"This is it." #Bitcoin

How to respond someone who says Bitcoin isn’t real money—

Seed oils and mandatory vaccines are done for. Bitcoin standard imminent.

“Is a tree made of wood? Obviously not. A tree is wood. It’s not made of it.”

Nietzsche's concept of Eternal Recurrence is strikingly similar to the Hindu concept of Saṃsāra.

Both reflect the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth. Yet, while Nietzsche urges us to embrace the cycle, Hinduism seeks liberation from it entirely.

“And if I say, ‘Well, I’m going to get rid of my ego,’ that’s what the Taoists call ‘beating a drum in search of a fugitive.’ He hears you coming!”

Bitcoin “falls” upward.

#Bitcoin is a portal.

#Bitcoin arises.

“There is a famous Zen parable which fitly sums up this particular attitude to life. It is said that to those who know nothing of Zen mountains are just mountains, trees are just trees, and men are just men. After one has studied Zen for a little time, the emptiness and transience of all forms is perceived, and mountains are no longer mountains, trees no longer trees, and men no longer men, for while ignorant people believe in the reality of objective things, the partially enlightened see that they are only appearances, that they have no abiding reality and pass away like drifting clouds. But, the parable concludes, to him who has a full understanding of Zen mountains are once again mountains, trees are trees, and men are men.”

— Alan Watts, The Spirit of Zen

“Thus to the question, ‘How shall I escape from the Wheel of Birth and Death?’ a master replied, ‘Who puts you under restraint?’”
