Moving or shaking

To create focus-shift soft image, it is nesessary to

use a slow shutter speed = in consequence, pictures

easily get bluured —– don’t worry, bluured or

shaky picture is still the pictures.  😀

Photo above = I like this painting like effect.

Anyhow, I know, nobody would complain. 

In fact, to anybody, it’s not a matter at all.  

Ha ha ha   😀

You must feel a sigh of relief — this is normal shot.   🙂

So, this is it.   Aren’t they pretty ?   🙂

Google Horror (2)

Every week, Youtube is sending me the list of new viz.  

And what I received for 1^st of May was REALLY interesting

and you should see them too.

(Note, Youtube is a part of Google)

[][][]

Have look the screen capture here, and see what was

there on the bottom = “Recommended” = One left was

apparently the most dreadful kind of Porn viz,

“Copulation of a Girl and a Dog” and the one right

could be a Child Porn. Since I haven’t click them,

I don’t know what they are exactly.

And as my Broadband provider set a restriction for

adult contents, I don’t know what they are.

(To make a restriction lifted, it is necessary to

register with full name, DOB, Driving License Number

— though, I’m not such keen to give my ID for a sake

of somebody else’s sex viz at all — anyway,

I haven’t touch a woman since 1987.   😀 )

[]

Here the most astonishing fact was, “Did Youtube allow

to show those, the most degrading dreadful kind of Porn”

— does Google got any sense of “What is normal or right

or wrong”? — does Google think those kind of things ARE

worth recommending,— in other words, in Google’s

standard, those Porn are morally acceptable and

worth recommend to others ?

— And why they recommended those to me ? ? ?  

What sort of imagination or idea made this

“Recommendation”—– Only a possibility I can think

of is, this must be a dirty conspiracy = a Trap against me

since I put an exposing blog accusing

Google Android dirty Apps.

[]

= If I open those Porn, they record it as an evidence.

Or they could put those Porn Image/ File into my PC

—– then a Policeman knock the door.  

Or, is it the intimidation while implying “What would

happen next”. How do you think ?    

Did Google acquire filthy mind as dirty as “Animal F***” kind ?  

Or was that their default = hence they deluded others

must have the same taste and anxious to know

other’s privacy ! —– Here, the serious question IS,

Greedy and Filthy minded Google still expecting to receive

ANY respect from the society ? ? ?

— And the last question is, are they, actuary a person in

charge with, doing this ? — or automatic AI program is doing ?

= If it was done by AI, to develop a graphic pattern recognition

program to distinguish “Animal F***” and send it to me must

have a lots of work needed !

( Hasn’t Google got ANY better things to DO. ? ? ? )

—— Amazing isn’t it !

Google Horror

I’ve been using Android Tab let as a mobile photo book

to show others the photos of this blog, such as

” Modify the lens. and its Optical effect” which is easy

to show but almost impossible to verbally explain.

— With security precaution, I registered my device in

different name and to have different Mail address. 

With obvious false name, no hacking, no virus ever come

here, neither Google/Android gave a sit =  no possibility

to make money out of this address = hence it’s been quiet

untill few days ago, when I  needed to read my mail out

 London, using my tablet.

= suddenly the usage rocketed up.

Frantic activity toward my Email

account, address list etc etc.

Those so-called APP is not what

I wanted, neither installed by me.

Still, Google says “You agree to

our policy” though, what they 

says the policy is nothing but an

outrageous extortion.

We might have compromised to see

some AD on the side, but never agree to

give a permission to spy all the mail, and all of our

movement. — (You know, your secret naughty USB

dongle would no longer be secret = could even be

reported to the Police.  Be careful !)

You can see what they says –> go to Settings –> then to Apps

H

Horrifying isn’t it !   Are they insane ?  Ever had common

sense ?  — I try to uninstall the App, deactivate, and

empty the data without success — while I was working,

instead to succeed removing those Spyware, the address list

“Contact” was disappeared !  = (Tit for tat)

Very  very  Funny.  😀

Google has been making a friendly face and try to appeal with some

amazing invention etc —– though, that IS their cover-up mask.

 And those Apps are their real intention.    Using their internet

 dominance which can reach any corner and the well-developed

AI system to aautomatically read (even read the image) and spy

= they are going deeper into our private life,— for making

more profit !    But they’ve gone too far !

— A remedy or a measure against such situation is = Instead

of Android, use Linux, or to have a small MS device registered

with funny or useless name and use it to connect to the Net = 

It would be enough for mailing, watching YouTube, small

download.  Use other PC which is not connected to the Net, for

heavy work (design, compiling, analysing etc) in business,

Industrial use.   Address list shouldn’t be kept in that satellite

device = type one by one each time = it would be a life in the

stone-age though this IS the safer way to keep one’s life

in peace.  (I don’t think I’m a paranoid —– I just don’t

like a big cooperates arrogance)

Then the real horror started = As those APPs automatically

checking the activity, mail contents etc, etc, and keep

updating, the data traffic become enormous.  

