http://occultandbeyond.blogspot.com/2009/02/three-wheels-of-law.html

Three Wheels of Law. 160;Tuesday, February 3, 2009. At a place called Mrigadavana (Deer Park) near Varanasi, Shakyamuni Buddha turned the First wheel of Law which constituted the doctrines of the Four Noble Truths and Eightfold Path and it is designated as Shravakayana. At Vaisali, on the other hand, the Buddha turned the Third Wheel of Law which constituted the doctrines of Buddha-nature as described in Tathagatagarbhasutra, Mahaparinirvanasutra and Dharanisvararaja sutra.

Not Big News: January 2010

http://notbignews.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html

Millions follow, why don't you? Sunday, January 17, 2010. Inside the Well of Sickness. Some time after Ashton Kutchner climbed. To the top of the tweets, I sunk into an abyss which ordinary people might have ordinarily but mistakenly very well said sickness but I refused to be tagged as sick. While trying to find a name proper to adequately describe my situation, time flew by. I hereby send a warm thank you. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Say No to Mediocracy. First I was afraid, I was petrified.

Occult and Beyond: January 2009

http://occultandbeyond.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html

The White Virgin of Alchemy. 160;Saturday, January 24, 2009. Once alchemists overcame the issue of dissolving gold, they eliminated troublesome compounds of nitrogen with antimony. The ancients derived antimony from a variety of sources, which they called Prima Materia. Two popular starting points for the Egyptians were the minerals of lead oxide called galena, and tin dioxide called cassiterite. This mercury should not be confused with metallic mercury, which is always poisonous if used alchemically.

The Elements of Shamanism | Occult and Beyond

http://occultandbeyond.blogspot.com/2009/01/elements-of-shamanism.html

The Elements of Shamanism. 160;Sunday, January 18, 2009. Although other societies sometimes have elements of shamanism, we confine our definition to hunter-gatherers and propose ten characteristics of shamanism as it is practised in such societies; elements of shamanism may well appear in other kinds of society, but it is not of them that we speak. Of necessity, they are institutionalized, that is, they have social consequences. Visual, aural and somatic experiences of altered states that are wired.

Elixir of Youth | Occult and Beyond

http://occultandbeyond.blogspot.com/2009/01/elixir-of-youth.html

160;Saturday, January 24, 2009. Alchemy using dissolved elements is simple and effective. It differs from the Great Work because it starts with water already containing the necessary elements. Traditional alchemists would consider it the lightweight end of the Art. The Great Work focused on the reverse direction, converting metallic gold into the Philosophers’ Stone. Dissolving metallic gold was no easy matter. Alchemists needed a Secret Fire. Nitric acid is amongst the most dangerous of substances to wo...

Astral Projection or Out of Body Experience. 160;Sunday, December 28, 2008. Astral projection is defined as an experience in which we live in an altered state of consciousness as opposed to our normal waking state of consciousness. Maybe the closest experience we can relate to it is dreaming. Although some scholars disagree, astral projection is also called:. Our consciousness transcends our physical body. Each of us is an immortal soul who has temporarily incarnated into the physical world. A buddhic bo...

Not Big News: Thousand-Hand Guan Yin

http://notbignews.blogspot.com/2009/04/thousand-hand-guan-yin.html

Millions follow, why don't you? Friday, April 17, 2009. I have watched various versions of the Thousand-Hand Guan Yin, the Bodhisattva of Compassion but none has touched me like this one by China Disabled People's Performing Art Troupe. All of its performers are deaf. The last thing that these dancers deserve is the word disabled in their titles. Short URL for this post. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Say No to Mediocracy.
