Larry tells Joe that Zachary spat on the floor of his | |||

Jolly and Larry into his improvised alcove bedroom in [[Karma (Part 4)]]; | |||
Larry kept using the master bedroom's bathroom.</ref> | |||

agrees. | |||

shop then picking it up, how he took payment in dope. | |||

22:10: Kornfield says [[Wikipedia:D%C5%8Dgen|Zen master Dogen]] | |||

29:50: Larry tells Joe that he asked Zachary to stay around home that | |||
day. Zachary wants to smoke Larry's dope. Larry tells Joe he doesn't | |||

much, feels bloated. Larry remembers his youth, that he just wanted | |||
to feel good, can see that Zachary's behavior is alike. | |||
37:00: Jack Kornfield tells about | |||
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Kabat-Zinn Jon Kabat-Zinn], who | |||

mindfulness. | |||

about a nun he fell in love with, people perked up. Kornfield then | |||

story about how a female moth's pheromones make the male moth feel | |||
like flying. | |||

Larry writes a poem about a Bonnard painting, The Terrace at Vernonnet, in this episode. You can see it [https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/489687 here at The Met's website]. | |||
I recommend a trip to Vernon when you're in Paris. It's a nice little | |||
town accessible by commuter train. Monet lived at Giverny, a village | |||
about 2 km away, a pleasant walk. It has his lily pond. It's a | |||
little museum now.[[User:Arthur Peabody|Arthur Peabody]] ([[User talk:Arthur Peabody|talk]]) 23:14, 19 February 2022 (EST) | |||
