CIA: Trained to lie, ready to kill, out to survive

The CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) is a civilian [allegedly] foreign intelligence service that actually operates illegally within the country.

It is an arm of the federal government of the United States of America tasked by the White House with advancing national "security" through collecting and analyzing intelligence from around the world and conducting covert operations (black ops).

The agency, sometimes called The Company, is headquartered in the George Bush Center for Intelligence in Langley, Virginia, sometimes metonymously called "Langley."

CIA Director Bush heads legacy in White House

A major member of the United States Intelligence Community (IC), the CIA has reported to the director of national intelligence since 2004 and is focused on providing intelligence for the president (POTUS) and his/her Cabinet, though it also provides intelligence for a variety of other entities including the United States Armed Forces and foreign allies it favors, such as Israel.

The CIA is headed by a director and is divided into various "directorates," including a Directorate of Analysis and Directorate of Operations.

CIA black ops: covert operations

(Insider) How the CIA black ops actually work (covert operations)

King Bush? - No, Dalai Lama, president.

Unlike the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation), the CIA has no law enforcement function and is supposed to only focus on intelligence gathering overseas, outside of the country. But it admits to limited domestic intelligence collection [8]. No one defines "limited," leaving it as unlimited as the CIA chooses.

The CIA is responsible for coordinating ALL human intelligence (HUMINT) activities in the IC [excluding the more secretive branches, arms, agencies, and ragtag criminals enlisted to commit crimes in black budget programs].

I like your dad, King Georgie. - Thanks, Dolly.

The CIA claims it has been instrumental in establishing intelligence services in many countries, and it provides funds and support to many foreign organizations.

The CIA exerts foreign political "influence" through its paramilitary operations units, including its Special Activities Center.

The CIA has also provided funds and support to several foreign political groups and governments, such as Israel's, including planning, coordinating, training, and carrying out torture, and technical support.

The CIA has been involved in many "regime changes" (assassinating, deposing, and disappearing leaders) and carrying out planned assassinations of foreign officials, leaders, and conducting terrorist attacks against unarmed civilian noncombatants, as it deems fit. More

Jewish comedy: Larry Charles, Seinfeld

Notorious Anti-Dentite Jerry Seinfeld is now a big time Zionist*

Zionism is a criminal project and is not Judaism. Neturei Karta (NK USA) is the voice of masses of Orthodox Jews who follow TRADITIONAL Judaism in its opposition to the political (often secular) philosophy of "Zionism," the existence of the State of Israel, opposes the Zionist occupation of Palestine and condemns Israel's atrocities committed to and by many of its people. There are many Jews who oppose Zionism and Israel.

How Larry Charles went from selling jokes on the street to writing for Seinfeld

Larry David and Larry Charles

(Fresh Air, WHYY, June 17, 2025) In his new memoir, Comedy Samurai, Larry Charles reflects on his career in comedy — from writing for Seinfeld to directing Sacha Baron Cohen's films Borat and Brüno — and a recent near-death experience.

This is FRESH AIR. I'm Terry Gross. My guest, Larry Charles, has been an integral part of TV shows and films that both reflected and made an impact on American popular culture.

He was a writer on Seinfeld, showrunner on Mad About You, a writer and executive producer on HBO's Entourage and a director and executive producer on Curb Your Enthusiasm. He directed Sacha Baron Cohen's films Borat and Bruno. He also collaborated with Bob Dylan on the film Masked and Anonymous.

• 

  Expert interviewer Terry Gross (NPR)

  From Peabody, Golden Globe, and Emmy Award-winning writer and director Larry Charles comes a rollicking journey through modern American comedy. He shares behind-the-scenes stories from his life's work. To tell his life story is to tell the story of modern American comedy. Over the last 40 years, few comedians have been a part of so many iconic, beloved projects. He was one of the original writers and producers on Seinfeld, directed over 20 episodes each of Curb Your Enthusiasm...

Larry David developed "Cosmo Kramer"

Larry Charles has a new memoir called Comedy Samurai: Forty Years of Blood, Guts, and Laughter. When he says blood and guts, he means it. He and Sacha Baron Cohen took enormous risks with their films, in which Baron Cohen took his characters Borat and Bruno into the real world and shot scenes with people who thought Borat and Bruno were real people.

To expose antisemitism, racism, and homophobia, Baron Cohen's fictional characters pushed his targets to reveal their darker feelings and beliefs, and it sometimes ended in near violence, with Baron Cohen, Larry Charles and the crew fleeing.

