อย่างพวกเรานั่งคิดทุกวัน 
ว่าจะภาวนาอย่างไร ทำอย่างไรจะดีกว่านี้ 
เห็นไหมมันมีแต่คำว่าทำ นั่นล่ะปรุงแต่งทั้งนั้น 
แต่ตรงที่คิดจะภาวนาเรียกว่าปรุงดี เป็นความปรุงดี 
ถามว่าดีไหม ดี 
แต่ถามว่าจะไปบรรลุมรรคผลนิพพานได้ไหม ไม่ได้หรอก 
ความปรุงแต่งมันขวางอยู่ 
นิพพานเป็นสภาวะที่พ้นความปรุงแต่ง 
มันก็ยังปรุงอยู่ไม่เจอหรอก แต่อาศัยปรุงดี 
แล้วค่อยๆ สะสมความรู้ถูกความเข้าใจถูกไป 
พอสัมมาทิฏฐิเราสมบูรณ์ขึ้นมา มรรคผลมันก็มีขึ้นมา 
แล้วปัญญาเราแก่รอบแล้วอริยมรรคก็จะเกิดเอง 
ไม่มีใครทำมรรคผลให้เกิดได้ 
เกิดเอง เมื่อศีล สมาธิ ปัญญาเราสมบูรณ์ ค่อยๆ ฝึก

สรุปก็คือการทำกรรมฐาน ไม่เลือกสถานที่ ไม่เลือกเวลา 
เมื่อไรมีสติระลึกรู้รูปธรรมนามธรรมที่กำลังปรากฏ 
ด้วยจิตที่ตั้งมั่น คือมีสัมมาสมาธิ แล้วก็เป็นกลาง 
เมื่อนั้นเราเดินปัญญาอยู่ 
เมื่อไรเรามีสติระลึกรู้อารมณ์อันเดียวอยู่ อันนั้นก็ภาวนาเหมือนกัน 
แต่เป็นระดับสมถกรรมฐาน ไม่ถึงวิปัสสนา

กรรมฐานไม่เลือกกาลและสถานที่ :: หลวงพ่อปราโมทย์ ปาโมชฺโช 23 ต.ค. 2564

Dr. Paul Craig Roberts discusses US-Russia tensions and corona tyranny. He doesn't see how events in Kazakhstan could've been anything else but an attempted color revolution. While prior U.S. administrations in the 20th century worked to defuse tensions with Russia, Washington today is removing safeguards, not taking security talks seriously, and is expanding NATO and military installations. Russians feel they are threatened and are taking actions to ensure their security. These developments are extremely discouraging. At the start of the pandemic, he had no reason to question the CDC and NIH. However, over time he began to see holes in the narrative. He fears many people will be injured as a result of mass experimental vaccination and we may see social collapse. He believes there must be some sort of conspiracy and can't fathom the level of global coordination going on. The lockdowns have created inflation which has created serious problems for the U.S. dollar. We don't know what else they may release. There's a tremendous amount of evil at play. If things don't clear up this year, it may very well be the end of the world.

Paul Craig Roberts: It May Well Be the End of the World #254

Biden blames Putin for his own disastrous policies, U.S. officials worry Russians will seize biolabs we funded in Ukraine, and the Department of Health and Human Services is recommending Americans enroll in an “After Vaccine Health Checker” to monitor any injuries they might sustain from the totally safe COVID vaccines.

Ep. 959 - Russia Ate My Homework

So this is a media outlet funded by a government-run "NGO" being forcefully pushed in front of millions of western eyeballs by a major Silicon Valley corporation that people have come to rely on for getting information about the world. In the same way Silicon Valley facilitates government censorship by proxy, it also facilitates government propaganda by proxy.

Abby Hatcher Theme Song (Earrape Version)

Here's a base! It's inspired by Peaceful JE, but in this edition, it's pitched up by 1, and replaces a madness song with something different. Hope you enjoy!

Why don't you keep running 
from the fears that have lost you for years
know they can bring you down

why don't you keep running 
and dreaming of freedom 
'cause you know your mind puts you down

fever always in the same season
this is a witch hunt
and no stone will be left on leaves

I'm sweating under my skin
my eyes are blurring without seeing
blue blood in dark veins
why don't you taste my brain
blue blood in dark veins
why don't you try my pain

Fever

Relax, close your eyes, and let your mind wonder.

I am playing via my MIDI controller keyboard the cellos, double basses, and the flute.  Band-in-a-Box is supplying the rest of the tracks.

This will be the opening track of a mixtape coming out late 2023
