🌵📚🦋 please <3

Hi Michelle! Thank you!! (Writer’s Truth or Dare Ask Game)

🌵 ⇢ share the link to a playlist you love

Okay so I won’t be linking to my playlists bc I don’t want to share my full name on a post for everybody to see and connect to my blog hehe but! I am quite fond of my playlists, so what I will do is share 5 songs from my recently most listened to playlists!

Travel Rhythms:

Cruisin’ by Smokey Robinson

On the Road Again by Canned Heat

Ship of Fools by The Doors (as I’ve probably mentioned too many times my recent travels was mainly on a sailing boat so I thought I was being quite funny with this one lol)

Me and Bobby McGee by Janis Joplin

California Soul by Marlena Shaw

Calm Playlist (overlaps by a Playlisr directly translated to ‘Calm and Yoga Without Sadness lol and Calm Travel Rhythms):

Kathy’s Song by Eva Cassidy

Myth by Beach House

Manhattan by Cat Power

Boxing Day Blues by Courtney Barnett

VCR by The XX

Dancing Playlist 🕺

Psycho Killer by Talking Heads

It’s Raining Men by The Weather Girls

American Boy by Estelle

We Are Family by The Sister Sledge

What a Diff’rence a Day Makes by Esther Phillips

Family Affair by Mary J. Blige

.. Oops I kept going 🫣 I miss dancing, I have not done it enough in the last yeah so I got lost in my playlist heheh

Ahahahha that was not a correct answer to this question but those are all features in my playlists so if you added them all together I guess you’d have one playlist with very mixed moods lol

Also sorry to go overboard, I was the kid whose friends never let me be the one to control the music so when I get the chance to share from my playlists…

📚 ⇢ what's the last thing you wrote down in your notes app?

I’ve opened and moved my notes around today and I was up too late last night so I’m actually not sure which was the last so here are 3 options:

1) That @lemonlyman-dotcom’s fic Love Of My Life ..Pain In My Ass! Should go in the not yet established Hall Of Fame of TK Strand Shenanigan/TK being the greatest adventure of Carlos’ life - centered fics!

And 2) quotes from @strandnreyes’s new fic all is not lost as well as that Jen is the true master of Married Tarlos Fics Now Turned Canon

- both in preparation of forming coherent ways of drizzling them with the love I feel for them in the comments, which I struggle with due to a brain that is 90% air moving around sometimes when I try to concentrate

(For Jen and Lemon, even though I don’t have that much reach in the fandom, links and mentions are intended to function as fic and author recs and not ways to get your attention btw🫣🫣)

And 3) the sentence “I’m gonna come” from a fic I’m working on that was supposed to be crack but has turned into mostly filth, introspection, sexual headcanons and a smidge of angst 🙃🙃

🦋 ⇢ share something that has been on your heart and mind lately 

Soo many things!!

1) I need me a place to live in the city that I’m supposed to resume my studies in, in the fall - and I need to not live with my parents anymore, as I’ve been doing temporarily between travels to not have an empty studio to pay rent to, even though I love them.. I need my young-person independent life back!! I need alone time, to go out dancing, have my own structure, and to start dating again lol.

2) my friends are sailing their boat home from Florida and they need help and I want to so badly, but everything in my life is so unset so I can’t make a decision.. also I can’t find out if I’m too afraid to cross the Atlantic Ocean in a 51 foot sailing boat 🫣🌊 They’re departing on the 27th so I’m feeling the pressure of needing to make a decision.

3) Fandom has been a lot on my mind lately! Though fandom has been part of my life for many many years, I have been mostly lurking until some few years ago. But even then, I have switched from one fandom that sort of dwindled over to LS, and getting into that has been interrupted by Life and Studies and Travels. It means a lot to me to enter into fandom and make it part of my life and free time to actually spend time on that interest, and create and interact bc I really love it. But it being kind of new also means I haven’t found the right balance yet (it doesn’t help that I’m living at my parents’ and are not fully able to structure my own time or have quiet alone time other than late at night) and I’m still treading carefully and overthinking a bit about how to interact and what are the lingo and unspoken rules and how does the making friends and so on work bc I don’t have a lot of experience with internet relations. In real life I usually find people and over share with them and then they over share with me and then we know each other and how to be and you can read from tone or face if you’re stepping over some line or pushing some wrong button and you can talk about it without having to make it a big thing by basically sending an email with an ‘Am I being annoying’ hehehe🙃

I loove fandom, this one in particular ! - not only are you all so talented but I’ve fallen into this bubble of incredibly nice and funny and level-headed people and Tarlos + all the other characters and all the rep (nuanced queer characters arghhgr) and love (canon soulmates arggshg) and sexiness and silliness gives me so much joy so that’s mostly why it’s on my mind, but definitely the learning to navigate both within fandom and in relation to Life is a big part of it!

Thank you again Michelle lol if you even made it this far, SORRY I can not be short and concise, it has turned out to be impossible.:) happy whatever day it is where you are! (Here it just turned Wednesday)☺️🌼

distracted. - C.S

_

Summery📚: Chris and eva are at dinner, but Chris’s attention isn’t really on dinner or Eva. when eva finally gets tired of it she gets up and makes her aggravation noticed he doesn’t handle it so well.. until.

Mostly proof read sorry (not really)

—

7:30 pm

We’re sitting at the restaurant, Me and Chris. Sitting in silence the only sound heard is people forks and knife’s hitting their plates.

