  • You have to teach kids EVERYTHING its exhausting. When I first asked my daughter to put a plate in the kitchen the put it on the floor, just over the threshold of the door. She was about 18mo, and it was not malicious, just following my exact instructions.

    Either way I fully support your parenting practice and I do the same <3


  • I would argue that Buddhism is as distinct from Hinduism as an agnostic is from the abrahamic faiths.

    This is a great take. Buddhism is more a philosophy of a worldview than a religious worldview.

    Buddhism taking on concepts of other religions, even deities, is upaya (skilful means). Its a way draw as many people as possible out of suffering as possible. I seem to remember that’s the whole idea of mahayana Buddhism: getting as many people as possible at least partway towards enlightenment is better than only a few all the way.
