That's good Zen..
Is it anything else?

AI can be good with spiritual stuff.
Quote:
-Someone said the above quote is good zen. What else could it be called?
The quote can also be described as mindfulness or meditation advice. Mindfulness is the practice of being fully present and engaged in the moment, without judgment or distraction, while meditation involves focusing the mind on a particular object, thought, or activity to cultivate inner peace and clarity. Both practices encourage non-judgmental awareness of one's thoughts and feelings, similar to the advice in the quote. Additionally, the quote aligns with principles of non-attachment in Buddhist philosophy, which emphasizes letting go of craving and attachment to attain a state of inner peace and liberation.

For 3 minutes many months ago when I was in bed belts it felt like I was driving a tractor on a construction site, I remember I ordered the nurses around.

when I was 7 I made my first marionette out of plasticine and bits of string which I looped to create hinges.
It worked amazingly well.
I only made 4 however, I did not enjoy it that much.

You're the puppet we're trying to master.

Puppet Gov'ts bend to my will; as will you, resistance is futile albeit amusing.
