The Art of Paul Kuczynski - mashKULTURE Take a look at some paintings by artist, Paul Kuczynski. More after the jump. Angel Messages: The Oracle of the Birds Buddhistisk meditation - vad kännetecknar den? Buddhistisk meditation är kanske den vanligaste meditationen som är direkt förknippad med religion. Vem har inte sett bilden av Buddha där han sitter i djup meditation? Detta sinnestillstånd kan vi alla uppnå med lite övning, vare sig vi är buddhister eller ej. Buddhistisk meditation går ut på att skilja kroppen från medvetandet och på så sätt nå upplysning. En viktig del av meditationen är att medvetandegöra andningen. Målet för buddhisten kallas Nibbana och är någonting som brukar ta flera år att uppnå genom meditation. Det finns två sorters buddhistisk meditation: Vipassana och Samatha. Samatha betyder rofylldhet och det är också detta tillstånd man ska uppnå genom meditationen.

While the men were in the "House of the Waters," attempting to make this drink, the first woman went into the forest to give birth. She came back with a boy radiating golden light, whose body she rubbed with leaves. This luminous boy-child was the vine, and each of the men cut off a piece of this living being that became his piece of the vine lineage. The Tukano Story - Description 2 - Dr. Once upon a time, a long, long time ago there lived among the Tukanoans a woman, the first woman of 'creation' who drowned men in visions. The first woman became pregnant by the sun-god who had impregnated her through the eye.
Mina bästa meditationsövningar Följande meditationsövningar kommer från Raja Yoga meditation.

Terry Border Makes Everyday Objects Come Alive (18 pics) Mail-Order Bride Artist Terry Border is one of those people who has a secret gift. He can take boring, everyday objects and make them come alive! In fact, his art can be appreciated for the clever thought behind it. What I love most about his work, though, is that it can be enjoyed by everyone. Today, I asked Terry where he gets his ideas. "Basically, I get ideas for photographs when everyday objects remind me of something else. "Then again, sometimes an idea just pops into my head.

Hermetica Contents Om shanti shanti shanti Bodhipaksa If you have a unicode font installed in your browser you’ll be able to see the mantra with diacritics here: Oṃ śānti śānti śānti. Om (Oṃ) Like many mantras, this one begins with "Om". In the Brahminical tradition, from where Buddhism undoubtedly obtained mantra practice, Om is not just the universal sound, but the sound of the universe itself. Om! Om is therefore a sound symbolizing reality. You could regard Om as being the equivalent of white light, in which all of the colors of the rainbow can be found. One Sanskrit-English dictionary says the following: "A word of solemn affirmation and respectful assent , sometimes translated by ‘yes, verily, so be it’ (and in this sense compared with Amen); it is placed at the commencement of most Hindu works, and as a sacred exclamation may be uttered at the beginning and end of a reading of the Vedas or previously to any prayer; it is also regarded as a particle of auspicious salutation [Hail!] Shanti (Śānti) Pronunciation notes: Which means:

The Healing Power of Sound and Overtone Chant | Sound Healing | Courses And Workshops | Sound Therapy | Voice Healing | Overtone Singing | Vocal Harmonics The Healing Power of Sound and Overtone Chant by Nestor Kornblum We are in constant vibration. Every molecule, cell, tissue, organ, gland, bone and liquid in our bodies has its own specific rate of vibration. Most illnesses begin in one of the subtle bodies. The "deep voice" chanting of the Tibetan monks and Mongolians, which only a few Westerners* have mastered, creates a second fundamental drone either in the pharynx or false vocal chords, which allows a second overtone to be amplified, a total of three or even four simultaneous sounds. Through the regular use of sound combined with intention we may begin to vibrate faster at a cellular or molecular level. Important points to remember: The healing of serious illnesses such as cancers and tumours may also be achieved with dedication.
Watercolor Masterpieces This is the first of its kind post on Designzzz. The reason this subject of watercolor paintings is selected because these paintings cannot carry as much detail as other routine oil or digital paintings. That is due to the fact that watercolours are not that sophisticated with gradients and swirls. What do you think about these kind of posts?

NEW MOON: SACRED REALITY « Critical Trilogy Pisces New Moon; March 14, 2010 5:01 PM It was quite a synchronicity to open Orca Chantress Beluga Shaman by Leesa Sklover, a Jungian practitioner and enchanting chanteuse whom I heard speak at the Temenos Institute in Westport on Friday night. She played the Orca Chantress kundalini yoga chant at the close of her presentation,”A Jungian Look at Yoga Therapy, Meditation and Chant.” The music hits at my highest and lowest chakras simultaneously. She certainly has the sacred geometry down! This afternoon, after nearly 48 hours of a power outage, which made the darkest moon last night I have had in a long while, I open the CD and discover a song, Beautiful All Around, containing the sacred geometry of the hieros gamos! It is the New Moon, after all, and the discovery brings to mind an alchemical image depicting the geometry of the six directions: The King (Sol) and Queen (Luna) united by the dove (spirit) This chant contains the YOD, the last letter of the Hebrew alphabet sky: yod hey vav
