Weed psychosis: real Reefer Madness now


Weed Psychosis is exploding in America (but nobody warned us)
In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts
(African Diaspora News Channel) Feb. 10, 2026: Rosemarie Havsom reports: Marijuana (from the Chinese mahua,* not Spanish "Mary Jane," weed, pot, the Devil's cabbage, cannabis, THC/CBD) is being sold as “safe,” “natural,” and “harmless” — but emergency rooms across America are seeing a disturbing surge in weed-induced psychosis, paranoia, hallucinations, schizophrenia and violent breaks from reality. This isn’t about old-school [2% THC] weed. Today’s high-THC products are 10–30x stronger than what past generations used — and the brain is paying the price.

  • Buddhist clingy hungry ghosts
    *According to our botany and plant medicine teacher, USC's Dr. Adams, who is fluent in Chinese and whose wife is Chinese, our word "ma-rijuana" (potent strain of hemp) comes from the Chinese word ma, including mahua (麻花), mafen (麻蕡), and mabo (麻勃), referring to specific parts of the male and female flowers of a cannabis plant with differing cannabinoid ratios.

Naked: How to get NUDE with us (1/18)



WHAT HAPPENED?
The "all" that is burning was like a dream.
We gathered, cleaned, offered dana and took the Five Precepts with the abbot, ate lunch, meditated, then culminated the day with a chanting of the Patthana ("Conditional Relations"), and a Q&A period with the Sayadaw explaining that all things (composites) are "empty," which is to say utterly impersonal. This, however, is only true for one who knows and sees. One can directly see all manner of physical and psychological (material and mental phenomena) particles, kalapas and cittas and see that they are not "self" just as the historical Buddha saw. But why would anyone want to see such a thing?

This is "awakening" from the illusion of the suffering we identify as we remain tenaciously attached to the Five Aggregates clung to as self. What, then, if we were to let go? Of course, we do not have the power to let go. Form will not let go of form, feelings will not give up feeling, perceptions will not stop perceiving, mental formations will not give up fabricating our reality, and consciousness will not stop processing stimuli and data from the outside world.


So we can get or stay dressed?
And so long as the illusion lasts that these five heaps take all of this to be the work of a soul or self (attaatmanjiva), the possessions of a self (I, me, and mine), just so long will suffering continue and get worse. To be done with it, to lay the burden down, we must bring about calm and focus -- sustained attention to see things as they really are. When that is seen, letting go happens by itself. A woman clutches a rope. How long will it take her to let go in horror and disgust when she realizes it is a venomous snake?

Just so, the aggregates cling to the aggregates (and all that they feel belong to this imaginary "self" or "soul" or "ego" they are constantly constructing). How long will it take to let go when they realize that all of this has been impersonal, impossible to satisfy (because things can never offer fulfillment), and radically impermanent (arising, turning, and hurtling toward destruction)? In an instant of seeing, one clings no more. Therefore, to get there, let us let the mind/heart settle into stillness, develop clear-seeing (vipassana), and awaken to direct insight of the Truth. The Truth will set us free.

Awakened people born into toxic families


Why are so many spiritually sensitive people born into toxic or dysfunctional families?

In this profound talk by Alan Watts, we explore why this painful paradox is not a cosmic mistake. It is a hidden gift.

Learn why our most difficult wounds are not a problem to be solved, but the very soil our deepest spiritual strength grows from.

This video explores the idea that "real awakening comes through fire," not comfort. We reframe the toxic family as the "grain of sand" that forces the oyster to create a pearl to coat it.

Discover how this "friction" is the key to breaking generational cycles, forcing us to question what love really is and discover our "true self" when the programming we inherited is broken.

This is a complete guide to understanding the past, healing ancestral wounds, and finally realizing that our family was not our enemy, but our most difficult teacher.

Learn how to transform the pain inherited into the wisdom, raised consciousness, and freedom that will define our lives.
If this perspective shifts the world, please give the video a thumbs up and subscribe for more spiritual content to help heal and live a more conscious life.

Israel's Bibi Netanyahu penis surgery


Ashkenazi troops for Bibi: Support our warlord
Sympathy for the Devil, they say, is not a good thing. But, c'mon, it's Prime Minister Netanyahu's penile prostate tumor, and his junk is being operated on. Ouch. Even the Devil has got to be hating it. A UTI (urinary tract infection) seems to be coursing through the dictator's [Balzac] and the defiant man is in great pain right where it counts, right when it counts. The disease state and surgery have, however, helped him avoid prosecution for corruption by making him unavailable to provide deceptive testimony and/or evidence.


Benjamin Netanyahu to undergo prostate removal surgery after UTI
(New York Post) Dec. 29, 2024: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was set to undergo prostate removal surgery on Sunday — just a week after being diagnosed with a urinary tract infection. Netanyahu, 75, was going under the knife at the Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital in Jerusalem, with the operation taking place as the PM manages multiple wars with Palestine, Lebanon, Hezbollah, Syria, and Iran’s terror proxies. He is also facing his own corruption trial. Netanyahu’s surgery was expected to take two hours as doctors tackle “a benign enlargement [aka tumor] of his prostate,” the prime minister’s office said in a very carefully crafted statement.

Prostate makes semen.
(CNN-News18) Streamed Sunday morning, Dec. 29, 2024. Benny Netanyahu, the entrenched and CIA-backed prime minister of Israel, will have his prostate -- which is accessed through the anus -- removed during surgery on Sunday while under complete anesthesia, which is a life-threatening condition.