Larry Charles also did a documentary series called Larry Charles' Dangerous World of Comedy, where he went to dangerous places run by authoritarian rulers or were controlled by militias to see what comedy was like there. Larry Charles, welcome back to FRESH AIR.

Julia Louis Dreyfus as "Elaine"

LARRY CHARLES: Thank you. It's great to be here again. Thank you so much.

HOST TERRY GROSS: So the book starts with you having a heart attack and thinking...

CHARLES: *Laughter*

GROSS: This might be the end. Did facing the prospect of death make you rethink parts of your life and lead you to think you should rewrite parts of the book?

Woody Allen as Death

CHARLES: Well, I think it gave me a little more perspective on my own mortality. I have been obsessed with death since I'm a kid. But the reality of death and the obsession with death are two very different things.

And so I think I wanted to go back and be a little more honest and take a little bit more responsibility for my behavior. And I did add that layer to the book after all this happened.

GROSS: Yeah, because there's part of the book where you write you realized you were the agent of your own misfortune.

CHARLES: Very much so, yes.

GROSS: And that happened after...

CHARLES: And I had some bad agents, believe me. But I was...

Day of Dead: Buddhist hungry ghost stories

How to do the Day of the Dead (Dia de los Muertos): "Sugar Skull/La Catrina Makeup Tutorial"

Ancient Buddhist ghost stories from the Petavatthu (Tales of Hungry Ghosts)

(FOOLESJOURNEY) This collection of ancient South Asian ghost (peta, preta) stories combines several passages from an early Buddhist text called the Peta-vatthu – meaning “Ghost Stories," or more specifically, "Tales of Hungry Ghosts." It was likely written after 300 BCE, and is deeply rooted in ancient (especially pre-Buddhist, Vedic, Hindu) concepts of disembodied souls (subtle body beings) trapped between hellish and human planes, in the realm of hungry ghosts, doomed to experience torture and consequences of greedy, hateful, and deluded behavior in life, creating what are more simply referred to as “hungry ghosts.”

Every 'Seinfeld' was based on a true story

One of the most daring and creative episodes was their trip to India for a wedding, all told backwards.

The show was so about US culture, it featured Nazis sometimes - not Yev "the Soup Nazi" Kassem, a Jewish connoisseur, but the one with George, in a case of mistaken identity, as racist writer O'Brien, and he falls for the devoted blond Nazi bodyguard protecting him: The Limo (lol).

We we're gonna call it Alexander

When it comes to successful American sitcoms (like I Love Lucy, The Honeymooners, Dick Van Dyke Show, Mary Tyler Moore, etc.), Seinfeld often takes pride of being at the top of the list.

With its unique cast and striking [very Jewish] sense of humor, fans quickly fell in love with a fictionalized version of Jerry Seinfeld and his oddball group of New Yorker friends.

Not only did this series receive a ton of acclaim from critics, but it also worked its way into the foundation of modern pop culture, with many viewers still using these catchphrases today.

What's Seinfeld co-creator Larry David think?

Residuals are great, gave us Veep

One of the things that helped to make this sitcom a hit was the fact that many of the episodes were inspired by true events.

Since writers Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David (Curb Your Enthusiasm) were already household names at this point, they were able to present their hilarious anecdotes in a completely new format.

• [It is, after all, "the show about nothing" but petty day-to-day All-American nonsense and our obsession with romantic relationships of all kinds].
• Complete list of Seinfeld episodes
• 17 tell-all stories from behind the camera of favorite sitcoms
• 50 mistakes we missed in the best TV shows ever made
• The 5 worst episodes of 'Seinfeld' ranked (The Finale, yikes)

Thus, these true-to-life episodes seem to be the sitcom's best selling point for a lot of long-time fans. 

    

If I'm a loser, then why am I rich?

Seinfeld worked to have a lot of subplots in a single episode, ensuring that the jokes could keep on flying out of every angle.

The lasting impact: Festivus

In one episode, Jerry accidentally insults his cousin, Manya, by stating that he hates anyone who had a pony growing up.

Of course, Manya had a pony growing up in Poland and quickly took Jerry's crass comments to heart.

Alongside all of this mini-drama, Kramer sets up a bet that would later lead to his encompassing gambling addiction. This episode was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Writing in a Comedy Series.

Voices of Insight Meditation (anthology)

Begin again, begin again, and if necessary...

