Good morning mushroom fam! ☀️

Many people ask me what does Üpaia mean? I always tell them that it is a word inspired by the Buddhist term ‘Upaya’. I first came across it’s meaning while listening to one of Alan Watts lectures. I want to share with you his words around the meaning of Upaya.

“I see you all as being right exactly where you are. All of you buddhas. And even those of you who don’t know it, it would be right for you not to know it in this moment.

In talking about Buddhism it is fundamental to the understanding of Buddhism to recognize that its whole method of teaching is dialectic. That is to say, it consists of a dialogue between a teacher and a student. And the method of this dialogue is called Upaya. That is to say, skillful means used by the teacher to bring about the enlightenment of the student. The word Upaya meaning expert pedagogy in teaching.
Since Buddhism is a dialogue, what you ordinarily understand as the teachings of Buddhism, are not the teachings of Buddhism, they are simply the opening process of this dialogue - and the point being that Buddhism is not a teaching, it’s essence consists in a kind of experience, in a transformation of consciousness called awakening.” - Alan Watts.

Breaking Spawn ⚡️

Fully colonized mushroom spawn is broken up into pieces before transferring it into a sterile substrate.

The spawn will fully colonize the substrate until it’s ready to fruit.

And it also feel really good to break up spawn 😎
