Seems like we have a new option for private messaging. Anyone tried or is security expert enough to see how this compares to NOSTR options? An old favorite comparison site of mine doesn’t have it on the list yet… I know Signal is a typical favorite but they still have mobilecoin as the only payment layer on it and you still need phone numbers to sign up 🙄 Hoping NOSTR options are keeping up with this evolving field. Who has their best suggestion for Signal app replacement (multi mobile platform too)? #messengers #technology #nostr #signal #keet

“Buddha told us, the people that take incarnation on this plane have greed. And it's an interesting balance. We've been struggling with these balances, like the balance between business and government. If business rules, which it has been doing, and multinationals and all, it's piracy. If government rules all by itself, it's tyranny. Our balance is between piracy and tyranny.” #photography #philosophy #mindfulness #ramdass From Ram Dass Here And Now: Ep. 184 – Tools of Balance, Aug 5, 2021 image

Where are the real warriors when we need them? The ones who sacrificed their egos to represent their people and not themselves. The ones that literally led an army by the front and not by the back, well protected, like a coward. The ones that led by example, showing not just their own people, but other warriors too, who they could be if they loved their people as much. Or am I that warrior, already doing all that, but with a much smaller group, like my family or community? Daily working at it so I remain the warrior if called upon by others to protect them too? #photography #mindfulness image

Does desire create your universe? Did it create ours? It could be the most fundamental thought process to understand the creator’s expansion of this universe. #photography #philosophy #mindfullness #ramdass image

If you read or listen to the news. Remember to take a break and take time to reflect on what you are feeling. With how the world is so connected now more than ever, it’s too easy to get too much information, especially if you don’t act on it, it just becomes entertainment, and many times like a horror film, not healthy consistently (or maybe at all). So when people say touch grass, they mean with your mind too. Come back to the reality you live in, to the earth we all share and you do what you can to preserve the peace and health of yourself and those around you. #photography #mindfullness #news #nature image

We don’t give up our power when we vote, but share it with the elected one. Lest we forget, you can remove that power from the elected one if that one abuses it. Do not be deceived that somehow your power has been removed, and one of the most peaceful way of doing this is by opting out of that system. #photography #politics #bitcoin image

It said by those who are enlightened that once you understand how karma is a function to your enlightenment, you would not want to go back in time to fix anything. That the universe is unfolding perfectly, even though we may not understand how there can be so much suffering if that is true. But without the suffering you had in your life, you may have never gotten to be enlightened. There’s a good scene in the Matrix that reminds me of that scene where Cypher says “Ignorance is bliss” and how he wanted to forget the truth and go back to the illusion. Almost like time travelling. (I was lucky enough to get in the Delorean to see the real thing, but never took it to 88🙂) #photography #philosophy #mindfulness #ramdass image

You are more profound, more richer, than any story line. What you experience and even choose in your life is the story you are building. But you are not the story, nor the pages of the book you believe might be your body. Delight in life, knowing it is both beautiful, but temporary. But no worries, when your book closes, the author still remains. #photography #philosophy #mindfulness #ramdass image

Enlightenment requires you to sacrifice your own suffering. Not everyone is ready to do this, but when you are, you’ll start to use it as a tool towards leaving who you think you are that is suffering… to who you really are. #photography #philosophy #mindfulness #ramdass image