Will he still be a "man" without it? Probably, but he's sure to be more sympathetic to trans and LGBTQIA+ individuals than he already is, forcibly inducting and welcoming them into his war machine. Netanyahu's office reported that during the prime minister's examination at the Hadassah Hospital on Wednesday, an infection in the urinary tract caused by a benign enlargement of the prostate was found.
Doctors decided to proceed with the operation even though "he's received antibiotic treatment that eradicated the infection since then, for a few days." With so many people sending him animosity, hatred, and evil wishes around the world, it is not clear if he can avoid serious post-surgical complications.


But his Shin Bet, Mossad, IDF, CIA apparatus, and PR firm are sure to keep any of that from the public, presenting him as a competent leader in times of endless war, genocide, and Middle East conquest. Will his wife leave him like Assad's wife did after he was deposed and depressed, penniless and stuck in Moscow, Russia? There is much more money in staying, so the public face of their marriage should be fine.

If only the Buddha taught about money

The Buddha did teach about money, how to manage and grow it, in the Sigalovada Sutta below.
Temu.com has this cute wall decoration for my home decor (Emotional Pain Chart)
.
How much haul of merchandise piles up.
It all started on Brown Friday, calling the plumber the day after Thanksgiving because, well, Americans consume a lot.

That was the first bill. Then began Black Friday wargames at the mall. Who knows what moves me. It's not emotions.

Today is Cyber Monday, so it's time to order what I really wanted but didn't find elbowing people in person. I can track it down and order online. Delivery guys in shorts need the work. It's alright.

Do marketers use our emotions to sell us on things, claiming we sell ourselves with their help?

Tomorrow is Giving Tuesday, when I allay my guilt at overspending and running up credit card charges (personal debt) I can't afford by spending more on giving money away. I call it philanthropy, charity...snacking. Dieting makes me crazy. I gave at the office, my home office, when I was trying to order shoes.


If only the Buddha taught about money

How our gold is chipped away
In the most important sutra for lay Buddhists, the Sigalovada Sutta (DN 31) or compiled "Advice for Householders Discourse," he does just that. He is giving advice to young Sigala on the best way to live.

The Buddha advises how to use money to become safe and rich. In a simple formula, one's money should be divided in four and spent to make more money, ensuring the future: Gather riches like bees who work pick up pollen. Riches grow like a termite hill suddenly piling up. Gathering wealth in this way, a householder has enough for family and holds on to friends. That wealth is divided into four equal parts:
  1. The first portion is to enjoy here and now.
  2. The second is used to pay off debts.
  3. The third is used to purchase inventory.
  4. The fourth is set aside as savings for times of trouble.
  • Did the Buddha really care about money? As Prince Siddhartha, he was born rich and influential because his homeland, Kapilavastu (at the foothills of the Himalayas in a part of the range known as the Hindu Kush, Afghanistan not Nepal), was on the Silk Route. Many rich and powerful kings befriended him. His greatest lay-devotee was known as the millionaire (Anathapindika, Sudatta the Banker, his foremost male patron and supporter), who was worth so much money that he was a kind of Mansa Musa. The Buddha also had the great Ven. Sivali, foremost in receiving alms due to his previous store of skillful karma of giving dana. So money (gold, silver, cattle, fields, servants, property) was no object, and the Buddha had no love or need of it, having renounced all such worldly things, but his supporters loved it. So he taught them about making merit (punya) so they would always have all they needed.
Avoid wasting money
Well, I'm not really wasting money. I'm actually saving more the more I buy. The ad says so.
.
[A penny earned is a penny saved seems to mean that we make as much money by not spending money as by earning it. Save up. How?] One is advised to avoid the Six Drains on Wealth.

“What six drains on wealth does one avoid? (“Drains on wealth” is apāyamukha, literally “openings for departure.”) This is emphasized since a good person wants as an heir to be a proper steward and not squander away the family fortune.

According to the Buddha, habitually engaging in the following things is a drain on wealth:
  1. consuming intoxicants like alcohol (beer, wine, liquor);
  2. roaming the streets at night;
  3. frequenting parties and festivals;
  4. gambling;
  5. bad friends (companions);
  6. laziness.
Alcohol?

The most common phrase in Pali for alcoholic beverages lists three items. Surā is brewed from grains and yeast (Bu Pc 51:2.1.2), meraya is made from sugars, fruits, or flowers (Bu Pc 51:2.1.4), and madya is a catchall term. Together they correspond with a modern classification of the potent drinks “beer, wine, and liquor.” See also Manu 11.94, Arthaśāstra 2.25, Suśrutasaṁhitā 1.45, Amarakośodghāṭana 3.6.

There are six drawbacks of drinking alcohol. Habitually tossing back beer, sipping wine, or guzzling liquors that cause intoxication causes problems like: (1) loss of wealth, (2) quarrels, (3) illness, (4) disrepute, (5) indecent exposure, (6) and weakened wisdom (liquid ignorance). More

Is my 'relationship' w/ Jesus 'n God toxic?


When a 'relationship with God' turns unhealthy
(Kristi Burke) Oct. 27, 2024: ✪ Former Christian Kristi reacts to the claim that "Christian is not a religion but a relationship [with Father God, Buddy Jesus, Mother Mary, Angel Cousins or whatever]."

Sick, sad televangelists push people to atheism.
As she explains her position: "Please keep in mind that what I share in these videos is my subjective opinion, and my goal is to deconstruct fundamentalist/evangelical/conservative Christian ideologies from an ex-Christian perspective for those questioning or deconstructing their former beliefs.
