The Mandala Offering
A screen magically materlises in front of you, It's a holographic-"picture" of the whole universe including (zoom) Mother Earth. It's a complete, real representation of the World, showing in real tyme the world's dynamic's. It then proceeds to project this image which completely surrounds your "field." of vision. A scroll unfolds in the "corner" of your vision.(Creation) Headed Navigation. All six classes of beings are listed & visable, including us, & the interactions-vibrations betwixt us all and our effects on this blue sphere that is H(om)E.

A cornerstone Mantra to help all sentient beings in all realms, The Jewel in the Lotus.
[(See colour codes)]
The Diamond in the Lotus, like the gems sparkling on the sea.
OM MANI PADME HUM
The six clas of beings are : Gods, Jealous Gods, Humans, Animals, Ghosts and Hungry Ghosts, and beings who have unfortunately taken birth in an impermanent "hell". These beings have taken birth due to the karma of believing in a permanent "self."
FAITH.
Faith the basis of the path. Dispelling the net of doubt.
listening to the wind from the "idiot box's." (Sound), Sound&Vision) Ask Cosmos to run a accuracy test on the sounds.

Cats purr in appreciation of a fireside, Dogs Listen and smeal the scene, Elphants play funky jazz talking of peace deals. Dolphins jump for fun. Whales sing along on bass, Camels plan and navigate interstellar space travel. The World is your Oyster says a passing Octopus.

########The Other Station########
A gentle voice crackles from the tannoy system in the ///// Station. So distant & gentle. Looking Outside, looking Within takes one to a Secret place, allowing ones senses to tune into the "info-message." Moving your hearing true the soundscape as you would your eyes, from back to front, front to back & until... somewhere in the middle one's ears tune into. I guess thats why they built Cathedrals to allow the sound and senses to be connnected to the "divine".

"Halo & Good Vibrations& Joy to all travellors, all streams of consciousnesses travelling today on the universal real network! To travel to you desired destinations please use the "Ley-Lines" & the public transportational systems provided.
The train to the city of Peace and Joy will shortly be arriving @ Platform One,The Other Station.
Thank you for travelling with in-out-other.
Universal Rail Network's, Ink."
[waiting in the station]
"We shall cease from exploration and the end of our exploring. Will be to arrive where we started & know the place for the first time!" T.S.Eliot shouts and smiles across from the another platform in the station. "You been busy then", I shout back. "Always my boy, always" is his reply.

Coleridge mumbles something from his opium laced visions whilst sprawled across the only public seat for miles on this very long platform, in this ere station. The smelly selfish amazing git. Pictures come to mind, stuff about mariners & albatrosses, Kubla Khan and being derailed by a postmen from portley mid trip....
"have you got your visa?"
_______________________________
To read and string words together without a picture forming, just reading words is infurating. Some books, sentences, open real or imagined doors to "other" worlds in an instant, where others dont seem unlock the door that. One wonders why? We all have our own favourite styles etc and If the message comes from the heart from experience. When words come to life, become real I feel its of some kinda real significance.
Something special from within & beyond ourselves, a kinda destiny. I love to see-share-recieve visions, reasonings, teachings, storys like that. I guess this could be thought of, in one context or in many, as the multiverse?

Holding a image to mind, as real as looking a it with ones own naked eye, of the moon freed from the clouds in clear sky..

Indra's Jeweled Web
~#~
"In the Heaven of Indra, there is said to be a network of pearls stretching off into infinite space, so arranged that if you look at one you see all the others reflected in it. In the same way each object in the world is not merely itself but involves every other object and in fact is everything else."Tu-Shun (557-640 B.C.E.)

One manifestation in the conventional realm of this magical structure is found just above the Internet.

~#~
Knowledge, divine wisdom, teachings (Dharma) are passed from Teacher to Student, Culture to Culture, Luminary to Luminary using this timeless web. The insights are understood in a moment, Just as water is poured from one vessel to another, pearl to pearl.Similar to the learning programs on the film the Matrix. An endless cosmic ballet. The empowerments are free from ego a pure undisturbed bond, (vidya-diro). A sign of complete universal love and equality.
~#~
In Each atom of the realms of the universe. There exists vast oceans of world systems. The Great Flower Ornament, an ancient Buddhist scripture.


Our lifeforce, our chi, our consciousness is the water and our bodys are the Jars, the vessels that hold this elixer of life. We are all basically the same, no real differences, as Humans we all wish for the same kinda things . In this regard we should look at ourselves as just one entity.
(The DharmaKaya, Body of Being)
An inscription on the side of a font in St Peters Church in the parish of Newlyn, Penzance, Cornwall, UK. Reads. "Be of the spirit of the water of life." The Church is built on a "ley-line" which is marked by an older pagan Stone which stands outside of the church. Many temples/churches etc around the globe are built on such "energy-lines." On a inner level we all give out a magnetic vibe and we got temples on the sides of our heads. hence halo icongraphy. (I am shutting up know)

"Enlightenment, for a wave in the ocean, is the moment the wave realises it is water." Thich Nhat Hanh.

