chastised me for drinking a beer
i will have to seek a new living arrangement
suggestions?? :melt:
I realise that I have a past to break with--an accumulation of inertia, wrong, foolishness, rot, junk. A great need of clarification, of mindfulness, or rather, of no mind. A need to return to genuine practice, right effort. Need to push on the great doubt. Need for the spirit. Hang on to the clear light.

not a monastery, just a small zen temple
schedule is a tad less harsh, sorta like zen-lite
but maybe not for much longer, eh?
i just composed an email to send off to the master
let's see what he has to say about this and then proceed
bear in mind, this fucker insisted that i get wasted when i was 100% alcohol free, back in the day
and that was when we were arising at 3 AM to begin the day

Something in the title of this thread makes me giggle like a 9 year old at a slumber party.

Why do I keep this cesspool alive?
snarg in a zen temple...I don't know why but this doesn't surprise me at all.
ps : try menthol sweets / brushing teeth they are nice
