DAILY DHARMA
The women of the Therigatha are not limited by their suffering, nor does it define them. The wonder of it all is that, despite the pain (and perhaps in part because of it), these women tried for something more.

I watch Jamelle Bouie's personal takes on YouTube (he's editorial writer for the NY times and historian) and has been discussing the entire impulse of the current administration in the US is based on their own twisted view that the way to govern if based on toxic masculinity. Fascinating view.

I am not sure who they are. The woman is Phyllis Schlafley (my spell check wanted to change ti to schlemiel which I would have spit it out if I was drinking milk) but I can't figure out who the guy is....

A person holds a white sign with brown lettering that reads β€œLOVE THY NEIGHBOR (ALL of THEM!)” at an outdoor gathering. Additional smaller text appears in the upper right corner of the sign. Green trees are visible in the background under an overcast sky. Other people and signs are partially visible in the crowd.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The First Precept teaches non-harm. ICE’s violenceβ€”9 shootings, lives lostβ€”violates ahimsa. May we defund agencies that terrorize communities. Text SIGN PBKLZC to 50409 resist.bot/petitions/PB... #EngagedBuddhism #DefundICE