The universe is said to be the container and we are said to be the contained, Upon realising that we are the water which makes the river & the oceans, and choose to enter the stream, Sotapanna. begining the process of liberation, and reaching the other shore, Nibbāna, ending the cycle of rebirth, realising our consciousness is the water which are bodies carry.

The cycle or birth-death-rebirth is like being a raindrop in six billion raindrops falling to earth. (rebirth) Flowing from the source down the river, over waterfalls through ravines (teenage years:), afew white water rapids through (mid-life) hopefully mellowing as we flow across the delta's and finaly reaching the the river mouth again & join the ocean (maturing) to then live on through (old age) We then evaporate into the skys, (death) & lifted up by the sol-sun. At this point in the cycle we can either choose to end "samsara." the cycle of rebirth & Walk place ourselves on the other shore of nibanna, so it is said... Or join the clouds to fall as rain once more. (rebirth) Over & & Over, Lifetime after Lifetime (intentional or unintentional)

~#~
If you think of the amount of lives we have lived , if we were to pile all of our old bodies up, the pile of skeletons for each of us would probably be as high as Mount Everest!
_______________________________
Buddhist systems, as all the systems of thought, are guiding means, they are not absolute truths but are like rafts which can lead to ultimate reality and also providing a moral way to practice living ones life (chi-sem), upon crossing the river the raft should be discarded, without losing the lessons or the friends gained upon the voyage.

The Nyingma school of Tibetan Buddhism traces its origin to the Indian adept, Guru Padmasambhava, who came to Tibet in 817 C.E. at the invitation of King Trisong Deutsan (742-797) in order to subdue the evil forces then impeding the spread of Buddhism. Guru Rinpochey, as he is popularly known, bound all evil spirits by oath and transformed them into forces compatible with the spread of Buddhism. aka (Awakening)

Guru Rinpochey also gave widespread teachings from the highest classes of tantra and in particular to his twenty-five principal disciples. These first Tibetan adepts are renowned for their spiritual accomplishments, for example, Namkhe Nyingpo for his feat of travelling on beams of light, Khandro Yeshe Tsogyal for reviving the dead, Vairochana for his intuition, Nanam Yeshe for soaring in the sky, Kawa Peltseg for reading others thought and Jnana Kumara for his miraculous powers.

Oracles & Kutens
In the Tibetan tradition, the word Oracle is used for a spirit which enters those men and women who act as mediums between the natural and the spiritual realms. The mediums are, therefore, known as kuten, which literally means, "the physical basis."
~#~
Oracle "TV"
"Listen up" to the Tibetan Nechung Oracle. Talking on humanity and planet earth. What did you reason? Part translated by Robert Thurman.
In early times it is believed that there were hundreds of oracles throughout Tibet. Today, only a few survive, including those consulted by the Tibetan government. Of these, the principal one is the Nechung oracle. Through him manifests Dorje Drak-den (Nechung), the principal protector divinity of the Tibetan government and the Dalai Lama, read about the dalai lamas experience with Nechung.

The Peace within inner-stillness, Disarming oneself, letting go of our our own negativity, our own agression.

"We are so many people at the same time."
Sogyal Rinpoche so profoundly states. "In one moment, in one breath we can be this angry person, negative and in the next we can be somebody quite wonderful. Choosing to be the chilled one, the wonderful being. Its a Choice, becoming real, becoming genuine, stripping away all that is unnatural, the natural striptease. Becoming free of our selves."

We appear to be always moving but underneath this appearance there is something that is always still, always blissfull. (Prajana) These words may appear to change but really nothing has changed, all is and always has been still.
--------------------------------------------------------
The DharmaKaya Buddha essence often personified as Mahavairocana, resided in the Arupadhatu or formless realm. Emanating from the Dharmakaya is the second Realm of Forms, in which reside numerous Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, plus celestial musicians and attendants. This second state or condition of the Buddha is called the Sambhogakaya. The Buddha in charge of this world system is Amitabha, The Buddha of Infinite Life and Light, who has established a Western Paradise, in which those who die with deep faith in their aum saving grace ,are reborn to wake up in a land of bliss, where suffering is unknown and all circumstances and conditions are conducive to the gaining of Enlightenment.

While the celestial Buddhas and their attendants dwell in the realm of forms or Rupadhatu, there is also the earthly or Kamadhatu realm of passions, desire and suffering. Here periodically a third body of the Buddha is born. It is called the Nirmanakaya Body of Transformation. The Nirmanakaya Buddha of our own period of world history was, of course, Sakyamuni Buddha, and while considered mortal and human in every respect by the early Buddhists and present day Theravadans, he is considered by those who subscribe to the Pure Land teachings as an apparition of Amitabha on eart

Dalai Lama quotes from Words of Wisdom

Posted by Slug on 16 July 2008 at 5:11am — 1 Comment

Guides ~#~ The Bodhicaryavatara ~#~ The Way Of The Bodhisattva ~#~ by Shantideva. Try to Imagine life in the Monastry in Nalenda 1500yrs ago, India. Then imagine offerings etc and invoke the teachings and teachers right here, right now! One love.