“Chris” I sigh, of course no response. “CHRIS” I shout standing; if you’re wondering, the answer is yes. it caught his attention.

“The fuck are you yelling for Eva” he rolled his eyes sitting his phone on the table “why did you ask me here? Why didn’t you just ask the bitch your texting to go out with you” I asked grabbing my bag “Eva just sit down, you’re always acting like a fucking brat” he mumbled standing up “okay” a nod was all I could give him.

*ding*

“Aren’t you gonna answer that?” Tilting my head I asked rhetorically before walking off, “where are you going Eva I’m your way home” Chris shakes his head sitting the cash for the food on the table chasing after me.

I stand by the car waiting knowing it’s gonna be a long drive.

-

Home

“I mean I just don’t understand why you had to be on your phone? Who were you texting?” I yell “just shut the fuck up I’m tired” he shouts back pushing me kind of hard “I hate you” I start to tear up “yeah tell your lies all you want maybe someone will believe em” Chris snickers, getting undressed to change. “Yeah like that bitch believes the stupid shit you tell her?” he looks at me completely fed up “what’s wrong? Hm? are you sensitive about her? I’ve been here for a year and a half but as long as you have feelings for someone right? and what, does she fuck better too? Whole package deal huh?”

“Since you think you know everything let me tell you” he gets closer “I was texting Nick and Matt, I’ve been living with them my whole fucking life but I was ready to move in with you and start something new, so fuck you Eva. and even if I was for some dumb ass reason texting some other wack ass bitch I’ll never. Ever have feelings for anyone more than you, and no body will ever touch me better than the way you touch me. So sit down shut the fuck up or undress and scream my name” he put his hand on my wrist putting his forehead to mine.

“Second option” I mumble staring at my shoes “come on then” he picks me up, my legs around his waist “you’ve been making me mad all day, yelling in public? making up shit about me cheating” he kisses my lips my red lipstick leaving marks “I’m sorry Chris I really am” i plead “I know, I’m sorry about how rough I was with you, and for how rough I’m about to be”, I was now lying down and Chris was gently slipping our clothes off

“I thought you were gonna be rough” sighing as I helped him undress us both “not yet, rough after I go slow with you to show you I love you” Chris kissed my chest then my stomach and the slid his way between my naked legs “mm we both deserve this” he kisses my clit, slipping in his slender index finger “fuck Chris” immediate moans leaving my mouth “shh I love you baby, I’m sorry for not giving you the attention you deserve” he almost moaned adding another finger slowly curling them both “I love your hands but I don’t want them right now come on Chris I want youuu” immediately he pulls the out standing between my legs still

“You want this?” He asked rhetorically holding his dick over my stomach “yes” reaching down to grab and stroke it a few times I was desperate. “Shit” Chris groaned talking his dick in my clit then slidding down and pushing it in my hand immediately flying to his stomach “yeah? You like that” he moves my hand gently and holds it for a good minute, gently slipping in and out of me. My hand flys back to his stomach feeling a pit rise in my stomach “move your fucking hand Eva” “I cant Chris fuck” moving his Hand from my thigh and stomach he pins my hand down and begins to pound roughly “what’d I tell you, I told you I’d get rough eventually” “fuck fuck fuck” screaming brutally.

“Get on top before I cum” he demands pulling out, gently, kissing my clit and laying on his back “mm one second” I say getting off the bed to grab my red lipstick and refreshing it “come onnn I’m close” I blow a kiss at the mirror walking back to the boy.

Crawling over his legs arching my back to place kisses on his face, neck and chest area

“You’re so handsome Chris” I say hovering above his dick slowly falling onto it, but quickly speeding up. “You got it mama” that alone made me ready to cum, yet when his hands flew to my waist and shoved me down and up harder “IM CUMMING CHRIS” “me too, I’ll let go when you do” “FUCK NGHHH” collapsing releasing cream all down him, Chris following immediately after “don’t ever ask if another female fucks better than you again, you just made me float” he laughed out of breath, I did too my head on his chest with him still in me.

“I love you so much Eva”

“I love you too Chris, just don’t ever get distracted like that again when we’re out together” I say sitting up looking at the mess between us

“Yes ma’am” he kisses my lips once more as we get up to shower.

🌹 Bhagavad-Gita as It is - 459 🌹 ✍️ Sri Prabhupada, 📚 Prasad Bharadwaj 🌴 Chapter 11 - Viswaroopa Sandarsana Yoga - 45 🌴 45. adṛṣṭa-pūrvaṁ hṛṣito ’smi dṛṣṭvā bhayena ca pravyathitaṁ mano me tad eva me darśaya deva rūpaṁ prasīda deveśa jagan-nivāsa 🌷 Translation : After seeing this universal form, which I have never seen before, I am gladdened, but at the same time my mind is disturbed with fear. Therefore please bestow Your grace upon me and reveal again Your form as the Personality of Godhead, O Lord of lords, O abode of the universe.

🌹 Purport : Arjuna is always in confidence with Kṛṣṇa because he is a very dear friend, and as a dear friend is gladdened by his friend’s opulence, Arjuna is very joyful to see that his friend Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Personality of Godhead and can show such a wonderful universal form. But at the same time, after seeing that universal form, he is afraid that he has committed so many offenses to Kṛṣṇa out of his unalloyed friendship. Thus his mind is disturbed out of fear, although he had no reason to fear. Arjuna therefore is asking Kṛṣṇa to show His Nārāyaṇa form, because He can assume any form. This universal form is material and temporary, as the material world is temporary. But in the Vaikuṇṭha planets He has His transcendental form with four hands as Nārāyaṇa.

