Status Updates From The Practice of Not Thinkin...

"Word je emotioneel wanneer iemand je bekritiseert? Geen probleem - het zijn slechts geluidsgolven die je gehoor raken."

for a buddhist monk he seems to know a lot about social media "you know if people read your posts, and there's an unspoken understanding that you'll read your friend's ones and leave comments but even though there is pressure to reciprocate sometimes they're not interesting and you have to lie" (i'm paraphrasing) haha i'm so glad i'm not a part of that it sounds stressful poor guy that's not very zen

being raised in a japanese new religion affects my perception of this book... it's vaguely similar in the instructions are very 'do this! don't do that!' and another reviewer said they felt 'hectored' by this book and like girl same.

this book is short so i'll finish it and see if anything resonates. i did agree with the overuse of gratitude section. the contents page was the best bit so far though
