All a matter of perspective

A lovely indie game crafter (go check out his game here) sent me this photo and I totally mistook the title as being a part of the image. pugthinkingNow I may have surprised him when I replied to his tweet featuring this lovely puglet by saying it would go on my Buddhist blog. Little bit of a disconnect there given that THE TITLE OF THIS TUMBLR IS ‘YOU ARE BUT A THOUGHT’ AND NOT THE TITLE OF THE POST!

At very least it makes for an interesting story and may have served to give someone a koan to figure out.

‘Does a pug tumblr image possess inherent emptiness?’

you are but a thought

    There’s much to contemplate in the last “bit” in this 4 minute YouTube video from Ze Frank . One might call it “Zen and the Art of Fetch.”

    Your post is Too Cute (I guess I have animal videos on the brain), too funny, and too true.

      I just adore that video you posted.

      I kinda hope that enlightenment will come via an LOLcat. Could it be that simple?

    Animals are just very sweet beings that want our attention and love. They are just full of characteristics just like us. Each and every animal is different in their own way.

    I really like these cute animal photos here as well.

      Thank you for sharing.

      I love how much Tsem Rinpoche loves animals. He is such a smart (and funny) teacher.
