Samadhi	~         Dispassionate absorption ~         Spacious focus	1.       It sees: coming together is falling apart. 2.       Serene surrendering to the ceaseless. 3.       The luminous merging of mind and not-mind.
Samjña	~         (Mis)Recognition ~         Receiving the given	1.       To see the seer in the seeing. 2.       There is a seeing that only appears when the seer disappears—an ecstatic vision of no-one seeing nothing. 3.       The ego’s cunning—it doesn’t see itself seeing itself in everything it sees. 4.       The bigger the ego, the bigger the blindspot. (Just as the seen is conditioned by the unseen, seeing is conditioned by unseeing.)

Samkalpa	~      Desire to attain, obtain, contain ~      Habitual inclining	1.     Desire’s perverse preference for satisfaction over happiness. 2.     What is the cherished self but a confusion of crossed intentions? 3.     The elusive peace of intentionlessness. 4.     To widen the gap between intending and acting, do to do not in order to.
Samskara	~      The comforting familiarity of form ~      Petrified transformations	1.     Form a vanishing point denying its origin in the infinite circle of formation. (Effusing form’s myriad names, the anonymity of formation.) 2.     In the mind form effaces formation. This is called artifice. In the world form dissolves in formation. This is called realizing. (Where there is mind, there is form. When the mind withdraws, formlessness remains, that is to say, ceaseless formation.)
Sangha	~      Community building ~      Togethering	1.     Be-coming together to build the coming community. (With the encouragement of community comes the courage of solitude, the bliss of solitude rejoining the joy of the common good.)

Saranam	~         Taking refuge in reality ~         Renouncing utopia	1.       To be as hopeless and fearless as the grass. 2.       Home the lie at the heart of all stories. (Roaming the heart’s true refuge.)
Servitudo	~         The desire to obey ~         The desire to master	1.       The master cannot escape from the suffering of the slave. (Where the slave goes, the master must follow.)
Shamatha	~         Reposing in reality ~         Stopping	1.         a.       The wisdom of hesitation. b.       To interrupt the momentum of habit. (The habit of making habits the hardest habit to break.) c.       A new direction always starts with a pause. 2.         a.       No stopping, no going. b.       All doing that is not mere doing must arise from not-doing. c.       If you don’t drop what you’re doing, how can you pick up what’s happening? 3.       To stop bargaining with life.

Shunyata	~      Emptiness ~      Fullness	1.     The emptiness that passeth understanding. Shantih shantih shantih. 2.     What reality said. 3.     Every noun is a verb in disguise (or a preposition). 4.     At the intersection of emptiness and impermanence, the ecstasy of groundlessness.
Skandhas	~      Heapings ~      Composition	1.     My pile, your pile—the delusion of mine, the illusion of me. 2.     I call this pile my self, that pile the other—but it could have been otherwise. 3.     There is gathering, there is scattering.  (It’s gattering.)
Smriti	~      Minding the world, worlding the mind ~      The flux of namelessness	1.     To give what is the space to become what it must. 2.     To imagine happiness is to be separated from it. (Joy’s incommensurability—nothing to add, nothing to take away; no dividing, no multiplying.)

Sparsha	~      The risks of contact ~      Arriving at the other	1.     Wherever there is contact, a new world spins into being. (No intimacy, no space; no space, no intimacy.) Yes, I will risk everything—I will make contact. (Every contact an arrival, every arrival, contact.)
Sub specie aeternitatis	~      The timeless in time ~      Embracing space	1.     To keep eternity at the corner of one’s eyes. 2.     The seen returns to the unseen, the known to the unknown, the I to the I-less, eternally.
Substantia	~      Interbecoming ~      Universings	1.     The groundlessness of being: a.     Everything becomes. b.     Every becoming summons all other becomings. 2.     The universe begins and ends in becoming. This is the boundlessness of being. 3.     Enfolded by everything, every thing unfolds. (How can this be unless that becomes?)
