“Tea first came to Japan in the sixth century by way of Japanese Buddhist monks, scholars, warriors, and merchants who traveled to China and brought back tea pressed into bricks. It was not until 1911, during the Song dynasty, that the Japanese Buddhist priest Eisai (also known as Yosai) carried home from China fine-quality tea seeds and the method for making matcha (powdered green tea). The tea seeds were cultivated on the grounds of several Kyoto temples and later in such areas as the Uji district just south of Kyoto.
Following the Chinese traditional method, Japanese Zen monks would steam, dry, then grind the tiny green tea leaves into a fine powder and whip it with a bamboo whisk in boiling water to create a thick medicinal drink to stimulate the senses during long periods of meditation.”

“The A.W.E. Method
A.W.E stands for Attention, Wait, Exhale and Expand.
Attention means
Focusing your full and undivided attention on something you value, appreciate or find amazing.
Wait means slowing down or pausing.
Exhale and Expand amplifies whatever sensations you are experiencing.
A.W.E. is a quick and easy intervention that can cultivate awe in the ordinary, at any time and in any place.
Cultivating awe for less than a minute a day reduces symptoms of depression and anxiety, improves social connection, decreases loneliness, reduces burnout, lowers stress, increases wellbeing and reduces chronic pain.
The capacity to help heal the mind and body is only one of awe's superpowers.”

“The laws of math and science are different from the rules we are looking at here. Those laws describe precise relationships in the physical world, which we know to be true by testing them against the world itself.
The rules artists learn are different. They are assumptions, not absolutes. They describe a goal or method for short-term or long-term results. They
are there to be tested. And they are only of value as long as they are helpful. They are not laws of nature.”

“For St George knew very well what all real soldiers know; that the only way to be even approximately likely to kill a dragon is to give the dragon a heavy chance of killing you. And this method, which is the only one, is much too unpleasant to be talked about.”

“But my method nonetheless embodies a thesis: the details and the counter-narratives revealed in this genetic micro-focus constitute an attack on 鈥榮emperidentity鈥, on 鈥榓lways-sameness鈥. Such continuous identity is supposed to lie鈥攁s ideologies of mythic monologic thinking would have us believe鈥攁rchetypally within us all. The amplificatory character of Joyce鈥檚 writing, as traced in this study, reflects the comic theme of an idealized popular resurrection.”

“Someone who thinks up a new theory is the last person who should be trusted with the job of testing it. A new theory should be tested by independent researchers who aren鈥檛 cronies of the theorist and who don鈥檛 have an axe to grind. It鈥檚 division of labor again: proposing theories and doing research to test them are jobs that should be carried out by different entities.
鈥淎 good theory should go in advance of the evidence,鈥 the evolutionary psychologist Geoffrey Miller said in a recent interview. 鈥淚t should stick its neck out and say, this is how I think the world is, and leave it to other people to test it.鈥
Making a virtue of necessity, I will leave it to other people to test my theory.”

“The psychoanalytic method, in its originary moment, works not with keys but with screwdrivers. It dismantles locks, rather than opening them. Only thus, by breaking and entering, does it attempt to get at the terrible and laughable treasure of unconscious signifiers.”

“What I love about the Law of Assumption is that it鈥檚 not a method that needs to be overcomplicated. It is a state of being that gets easier and easier to rest in as you keep immersing yourself in it.”

“A force of spare direct necessity
Reduced the heavy framework of man鈥檚 days
And his overburdening mass of outward needs
To a first thin strip of simple animal wants,
And the mighty wideness of the primitive earth
And the brooding multitude of patient trees
And the musing sapphire leisure of the sky
And the solemn weight of the slowly passing months
Had left in her deep room for thought and God.

“A un famoso poeta giapponese fu domandato come si componga una poesia cinese. 芦La consueta poesia cinese 猫 di quattro versi禄 spieg貌 lui.
芦Nel primo verso c鈥櫭 la premessa; nel secondo c鈥櫭 la continuazione di quella premessa; il terzo verso si allontana dall鈥檃rgomento e ne comincia uno nuovo; e il quarto verso collega i primi tre. Un canto popolare giapponese esemplifica quanto ho detto:
A Kyoto vivono le due figlie di un mercante di seta.
La pi霉 grande ha vent鈥檃nni, la pi霉 giovane diciotto.
Un soldato pu貌 anche uccidere con la sua spada,
Ma queste ragazze uccidono gli uomini coi loro occhi. (101 Storie Zen, Vari autori)”

“Scaling is not a goal. It's a method. Goal to scale a remote mountain? Fastest way is to drop in from a helicopter. Doing it by foot is a choice, not a result.”

“There is no point in scaling if it leaves you scaled and shedding skins you wish you鈥檇 never worn.
Scale with what you would do with your time once you 鈥渕ade it.鈥
It鈥檚 probably free (or less expensive than you thought).
Then build around that freedom, protect it and expand.”
