Buddhistdoor Quote for Today:

If the gold ore is not refined one will not obtain pure gold, if the milk is not churned one will not obtain butter, and if the sesame seed is not pounded one will not produce sesame oil.

In the same way, although buddha-nature is present in the minds of all beings, if the accidental stains are not removed, buddhahood will not be attained. — Khenpo Tsültrim Gyamtso Rinpoche (1934–2024)

Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Karma Chakmé (1613–1678)

Just as the victorious buddhas of the past
Set their minds upon awakening, then carried out activity,
I too generate such an intention so as to benefit beings,
And shall carry out bodhisattva activity on a vast scale. — Karma Chakmé (1613–1678)

Something that's been concerning me for a long time is how people don't want to leave social media platforms, even when they turn more toxic. The term these days is "enshittified".

I, for one, really appreciate #Mastodon for allowing one the ability to migrate from one instance to another, thereby not losing one's ever-so-precious "social graph".

Another interesting example of not losing one's "Social Graph" (in a migration from one server to another) is #Deltachat, which uses "AEAP" ("Advanced Email Address Porting").

I think these awesome migration features should be praised more. Taking such control back, over one's social graph is no small victory these days. Such ease of migration is a bulwark against enshittification; it's the easy ability to more elsewhere.

Note: #Buddhism has a comparable tradition of such protection through migration: once monks and nuns gain their "independence", they are much more free to wander from one monastery to the next.
