Miyamoto Musashi:

"Do nothing which is of no use"

Which is to say, stay on purpose.

All philosophies are mental fabrications. There has never been a single doctrine by which one could enter the true essence of things.

― Avatamsaka Sutra

In regards to pretty much anything, what do you have that doesn't boil down to a notion or "philosophy"?

You might say "everything is constructed or an invention".

Two possible dispositions to approaching that:

- "Fuck it, nothing matters" (and so create bad things as a result), or;

- "Okay then, let's make sure the things I construct are good things"

But then again, do we actually know whether that's true or not?
