Philosophy

• KnowingNothing here is meant to be believed; everything is meant to be tried, by the reader, inwardly, against six plain tests.
• Ethics: the Five UndertakingsThe whole moral code is five undertakings, renewed daily rather than enforced, each checkable from the inside.
• SelfAn instruction — look for the one doing the gripping — and a report of what is found, not a claim that there is no self.
• DeathThe Way promises nothing after death and asserts nothing either — only the dread, the bedside, and the grief can be checked.
• TechnologyA claim about one instrument, attention, and one hand — sharper or duller, checked fresh each afternoon, no program attached.
• SufferingSuffering retold as friction at the point of grip — traceable, sometimes loosened by being seen, never claimed as a cure for pain.

• Kept and LeftWhat this site took from Buddhism, Stoicism, and secular humanism, what it left, and why, with every quotation checked against its printed source.
