‘If It’s Hillary Clinton It’s War,’ Says Vladimir Putin To Frightened Russian People. Hillary Clinton brings the real threat of war, not Donald Trump, according to Vladimir Putin, as election news has Russia gearing up for a possible attack.

‘If It’s Hillary Clinton It’s War,’ Says Vladimir Putin To Frightened Russian People

Hillary’s image as a war hawk is lost on mainstream American voters, but Russia, Europe, and other nations saw a not-so-warm-and-fuzzy side of Hillary when she was Secretary of State, and the contents of Mrs. Clinton’s intercepted emails has not served to soothe their fears.

Buddhadasa Bhikkhu - THE THINGS WE CLING TO

What is our handhold? What we are clinging to is the world itself. In Buddhism the word "world" has a broader connotation than it has in ordinary usage. It refers to all things, to the totality. The Mathisen Corollary. I fucking love Chaos Magick – Page 2 – "Nothing has Ultimate Truth; Anything remains Possible." Purpose: It is the intention of this working to create a particular type of servitor called a Watcher.

The Watcher’s function, as its name implies, is to act as guardian for its creator, functioning in effect as an extra pair of eyes. It may be bound to a particular place as a watchman, or may be of a more spatially general nature, per the specifications of the conjurer.

Buddhism and gnosticism

Worse still, at bottom, it only gives suffering to its subjects who cling to it. In the final analysis, nothing is signified by the phenomenal world except its nothingness as an illusion. Said another way, there is a radical discontinuity between phenomenal reality and spiritual reality in both Buddhism and gnosticism (even in the Gospel of John, which is not considered to be a gnostic text, we find the gnostic theme of light and darkness clearly established in the first chapter). For the average person this seems unimportant. Buddhism and Gnosticism.

Buddhism in a Nutshell - Anatta. PADMASAMBHAVA: ENSEÑANZAS. Reading Sutras as a Spiritual Practice - from the Western Chan Fellowship. By Chan Master Sheng Yen A talk delivered at Tibet House in New York City, on 5 November, 1994 and edited by Linda Peer and Harry Miller, edited with permission for NCF by John Crook 1998. In this talk Shifu tells us about the traditional uses to which the Sutras are put in China. Some of us may like to make use of these methods. For Westerners Sutra reading is also important. In particular the oldest Sutras, the ones Ananda so carefully remembered and which begin: "Thus have I heard...

" reveal for us exactly what Gautama the Buddha was like as a man teaching, instructing and dealing with everyday matters of life in the 6th century BC. The Buddhist scriptures are divided into three categories. The Heart Sutra is common to all Chinese Buddhist sects. Esta es la única diferencia entre el nirvana y el samsara. El poeta John Milton escribió en su Paraíso Perdido: "La mente es su propio lugar, y puede en sí misma / hacer un cielo del infierno, y un infierno del cielo". La frase sugiere que la realidad de nuestra experiencia está en nuestra conciencia. E incluso las delicias de los mundos superiores y las torturas de los mundos inferiores son autoinfligidas. El paraíso, más que un mundo ulterior, es una facultad de la percepción. El nirvana y el samsara no son del todo equivalentes al cielo y al infierno, pero de todas maneras la frase de Milton hace sentido dentro de la filosofía budista.

El samsara en realidad abarca desde los infiernos a los planos divinos sin forma donde los dioses viven en un trance extático que puede durar eones, pero que, sin embargo, no es el nirvana, no es la extinción del deseo y la liberación propia de la "budeidad". Todo lo que somos surge con nuestros pensamientos. Theory of The Acausal. Some Notes On The Theory of The Acausal In respect of the theory of the acausal, [1] the terms acausality and acausal refer to ‘acausal space and acausal time’.

That is, and in the context of this theory, both terms refer to a posited continuum different from the causal continuum of observed phenomena; which causal continuum has been described in terms of a four-dimensional space-time; and knowledge of and understanding about which causal continuum can be obtained by means of sciences such as physics, astronomy, and chemistry. Essentially, therefore, acausality – as part of such a formal theory – is an axiom, a logical assumption, not a belief. This axiom about the nature of the cosmos is one that derives not from the five Aristotelian essentials that determine the scientific method, but from the intuition of empathy [2] and from deductions relating to observations of living beings.

To return to acausal energy. David Myatt 2010 Notes Related: The Khabs is in the Khu. (This essay is also available in printed form, and you can also download the PDF.)
