Looks like a Field Marshall Turkish von Turkenstein strategic planning session to me! Heart rate is probably in the low teens.
As they say: “Don’t sweat the small stuff…..and it’s all small stuff”.
Aaaaaaaaaahhhh….to be so lucky!! 🙂

Poor position on the cushions. The priest would give him a whack with the kyosaku. But then the priest might get one back, and the Turk’ don’t play.

“All life is suffering” somehow doesn’t seem to apply here.

We’re looking at the Second Noble Truth here: The suppression of suffering has been achieved.

Never could get past that all life is suffering law. So, I think Turk is one with the universe. Same thing?

The Turk’ is embodying the realization that all sentient beings have already been saved, so he’s taking the rest of the day off.

Say what??!!

Yeah, that’s what I said, too. And then the Turk’ gave me a whack with the kyosaku.

Good for the Turk! I had to look up both sentient and kyosaku…….still not sure what they mean in the context of enlightenment et al. 🙂

Turk could be a Zen Master. He is definitely a Master.

Cats could possibly save the planet if we just pay attention to them. Ever notice how they can find a sunspot in your house and bask in it luxuriously even on what appears to be an overcast day? Because of this innate sense to find a heat source, I predict Apple or maybe Tesla will develop miniature cat-mounted solar panels for recharging batteries thereby dropping our dependence further on fossil fools….er I mean fuels. And thinking of batteries, nothing can store and release energy like a cat. Just when I think our middle aged cat is getting as slow and fat as me, he’ll see a flying insect in the house and perform feats of athleticism beyond what you’d think possible even from a drug-pumped Soviet gymnast.

and cats seem to be more active at night filling in the gap left by solar power.

I think Turk just realized that he’s a genius. And, that he has been a genius and very stable his whole life. He’s relaxed because he knows he is smarter than anyone around him.

Heh. And he’s not even orange.
