<content type="html"><p>The following are musicians/bands that I have had the luxury of watching in

person. I note the venues where I have caught their performances, in the

hopes that a new-comer to the scene may have an idea of where to check out.</p>
|

<p>I record in the format of <em>Name of musician(s). Name of performance-venue.

I thank Him for that.</p>

<content type="html"><p>One of my room-mates - who has just moved in, in the past two weeks or so -
|
||
said he is leaving tomorrow to reside at his new work-place, a ‘vegetable farm’.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Yes, he said he would be staying on the farm.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>And he says that ‘in the beginning’, he would have no pay/salary. Perhaps he
|
||
would have food and accommodation.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>When I asked him for the name of the place, he said it is called ‘Onesimus Garden’,
|
||
which he claims is in the area of Lim Chu Kang (probably in the north-west region
|
||
of the island of Singapore).</p>

<title>A new way? nineteenth of March 2018: Night</title>

<link href="http://tilde.town/~rogbeer/2018/03/19/night/"/>

<updated>2018-03-19T00:00:00+00:00</updated>

|
||
<content type="html"><p>When did it become an assumption that I have to have a password on the
|
||
Internet or even my desktop-computer? I was inspired to think if
|
||
something has gone wrong, in the design of Internet-and-computer
|
||
technologies, when I realised that an engineering problem - how to
|
||
display certain information on a web-site - could possibly be solved by
|
||
letting users run commands on the server (as opposed as viewing data on
|
||
a client) Passwords, levels of privilege, ‘admininistrator-rights’ -
|
||
don’t all these scream ‘I don’t trust you. I don’t trust others’ Now is
|
||
that what I want in my life, I ask. Do I want to indirectly say ‘I don’t
|
||
trust others’ every time I use a technology. Or do I want to spend time
|
||
building (trust in) relationships that arguably are made and broken by
|
||
(mutual) trust. Does using technology necessarily mean that I have to
|
||
give up on trust and/or trust-building. Is it possible we could find a
|
||
new way to use technology so that we find the satisfaction (and
|
||
intimacy) that comes from a rewarding relationship with a something. A
|
||
god. A business-partner. So on and so forth.</p>

|
||
<content type="html"><p>I’m suffering. They are suffering.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>How to put an end to suffering? For myself.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Others can try out my methods if they want.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>And of course they have to find out their own way.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Kodo Suzuki Roshi said that adults have to become like children, and children have to become like adults,
|
||
for children to grow. Apparently, he said that.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>If I were a foster parent of all these lovable children in the world, my impending death is something
|
||
I have to deal with. Preparations have to be made for other people to help all these children grow,
|
||
so that my death will not stop their growth.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Yes, as Jobs said, death means having to tell your children what you thought you would
|
||
have the rest of your life so tell.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>THere is a temple called Antaiji in Japan. The people there practice zazen that is good for nothing.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>There is a person who is helping people to find a suitable livelihood. She also practises Zen. Her
|
||
book is a work-in-progress. It is predicted to be published in Fall 2017. Her name is Maia Duerr.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>There are people who teach Zen in Singapore. Their names are Vivienne and Boey Wah Keong.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>They will do what I amy not have the time to do. At least, they can do what I may run out of time to do.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Zazen is good for nothing. It is the way to liberate-save suffering people-human. Suzuki Roshi
|
||
said that.</p>
