Sometimes, far too often I think, I go out on a photo walk and get caught up in the 'doing'. Mirrorless Digi Camera on 'manual', change all the things to get the shot just so. Come home and edit the RAW files, which can take an age. It's easy to get sucked into the 'do' but I'm trying to work on the 'be' (present, and just press the shutter button).

So today I walked, and shot. "Ektar 100" at ISO100, in Aperture Priority.

It is possible to discover and rediscover that a "bored person" is not who you are. Boredom is just a state of mind.

"As the sleek shinkansen bullet train glided noiselessly into the station, I watched a strange ritual begin. During the brief stop, the conductor in the last carriage began talking to himself. He proceeded to perform a series of tasks, commenting aloud on each one and vigorously gesticulating at various bits of the train all the while.

So what was he up to? You could say he’s practicing mindfulness. The Japanese call it shisa kanko (literally ‘checking and calling’), an error-prevention drill that railway employees here have been using for more than 100 years. Conductors point at the things they need to check and then name them out loud as they do them, a dialogue with themselves to ensure nothing gets overlooked.

And it seems to work. A 1994 study by Japan’s Railway Technical Research Institute, cited in The Japan Times, showed that when asked to perform a simple task workers typically make 2.38 mistakes per 100 actions. When using shisa kanko, this number reduced to just 0.38 – a massive 85% drop."

Attain

Correct Situation
Correct Relationship
Correct Function

This #zen principle is very similar to functional action in #behaviortherapy e.g. #act #acceptanceandcommitmenttherapy
#functionalkontextualism

#mindfullness

„….spontaneously attaining the
correct moment-to-moment function of truth means attaining your correct life.

It means attaining your correct situation,

attaining your correct relationship to your situation,

and attaining your correct function.

Universal substance, truth, and function come together in one spontaneous action that benefits other beings.”

It’s time for hate-based Christianity to be stopped!

Some recent media reports indicated that just prior to his passing, the late Pope Francis wrote Catholic bishops warning them not to fall for the Christian doctrine being touted by some in the current American administration, especially regarding immigration. This post will go one further. It’s not just interpretations that are the problem, it is hate-based doctrines being pushed by some Christians pitting people against one another.

As one who was raised Christian, and who has explored many facets of the religion for more than a half-century, the unfortunate increase in hateful pseudo-Christianity is hard to fathom.

Instead of preaching love and forgiveness, far too many churches have evolved into a hate-based theocracy. Nearly as bad is the prosperity gospel that claims you are rewarded monetarily for being a good Christian. It’s almost like those weird television preachers of late-night programming from our youth have somehow found an audience.

And whenever a thoughtful counter-response is expressed by those who still preach love-based beliefs, it is too often drowned-out or ridiculed by naysayers at the highest levels of government, media, and even religion. Case in point was the vitriol aimed at Bishop Budde of the National Cathedral in Washington D.C. after she advocated for compassion and mercy by the new administration.

So many 21st century Christians, especially men, are now sounding vengeful, hateful, inconsiderate, and fear-mongering. Immigrants, minorities, the poor, the unhoused, gays, those of other beliefs, and even women are being singled out and vilified. Anyone or anything that is somehow perceived as contrary to the a “white men are right” gospel have become fair game to many evangelists, priests, pastors, preachers, and parishioners.

Did any of these people actually read the New Testament? Do they know what the Beatitudes are? What grace is? Do they realize Jesus was from the Middle East and was not white? Or is it just easier (and lazier) to become a successful ministry by pushing a hate-based doctrine? This is certainly NOT the Christianity most of us grew up with.

It used to be said that one cannot act one way on Sunday and then behave another way the rest of the week. Well, today, bad behavior seems to be a week-long activity amongst some Christians. And with their easy-to-use “get out of sin jail free card” always available through confession or repentance, why should bad actors even worry about how they behave? All they have to do is confess or apologize and everything suddenly becomes hunky dory — despite how many people they harmed, hurt, or betrayed. Frankly, at some point, there has to be some form of “divine justice” for serial hate-mongers within Christianity at the time they are behaving that way. Otherwise, the faith gradually loses its credibility in the public realm.

Generally, it is believed that comeuppances for bad behavior here on Earth take place after death, as we were taught in Sunday School (a.k.a. Hell or Purgatory). However, Karma is a useful concept from Eastern religions that helps one cope with so much of the free-flying crapola taking place in the world these days.

Some might argue that believing in Karma is counter to Christianity. Perhaps, but, nearly every major religion does have some principle that relates to actions having consequences, including Christianity. Furthermore, how is Karma’s belief in “a law of cause and effect” different from the following?

• The Golden Rule: “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you;”
• Galatians 6:7. “for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap;” or
• Matthew 7:18: “A good tree bears good fruit, and a bad tree bears bad fruit;”
• Newton’s Third Law: “each action has an equal and opposite reaction;”
• Or even the old adage of: “What goes around, comes around.”

Once again, it seems that the ever-present “get out of sin jail free card” is the single biggest enabler of hate-based Christians. Why behave on Earth when eternity in Heaven is promised to those who eventually repent? Please explain how such a belief system improves life on Earth right here, right here and right now?

• Hate doesn’t end poverty.
• It doesn’t solve crimes or end wars.
• It certainly does not solve racism, bigotry, or injustice.
• Hate does not reduce sin.
• And hate absolutely does NOT promote peace, love, and understanding.

Meanwhile, living a mindful, loving, empathetic, and compassionate life while we are here on Earth would go a long way towards easing the hate-filled atmosphere pervading so much of our country and planet. All we have to do is be nice, be kind, and show others grace. Why is that so hard?

Peace!
