat down and rewatched old disney movies u would find they are not NEARLY as profound as u remember #this is also why the way some people reacted to the barbie movie confused me so much #it was never!!! going to be some extreme feminist art house film masterpiece #it was always going to be a surface level you go girl!! barbie advertisement #and if you want to see films that do explore themes like that. maybe its time to break away from disney #maybe its time for u to explore film that wasn’t created to teach children basic lessons #maybe its time... to consume something other than family friendly pg capitalist toy ads #i say this 💗with love💗 #also i know barbie movie wasnt disney and wasnt really meant for kids but it felt fitting in this convo #bc the expectations people put on that movie when it was literally!!!! a mattel sponsored ad were insane

i need to learn how to do some sort of craft with my hands like physically. like i need to learn how to embroider or something

#not crotchet because i tried once and it filled me with a rage so profound i was dazed #maybe i'll ask v to teach me to embroider next time we see each other in the flesh
