Reply to TIL that Transdermal Celebration by Ween has a guitar solo that was played with Carlos Santana's guitar without him knowing it. Ween sneaked into the storage where Santana's tools were, played the solo just once, recorded it, and left the place. That solo is the one used in the final song. by outfoxingthefoxes
Dean can play his fuckin ass off but Ween is meh

I really love the Eknath Easwaran translation I have, I wonder what other English translations are considered defining?

It is incredibly how perfectly Schopenhauer aligns with the goals and views expressed in the sutras and Upanishads, though of course his Will is more dire than the wheel of karma, which however in contrast seems to be less compassionate to suffering. I’ve always felt that Schopenhauer contends with the experience of life as it is at a much more basic and universal level than his contemporaries and arrives at very similar conclusions to the wizened sages of ancient times.
