Enjoying the evening, listening to the bitcoin standard 😊
Awareness of the way you feel inside when you get “offended” and just observe this feeling that will be in your body/mind and stay calm with it until it dissipates. No blind reaction.
Ask why did this offend me? Usually we are defending an opinion or belief we hold deeply (ego).
Been practicing this for 8 yrs, it’s simple but not easy, our mind is conditioned to react to things coming in and we do it all the time, but we have a choice in the matter and with practice of awareness and equanimity we can start to make a change to the habit pattern of the mind from blind reaction to less reaction.
What others think about you is none of your business.
To know we don’t know most things is to open the mind to possibility 🤙

Imagine who we could be as a people if we woke up one day and realized that we’re all the same. https://nostr.build/av/f76d9d4b0016239f7c64648d3cebe91f25e63b1dcbc8a5400485825e4faedac0.mov
This is on us, this is our work.
In my experience when we can hold many viewpoints and remain objective we have a greater sense of the situation and can make better decisions going forward.
Perspective vs perception
Remove expectations and replace them with agreements, with yourself and others.
Good note on how we don’t see BTC as it is but rather how we are.
Oh wow, thanks nostr:npub1n8x0e9dpq7yyphvmat8myqc6h6zenex0cydxrg739e842jnykn6qezwa6l !!

The fact this is still controversial is a great thing for many.

You ever heard of Vipassana meditation?
