MANIFESTATIONS OF CHANGE WITHIN

The French writer, Montaigne, rightly noted, “The most manifest sign of wisdom is continued cheerfulness.” Intelligent analysis would confer true wisdom, enabling the seeker to make the needed changes within. Nevertheless, unless this evolution enables him to issue forth all he does in a healthy and... Sign in to see full entry.

LAUGHTER, THE SPIRITUAL MEDICINE!

When was the last time you had a really good laugh? Most of us have forgotten how to laugh. Our laughter is only an extended smile, a social necessity. We are usually laughing at someone, or simply fulfilling a duty. And laughter has been replaced by giggles and sniggers. In an office, the boss... Sign in to see full entry.

PRIMAL CAUSATION

(Bhaskar's post today "Heirophany - A Scientific Model of God" has triggered another stream of thought) There was an experiment conducted to determine the response of the human brain. This experiment consisted of three detectors. The experiment was to measure the time delay be an event and hoe the... Sign in to see full entry.

F(G) - A Mathematical model of God

Deep meaning reverberates in Troosha's poem today. A line in the poem needs to be answered "Is vibrational alignment achievable?". Recently I read an article titled "The God of Abraham, A Mathematician's view" by Stan Tenen, Director of Research Meru Foundation. It fundamentally states that as God... Sign in to see full entry.

TRUE BLESSINGS OF CHANGE WITHIN

(This post is inspired by the Cherooke story that Bhaskar posted yesterday. This post is also apt for all our Christian blogit community as we are in the Season of Lent) Change within does bring about changes all over. The sceptical mind may, however, question how this change, which is limited to... Sign in to see full entry.

HOW SCIENCE GETS IT WRONG SOMETIMES

Science does grant that a lot of things our great people have said in the past hold true even now and will probably do so for a long time to come. Nevertheless, science also maintains that a lot of other things these people said must be evaluated in the context of the times they were spoken in.... Sign in to see full entry.

TALKING STONES

Yesterday I posted part of the poem in response to Bhaskar's post. Since there has been requests for the whole poem I am doing this post. The sculpture you saw is one of thousands in the temple of Belur in Karnataka state in India, This was built by the Hoysala dynasty. They say that this temple... Sign in to see full entry.

Sensuous and Spiritual

(Bhaskar's observation "A true poet is he whose emotions connect together his ideas both sensuous and spiritual.") When I visited the Belur temple, where you can see this beautiful statue, it started to rain and the emotions that came forth I wrote down as verse. Part of this fairly long poem I...

ONE CAN BE UNHAPPY WHILE BEING GOOD

The Tibetan Buddhist teacher Dudjom Rinpoche narrates the story of a fearsome bandit from India, who, after a lifetime devoted to looting and pillaging, began to repent for all the terrible suffering he had been causing. He began to yearn for atonement, for some way of absolving himself from what he... Sign in to see full entry.

PRACTICAL WISDOM OF SRI RAMAKRISHNA PARAMAHAMSA

(Inspired by Bhaska's story of Girish and the Master) Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa was a great Indian mystic in the 19th century and the wisdom of his simple yet profound teaching was a result of living a very spiritual life of deep synthesis. The following are a very few examples of his sayings: God... Sign in to see full entry.
