240519 What I learned in my studies this morning 4

Today's Meditation(s):

Discourses, 2.6.1-2 (Waterfield)

Indifferent doesn't mean indifference. It's a category shift.

These things are not judged good or bad. They merely are. They can be manipulated, but there's no independent moral connection to them.

Good and bad, moral and immoral are states of my internal reason. They apply only to me by me. I cannot make someone else good or bad (though I may show them their errors and hope for the best).

I must train my desire and aversion to reflect reality. I must love my fate, if I am to be truly free.
