O builder of this house you’re seen, you shall not build a house again, all your beams have given away, rafters of the ridge decayed, mind to the unconditioned gone, exhaustion of craving has it reached.

If you have asked me of the origination of unease, then I shall explain it to you in accordance with my understanding:
Whatever various forms of unease there are in the world, They originate founded in encumbering accumulation. (Pārāyanavagga)
'We should not congratulate someone on the success of their misdeeds, but on the contrary should endeavour to advise him or her to lead a more skilful and wholesome life. If such advice is ignored then we can only give up and let go' - Phra Panyapatipo

It's lost the endearing post-apocalyptic feel of JA's version in favour of generic early-70s US rock.
In order to redeem yourself, clap your hearers around this...

Sorry, Retro, I am with Ben on this. I loved this song and the whole album. Here is another songs from the album.
Wishing: In gladness and in safety,
May all beings be at ease.

I'm no music expert, but this is truly beautiful. A vynil version of this went up to $6000 on ebay. It lasts 5 hours and if the 5 hours are as beautiful as the first 30 min, this is a true masterpiece.
The sentence in my signature is false

By any means necessary!
I used to listen to this band when I was a teenager and they still make these ridiculous "everything is burning, exploding and our long hair is flying in the wind" music videos! They're really good for a good laugh but I think they try to be pretty serious!
