    from The Philosophy of Zen Buddhism
    • A Zen monk should be like a cloud with no fixed abode, like flowing water with nothing to rely on. – Dogen (p61) ... The one who dwells nowhere is not at home in his self. Rather, he is a guest there. All forms of possession and possession are renounced. Neither body nor mind is mine. Dwelling nowhere is therefore opposed to the economic world of the household.
    from Weird Studies/Errol Morris, Lobsters

    from Future Fossils/Weird Studies
    • Dōgen episode of WS: singularity of the moment. Should listen to that one.
    from Weird Studies/Courses/Weirding
    • Deleuze: philosophy is nothing without non-philosophy. (eg the world is right there, we know it, Dōgen ). Phi creates concepts to help us (yeah)
