I 'm thinking this might be to destructive social environment to do this work. Perhaps I'll look for something more appropriate, I'm losing faith in this approach in this place, it might be better served some where else. Those I'm helping can contact me other ways, I'm gonna think on this for a while and consider wise council apparently there are other opportunities to teach in a more traditional format perhaps in person. But I like idea and might just finish up the the stuff I said that I would and post it. We will see, got new information to work with now.
I need to sit and prepare properly and find a quiet place, I really like the format and the ease of introducing resources to the read, superior to a book. I swore I'd never do a website, been since the turn of the century since I did that. I think to teach introduction, swearing and such should go, the Buddha was right again, but my purpose was only to inform and motivate, not teach here. I need to clarify my intention because things change, ya see new things and problems, both in youself and the environment. One can only inform and motivate, but then again I just really traffic direct here. Helping is a separate issue and I'll do that for as long as I'm here. Social media is self destructive, it's not a community and until it becomes one you can only inform help and shut the fuck up! Might just leave this here for those who are interested, until some shows up with an interest in right and wrong, most here know it and some don't know the difference and some have a variety of pathologists. Being non judgmental is hard for me in this environment, lack of practice, not ready to teach for a spell and not here advise on request. But if stop having a puff, I've still got the people I'm helping, that's a good thing so far, but that too might change, we will see how it goes. need to focus on my personal life for a spell.
Anybody taking part in training their mind should avoid social media and limit their media diet in general. Obviously there are large number of platforms with a wide variety of social stress depending on the section and behavior and participants here. Most of the growing sections where passions don't run as high, the sharing part where I started out. In the medical and political sections passions run high and it seems more like a village factions and ideology's are at social war. I thought the point of conversation of a political nature in this environment was to convince the other side, there is very little o that here. Not too many were interested in actually how to do it, using skillful means to convince others and I think I know why. More attention should be given to education and this kind of thing might be of some value, a book would be better, but that is academically very well covered. People need information to expand their options and improve their choices. They also need motivation, and that is rare. But I don't know too many kids with algebra as a hobby either and I think schools are where the true focus should be in a wide variety of current mind body programs with a range of intensities. But a three month training period in high school could make a big difference, most would support it if they put their children before themselves and stupid beliefs like racism..
This thread has been informational, but my efforts though useful were to much informative I was eager to teach and it gave me a lot of energy, still does. It will have to be directed better, this is not the place for this or me if I start to teach seriously and I still really don't want too, see what I got myself into, be sure what ya truly want. i'm gonna think on these things and seek more wise council that which I've heard is my efforts could be deployed elsewhere. Morals and ethics in practice is important and it is important to reconcile beliefs with teachings, belief is important for progress the Buddha said so, mine was in science and I'm not alone there are millions now secular practitioners on the path with a strong belief in the power of science to shorten up the path and have an appropriate level of mindfulness for the circumstances for your lifestyle. but those on the path are still rare and it is not wise to go too far for some. What's the point, if ya got what ya want and don't believe in enlightenment unless ya wanna spend a long time, even using all the tools of science. I haven't read too much on this in a spell, my interests in certain aspects were narrow and confined to my own issues, but those issues are common.
Social media is not just a reflection of our lives but for many a driver, far too much time is spent here and my knee kept me here too long, I became entranced too! I never chewed so many heads of in my life, in such a short time and unfortunately enjoyed it too much, hard to reconcile that and that is the true issue with me here social media exacerbates character flaws, I'd be running around like many with sword in my hand!
I think Donald's days are over and when the real and present danger is gone I'm gone from the section, interesting and fun as Hell, but counter productive for me too. I'm starting a practice and practice what ya preach. Let the thread go to the back of the pack and check in every now and again folks know it's here and can find the info if they want. Other than checking PMs and comments on the thread I'm gonna stay clear of social media during training, it would be wise for any body I never even had cable and my TV collected dust because I swore it off for training and just used a computer, but that too much too. I ain't now monk though, it is peaceful until they come back home, then all Hell breaks lose! Even after 5 years of intense training and three month retreats (monsoons) each year. Ya want a nice quiet life for training, my old job was anything but the rest was pretty tame. when does thinking and planing become self absorption? If your focus is not on others ya gotta have a rule book so get sitting.