There are innumerable planets in the spiritual sky, and in each of them Kṛṣṇa is present by His plenary manifestations of different names. Thus Arjuna desired to see one of the forms manifest in the Vaikuṇṭha planets. Of course in each Vaikuṇṭha planet the form of Nārāyaṇa is four-handed, but the four hands hold different arrangements of symbols – the conchshell, mace, lotus and disc. According to the different hands these four things are held in, the Nārāyaṇas are variously named. All of these forms are one with Kṛṣṇa; therefore Arjuna requests to see His four-handed feature.

కపిల గీత - 352 / Kapila Gita - 352

🌹. కపిల గీత - 352 / Kapila Gita - 352 🌹 🍀. కపిల దేవహూతి సంవాదం 🍀 ✍️. ప్రసాద్‌ భరధ్వాజ 🌴 8. ధూమ - అర్చిరాది మార్గములద్వారా వెళ్ళువారి గతి - భక్తియోగ విశిష్టత - 35 🌴 35. యోగేన వివిధాంగేన భక్తియోగేన చైవ హి| ధర్మేణోభయచిహ్నేన యః ప్రవృత్తినివృత్తిమా��్॥

తాత్పర్యము : మనోనిగ్రహము, ఇంద్రియ సంయమనము, కర్మఫల త్యాగము, అష్టాంగయోగము, భక్తి యోగము, ప్రవృత్తి నివృత్తి మార్గములు మొదలగు సాధనముల ద్వారా కూడా భగవంతుని పొందవచ్చును.

వ్యాఖ్య : భక్తి-యోగేన చైవ హి అనే పదాల అర్థం, 34వ శ్లోకంలో వివరించినట్లుగా, యోగా లేదా త్యాగం లేదా ఫలవంతమైన కార్యకలాపం లేదా వేద సాహిత్యం లేదా తాత్విక పరిశోధన లేదా త్యజించిన జీవన క్రమాన్ని అంగీకరించడం వంటివి నిర్వహించాలి. భక్తి-యోగాలో. ఏదైనా నిర్దేశించబడిన కార్యమైనా పరమాత్మ కోసమే నిర్వహించాలి. ఇది భగవద్గీత ( BG 9.27 ),లో ధృవీకరించబడింది: 'మీరు ఏమి చేసినా, మీరు ఏమి తిన్నా, మీరు ఏమి త్యాగం చేసినా, మీరు ఏ తపస్సు చేసినా మరియు మీరు ఏ దానధర్మాలు చేసినా ఫలితం పరమేశ్వరునికి ఇవ్వాలి. 'ఎవా అనే పదం జోడించబడింది, అంటే అన్ని కార్యకలాపాలకు భక్తితో కూడిన సేవను జోడించకపోతే, అతను ఆశించిన ఫలితాన్ని సాధించలేడు, కానీ ప్రతి చర్యలో భక్తి-యోగం ప్రముఖంగా ఉన్నప్పుడు, అంతిమ లక్ష్యం ఖచ్చితంగా ఉంటుంది. ధర్మేణోభయ-చిహ్నేన అనే పదాల అర్థం భక్తి-యోగ ప్రక్రియ రెండు లక్షణాలను కలిగి ఉంటుంది, అవి పరమాత్మ పట్ల అనుబంధం మరియు అన్ని భౌతిక సంబంధాల నుండి నిర్లిప్తత.

సశేషం..

🌹 Kapila Gita - 352 🌹 🍀 Conversation of Kapila and Devahuti 🍀 📚 Prasad Bharadwaj 🌴 8. Entanglement in Fruitive Activities - 35 🌴 35. yogena vividhāṅgena bhakti-yogena caiva hi dharmeṇobhaya-cihnena yaḥ pravṛtti-nivṛttimān

MEANING : by controlling the mind, by subduing the senses, by accepting the renounced order of life and by performing the different divisions of yoga practice, by performing devotional service containing the symptoms of both attachment and detachment; one can also realize the Godhead.

PURPORT : The words bhakti-yogena caiva hi mean that whatever is to be performed, as described in verse 34, whether yoga or sacrifice or fruitive activity or study of Vedic literature or philosophical research or acceptance of the renounced order of life, is to be executed in bhakti-yoga. Any prescribed activity must be performed for the sake of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. It is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (BG 9.27), yat karoṣi yad aśnāsi: "Whatever you do, whatever you eat, whatever you sacrifice, whatever austerities you undergo and whatever charities you give, the result should be given to the Supreme Lord." The word eva is added, indicating that one must execute activities in such a way. Unless one adds devotional service to all activities, he cannot achieve the desired result, but when bhakti-yoga is prominent in every activity, then the ultimate goal is sure. The words dharmeṇobhaya-cihnena mean that the bhakti-yoga process contains two symptoms, namely attachment for the Supreme Lord and detachment from all material affinities.

31. yadā bhūta-pṛthag-bhāvam eka-stham anupaśyati tata eva ca vistāraṁ brahma sampadyate tadā

🌷 Translation : When a sensible man ceases to see different identities due to different material bodies and he sees how beings are expanded everywhere, he attains to the Brahman conception.

