no harm * 2
    #27048872 - 11/20/20 12:22 PM (3 years, 2 months ago)

I feel the earth is with a lot of violence
the world is saying it to me
seriously don't do that
we need to be taught that violence is bad
not to do it
it needs to be in schools
if you have a problem with it get help
tough it out
stay
stay till the morning
if you make it to the next dinner I take my hat off without violence and it's just an episode it takes two days to cool down then you eat dinner and odn't have a problem
seriously don't do it I'm not joking it's ugly
ive seen this
ive done this
you dont want it
communicate to the earth that violence is bad


--------------------
with our love with our love we could save the world

Being harmless is not a virtue. Although, neither is causing harm through malevolence.

Human existence is complicated and can't be philosophically reduced to "do no harm". Sometimes, such as in the defense of oneself or another, harming another may be the only option.

I think it matters more on intention. Those who intend to commit violence are perpetuating real harm to the fabric of existence. But those who may, occasionally, cause harm unintentionally, or those who do not intend to cause harm but have good reason to do so in a given circumstance, are not actively destroying our reality.

I think there is a balance due to produce the various attitudes including those which yearn for no harm and those who cause no harm. The human animal is a selfish creature and harm is first a byproduct of selfishness and then in many cases a result of trauma, being the true meaning of karma, being reborn as it is passed on from one person to another.

It is good to be a physician of the heart.

Intention is the magic key!

May I be free of the wish to harm.
May I feel deserving of love.
May I feel loved.
May I be loving.

Do no harm, but in doing so be careful not to create and condone conditions for others to do so.

I'd be interested. Ferdinando seems fairly sensitive though so I don't think there's any pressure for him to do anything he don't wanna do.

Rimbaud never gave a performance of his poetry. Just didn't want to I guess. I saw the current poet laureate give a poetry performance a year ago or something and it was out of this world. Thought he was a pretty dull poet before that too. Seats only cost five pounds. Pretty sad that I didn't have to pay more for something like that in a way, just shows how ignorant people are. Apparently a catchy beat is needed or it's worthless, poet laureate or not.

due to legal variance around the world, it is best that we preserve our non-shroomery identities.
therefore I would encourage not sharing known artwork pieces or pieces that reveal the artist's identity.

I have not shared here except for isolated parts of drawings without my signature deliberately uploaded into my Pics area (https://www.shroomery.org/forums/upload.php?action=viewthumb)

It is best not to share FLickr or instagram links

another option is to use IMAGUR

Fortunately I'm just a bum living in a country with semi reasonable drug laws so I don't really have to care about that stuff.

country of residence could be fine but what about if you wanted to go travelling?
best in that case not to be on any lists for border searching.
