    Consider doing something very special, perhaps never intended: How about playing 3DS games?

    Naah. With the limited time I have, I prefer to play only what I'm really fond of: I love those pixelated, angular, coarse graphics in both 2d and old FPS games. I don't want to disperse my interests too much: "chi troppo vuole, nulla stringe" (those who want too much, get nothing).😉

    Mhmm. I think you're limiting yourself too much.

    "those who want too much, get nothing" is what I always say if something is too expensive.

    How about this thought:
    Since (with the exception of nuclear fission energy) virtually all energy available on earth is directly or indirectly coming from the sun, so are the chemical processes inside our brains. One could argue, that thinking about the sun, is the indirectly the sun thinking about itself.

    In a certain way, seeing the sun as a kind of deity, wasn’t a stupid idea in early cultures.

    "Not very alone…" Nothing and no one is truly alone in the universe. Everything is interdependent. Each person is linked to others by material, emotional and cultural ties. Alone nothing and no one would survive. Feeling alone is an illusion of the mind. Esoteric truth (for the few): giving oneself totally to others is, paradoxically, being totally alone. [will anyone understand?]

    The sun is alone in its sunshine glory. It is indeed devine. Apollo awakens and brings new life. Creatures of the night watch out!
    Ladies and gentlemen, behold what I managed to find for 35€ + 5€ shipping. An o3ds in excellent condition, practically never used. 😋 Is Boot9strap and luma3ds enough to use homebrew ports and emulators, or do I have to install the other apps? Don't make me take unnecessary risks....😣

    Sometimes I get the feeling, that the wrong people are said to be crazy. Crazy in the sense: Missing common sense, doing things not comprehensible.
    What is considered to be normal (norm, majority), is not necessarily good -- when trying to evaluate with (hopefully) objective criteria.

    I can't agree with throwing all subjects into one pot. Psych*, pedagogy, sociology are different compared to biology and medicine (and chemistry, physics, math, computer science).

    Hey, I hope things are clearing up for you. It is not fun to drown in trouble, especially if that trouble is brown. If you are in too deep please just ignore my post, but I wanted to share observation I have made and posted somewhere else with you:

    Mmmm........interesting and original reflections. At another time I would have initiated an exchange of views, but as you surmised........ I am completely overwhelmed by :shit: ..... 🤣 😐 😢

    May fresh winds will bring different times, where you are free to share your perspective.
    Take a guess....I am in deep :shit:, literally.
    A sewer pipe broke in the yard (then again, it would appear to be almost 100 years old 😅). More problems (as if I didn't already have enough) and more money (these never enough) to flush down the drain, literally. Let's keep our cool. Ommmm ............ 🙏😑🙏
    And as the darkness of evening gradually emerges between breaths, the wind of the soul begins to pass over the sea. I, like someone who cannot return from a long journey, stand there motionless, on the edge of a world where the sea welcomes the sky within. Until the sun slips down. Where sea and sky join together, there is a place waiting for me, but who knows when I will be allowed to reach it and finally lie down.

    The sea is connected to reporduction, the nymphs etc. and the sun is the celestial Apollo.
    Joshu asked Nansen:"What is the true Way?"Nansen: "The Everyday Way." Joshu:"Can I study IT?" Nansen: "The more you study, the further you get." Joshu: "But if I don't have to study, how can I know IT?"Nansen: "The true Way cannot be seen or known. Do not seek, study, or name IT; to find yourself on IT, open yourself, immense as the sky..." :rolleyes:

    @Dark_Phoras I also gave you a "like" out of solidarity and encouragement, but to be honest I did not understand the point of your comment (maybe is my fault, I am too limited 🤣).

    Nansen told Joshu that the true Way isn't something to be known or studied. But I induce that Nansen is guiding Joshu towards the true Way, and that Nansen's master also did.

    A centipede lived peacefully and quietly. Until a toad one day jokingly said, "In what order do you put your feet one behind the other?"
    The centipede began to rack his brains and make countless trials. The result was that from that moment he could no longer move...😩
    A priest met a Zen master one day and, wanting to embarrass him, asked him: "Without uttering words or being silent, can you tell me what true reality is?"
    The master punched him in the face.
    @KleinesSinchen @JuanBaNaNa @Sono or someone else, since I am about to buy a used 3DS (old, first model) can anyone recommend an easy way (I emphasize EASY, without installing dozens of useless files) to install a cfw: I would only play SNES and n64 roms on it. Thanks.

    For surfing the web casually, reading books and watching cartoons (if wired headphones connected since the speakers are usually garbage). Playing video games? Nah. *Grabs DMG-001*

    Since you mentioned freud, I wanted to show you this:

    I have read that the Architect in the Matrix movie is associated with Sigmund Freud. Therefore I have checked on Freud, if there is anything about Vulcan, and there is something related. I will leave this as a note here:

    Anyway, that thread of yours is very original and creative. It is unfortunate that many users make no effort to read and understand, and comment constructively. They just say the usual stupid things. Then again, they have never read anything but comics or manga.

    Comics may be the most esoterically coded of all, even though its such low grade pop art.

    Gutei raised his finger whenever he was asked a question about Zen. A boy attendant began to imitate him in this way. When a visitor asked the boy what his master had preached about, the boy raised his finger.

    I know them by their greek names: Zeus castrating Kronos who was mating with Gaea. But that has nothing to do with the chinese tale, I'm afraid. 🤣

    During the weeks when Bankei was giving his meditation class, students came from all over Japan to attend. During one of these seminars, a student was caught stealing. The incident was reported to Bankei with a request that the culprit be cast out. Bankei ignored the fact. Later the pupil was caught in the act again, and this time too Bankei did not care about the matter.

    Too pessimistic! Besides, the eastern mentality is different from ours: sometimes honor, respect and gratitude are worth more than material needs. 🤔

    Where is honor, respect and gratitude when the person in question is a thief?
    Nikokaro

    Maybe thief by true necessity, I guess. Or to test his master: to provoke a strong reaction from him, as I often do here...😉
    A man begged Takuan to suggest how he could spend his time.The days seemed very long to him as he performed his duties and sat and strutted around receiving people's homage.Takuan drew eight chinese ideograms and gave them to the man:
    "Do not repeat twice this day.
    Splinter of time: great gem.
    Never again will this day return.
    Every moment is worth a priceless gem."

    We learn about the sayings and deeds of the men of old in order to entrust ourselves to their wisdom and prevent selfishness. When we throw off our own bias, follow the sayings of the ancients, and confer with other people, matters should go well and without mishap. Lord Katsushige borrowed from the wisdom of Lord Naoshige.

    This is mentioned in the Ohanashikikigaki. We should be grateful for his concern. Moreover, there was a certain man who engaged a number of his younger brothers as retainers, and whenever he visited Edo or the Kamigata area, he would have them accompany him. As he consulted with them everyday on both private and public matters, it is said that he was without mishap.

    We have to crack the ancient code.