🌹 Purport : When one can see that the various bodies of living entities arise due to the different desires of the individual soul and do not actually belong to the soul itself, one actually sees. In the material conception of life, we find someone a demigod, someone a human being, a dog, a cat, etc. This is material vision, not actual vision.

This material differentiation is due to a material conception of life. After the destruction of the material body, the spirit soul is one. The spirit soul, due to contact with material nature, gets different types of bodies. When one can see this, he attains spiritual vision; thus being freed from differentiations like man, animal, big, low, etc., one becomes purified in his consciousness and able to develop Kṛṣṇa consciousness in his spiritual identity. How he then sees things will be explained in the next verse. 🌹 🌹 🌹 🌹 🌹

🌻 Śaṅkhacūḍa fights with the full contingent of his army - 2 🌻

Many thousands of headless bodies danced in the battle field. There was a great tumult that terrified the cowards.

Again Kārttikeya became furiously angry and showered volleys of arrows. He struck crores of leaders of the Asuras within a trice.

The Dānavas wounded in their bodies by the numerous arrows of Kārttikeya fled in fright. Those who remained were killed.

Vṛṣaparvan, Vipracitti, Daṇḍa, and Vikampana fought with Kārttikeya by turns.

Mahāmāri also fought. She was never routed. All of them afflicted by Kārttikeya’s spear were wounded.

O sage, Mahāmārī and Skanda won the battle. Big wardrums were sounded in the heaven. Showers of flowers fell down.

16-17. On seeing the wonderfully terrible fight of Kārttikeya that caused wastage in the rank and file of the Dānavas like natural disasters, as well as the harassment and havoc wrought by Mahāmāri, Śaṅkhacūḍa became furious and himself got ready for the battle.

18-19. He got into his excellent aerial chariot that contained different weapons and missiles, that was set in diamond and that encouraged and emboldened the heroes. Śaṅkhacūḍa drew the string of the bow upto his ear and discharged volleys of arrows from his seat in the middle of the chariot. He was accompanied by many heroes.

His volley of arrows was terrifying. It could not be withstood. A terrible darkness spread in the battlefield.

The gods Nandīśvara and others fled. Only Kārttikeya stayed behind in the battle field.

🍀 133. ఏమీ జరగడం లేదు 🍀

🕉 నిశ్శబ్దంగా అనిపించడం కూడా ఒక జరగడమే మరియు ఇది ఇతర శబ్దాల కంటే గొప్ప జరగడం. 🕉

మీరు ఏడుస్తున్నప్పుడు లేదా అరుస్తున్నప్పుడు, ఏదో జరుగుతున్నట్లు మీకు అనిపిస్తుంది. మీరు ఏడవనప్పుడు, అరవకుండా, కేకలు వేయనప్పుడు, గాఢమైన నిశ్శబ్దాన్ని అనుభవిస్తున్నప్పుడు, ఏమీ జరగడం లేదని మీరు అనుకుంటారు. ఇది కూడా గొప్ప సంఘటన అని, మిగతా వాటి కంటే గొప్పదని మీకు తెలియదు. నిజానికి, ఆ ఇతర క్షణాలు దీనికి మార్గం సుగమం చేశాయి. ఇదే లక్ష్యం. అవి సాధనాలు మాత్రమే. కానీ మొదట్లో అది ఖాళీగా కనిపిస్తుంది, అంతా పోయినట్లు. మీరు కూర్చున్నారు, ఏమీ జరగడం లేదు. ఏమీ జరగడం లేదు, కానీ ఏమీ జరగకపోవడం సకారత్మకంగా ఉంటుంది. ఇది ప్రపంచంలోనే అత్యంత సకారత్మకమైన విషయం. బుద్ధుడు ఏదీ కానిదాన్ని నిర్వాణం, అంతిమమని పేర్కొన్నాడు. కాబట్టి దానిని అనుమతించండి, దానిని గౌరవించండి మరియు ఇది మరింత జరగనివ్వండి, దానిని స్వాగతించండి. ఇది జరిగినప్పుడు మీ కళ్ళు మూసుకుని ఆస్వాదించండి, తద్వారా ఇది తరచుగా వస్తుంది. ఇది నిధి. కానీ మొదట్లో, ఇది అందరికీ జరుగుతుందని నేను అర్థం చేసుకోగలను.

ప్రజలు విస్ఫోటకం అని పిలిచే అనేక అంశాలు ఉన్నాయి. అవి అదృశ్యమై అసలు విషయం వచ్చినప్పుడు, అది ఏమిటో వారికి ఏ మాత్రం తెలియదు అంతేకాక వారికి తమ విస్ఫోటకాల లోటు కలుగుతుంది. ఆ విస్ఫోటకాలు మళ్లీ జరగాలని వారు కోరుకుంటారు. వారు దాన్ని బలవంతం చేయడం మొదలుపెట్టి మొత్తం నాశనం చేస్తారు. కాబట్టి వేచి ఉండండి. ఏదైనా దానంతట అదే విస్ఫోటిస్తే పర్వాలేదు కానీ బలవంతం చేయకండి. నిశ్శబ్దం విస్ఫోటిస్తే, ఆస్వాదించండి. మీరు దాని గురించి సంతోషపడాలి! ఇది ప్రపంచ ప్రజల దుస్థితి-ఏది ఏమిటో తెలియదు, కాబట్టి కొన్నిసార్లు వారు దుఃఖంలో ఉన్నప్పుడు సంతోషంగా ఉంటారు మరికొన్నిసార్లు వారు సంతోషంగా ఉండాల్సినప్పుడు, ఆనందం నిజంగా దగ్గరగా ఉన్నప్పుడు, దుఃఖానికి గురవుతారు.

