More context, it's an interesting little Sutta, the wisdom resonates. x.com/i/grok/share/b…

"Extinguish anger just as if one's head were on fire." Uraga Sutta: The Serpent, excerpt: "He who can curb his wrath as soon as it arises, as a timely antidote will check snake's venom that so quickly spreads, such a monk gives up the here and the beyond, just as a serpent sheds its worn-out skin." Just like that.

It's funny to think of Earth as a giant Zoo.

They’ll hate you for being exactly who you say you are, because they were hoping you were fake, so they could “expose” you. Authenticity threatens predators.

This is so true, (referring to the excerpt below). This can really, really accelerate one's practice. It's really not even optional, for one on the path. So many benefits. Without mindfulness, (Samma Sati) one wouldn't be able to start up the other factors or folds of the path. Mindfulness is like the lead horse, yet it is not the only horse , there's a team of horses. "Mindfulness is the one mental factor which can and must be practised in every waking moment. There are twenty-four hours in the day and we might, if all goes well, meditate one hour in the morning and one hour at night. We might sleep six or seven hours, which leaves us with at least fifteen hours in the day. If we forget about being mindful for those fifteen hours in the day, we might as well forget about meditating and about practising the Buddha’s teaching. We are only paying lip service." Being Nobody, Going Nowhere Ayya Khema

The Mind That Never Sleeps 🪷 In the book "The Clock of Vipassana Has Struck", written in honour of Buddhist Master Sayagyi U Ba Khin, there’s a quote in the chapter "Introduction to Vipassana Meditation" (p. 62) that says: "The so-called ‘unconscious’ mind is not unconscious.” It’s a simple sentence, but it challenges how most of us think about The Mind. We often assume that if we’re not thinking or aware, The Mind is shut off. But according to the teachings of Buddhist Master Sayagyi, even when we’re not consciously aware, The Mind is still working - quietly shaping our reactions, habits, and emotions. (It’s like a phone running background apps. You don’t see them, but they’re draining the battery.) 😀 The Master gives an example: sit quietly for just half an hour. Don’t talk, don’t move, just sit. Suddenly, you’ll notice restlessness, tension, or subtle discomfort bubbling up. That’s not your body misbehaving - it’s your deeper layers of Mind, normally hidden, now becoming visible. This is what Vipassana uncovers. It’s not about making The Mind do something new - it’s about seeing what’s already going on under the surface. The Mind never really sleeps. It just hides. Vipassana helps us look beneath the surface and create a deeper understanding and insight. 🙏🙏🙏 #Buddhism #Buddha #Buddhist #books #book #quoteoftheday #quotes #Meditation #mindfulmeditation #Mindfulness #Vipassana #SpiritualJourney

“Long-term meditators for 5 years or more have brains that look, on average, 7.5 years younger than non-meditators.” The relevant detail is not relaxation. Meditation repeatedly activates prefrontal attentional networks while reducing chronic amygdala hyperactivation. Over
