  Solemates - A History of Our...

  Why are feet so hot? When Jesus washed his bros' feet, what kind of love was he showing? Why did feet show up in poetry written during a medieval outbreak of gonorrhoea? How did early sexologists convince us that loving feet is deviant? And what did Victorian lesbians make of all this?
  These are the questions thrusting Adam Zmith into a history of toe-botherers who will guide the reader through the sex archives, the online forums and a millennium of art, with his trademark queer lens.
  Solemates will bring to light the history of this peculiarly popular kink. From Tarantino films to Bible stories, from Renaissance paintings to OnlyFans, Solemates is the rich and messy tale of our obsession with everything below the ankle, and what it reveals about how we view our bodies and our sex lives.

  Excerpt from Individual and Society by Nyanaponika Thera
   
  The [Satipaṭṭhāna] sutta deals with the relations between ourselves and our fellow beings, between individual and society. It sums up in a succinct way the Buddhist attitude to the problems of individual and social ethics, of egoism and altruism. The gist of it is contained in those two concise sentences:
   
  “Protecting oneself, one protects others” (Attānaṃ rakkhanto paraṃ rakkhati), and
   
  “Protecting others, one protects oneself” (Paraṃ rakkhanto attānaṃ rakkhati).

  This is an audiobook of Bodhi Leaves No.136 by Tan Acharn Kor Khao-suan-luang (Upāsikā Kee Ñāṇayon), 'A Good Dose of Dhamma: For Meditators WhenThey Are Ill' found in the Pariyatti Edition of Collected Bodhi Leaves Vol. V. Translated from the Thai by Thanissaro Bhikkhu. 
   
  Excerpt from Chapter 1 
  "Normally, illness is something we all have, but the type of illness where you can still do your work isn’t recognised as illness. It is called the normal human state all over the world. Yet really, when the body is in its normal state, it is still ill in and of itself. People in general are simply unaware of the fact that there is the deterioration of physical and mental phenomena, continually, from moment to moment. 
  The way people get carried away with their thoughts and preoccupations while they’re still strong enough to do this and do that: that’s really complacency. They’re no match at all for people lying in bed ill.People lying in bed ill are lucky because they have the opportunity to do nothing but contemplate stress and pain. Their minds don’t take up anything else, don’t go anywhere else. They can contemplate pain at all times—and let go of pain at all times as well."