🍀 133. NOTHING HAPPENING 🍀

🕉  Feeling quiet is also a happening and it is a greater happening than other things that are noisy.  🕉

When you are crying or shouting, you feel that something is happening. When you are not crying, not shouting, not screaming, just feeling a deep silence, you think nothing is happening. You don't know that this too is a great happening, greater than the others. In fact, those other moments have paved the way for this one. This is the goal. They are just the means. But in the beginning it will look empty, everything gone. You are sitting, and nothing is happening. Nothing is happening, and "nothing" is very positive. It is the most positive thing in the world. Buddha has called that nothing is Nirvana, the Ultimate. So allow it, cherish it, and let it happen more, welcome it. When it happens just close your eyes and enjoy it so it comes more often. This is the treasure. But in the beginning, I can understand, it happens to everybody.

There are many things people call explosions. When they disappear and the real thing comes, they don't have any notion of what it is and they simply miss their explosions. They would like those explosions to happen again. They may even start forcing them, but they will destroy the whole thing. So wait. If something explodes on its own, it is okay, but don't force it. If silence is exploding, enjoy it. You should be happy about it !  This is the misery of the world-people don't know what is what, so sometimes they are happy when they are miserable and sometimes when they should be happy, when happiness is really close, they become miserable.

సాక్షాత్తు మహాకాళి ఆమెను ఆవహిస్తున్నది. మీతో జరగబోయే మహాయుద్ధంలో అత్యవసర సమయంలో ఆమెను రణరంగానికి తీసుకువస్తారు. ఆమె దిగంబర ముక్త కేశ. చంపబడిన వారి బాహువులను నడుముకు కాంచికగా ధరించి ఉంటుంది. ఆమె నోటిలోనుండి మంటలు వస్తుంటవి. ఆమె చేతులలోకి వాటంతట అవి ఖడ్గశూలాదులు వస్తుంటవి. వాటితో ఆమె మీ సైన్యమును సంహరిస్తూ ఉంటుంది. మీ ఆయుధములు ఆమె మీద పనిచేయవు. ఆమె అజేయ పరాక్రమ. ఆమెకు సమరములో హరసిద్ధుడు కూడ చాలడు. హరసిద్ధునిలో భైరవుడు వచ్చినిలుచుంటే అతడు భర్త గనుక ఆమె యుద్ధం ఆపుతుంది. కనుక హరసిద్ధుడింక సిద్ధ భైరవుడు కావాలి. ఇక్కడి భైరవస్పర్శతో ఆ కార్యక్రమం మొదలైంది. భైరవుడు యుద్ధవీరుడు కూడా. పూర్వం నరకాసురుడు చేసిన సాధనలను గూర్చి మీరు వినే ఉంటారు.

🌹 అవగాహన మరియు పారవశ్యం ఒకటిగా మారుతుంది. / Awareness and Ecstasy Become One 🌹 ప్రసాద్‌ భరధ్వాజ

'మీరు ఆనందంతో, పారవశ్యంతో ప్రవహిస్తున్నప్పుడు, అది నిజంగా ఎక్కువగా ఎరుకగా ఉండ వలసిన, మరియు అవగాహన చేసుకోవలసిన క్షణం. కానీ ప్రజలు సరిగ్గా వ్యతిరేకం చేస్తారు. సంతోషంగా ఉన్నప్పుడు అవగాహన గురించి ఎవరూ పట్టించుకోరు. అదే వారు వేదనలో ఉన్నప్పుడు, వారు ఖచ్చితంగా తెలుసుకోవడం మరియు వేదన నుండి బయట పడవలసిన సమయం అని ఆలోచించడం ప్రారంభిస్తారు. కానీ ఆ బాధ నుంచి ఎవరూ నేరుగా బయటపడలేక పోయారు.

“మొదట, పారవశ్యత నుండి బయటపడి అవగాహన వైపు మీ దృష్టి పెట్టాలి. మీరు మీ ఆనందకరమైన క్షణాల గురించి లోతుగా తెలుసుకో గలిగితే, నిరాశ, పతనాలు మీ జీవితంలోకి రావు. అదే వేదన నుండి బయటపడటానికి తలుపు. కాబట్టి ఇది సరళమైన మార్గం: 'సంతోషంగా ఉన్నప్పడు, గమనింపుగా ఉండండి.' 'ఆనందంగా ఉన్నప్పుడు, అవగాహనతో ఉండండి.' 'ప్రేమిస్తున్నప్పుడు, ఎరుకతో ఉండండి.'

'అవగాహనను ఒక రకమైన భంగం' అని చెప్పి పక్కన పెట్టవద్దు; నేను గొప్ప పారవశ్యంలో ఉన్నాను.’ అనే ఎరుక కలవరంలా మారుతుంది అనిపిస్తుంది; కానీ అలా జరగదు. ఇది ప్రారంభంలో అలా కనిపించ వచ్చు, కానీ త్వరలో ఇది మీ పారవశ్యాన్ని ఉన్నత శిఖరాలకు తీసుకెళుతుందని మీరు చూస్తారు. అంతిమంగా అవగాహన మరియు పారవశ్యం ఒకటిగా మారతాయి. అప్పుడు పతనాలు, నిస్పృహ క్షణాలు, వేదనలు అన్నీ మాయమవుతాయి. 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

🌹 Awareness and Ecstasy Become One 🌹

“When you are flowing with joy, blissfulness, that is the moment to be aware, but people do exactly the opposite. When they are happy who cares about awareness? And when they are in anguish, then certainly they start thinking it is time to be aware and get out of anguish. But nobody has ever been able to get out from anguish directly.

