A monkey grasping at fruit — symbol of upādāna (clinging). In this image, generated by DALL•e and inspired by the aesthetic of classical Japanese emakimono, a monkey stretches toward a piece of fruit that remains just beyond its grasp. The motif allegorically represents upādāna, the ninth link in the chain of dependent origination (paṭicca-samuppāda) in Buddhist philosophy. upādāna, translated as clinging, grasping, or appropriation, is the mental act of attaching to objects, identities, or experiences under the illusion that they can provide lasting satisfaction. The monkey — traditionally a symbol of the restless and desirous mind in Buddhism — embodies this futile pursuit, suspended in a moment of tension between craving and attainment. The fruit, vivid and seemingly attainable, signifies the transient pleasures that sustain saṃsāra, the cycle of suffering and rebirth. Source: Created with DALL•E.

() is central in Buddhist philosophy as the root cause of suffering () and the cycle of rebirth (). In this post, I explore its psychological and existential dimensions, its role in the , and the Buddhist path to overcoming craving for liberation:

Demonic figure with a flaming head from the Japanese emakimono Kako genzai e-inga-kyō (The Illustrated Sutra of Past and Present Karma), 13th century (Kamakura period). Scene from the temptations and meditative trials of the Buddha. This narrative handscroll illustrates karmic causality through visual allegory. The exaggerated features of the figure shown in this excerpt — bulging eyes, sharp teeth, clawed limbs — and especially the fiery crown, mark it as an embodiment of dangerous inner forces. Its grotesque, animated posture suggests aggression and disruption, typical of depictions of Māra’s army attempting to obstruct the Buddha’s path to awakening. The flaming motif is deeply symbolic in Buddhist thought, especially in the context of taṇhā (Pāli; Sanskrit: tṛṣṇā), or “craving” — a central cause of suffering in the Four Noble Truths.

The unsent messages
The untold words
The #craving
Will it ever end?
The what-ifs
Will we drown in doubts
Or will we find a happy end?

“my first madness” – new poem!

This poem has been rattling around my brain for about the last six hours or so, and it finally spilled out of me in full. Enjoy!

****

in the beginning, I craved –
and desire was my first madness

I tirelessly desired everything I
could sink my curved little hands into

I desired everything the world told me I would never have –

and now, I have everything

I only feel ancient, tired, and hungry when I starve myself of that immortal craving

tell me that desire for desire’s sake is evil and I will show you how I creak like an
old house without it

and flow like water with it

and ask, have you never wanted something so bad you were willing to bleed sunlight
for it?

-Allēna

We should reopen and #evangelize #libraries, and I think everyone should spend a few hours per week just finding any book on any topic and reading it cover to cover. There's still something to be said about holding a #book, especially an old one, in your hands. Flipping the pages. Absorbing its scent. Not saying you can't get the same experience digitally, but many people don't use their digital devices for true #learning and #cognitive growth. Apps and games aren't the same.

It's how I grew up and fed my deepest #addiction - #learning - spending hours in the library and just reading. The Internet barely existed. That's true knowledge. Ever learning. Ever #craving more. And I believe knowledge is true power.

Tengo que estar prácticamente un mes (menos algún fin de semana) fuera de casa.. Voy a intentar aprovechar el tirón para dejar de consumir Cannabis, sustancia que llevo utilizando más de 10 años con todos los problemas derivados de ello con el añadido de mi esquema mental y cómo le afecta..

I am craving some good coffee. And I have a lot of coffee but none of it is any good.

Can't afford to go out at this hour.
