Comic: Happiness
by Ytrog » Thu Aug 02, 2012 10:21 pm
Found this one:
Suffering is asking from life what it can never give you.
mindfulness, bliss and beyond (page 8) wrote:Do not linger on the past. Do not keep carrying around coffins full of dead moments
If you see any unskillful speech (or other action) from me let me know, so I can learn from it.

Damn smug monk.
That cartoon rubs me up the wrong way.
Maybe it's the lack of irony.

He took the thought bubble though it wasn't offered; it is an offense for him.

[kammapatha & brahmavihara, & a method of arousing gladness]"
- "Others will misapprehend according to their individual views, hold on to them tenaciously and not easily discard them; we shall not misapprehend according to individual views nor hold on to them tenaciously, but shall discard them with ease — thus effacement can be done."
