The coolest part about having a garden is to be able to walk out in the morning and pick a small handful of raspberries for my yoghurt.

Pretty good life.

Also if I dissappear I have developed a medical condition and I might drop dead at any point between now and when they can book in medical treatment which is not cool but I will enjoy what life gives me.

If I do survive I am making plans to change the world, I am getting very disappointed with the status quo.

Cheers

Prince Eugene and his Palaces - Pt 2/2 - "Upper Belvedere"

By the mid 1720's, the legendary prince had moved into the newly completed "Upper Belvedere", palace,, higher up on the hill looking down at the first Palace he'd built a decade earlier, the "Lower Belvedere" (so called once there was an upper). While the reflecting pond regretfully refused to reflect for me - be it time of day/angle of sun, clouds, or water level (given European drought) elsewhere) - whatever. The reflection gods seem to have remained back at Freud's house.

So Prince Eugene got to enjoy some 13 years here with his garden view, before passing on, and - heirless - passing on his palaces back to his beloved Austria, where he devoted himself after initially being raised as nobility in France's court of King Louis XiV.

Not by design, but I paired a post yesterday (Lower Belvedere) with "Lucky Man", a little bit relevant (nobleman off fighting for country) but without a sudden tragic ending. In real life the Prince was fragile in his final years, but died at home in his sleep. And this palace is stunningly beautiful - and I should add that the two palaces now comprise museums with some of the world's finest art, including the biggest/best collection of Klimt. Nothing broke-down about this palace, though it lost its creator, reborn as an art treasure.

Brokedown Palace

Here's a song totally un-related (at least obviously) to this gorgeous palace, which has been but is not now broke down. Well... life,
simply a twist of #fate, or i-Ching.... thinking of "Palace" songs this sprang to mind. A powerful song about passings, actually, a beautiful song with which the Grateful Dead sometimes ended sets , and which many have chosen as a funeral tribute since.
(Check out the tear-jerker comments on YT if you go there; it is truly a great song, and for some very powerful, hopefully better now.

There are many castle songs which are great ("Castles Made of Sand" comes to mind, guess JH had a thins: "Spanish Castle Magic")
Anyway, I really spent years without hearing/thinking (Grateful) Dead, and now they're popping up. Fate. #Castles

Lower Belvedere

So yeah, long live the Prince (in legacy), long live the King (of England now)... plus the Kings/Queens of Music.

And 'they don't make Palaces like they used to!' ;)

Inner Sound Meditation is A Required Course, Not An Elective One, in Sant Mat - Spiritual Awakening Radio Podcast

Forget Not the Way of the Sound Current

Initiation In Earlier Times... and Now

Swami Ji Maharaj Opened the Floodgates of Initiation

Thanks to the innovations of Guru Arjan Dev, Sant Dariya Sahib of Bihar, Sant Tulsi Sahib of Hathras, and Soamiji Maharaj of Agra, the Path of Initiation into Inner Light and Sound Meditation (Surat Shabd Yoga) has gradually become progressively more and more available to an ever-growing percentage of humanity. "Satsang shall spread far and wide in future." (Last Words of Soamiji Maharaj) "After Swami Ji Maharaj, the floodgates of initiation opened up and many people would be able to get the initiation." (Baba Ram Singh) And the Sant Mat spiritual classic and scripture known as the Anurag Sagar (Kabir's Ocean of Love) predicts that as this Kali Yuga age continues to unfold, the Path of the Masters will be far more well-known and followed than it is at present. But at every step and in each generation of time, Masters have had to intervene and reboot the Path whenever it begins to go off course, "falls into the mouth of Kal", the negative power, the gnostic demiurge or false god, in other words, eaten by illusion, eaten by time. Soamiji Maharaj of Agra once said of spiritual paths: "Without Bhakti [love], they are all hollow and sham, outer husks without a kernel." It is the inner "kernel" or "seed" of Life we’re really after, not developing attachments to institutions or organizations, or going through the motions of holidays, traditions, and rituals, well within the confines of the grinding wheel of fate and transmigration.