Past 4~5 years, my use of Net (read news, mail and blog)

needed only up to 3Gb/month but with Android APPs,

the data traffic swelled to 3~4 times. = This is yet another

Extortion / Highway Robbery isn’t it ? !

—————————-

***** A remedy / evading action I found was, 

1) Re-start (Format) the Device by Pressing start button

over a Minuit.  Then pretend to start as normal =

2) While ignoring “Their request to Authenticate“, 

3) Press “All menu button (6 Dots in a circle)

4) and go to where ever you want to do = such as

Google Search of the Blog and read it 0r take

pictures etc etc.

5) Where ever, when ever they ask you to Register,

Give your profile = Just IGNORE all of them.

(In the settings, USER = leave the user as Owner,

don’t touch it.  (Without Register,  or ignoring what

ever they asked, the Device works perfect !)

6) Biggest disadvantage was= can’t use Email other

than use in a false new account.

— With those operations, the Device was regarded

as an orphan and become out of their target =

NO download of their App hence no update =

the usage become purely what was used.

Cherry Cherry – 2016

Those photos were from the several Cherry trees,

probably the last cherry photos of this year.

Lens used was that modified Tokina-Wide-Converter

with bellows on Canon 5D Mk-III.

—– Don’t you agree, £1 junk from an Odds n’ Ends box

of a Camera shop wasn’t too bad.  😀

.

Self — No-Self

This was quoted from a part of the previous post.

(To talk about the SELF need to recognize the existence of it = need to

have yet another Self to observe its existence ! — if you can aware/

observe yourself, your observer has already alienated  YOU. )

 —– it seems I need to say a bit more :

When you got another “You” = you are no longer innocent happy mam.

Instead you start try to impose “What you’ve conceived your figure”

which is no more than a wish-full imagination OR distorted, depressed

“Hate-figure”.

To see the True figure of Yourself is one of the most difficult

task in the life. = First of all, it is hidden deep in your

subconscious,

and often, half of them were what you don’t want see.

So, the most of the people try to make-up something looks good,

(to satisfy your Ego, pride/vanity and want to show-off to others)

—– though, not necessary everybody, everything to be such ugly.  

= Try to do better IS the default of our survival instinct !

(If we fail, the repercussion/drawback would be harsh ! = even a

fraud-star try to invent better story, and sword-master

practiced hard to kill the enemy )

So that, in the Four Noble Truth in the Buddhist Teachings,

“The effort to seek the Enlightenment” is very natural. 

—– When you fail, still to see straight to the “Failed Yourself” =

IS in fact, a kind of the Enlightenment. (according to the Mahayana)

(To see yourself as it IS = IS see it without any impose = No-Ego, No-Self !)

  = Don’t worry, relax !   😀

Paradox on No-Self

Despite the Buddhism IS the teachings of the NO-Self,

there is no explanation of “What is no-self” in the scripture.

Even more peculiar phenomena were = there were hundreds,

if not thousands of description of “the ideal person” still

there was no words saying that the man has no-self. — Why ?  

Because there IS NO-Self.

(To talk about the SELF need to recognize the existence of it = need to

have yet another Self to observe its existence ! — if you can aware/

observe yourself, your observer has already alienated  YOU. )

.

Our feeling was induced by the Limbic System of our brain. 

In fact, all the signal from the sensing organs goes to the

Limbic System first and the most of important process =

selection of those signal, cognition, judgement etc etc were

done in there and only the last result goes to the New Cortex

of the brain and then converted to the conscious and given

the lexical interpretation.  = It’s mean, we human being has

enough wisdom to sense the environment and judge the

appropriate response to have the daily life by the process of

the Limbic System alone though, all those feelings and the

process are hidden under the darkness of the Subconscious/

Unconsciousness they ARE invisible for the most of us. 

Those process were called instinct though as they were

hidden, often we don’t know why we took such reaction. 

So that, when we say “This IS my decision and how I think”

they ARE only a conscious part of the process in the brain.

= And we called this = “Self-Conscious” and the SELF.

Lord Buddha saw this Self-Conscious as a mere delusion

and it was coherent with the view of No-Self = Anatman.

=== To become aware of the SELF is the sign of

the alienation to yourself and the break-down of Mushin.

(State of the Mind of No-mind) —– It IS the paradox.

And this paradox, delusion IS the loot-cause of the

discord to our nature / Dharma.

OMG Kumamoto

Photo = Jiji-Press (http://www.jiji.com/jc/d4?p=keq414-jpp021234025&d=d4_qq )

Photo above = On the tremor of Kumamoto Earthquake,

a fallen rock crushed a car.  There were many land-slides. 

One engulfed and swept away an electric power station,

and the other made a big bridge completely disappeared.

So, there must be many fallen rocks, still

the photo above looks utterly unbelievable.

