laba-laba tenda bikin sarang di rumpun pandan

lagi di jogja kemarin bareng andhita duduk di dekat zigzag. dua kupu nina. tiap kali didekati andhita kupunya lari

andhita tanya: kenapa nina ga suka sama aku

Sifat 20 tidak harus dihafalkan dari luar kepala, melainkan dimasukkan kedalam hati. Hanya dengan perasaan dekat kepada Tuhan, manusia dapat menginsafi tugasnya di dunia yang fana ini...

God permeates the whole wide world
Yet His truth is revealed to none..

hampir jam enam. langit masih terang

akasia yang minggu kemarin masih kuning sudah gugur bunga-bunganya

Ajaan Fuang, my teacher, once discovered that a snake had moved into his room. Every time he entered the room, he saw it slip into a narrow space behind a storage cabinet. And even though he tried leaving the door to the room open during the daytime, the snake wasn't willing to leave. So for three days they lived together. He was very careful not to startle the snake or make it feel threatened by his presence. But finally on the evening of the third day, as he was sitting in meditation, he addressed the snake quietly in his mind. He said, "Look, it's not that I don't like you. I don't have any bad feelings for you. But our minds work in different ways. It'd be very easy for there to be a misunderstanding between us. Now, there are lots of places out in the woods where you can live without the uneasiness of living with me." And as he sat there spreading thoughts of metta to the snake, the snake left.