The Buddha made a general distinction between two types of cultivation or "meditation," one emphasizing calm and the other wisdom, shamatha and vipassana. This tradition of calm-and-insight is inseparable, one interdepending on the other, acting as the foundation for the other. The Theravada tradition used to encourage (foolishly in our opinion) dry insight, that is, this kind of meditation without the help of the other. Begin with calm and use it as a support for insight practices, which mainly derive from the two Satipatthana Suttas or the "Fourfold Setting Up of Mindfulness Discourses."

• READ A SAMPLE

Sharon Salzberg edited an anthology called Voices of Insight about vipassana meditation in 1/9/99 with Mirabai Bush. It has 4.7 out of 5 stars 21 ratings.

Voices of Insight

In this anthology, leading Western teachers of Buddhism share their personal experiences on the path of insight meditation called vipassana; their understanding of the basic teachings of the Buddha; the lessons they've learned in their training with their own teachers; and some good advice on following the Buddha-Dharma in everyday situations of work, family, and service.

The goddess' vimana (Sirima devi's spaceship)

John D. Ireland (trans.), Sirima: "Sirima's Vimana" (Vv 1.16 PTS: Vv 136-148) edited and further explained by Dhr. Seven, Amber Larson, Pat Macpherson (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

The devas are beautiful humanoids.

Ven. Vangisa: Those yoked and finely caparisoned horses of yours, strong and swift, are heading downward through the sky. And these 500 chariots [vimanas = spacecraft, aircraft, limitless-vehicles, flying ships], magically created, are following, their horses [horsepower] urged on by charioteers.

You stand in this excellent chariot [flying craft], adorned, radiant, and shining, like a blazing star. I ask you of lovely slender form and exquisite beauty, from which company of devas (lit. "shining ones") have you come to visit the Peerless One (the Buddha)?

• See also Vangīsa Sutta for a story of this thera

I do as I please, assuming whatever form suits me.

Sirima [12]: From those who have reached the heights of sensual pleasure said to be unsurpassed, the devas who delight in magical creation and transformation. A nymph from that company able to assume any desired appearance [a shapeshifter able to wield the power of transformation] has come here to honor the Peerless One.

Vangisa Thera spoke up.

Vangisa: What meritorious karma (good conduct) did you practice (perform) here in former times? How is it that you live in immeasurable glory, having gained such sensuous pleasures? Due to what have you acquired the unrivalled power to travel through the sky? Why does your beauty radiate in the ten directions?

You are surrounded and honored by the devas. From where did you pass away before you came to a heavenly rebirth, goddess? Or of what teaching (dharma, doctrine-and-discipline) were you able to follow the word of instruction? Tell me if you were a disciple of the Awakened One (the Buddha).

Sirima: In a fine and well-built city situated between hills, an attendant of a noble king endowed with good fortune, I was highly accomplished in dancing and singing. As Sirima I was known in Rajagaha [modern Rajgir, India, where the Buddha dwelled on Vulture's Peak].

But then the Awakened One, the leader among seers, the guide, taught me

1. of the origination of suffering
2. and impermanence [how disappointment comes to be],
3. of the unconditioned (asankhata), of the cessation of all suffering (nirvana) that is timeless (ānantariya); and
4. of this path (magga), not crooked, straight, auspicious.

The war in heaven: vimana against vimana

When I had learned of the deathless state (amata = nirvana), the unconditioned, through the instruction of the Tathagata, the Peerless One, I was highly and well restrained in the precepts and established in the Dhamma taught by the most excellent of humans, the Awakened One.

When I knew the undefiled place, the unconditioned, taught by the Tathagata, the Peerless One, I then and there experienced the calm concentration (of the noble path). That supreme certainty of release was mine.

When I gained the distinctive undying, assured, eminent in penetrative insight, not doubting, I was revered by many people and experienced much pleasure and enjoyment.

Thus I am a goddess (devi), knowing the undying, a disciple of the Tathagata, the Peerless One, a knower of Dhamma established in the first fruit, a stream-winner. Henceforth, there is no more bad rebirth for me.

I came to revere the Peerless One and the virtuous monastics [monks, nuns, novices] who delight in what is skillful, to honor the auspicious assembly of wandering ascetics and those worthy of respect [the ariya, the noble ones], the Fortunate One, the Dhamma-king.

I am joyful and gladdened on seeing the sage, the Tathagata, the outstanding trainer of humans capable of being trained, who has uprooted craving, who delights in what is skillful, the guide. I honor the supremely merciful Compassionate One.

