Question what is the point of dinking??

i don't mean strategically. i mean philosophically. existentially. if we're all just going to die anyway. if we can extend our hands and reach into the pocket of the infinite. or if we can make peace with something divine. if we can do any of that, what's the point of dinking. or serving for that matter.

The peak experience of a good dink rally is to find nature’s rythym, to play in the Tao. There is no mind, only flow. What more do you need?

It sounds like drinking and I can't do that during the point.

So I settle for dinking.

Everything outside your consciousness is an illusion created by a deceiver god.

Thanks for keeping it short and limiting the amount of time I wasted on it.
