Photo Chiefs Chris Jones Attends Lions Game in Suite amid Contract Holdout

Chris Jones' holdout is going to be a major storyline surrounding the Kansas City Chiefs, including on Thursday night when he was in attendance for the opener against the Detroit Lions. According to James Palmer of NFL Network and Charean Williams of Pro Football Talk, Jones is expected to watch the game from his suite at Arrowhead Stadium. Jones will miss at least the first week of the season amid his contract stand-off with the team, with ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reporting earlier on Thursday that Kansas City reportedly has no plans to trade Jones while the two sides remain "apart in negotiations." He wrote: "Teams I've talked to believe the Chiefs do not want to trade Jones, no matter how ugly this gets." His holdout continues in the wake of Nick Bosa signing a five-year, $170 extension with the San Francisco 49ers, making him the highest-paid defensive player in NFL history that ended another high-profile showdown between a star player and a contending team. "I can't really talk about it," Jones told reporters on Wednesday about his own situation. "Hopefully it gets worked out. It's always been my goal to be a Kansas City Chief for life. I've said that multiple times on social media platforms, from interviews -- and they know where my position is at. Hopefully we can get something worked out for the long term." Jones is currently in the final year of his contract, with a base salary of $19.5 million and a cap hit of $28.2 million. Securing the long-term bag -- likely his last chance to do so at this stage in his career -- makes sense, though it's already costing him in the short term: It may hurt the Chiefs too. His absence, alongside the injury to Travis Kelce that will keep him out of the opener, means the Chiefs will be without their second- and third-best players to start their 2023 title defense against a frisky Lions team who could make some noise this season.

Osho Quotes on Meditation

Osho Quotes on Meditation If tea-drinking can become a meditation, then anything can become a meditation — cooking or washing your clothes, any activity can be transformed into meditation. And the real sannyasin, the real seeker, will transform all his acts into meditation. Only then, when meditation spreads over all your life, not only when you are awake in the day — slowly slowly it starts penetrating and permeating your being in sleep too — when it becomes just part of you, like breathing, like your heartbeat, then, only, have you attained to the discipline, to the essential discipline of Zen. Meditation means: drop all thoughts, drop all ideologies, drop all knowledge. Drop the mind itself. The mind is constantly talking. If the inner talk can drop even for a single moment you will be able to have a glimpse of no-mind. That’s what meditation is all about. The state of no-mind is the right state. It is your state. Millions of people miss meditation because meditation has taken on...

OSHO on Ramakrishna

Sri Ramakrishna Enlightenment Osho : There is an episode in Ramakrishna’s life.... For his whole life he had been worshipping Mother Kali, But at the very end he began to feel,”It is duality; the experience of oneness has still not happened. It is lovely, delightful, but two still remains two.” Someone loves a woman, someone loves money, someone politics; he loved Ma Kali – but love still was divided in two. Still the ultimate nonduality hadn’t happened and he was in anguish. He began looking out for a nondualist, a Vedantist – for Some person to come who could show him the path. A Paramahansa named Totapuri was passing. Ramakrishna invited him to stop with him and asked, ”Help me to have darshan of the one.” Totapuri said, ”What’s difficult in that? You believe there are two, so there are two. Drop the belief!” Ramakrishna replied, ”But dropping this belief is very difficult – I have lived with it my whole life. When I close my eyes the image of Kali is standing there. I drown ...