“First, one has to get into awareness from ecstasy. If you can be aware of your joyful moments in the first place, the depression, the downs will not come. The door to awareness is in ecstacy. So this is the simplest way: “Be happy and be aware." " “Rejoice and be aware."* “Love and be aware."

“Don’t put awareness aside saying, ‘This is a kind of disturbance; I am in such a great ecstasy.’ Awareness becomes like a disturbance; it is not. It may appear like this in the beginning, but soon you will see it will take your ecstasy to higher peaks. Ultimately awareness and ecstasy become one. Then those downs, depressive moments, agonies disappear.” 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

Skills do not succeed because of pride. Incarnations like Lord Rama and Lord Krishna also submitted to sadgurus. Did service to them. Education is only for the humble. The wealth of humility is the greatest of all riches. As Srimata is the form of Smriti and Sruti, those who worship her with devotion can attain the essence of all knowledge. Devotees have attained knowledge through this method. Isn't Srimata the epitome of knowledge! By listening to and recollecting about her, living beings also develop knowledge. This is also a good practice. Sruti Smritis gradually expand the knowledge of living beings. The next name suggests this.

I was hesitating between two different quotes from the review, a phrase about the novel or something more precise about one of the characters? Which one would catch your attention?

Massive thanks to Eva for her kindness, reading and for creating these cute illustrations 😊

The mood board totally fits the atmosphere 💕

I warned you, Wesley surely is one of the best bookboyfriends ever!

BITTER PRINCE’S BLURB

Once upon a time, a lion saved a girl. His little cinnamon girl.

That lion grew up into a prince. Dark, bitter, and so beautiful that it hurt to look at him.

But underneath it all, the girl saw the man. I saw his hunger for love and affection, and I had plenty to give.

I fell in love, even though he told me not to. I gave him everything, because that was who I was.

I was determined to show him the light in this world, and his smiles were what I lived for. He was my art, my melody, my muse. We were beautiful together.

So I gave and gave, all to my bitter prince. Until I had nothing left to give.

Until he left me empty.

No one warned me love would push me into darkness so cold, it’d tear me apart.

To survive, I’d have to kill the cinnamon girl and become someone else.

Someone I didn’t recognize.

2 am pdt 16 November 2022

{{updated 5 am near bottom & 8:51 am @ bottom , & 10:47 am}}

minutes ago realized something from when in 7th grade, after thinking 🤔 & remembered the guy who wrote me the love letter 💌 sophomore year of high school 🏫, told me a guy touched my butt intentionally when I told him the time I played a basketball 🏀 game him 2-on-1 with my youngest sister after school 🏫. I think I also did that move of bouncing the ball between his legs 🦵. I guess bcz I was a girl he wasn’t expecting it? 😹

anyway, I haven’t read any part of the Bible at this point in time & I did not learn much about Jesus or any other part. I crashed one Sunday school session I think 🤔 when I was in elementary school 🏫 but I had poor focus 🧘🏻‍♀️/attention span so I don’t remember anything from it. My dad said he could not believe in Jesus Christ/Christian religion so we only went once. Mom was usually too busy to do much with us. I believe both of my parents were low income earners. Even though she had a bachelor’s degree 📜 majoring in accounting 🧾, I think the story was that the United States 🇺🇸 did not recognize? Her degree 📜? I m 🤔 not sure. Different countries different accounting rules? There’s also international accounting 🧾 rules? Supposedly 2 organizations fasb? & the international said in textbooks 📚 they working on/towards making the rules identical? 🤷🏻‍♀️ But I think 🤔 probably a lot of the basic stuff should probably be the same? She took bookkeeping 🧾 at home courses & did like an internship I guess, & to maintain the license she has to do more courses online every few years? She also took a tax course. She went back to school for a while when I was in high school but for some reason I don’t remember her telling me much like when she started. At dinner time, is I guess when most families talk? But my mom wanted to watch the news 📰 on 📺 tv. So I started sitting 🪑 at the desktop? 🖥 computer 👩🏻‍💻 (it was a big tower though that sat on the floor) while eating 🍽 dinner 🥘. All I remember was sitting on the floor working on an English assignment for reading 📖 the odyssey & mayb realized she wasn’t home 🏠 & I didn’t know where she was.

