Bodhi Day December 8th

How To Celebrate Bodhi Day




by Alden Smith

In the world of Buddhism, an important day of celebration is December 8th. This is the day that many Buddhists celebrate Bodhi Day. It was on this day in 596 BC that the Buddha attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree. Buddhism has the ability to adapt to any culture where it becomes a presence. It picks up the customs and bits of the culture around it. The Buddha expounded that we should, as Buddhists, fit into the neighborhood in which we live,… Continue

Karma yoga in Madurai...FEEDING THE DESTITUTE

I found this article and it really touched my heart. If we open our eyes we can do so much for other people....
I am sure this article gives a great inspiration.
In the Ashram where I live - here in Penukonda South- India - is also a lot of charity running.
Some friends of mine also created a Trust in India to help the needy children in Bangalore, a bigger city just 3 hours away from Penukonda.

Feeding The Destitute

Here is a brief description and technique of this taoist meditation

It s been ten years since Mom died.
She died while picking roses in the garden on June the 24th...La St Jean Babtiste in Quebec where she lived. It must have been a hot day and I can imagine she was wearing a broad rim hat to protect herself...but June can be so hot and her heart just couldn*t bear another breath....
another breath...another tear...another prayer...for June 24th was a special day for Mom. She had lost her son Mark... 40 years ago on that very day.....and surely she must have bee… Continue

Light into Darkness

This article is from the book An Instrument of Thy Peace.

Light into the Darkness
By

Sri Swami Chidananda
Introduction
Mankind痴 Actual State

Introduction
Yoga is an ancient and unique system of unfoldment of the personality at all levels. However, especially in the West, people are only accustomed to doing yoga in order to derive some health benefits. Ninety-nine per cent of the people who practise yoga do it merely as a physical exercise. Steadiness of body can calm the mind, and for this re… Continue

Dear soul sister and soul friend Maryse, Thank you very much for your beautiful comments. Please read the following and express your understanding .
With love romance , kisses and hugs,
The investigation of DNA has shown, by the almost unbelievable
complexity of the arrangements which are needed to produce life ,
intelligence has been involved.
A single consciousness, a universal wisdom pervades the universe. The
discoveries of science, those that search the quantum nature of
subatomic matter , have moved us to the brink of a startling
realization ; the transformation of quart matter to energy and
energy to matter bonded seamless by the gluon , has moved us to the
brink of a startling realization; all existence is the expression of
this wisdom. In the laboratories we experience it as information that
first physically articulated as energy and then condensed in the form
of matter , the transformation of quart (matter) to energy and
energy to matter bonded seamless by the gluon – at times 95% of quart
gets transformed to energy leaving, as per Einstein’s Theory of
Relativity : E = mc2, and we find only 5% as quart and vice versa
.Every particle, every being , from atom to human , appears to
represent a level of information, of wisdom.
The Bengali word ‘manush’ for ‘man’ means the combination of ‘man’ and
‘hu(n)sh’, ‘man’ means ‘dignity’ and ‘hu(n)sh’ means ‘consciousness’.
Man means dignity and consciousness.
The ultimate Reality is pure unchanging Consciousness called Shiva and
its power, appearing as the flux of mind and matter in creation is
known as Shakti – the Cosmic Power or Principal Primordial Energy .
Shiva is pure being., devoid of all relativity. Shakti is the active
Personal Being and includes all individual souls , living and
nonliving. Shiva, when he is united with Shakti, Purush with Prakiti
, is able to create; otherwise he is unable to move. Shiva is prakasa,
light and Shakti is vimarsa , reflection , is the power latent in
the Absolute , the Pure Consciousness. Shakti is the Absolute
personified , Consciousness that becomes a subject and also passes
over into its opposite , the non – self or the object . Shiva is cit,
Consciousness , Shakti is citi-sakti, the formative energy of
consciousness. In the perfect experience of ananda , Bliss , Shiva
and Shakti are indistinguishable; the two coalesce into one Being.
Shiva is indeterminate Brahman in a state of quiescence; Shakti is
Determinate Brahman – endowed with iccha,
will, jnana, knowledge, and kriya, action – that projects the whole
objective universe. Shiva and Shakti are one, since power is inherent
in existence , matter and energy being one and the same. But though
they are identical, there is an apparent difference them from the
phenomenal standpoint. Shiva as Brahman in its transcendental aspect
does not change ,but as Shakti, it does. This Shakti or Primordial
Energy goes forth in a series of emanations .
We visualize the “Dance of Shiva and Shakti ”, Purush and Prakiti ,
everywhere in the conjugal Blissful Dance of Eternal Love and Romance,
kissing and hugging and merging into one state to another., from
‘quark’ to ‘energy’ (light) and ‘energy’ to ‘quark’ with gluon as
Eternal Love and Romance.
Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam,
So Aham Brahmam,
Aham Brahmasmi,
Om Tat Sat.
