I've been working to develop new mastery of the Mac OS environment (mainly key commands) after using the platform almost exclusively for 37 years, and boy, do I feel dim. All this makes me wonder if I'm even capable of the deeper dive into Linux and RPi that I've been wanting to make, because I think my brain plasticity has congealed with age. Back in my youth, on my SE/30, my workflow was like a river of the tao, but these days? Yeesh.

Zen isn’t originally Japanese. It began in India as "Dhyāna", transformed into "Chan" in China, "Seon" in Korea—and finally became "Zen" in Japan and the West. But the real point isn’t the name… It’s dissolving the self and waking up to oneness. #Zen #Buddhism #Enlightenment #SpiritualAwakening #Meditation #Chan #Seon #Dhyana #FlowState youtube.com/shorts/nL60xv0qQzA

Meditation isn’t just stillness—it can be movement, creativity, and action. When you focus fully on what you’re doing, that act becomes your mantra. From dancing to martial arts, walking to painting, Zen is found in flow. 🎨🚶‍♀️🧘‍♂️ #MovingMeditation #ZenInAction #FlowState #EverydayMindfulness #meditation #zen youtube.com/shorts/pX0gb4tDxHY

I haven't done any wood carving for a couple of years, so I probably shouldn't have just jumped in with a couple of hours of it today. My hands are tired and are prob going to be sore tomorrow!

It's one of those activities prone to #flowState, and the hours disappear easily. One should probably set an alarm and have a specific goal in mind before starting.