One issue with the old Sant Panths of past centuries has been, they divided initiation (deeskha) into two parts: the first initiation into Simran of Sacred Names and Light, the second into the Sound Current. All well and good if practiced, but... if most never get to apply for the Sound initiation, that's a problem. That's a spiritual crisis, if almost nobody receives the initiation into the Sound Current. Eventually, over the course of time, the Way of the Sound Current becomes only the experience of a handful of devotees. In some paths, knowledge of the Sound Current, the Word, the Logos, has been lost altogether. The Masters have always taught that the Path of the Sound Current, the Audible Life Stream, the Shabda, the Naam, is intended for all the true disciples, is a required practice for all, and not an elective practice only for some small minority. Maharshi Mehi said: "Surat Shabda Yoga is the practice of transcending the mind and entering the level beyond the mind, that is, the level of Oneness. The vehicle for this inward journey is Sound. The way to employ Sound and to understand its use is the practical application of Surat Shabda Yoga. This is also known as Nadanusandhana. Surat Shabda Yoga as a means to attain the Unbounded State is an integral and indispensable aspect of the Sant Mat tradition. Any tradition devoid of this essential aspect is not true Sant Mat." (Philosophy of Liberation) So Satgurus such as Sant Tulsi Sahib, Soamiji Maharaj, and Sant Darya Sahib of Bihar would incarnate and reboot the spiritual Path here in this material realm (Pinda Desh), the Ocean of Samsara (World of Changes), so that souls would continue to make spiritual progress following a Living Path of Moksha (liberation, salvation) free of the outer husks of rites, rituals, and earthbound traditions dominated by maya (illusion). "As long as the discipline of the Sound Current is preserved unadulterated, the line of succession will truly continue. But when it is mixed with outer rituals and display of external garbs, My Sound Current will part company. My Divine essence will depart, and the souls will go into the mouth of Kal. I shall then come to this world, and shall proclaim the teaching of the Sound Current again. Proclaiming the teaching, I shall found the line of succession. And emancipating the souls, I shall take them to my Abode. For aeons I have been coming, and imparting the teaching of the true Sound Current." (Sant Dariya Sahib, sounding here more like the cosmic figure of Kabir, Adi Guru of Sant Mat)

"I will make the souls firm in the Shabda of the Gracious Forgiver, Sat Purush. Such souls will be Sahaj [on a natural Path]: pure and content. They will do the devotion of the soul, and they will be the abode of pure qualities. By doing the Simran of Sat Purush they will sing the praise of the Immovable Naam. I will send the souls to Sat Lok... Spreading the Nectar of Naam I will awaken the souls. O Dharam Rai [negative power], listen carefully. I will humble your arrogance. By doing the practice of devotion, they will get the passport and I will connect them with the Naam of Sat Purush. The Negative Power can't come near such a soul, and he will bow down to them when he sees their union with Sat Purush." (Anurag Sagar, Kabir's Ocean of Love)

In Divine Light and Sound, Sat Naam Saheb,
James Bean

questo è il file più "grosso" che abbiamo creato... sono circa 2029 frasi da tradurre e correggere XD

servono per gli "incontri casuali". alcune saranno divertenti, altre daranno spunti per combattimenti o per brevi (o lunghe) avventure. Tutto per cercare di far giocare gli utenti senza che si aspettino che sia qualcun'altro a creare una storia per loro 😀

VOI (personaggi) sarete coloro che vivranno il mondo, e sta a voi creare le vostre avventure (o complicare quelle degli altri), in pieno stile "open world"

Pepper&Carrot Fate Accelerated request for help

I'm looking for folks who have expert Fate Accelerated eyes (and a
passing familiarity with the comic Pepper&Carrot at
https://peppercarrot.com/) to take a look at
an incredibly rough-draft of an RPG that I've been building for
Pepper&Carrot using Fate Accelerated. You can view the game
rules and look at
the source and issue tracker on
Framagit.

What I am looking for: 1) Does the magic system fit the world described?
Magic in Hereva is plentiful, and is essentially our Physics. It is
cheap but requires Rea, which is the effort into making a spell work. I
wanted to reflect that in the magic system, so I'm hoping that came
across.

2) Do the Stunts make sense for the world described?

3) What else should be added in the core book? I'm hoping to create a
book that folks who are familiar and unfamiliar with both Pepper&Carrot
and Fate Accelerated can pick up and play. There's obvious issues with
the layout and issues with the ordering of chapters, and missing content
related to creatures and what to do once in this world, but with this
scaffolding in place what more would you like to explore in this world?

Please feel free to ping me here, on the framagit repo, or via the email
address on my About page.

Thank you for reading this far, and for your indulgence in helping an
amateur designer with low Fate experience get better at this. :)