tangent ! Back to 7th grade, in p.e. Class we were assigned numbers to stand on in alphabetical order of last names. A boy/guy stood behind me. In our year books 📚 last & first name are what are listed (usually omitted middle name). He randomly started touching me with out consent during class. He once massaged 💆🏻‍♀️my shoulders and ran his fingers up ⬆️ & down ⬇️ & he danced behind me & he made comments like “she doesn’t shave 🪒 her legs” but he shaved 🪒 his legs 🦵😆🤭 . He kinda seemed to notice me outside of p.e. Class but I was so shy ☺️ & he was cute 🥰, that I ran away from him all 7th grade. (My hair I think was still very dark probably black, & straight @ this time & I think I grew it out/long ) He & his friends switched to a table I was sitting 🪑 at in the library 📚, but as he was about to sit down 🪑 I popped out of my 🪑 & ran out. When I popped up 🆙 I think there was already an established pattern of me running away from him so he lunged 🫁 forward across the table! By the end of 7th grade I had the courage to give him a note 📝 saying I want to be friends. & then it seemed to flip that summer & 8th grade year - I became the pursuer. 😕. His cousin Brandon transferred to our school 8th grade year. & almost the end of the year he told my friends & my friends told me he was going to ask me to be his girlfriend but he was waiting for summer bcz his dad said to wait. He asked a girl named Eva who lived in los banos (like baños =bathroom) & I think her family usually went to South Africa 🇿🇦 during the summer, & she did her final 8th grade project on modeling, to be his girlfriend instead of me. This guy, his middle name is David; which I found out during graduation 👩‍🎓 of middle school; & my middle name combined with first name seems to have parallels to bathsheba (Sheba-> shiva?) which I didn’t realize until this year. So it seemed like @_@ we were too coincidental = controlled by the demon lord to get involved with each other. & my name if play with transliteration can become chavah=eve. @_@ why I did not realize this part sooner after I realized parallel to bathsheba 🛁 🛀 🧼 & the daycare lady’s last name like a big boat 🚣‍♀️?, first name means pretty (Also yesterday realized Chris brown 🚣‍♀️ Christ be rowing, rhianna song 🎧 🎵 🎶 oh nana what’s my name? Was it??? Christ beating up nana.) This year found on internet number 7 in Bible is symbolic for perfection. In Bible it says Jesus was made perfect?? I’ve been using nana aliases for many years & only have been using it bcz of nana manga. I’m far from perfect 😑. Unfortunately. I would like to be perfect & to think 🤔 I am but probably know far too little? Sometimes if I get to thinking I’m right about something then I start getting a big head but I try to deflate it on my own if someone doesn’t beat me up/to it😖😭😵 (the demon lord/incubus/devil does it for any reason he wants - whatever suits his plans.) & people have been calling me banana 🍌 since I was very little girl 👧/kid.

also should write ✍️ about, I don’t think bathsheba would have got with king David if he were not king 🤴 👑. I think king David, even though, I don’t know 🤷🏻‍♀️ much about him if he was attractive & had a big cock 🐓 🐔 & if he was generous to his wives, but it seemed to me that he didn’t really love ❤️ his first wife & probably only married her if he would have inherited king Saul’s kingdom? But I don’t know 🤷🏻‍♀️ much about that. & so he went around finding other women to have “real fun” and other hint hint nudge nudge. So he was kinda a gold digger & whore/ slut/bimbo himself. 😖😭😑😡🤬😫 he probably abused his power. Abused it to scare (boo!! My boo 👻 ) women into having “affairs” with him. Did he come from a rich 🤑 family? He had older brothers 😎? Something about a harp? 🐑 sheep ?? If not he would know first hand then what it’s like 👍 to have very little power & then have a lot. Like he might know “pressure points”? Beware of who the historians are, biographies autobiography = part of the Bible. 347 am pdt 16 November 2022 Wednesday. Bware of wolf 🐺 in sheep’s 🐑 clothing. Incubus = wolf 🐺!! 😖😭😫😤🥵🤬 349 am pdt 16 November 2022 Wednesday. (Christina = 😭 cries rivers = rio ria Uriah urea? You reya? Urrine?

Devil/satan/Lucifer = bright star?? Bright = smart?? I’ve had learning problems all my life probably. But I keep at it. Stayed home a lot than go out with people ALL my life. There were times I went out, but it didn’t happen a lot. There are people who will play games to make you doubt yourself. be careful of faulty reasoning. They are tricky & sly. We are always told give thanks 🙏 2 god for our success & there are others who say you are responsible for your success. There’s a reason these exist side by side, bcz maybe 🤔 we are not all treated the same? Dr. Doolittle... who has to do a lot to be successful? David slingshot one stone? & it brought down a giant?? Or did his bring down the giant for him?? Did David really deserve to be king 👑? Did he earn it?

after he dated Eva, he dated a girl named Ashley, who went to my high school 🏫, & I saw him junior year at a dance 💃 with her & she was wearing a long red dress/gown 💃 & has blonde hair 👱‍♀️ hmm 🤔 coincidence? Even though he went to a different high school 🏫. & that year she was in my physics class & then was the first time I met her at my school 🏫.

the weird thing is I am younger than Adam Noah Levine 5+ years. In kindergarten I 👗 dressed up as a bride 👰‍♀️ 4 Halloween 👻 🎃 . My mom said she thinks I picked out my own costumes, bcz I would otherwise throw a tantrum. Demonic possession?? I think it was after the ‘89 earthquake we moved to & lived for about a year in king 🤴 city. For kindergarten I went to Saint Lucia. I did not look up 🆙 or ask who Saint Lucia was until this year. Lucia was murdered in court bcz she used up her dowry to help other people. Read it on Wikipedia. A man who was interested in marrying her, I think he was only interested bcz of her dowry. & I think I read that he is probably, & the court, is the reason why she died. 8:28 am 😖😫😭😖😭😫😖😭😫😤🥵🤬 which seems to tie back in to the incubus spiritual husband thing. 832 am pdt 16 November 2022 Wednesday. So the weird part is, I have a classmate photos (including teaching staff) on a sheet that was probably given to each classmate... I’m afraid to write ✍️ this part bcz no one will probably blieve me & the demon lord has ways to edit old pictures that were developed the old fashioned way through negatives 🎞. But I didn’t notice until recently... like within the last 2-3 years I cannot remember when Within the 2-3 years but I remember it was recently, .. maybe 🤔 within last 5 years??? It was recently... I noticed something weird... 8:42 am pdt 16 November 2022. I’m starting to feel pain in a bad spot in my body so I guess that is a warning ⛔️ ⚠️ From the demon lord- a threat to me. I had to delete what I was going to post. 846 am pdt 16 November 2022 Wednesday.