Back story: Who is the devi (goddess) Sirima?

G. P. Malalasekera, Dictionary of Pali Proper Names (palikanon.com) edited by Wisdom Quarterly

Deva emerges from gold vimana chariot-mansion

Ven. Buddhaghosa says (SNA.i.244f, 253f) that Sirimā was Sālavati's daughter, who succeeded to her mother's position as courtesan. After passing away from here, Sirimā was reborn in a high celestial plane of existence known as the Yāma World as the wife of Suyāma. When the Buddha was speaking to the monastics at her cremation, she visited the spot with 500 chariots (vimanas).

Janapada-kalyānī Nandā [the most beautiful Scythian "belle of the land," who was the fiancé of the Buddha's half-brother, Nanda, before the Buddha ordained him after showing him his future due to his mixed karma in a famous sutra that reads like a kind of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, the story of Ebenezer Scrooge, who turns his life around after seeing what is to come], who at that time had become a Buddhist nun, was present.

When the Buddha taught the Kāyavicchandanika Sutta, she became an arahant (fully enlightened), while Sirimā became an anāgāmī (non-returner).

The Vimānavatthu ("Vimana Stories," pp.78f., 86) gives the same story, adding that Vangīsa was also present at the teaching of the sutra and, having obtained the Buddha's permission, questioned the shapeshifting devi Sirimā and made her reveal her former identity.

Here, however, Sirimā is said to have been reborn in the Nimmānarati World, and no mention is made of her becoming an anāgāmī (but rather a sotapanna or "stream-winner"), whereas the lustful Buddhist monk is said to have become an arahant.

Sirimā is mentioned in a list of eminent upāsikās (A.iv.347; AA.ii.791). Eighty-four thousand persons realized the noble truth after listening to the Buddha's teaching at the cremation of Sirimā (Mil.350) [most of whom must have been devas]/

The Sirimā-vimānavatthu is the story of Sirimā's passing away and subsequent events (Vv.i.16; VvA.67ff.) More

Native American poetry with Justine Chan

Dhr. Seven, Ananda (Dharma Buddhist Meditation), Xochitl (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

The Firehouse (@thefirehousejt)

In the spring as Beth Upton's Joshua Tree meditation retreat was winding down at Dhamma Dena, we realized that civilization was not that far away. On one side there are the Joshua Tree Festival Grounds by the dry lake (home of BhaktiFest). On the other is an odd building with big doors. It's an oasis of culture in the high desert called The Firehouse, a performance space where a firehouse used to be. Justine Chan was reading.

Should You Lose All Reason(s) by poet and Zion National Park Ranger Justine Chan (justinechan.com) is at times scorching, at times brimming with awe and desire. Her topic? Coyote-centric Southern Paiute tribe folktales.

• Indigenous peoples of the Great Basin

This debut book of poems resonates with a brilliance, retelling ancient Native narratives, handed down for generations as American Indians explained the natural world to themselves.

Everyone was striving for jhana with Upton.

Seattle resident Justine Chan worked as a park ranger at Zion National Park, where she was very moved by the native flora, fauna, and culture. As the only Asian American ranger at Zion, she chose to retell a Southern Paiute Native American folktale for her weekly evening program on coyotes.

The more that long, hot summer unfolded, the more time she spent alone in the desert, the more she retold the story, the more the story became her life.

In that mental space, she began to write. Should You Lose All Reason(s) is unafraid of looking hard -- back, down, towards, around, forward, at the stories we tell, at herself, at the desert, at the sun, at everything.

Forty days in, we breathed, and the pic snapped.

In conversation with that ancient Southern Paiute folktale handed down through the generations, she weaves together a triptych of poems, works both always on the move and stuck, exile in the wilderness.

Drawing from her experiences serving in AmeriCorps, working many summers as a park ranger, and traveling across the United States, she explores race, loneliness, stories, hauntings, family, landscapes and cityscapes, climate change, survival, music, resilience, the West, and America itself. More

Park ranger poet Justine Chan

ABOUT: Justine Chan is a writer, poet, and singer-songwriter from Chicago, who currently lives in Seattle. Should You Lose All Reason(s) (Chin Music Press, 2023) is her initial release. Her work has appeared in Baltimore Review, Beecher’s, Booth, Poetry on Buses, and Midwestern Gothic, among others. She holds an MFA in creative writing from the University of Washington and has worked many seasons as a park ranger with the National Park Service.
