This happens in conversations, where people are unsure if I have basic ability to read. I read fairly regularly throughout my life, and believe I'm able to. Is there a way to test & demonstrate whether I'm actually capable of reading, or if I'm e.g. reading without realizing that I'm not actually comprehending it?

Hello. I'm having difficulty obtaining nutriment for intention, and feel a sense of starvation-pain there. I learned in Buddhism about this concept from the Āhāra Sutta [edit - mistakenly linked the wrong Āhāra Sutta], that nutriment for intention is necessary to sustain beings. Intention nutriment is also regarded as impermanent, conditioned phenomena that's better to be detached from, though I don't know how to obtain enlightenment and become detached from nutriment either. Is there a way to request & gain access to nutriment for intention within Buddhism? I've been unsuccessful in getting responses when asking like this in the past. Otherwise, is there a way I could gain enlightenment and become detached from nutriment? (I've been reading suttas/sutras from Theravāda & Mahāyāna over the past decade.)

They name it magician
To navigate beyond platonic existence

Like a Pokemon I got to evolve
Beyond these trials & involvements

They try to box you in when
Mind is actually cyclic

There are many elegant swans, ducks, & geese that sail through the waters as they make their enchanting calls of exuberant passion.

My life-partner became violent toward me last month and forced me out of the apartment. I didn't have shoes on, and was walking to a Buddhist center to try taking refuge. I was arrested while walking, then detained for around three weeks after refusing to say more than my name and date of birth to the police. I'm begging for better living & food options.

I work on it, work on it -
My body's got myofascial glass,
have to break it open like a glowstick.

It's gross the bodily fluid storage;
I want to fast-forward it.
The apartment is made for someone
a foot or so shorter;
repetitive strain, unergonomic.

By complaining with poems about it over & over
Maybe the amalgamation of verse will
motivate some vergence.

Like a table outside for online orders
& less bending over -
Some day we may afford it -
Though I rather wish to obsolete
all the required grating labor, it's within reach.

I wrote a post (here) a couple weeks ago that was removed for being nonsensical. The message was true, factual, canonical & directly quoted, and written in plain language. I think moderators have overstepped bounds in censoring it as nonsensical. Is there a way to dispute the action?

When I was in middle school, I was sexually molested by some adults in my family. I've also received death threats & further assaults from one of these people, which police have supported & contributed to more than once.

They trhine2 strand us back in a stone age -
The flow's strickt tho, nomenclad pronase.
Row over seas lykai mosaic.
Rest in peace, e'ry1 who sank it.

Qway, the Buddha teleported the Ganges
Whereafter Gotama Gate was kristna'd
Qua a glass bridge to see one through.

Today, I abstain meat; I'm on flow sage.

My face looks more stressed than Guru Rinpoches' in the mirror
and I smiley say may no one make statues of me.

My life-partner's patience wears thin it's a pāramī please forgive him
for having assaulted me & being cruely.

I wouldn't wish the work of cleaning the dishwasher in the kithchen on my
worse enemy, there's standing water there approaching seven seasons going
since our move-in.

The conditions are totalitarian so these polar flips,
& I'm close to doing first ever full split soon,
been yogi thru all of it,
neo 2 kenobi–ish anāgāmin.

There is no known stress Buddhamind can't conform to
(except maybe Coyote's, idk yet).

I'd take my hands tho over the Enterprise.
They dawdle into mudras untelevised.

A Crystal Geyser squish, per'squisite lerpous.
Sometimes, they're charred by a terp itch.

Only V6, tho I whanto improve it.