—– that rock seems to be 3~4m big and weight well may

be over 10 tons (?). —– in the photo, no another mud or

stone was seen around = it’s mean, that rock jumped

down alone = Can you imagine = 10 tons rock tumbled

down the mountain slope and “Bang” on a car.

Looks almost surreal !

Still, the misery and hardship who lost their house, not

mention the victims who lost their lives or injured,

the pain is absolutely real.

I play the early recovery of the victims and the people

whose life has been affected.

Enigmatic ?

People says that the Buddhism is the enigma.

Well, if the person says it’s an enigma, the person knows it half.

Half ? —– Yes the person already learned half of it !

It’s remarkable, despite the Buddhism is in the enigma.

Why it’s in enigma ? = Because the Buddhism is not teaching

the crucial matter in the words.

Why ?

Because, to learn it without the words is crucial, therefore

it wouldn’t be taught or explained by the words.

So, to know the situation and able to describe its Enigma is a

sure sign of that the person did come half way. = It’s great. 

Well done.

(The point of this was described in this post.) = and as the story

tells, it’s point / secret was not clearly understood even by the

Lord Buddha’s closest disciple Ananda.

—– Because the teachings of Selfless or learning of selfless has

to be done in Selfless  = It’s mean without the person aware of it

= couldn’t be told / couldn’t be heard. = Once you consciously

heard the word / explanation, your conscious / Self become

aware of it = it IS a breakdown of the Selfless.

Lord Buddha taught Selfless in this way (could anyway else ?) =

so, the Buddhism was seen to be an Enigma.

[]

Hence, you have to learn Buddhism / Zen in a Selfless way = it’s

mean you just do the practice until you get the Selfless state =

Mushin (Mind of no-mind). 

And when you become able to live in the selfless way, you are

NOT conscious of your state, therefore you can NOT able to

observe yourself = you can NOT describe it in the words.

= So, you don’t know what it IS, nor others know either !

Everything stays in the depth of Subconscious.

Therefore, the Buddhism stays in Enigma.

—– IS it clear ?  (= it’s a paradox isn’t it !)  😀

Test of Selflessness (The most important Post)

Ephemeral Evanescence

Beauty in Japanese nature and the people’s life style, well

harmonized with its nature is so famous = so, you may think.

And you may think a famous touristic spot of such as the

Cherry Blossom is naturally there from ancient time.

Well, this IS the biggest paradox or contradiction, even

a trick in the Japanese culture.  = Virtually all the famous

Cherry spots are intentionally created by planting the tree

which was artificially grafted and propagated Somei-yoshino. 

—– Cherry tree has limited life about 60~100 years. 

Therefore, those Cherries of the famous places has been

re-planted 2~3 times since the original Somei-yoshino came.

(simply, when the tree became too big,  they brake and fall)

Because of the Somei-yoshino could only be propagated by

grafting,  unless the tree was intentionally planted,

it wouldn’t exist there.  They are the Created Art.

The situation is the same in those Japanese gardens,

even a garden in the Buddhist temple was “created”

= Still they look like a real landscape in great nature.

(I don’t think, you ever imagined that famous Rock Garden

in the Ryoan-ji temple did naturally exists there.  😀  )

It’s like a Bonsai !    Looks like a great tree in the nature —

though, to create those realistic Bonsai tree, the craftsman

spent 10 even 50 years to shape it. = This IS the Zen. 

The most peculiar things in the Japanese culture / Ethos is

such Zen Ethos has been kept not only by the monk or

religious people but by everybody without their conscious.

Zen doesn’t speak. It have to be learned by looking and to

try oneself. Therefore, what learned couldn’t be explained.

(Because they are not aware of it, they don’t talk about,

therefore, foreign journalist could not find and describe it.

= So, the Japanese mind/attitude/Ethos stay in the myth.)

And the Zen Ethos of impermanence/ephemerality, even a

death has been symbolized in the Japanese Cherry Blossom.

( = Beauty in its fall !)

(Hence, lots of Japanese Military establishments having their emblem

with Cherry flower pattern, and their barrack has Cherry garden.  

And the Kamikaze suicidal-rocket-bomb made on the last stage of the

last war was named Ouka = 桜花 = Cherry Blossom )

[]

Zen and its ethos keep driving the Japanese to even more

refinement/improvement = So that, the next generation of

Somei-yoshino is coming as the Jindai-akebono which is

stronger than Somei-yoshino against the virus.

(This new variety of Cherry has been created by crossing the

Edo-higan Zakura and the (almost original) Somei-yoshino

back from Washington USA.  Now the Flower Association of

Japan stop to distribute Somei-yoshino and recommending

to plant Jindai-akebono.)  (The name Jindai =  because it 

was established in the Jindai Botanical Garden in Tokyo)

—– to express the beauty and its ephemerality and the tree

to symbolize it = Cherry = and the quest to develop stronger

tree in order to express ephemerality is a real paradox.  😀
