The fresco of Ulysses and the Sirens is a famous work of art depicting an episode from the ancient Greek epic poem "The Odyssey," attributed to Homer. In this fresco, we see Ulysses, the Greek hero, tied to the mast of his ship to resist the temptation of the sirens (Homer, Odyssey, Book XII).

- One might think that not all emotions are suffering β what about love, joy, creative inspiration, devotion, ecstasy, peace, union, fulfillment, relief?
We believe that emotion is necessary for poetry, songs, and art. Our definition of βsufferingβ isnβt fixed, and it is limited. Siddharthaβs definition of βsufferingβ is much more vast and yet much more specific and clear.
Some kinds of suffering, such as aggression, jealousy, and headaches, have an obvious negative quality, while others are more subtly painful. For Siddhartha, anything that has a quality of uncertainty and unpredictability is suffering. For instance, love may be pleasant and fulfilling, but it doesnβt spring independently out of the blue. It depends on someone or something, and therefore it is unpredictable.
At the very least, one is dependent on the object of love and, in a sense, always on a leash. And the additional hidden conditions are uncountable. For this reason it is also futile to blame our parents for our unhappy childhood or to blame ourselves for our parentsβ disharmony, because we are not aware of the many hidden dependent conditions involved in these situations.
Tibetans use the words rangwang and shenwang to represent βhappinessβ and βunhappiness.β They are difficult to translate precisely; rang means βselfβ and wang means βpower,β βrights,β or βentitlement,β while shen means βother.β Broadly speaking, as long as one is in control, one is happy, and as long as someone else holds the leash, one is unhappy.
Therefore the definition of βhappinessβ is when one has full control, freedom, rights, leisure, no obstacles, no leash. That means the freedom to choose and the freedom not to choose, the freedom to be active or to be leisurely.
There are certain things we can do to bend conditions to our advantage, such as taking vitamins to become strong or drinking a cup of coffee to wake up. But we canβt hold the world still so that it wonβt stir up another tsunami.
We canβt prevent a pigeon from hitting the windshield of our car. We canβt control the other drivers on the freeway. A big part of our life revolves around trying to make other people cheerful, primarily so that we can feel comfortable. Itβs not nice living with someone who sulks all the time.But we canβt keep another personβs emotions upbeat at all times.
We can try, and maybe weβll even succeed sometimes, but such manipulation requires a great amount of maintenance. Itβs not enough to say βI love youβ just once in the beginning of a relationship. You have to do the right thing β send flowers, pay attention β until the end.
If you fail even once, everything you have built can fall apart. And sometimes, even if you give undivided attention, the object of your attention may misinterpret, not know how to accept, or not be receptive at all.
A young man anticipates a candlelight dinner with the girl of his dreams, imagining how the night will unfold, how he will woo and charm her. But thatβs just his imagination, a guess. Whether it is an educated or an uneducated guess, itβs still just a guess.
Basically we canβt be 100 percent prepared all the time. Therefore our obstacles and opponents need to be successful only 1 percent of the time to do all their damage: a slip of the tongue, accidental expulsion of gas, one casual glance away from the X-ray machine at the airport security checkpoint.
We might think that we arenβt really suffering, and even if we are, it isnβt so terrible. After all, we arenβt living in the gutter or being massacred in Rwanda.
Many people think, I am OK, I am breathing, I am having breakfast, everything is going as well as can be expected, I am not suffering. But what do they mean? Do they mean this 100 percent? Have they stopped preparing for things to get better? Have they dropped all their insecurities? If such an attitude comes from genuine contentment and appreciation for what they already have, this kind of appreciation is what Siddhartha recommended.
But rarely do we ever witness such content; there is always this constant nagging feeling that there is more to life, and this discontent leads to suffering.
Siddharthaβs solution was to develop awareness of the emotions. If you can be aware of emotions as they arise, even a little bit, you restrict their activity; they become like teenagers with a chaperone. Someone is watching, and the power of Mara is weakened.
Siddhartha was not injured by the poison arrows because of his awareness that they were merely illusions. In the same way, our own powerful emotions can become as harmless as flower petals.
And when the apsaras approached Siddhartha, he could see clearly that they were just assembled phenomena, like a fire ring, and therefore they lost their allure. They couldnβt get a rise out of him. Similarly, we break the spell of temptation by seeing that the objects of our desire are actually just assembled phenomena.
When you begin to notice the damage that emotions can do, awareness develops. When you have awareness β for example, if you know that you are on the edge of a cliff β you understand the dangers before you. You can still go ahead and do as you were doing; walking on a cliff with awareness is not so frightening anymore, in fact it is thrilling.
The real source of fear is not knowing. Awareness doesnβt prevent you from living, it makes living that much fuller. If you are enjoying a cup of tea and you understand the bitter and the sweet of temporary things, you will really enjoy the cup of tea.What Makes You Not a Buddhist -Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse -Shambhala Publications, Inc.

- This is for you @lensprotocol β thank you for having me!
Use of the term *aperture* is of course a reference to this beautiful decentralized sanctuary!
More figuratively, the poem explores the idea of *interstitial spaces*, or intervals and gaps, in which we may come together and celebrate both that which unites us and that which sets us deliciously apart.
Like many other artists, I have acute platform fatigue at this point and I'm grateful to have found a space where writing, sharing and connecting is not entirely an exercise in futility.
Special thanks to my delightful friend @mchx_.lens for rescuing me from X.