10:48 am pdt 16 November 2022 Wednesday

was trying to find something I read this year? Online about shifting shadows in the apocalypse.

I found this today:

https://biblehub.com/niv/james/1.htm I have memory issues & doubts. But a thing I remember from a philosophy class I took in college? My senior year of high school English teacher also tried to teach a little philosophy? I think 🤔 I remember a guy I was interested in named Evan was given a burger 🍔 king crown 👑 & dubbed? Philosopher 👑 king . .. cannot 😖😫😭 remember what exactly that was anymore that we were trying to learn. @ the time my teacher was fresh out of college? Her name was Ms. Angell.

Anyway, it was in school 🏫 allegory of the cave was introduced. I forgot which philosopher... Plato? I think the teacher said it was about figuring out what is truly reality? Devil is father of lies? A really expert liar 🤥? Was it des carte the name in the video I watched?

11:01 am pdt 16 November 2022 Wednesday

11:13 am pdt 16 November 2022 Wednesday:: the YouTube video wouldn’t paste 😕 Rene des carte I think therefore I am 11:16 am pdt

📖📚📙📓 :)

HERE WE GO AGAIN

Ok so we've established that Vlad tried to eat Pat. Once. The once was enough to give her debilitating PTSD and a lame hand, but it was only once. At least, in his mind. In his mind he cannot fathom why she wouldn't want to be around him. Look, he's scary and sometimes charming and he's been around a long time, but none of those things make him smart. And besides, he didn't kill her, so what's all her fuss about?

This happened in like, chapter 3. At the very least it happens early in Crimson. But this major event that sends Pat's life spiralling out of control? Only a moment to Vlad. After he's done with his murder frenzy he remembers he really likes talking to her. He genuinely likes her company. So he goes to find her again.

By now of course she's been working on healing. She has a support system in plac She's even managed to find a new topic for her final project to take her mind off her real-world issues, getting a story from the nice lady who's been housing her through all of college, Eva Blake. She has the protection of a very understanding officer of the law, Ash Sterling. And she's started a friendly relationship with Charles, the younger of the two Princes of Iron and Silver, who she tried to punch in a badly timed trauma-related incident.

So the plot of Crimson has four main threads: Vlad trying to have another conversation with Pat, and Pat trying to avoid Vlad to prevent further trauma; Ash Sterling trying to pin Vlad for one of his various crimes, without causing an international crisis and/or violating the Unseelie Prince's diplomatic immunities; Eva's traumatic backstory in the background, framed by Pat's narrative; and Pat's developing relationship with Prince Charles. And to top it all off, Vlad's brother Erik gets involved, a much more dangerous political adversary, pulling strings that none of the main characters can properly foresee until it's too late.

And that's a summarized plot of Crimson without too many spoilers! Thanks for the ask!

ayaneṣu ca sarveṣu yathā-bhāgam avasthitāḥ bhīṣmam evābhirakṣantu bhavantaḥ sarva eva hi

🌷 Translation : All of you must now give full support to Grandfather Bhīṣma, as you stand at your respective strategic points of entrance into the phalanx of the army.

🌻. Purport : Duryodhana, after praising the prowess of Bhīṣma, further considered that others might think that they had been considered less important, so in his usual diplomatic way, he tried to adjust the situation in the above words.

He emphasized that Bhīṣmadeva was undoubtedly the greatest hero, but he was an old man, so everyone must especially think of his protection from all sides. He might become engaged in the fight, and the enemy might take advantage of his full engagement on one side.

Therefore, it was important that other heroes not leave their strategic positions and allow the enemy to break the phalanx. Duryodhana clearly felt that the victory of the Kurus depended on the presence of Bhīṣmadeva.

He was confident of the full support of Bhīṣmadeva and Droṇācārya in the battle because he well knew that they did not even speak a word when Arjuna’s wife Draupadī, in her helpless condition, had appealed to them for justice while she was being forced to appear naked in the presence of all the great generals in the assembly.

Although he knew that the two generals had some sort of affection for the Pāṇḍavas, he hoped that these generals would now completely give it up, as they had done during the gambling performances. 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

🌷 Translation : O son of Pṛthā, in this world there are two kinds of created beings. One is called divine and the other demoniac. I have already explained to you at length the divine qualities. Now hear from Me of the demoniac.

🌹 Purport : Lord Kṛṣṇa, having assured Arjuna that he was born with the divine qualities, is now describing the demoniac way. The conditioned living entities are divided into two classes in this world. Those who are born with divine qualities follow a regulated life; that is to say they abide by the injunctions in scriptures and by the authorities. One should perform duties in the light of authoritative scripture.

This mentality is called divine. One who does not follow the regulative principles as they are laid down in the scriptures and who acts according to his whims is called demoniac or asuric. There is no other criterion but obedience to the regulative principles of scriptures. It is mentioned in Vedic literature that both the demigods and the demons are born of the Prajāpati; the only difference is that one class obeys the Vedic injunctions and the other does not.
