@Taweret@timeloop.cafe "The sizes of all the trees depend on whether their capacities are superior, mediocre, or inferior"
Hey now, autumn olive isn't inferior to sequoia! This is bigotry against shrubs

@Taweret I think I need to reread this one (thankfully it's short) because I ended up having to play with Mr Mittens for most of the video. I got the basic idea (and reading posts here helped) but I missed some of the details I'd rather know.
I do like the idea of each according to their own (For enlightenment).
@lapis most of the chapters are short from this point
@Taweret oh that's wonderful.
I found out I have several extra holiday obligations (possibly extending into the new year which may be a problem for me, but we haven't ironed it out yet) so I know especially in December I may not be able to devote as much time as I'd like to to this
@lapis ch7 is kinda long but that's it. all the rest of the remaining chapters are short
@Taweret if you don't mind me asking btw how are your critters?
@Taweret The rain, which falls upon everybody, calls back to what we’ve previously read about the dharma lifting up all beings and not just a chosen few. Some of us need the same story told differently. My meds ain’t your meds.
The more-enlightened beings respond to the cured man’s hubris effectively. You can see more now: that’s good. It doesn’t mean you see and know everything yet. This feels like a stern reprimand to narrow, often but not exclusively conservative, sects.
@thatdawnperson yeah there's definitely some of that clapping back at conservative sects. (also the earlier chapter when the 5000 monks get up and leave in a snit and the Buddha is like 'good, let them good')
