Shobogenzo fascicle 57, menju (transmission)
https://i.nostr.build/SzKjdB48XxPH2M0P.jpg
As usual, I am working from the four volume set Master Dogen’s Shobogenzo (Gudo Nishijima & Chodo Cross, Windbell Publications, 1997). This fascicle is from book three and begins on page 129.
The word “menju” means transmission but really, Dōgen is talking about confirming each other through intimacy with this one moment. I’d like to start this out quite bluntly so here goes.

this seems like unreality.
we spent about a month in India in the mid 2010s. everyone there was smiling and seemed more content than people in North America by far. even the man with proteus syndrome that I gave money to was smiling.
right now in NA, people are quite angry, generally. Europe too. reified postmodernism combined with bureaucratic money grabs has robbed youth of the ability to even get a down payment together. it takes 29 years on average to get a down payment saved in Canada now.
this chart looks like a wealth per capita chart that has been edited to show 'happiness'
happiness is not dependent on wealth in fact, wealth can and does make people unhappy. it increases worry about sustaining a wealthy life and that life is becoming more difficult to sustain.
things and money do not make happiness. things are exciting for a few moments and then we just want more things. money is the same.
happiness is not measurable in any reliable or consistent sense.
happiness (contentment really) arrives on its own when we are intimate with this moment.
we can not generate happiness.
my perma smile 'happy' neighbour is miserable under her glued on fake smile and fake smiles only move in one direction and that is towards a frown.

because they don't actually hear you. they tune you out. they'll acknowledge you while you talk about it but it doesn't register.
it's a #wall and the wall is a self erected self to protect a nonexistent self
it's the same wall that Bodhidharma sat in front of, the same wall i sit in front of when i practice Zazen.
It's just that some people believe in their wall.

When I feel something like that, I notice it and use empathy as an antidote.
It's not necessarily abnormal to feel it but our feelings are supposed to teach us not rule us.
When the King/Quesn is on the throne we won't fall for it and will learn something. When the King/Queen is not home, it's harmful because we won't take action to take care of ourself, see it is harmful and end it.
Runaway emotions are a sign of immaturity in my opinion. Satipatthana prevents runaway emotions and turns them into gold.

Schadenfreude is the feeling of pleasure or joy that comes from witnessing the misfortunes of others. The term is derived from German, combining "Schaden" (harm) and "Freude" (joy) to describe this complex emotional experience.
It's antisocial IMO

I've used Mozilla on and off since the 1990s. It's no longer the same project. OpenSource does not mean that it is harmless.
