Two days ago
an elderly neighbour recounted his dream of a golden brain on a black pedestal and suggested we might like to picture it.
This morning
at the door, an unexpected gift.

subitism [ see also : subiTARism )
The term subitism points to sudden awakening, the idea that insight into Buddha-nature, or the nature of mind,[1] is "sudden,"[2] c.q. "in one glance," "uncovered all together," or "together, completely, simultaneously," in contrast to "successively or being uncovered one after the other."[3] It may be posited as opposite to gradualism, the original Buddhist approach which says that following the dharma can be achieved only step by step, through an arduous practice.

Yes, Minister : PAY ARTISTS LAST
Arts sector to share in $250m in loans, grants as part of COVID-19 package
Arts Minister Paul Fletcher 
TWITTER :
We’ve just found out why no one even knows whether they are even eligible for the so-called support package for arts and entertainment workers. The guidelines brief is still sitting on the Minister’s desk waiting for his signature.
This is a sector that was almost completely shut down by Government decisions in March. But for three months they insisted the sector - which employs hundreds of thousands of people - was getting enough support and didn’t need a rescue package.
That eventually became untenable. So after more than 100 days of dithering they finally announced a $250m support package on June 25.
The package has some problems but Labor welcomed the extra investment. The sector needs all the support it can get.
But more than six weeks later, nothing has happened. Not a dollar has been spent. No guidelines for the grants and loans have been released. No one knows whether they will even be eligible to apply.
Once the guidelines are approved it could take another 12 weeks until any grants or loans are approved. That means November.
So, November..... That is eight months after this crisis began and this entire sector was almost completely shut down.
We asked the Office of the Arts about the delay in a Senate committee yesterday. They told us they had finished the guidelines - and were waiting on Minister Paul Fletcher to approve them.
While the sector is desperately waiting for help the guidelines are sitting on the minister’s desk just waiting for his signature. No worries minister, it’s not like it’s urgent or anything.
This is sadly typical of this Government: the delivery never matches the announcement, the reality never matches the promise. Australia’s arts and entertainment sector workers deserve much better than this.

to be calm
paint-writ ship
on a wordless see
JAANUS : Paintings or prints of this boat usually include a special and auspicious poem which reads the same when read backwards from the end:
nagakiyo no/ tou no nemuri no/ mina mezame/ naminori fune no/ oto no yokikana
長き夜の/ 遠の眠りの/ 皆目覚め/ 波乗り船の/ 音のよきかな
'Awakening from a deep sleep after a long night,
I seem to hear the sweet sound of a boat
sailing through the waves.'
Wikipedia : A picture of the ship forms an essential part of traditional Japanese New Year celebrations. According to custom, placing a Takarabune woodblock print beneath a pillow on the night of 2 January may induce a lucky dream – a sign that the year to come will be fortunate. In the event of an unpleasant dream, the print may be disposed of by tossing it into a river.
The custom of putting a picture under the pillow started around the Muromachi period. It was initially popular among the nobility, and spread to commoners during the later Edo period. Street vendors sold cheap woodblock prints, intended for single use.