Praise to the Awakening Mind

1: In adoration I make obesiance to the Sugatas their children & to their bodies of Dharma, and to all those worthy of praise. In brief, and in accordance with scripture, one shall describe the undertaking of the observance of the sons & daughters of the Sugatas.

2: Nothing new will be said here, nor have I any skilI in compostion. Therefore I do not imagine that I can benifit others. I have done this to perfume my own mind.

5: At night in darkness thick with clouds a lightning flash gives a moment's brightness. So, sometime, by the power of the Buddha, the mind of the world might for a moment turn to acts of merit.

9: When the Awakening Mind has arisen in one, a wretch captive in the prison of existence, One is straightway hailed daughter or son of the Sugatas to be revered in the worlds of gods and humanity.

10:Taking this base image, it transmutes it into the priceless image of the Buddha-gem. Grasp tightly the quicksilver elixer, known as the Awakening Mind, which must be worked completly.

11: You who are accustomed to travelling abroad among the trading towns of the realms of rebirth, grasp tightly this gem that is the Awakening Mind. It is precious, assayed by those of immeasurable expertise, the unique caraven-leaders of the world.

12: Like the apple trees in blossom, the roses in bloom. Or Like the Plantain stem, all good things assuredly shed their fruit & wither, whereas the Awakening Mind is a tree that constantly fruits. It does not wither, but continues to produce.

14:Like the the holocaust at the end of a world age, it completely consumes great evil in an instant. The wise Lord Maitreya related its unmeasured praises to Sudhana.

15:The Awakened Mind should be understood to be of two kinds; in brief: the Mind resolved on Awakening, (Closed Lotus flower) & the Mind proceeding toward Awakening.(Fully opened Lotus Flower.)

18: For the moment that one takes on that Mind to release the limitless realms of beings, with a resolve that cannot be turned back.

19: From that moment on, though one may doze off or become distracted many times, uninterrupted streams of merit like the bursting sky continuously pour forth.

36: I bow down to the bodies of those in whom the excellent jewel, the Mind has arisen, & torward whom even an offence results in happiness.. To those mines of happiness, I go for refuge.

Confession of Faults ~#~ At least every full-moon.

18: To those formed of goodwill I also offer those shining clouds that are celestial palaces, ornamented at the entrances in the four directions, splendid with pendulous ropes of pearls and precious stones, entrancing with songs & poems & of praise.

19: Now, for the sages, I set up splendid, bejewelled umbreIIas, encrusted with pearls, fully raised on beautifully formed shafts of gold.

20: Hereafter, may heady clouds of worship arise, & clouds of instrumental music, thrilling every being.

21: May flowers and jewels & other offerings rain down incencantly upon the caityas, images and all the jewels which make up the Dharma.

23: I praise the Oceans of Virtue with hymns that are a sea of notesand harmonies. Let clouds of chanted praise arise no diferently among them.

25 : Likewise, I pay homage to all the shrines and resting places of the Bodhisattva. I prostrate to the preceptors and to the praiseworthy adepts as well.

58 : I stand with exceeding care even on an ordinary cliff. How much so above a precipice of a thousand leagues through great expanses of time?

59: Death may not come this very day, but my complacency is ill-founded. Inevitable the time approaches when I shall die.

66: Let the Leaders accept my transgression for what it is. It is not good. O Protectors. I must not do it again.

Adopting The Awakening Mind

16: Those who falsely accuse me, and others who will do me harm , and others still who will degrade me, may they all share in Awakening.

27: "As a blind man might find a jewel in heaps of rubbish, so too this Awakening Mind has somehow appeared in me.

30: "The causeway to cross over bad rebirths, open to all who travel. it is the rising moon of the mind, mitagating the defilements of the world.

31: "It is the brillant sun, dispelling the mist of ignorance from the world. It is the fresh butter risen up from churning the milk of the true Dharma.

Mindfulness

1: Those who wish to protect their practice should zealously guard the mind. The practice cannot be protected without guarding the unsteady mind.

2 : Untamed, mad elephants do not inflict as much harm in this world as does the unleashed elephant of the mind in the Avichi Hell and the like.

3 : But if the elephant of the mind is completely restrained by the rope of mindfulness, then all perils vanish and complete well-being is obtained.

4 : Tigers, lions, elephants, bears, snakes, all enemies, all guardians of hells

5 : Dakinis (evil spirits) and demons become controlled by controlling the mind alone. By subduing the mind alone, they all become subdued.

13 : Where would there be leather enough to cover the entire world? The earth is covered over merely with the leather of my sandals.

16. The omniscient One stated that all recitations and austerities, even through performed for a long time, are actually useless if the mind is on something else or dull.

70 :Consider the body as a ship because it is the basis of coming and going. Set the body in motion at your will in order to accomplish the welfare of sentient beings.

71. One who has become self-controlled in that way should always have a smiling face. One should give up frowning and grimacing, be the first to greet, and be a friend to the world.

101 : One should do nothing other than benefit sentient beings either directly or indirectly; and for the sake of sentient beings alone, one should subordinate everything to Awakening.

109 : I shall practice it with my body. What is the use of merely reading the words? Will a sick person have any benefit merely by reading about medical treatments?

Dedication

9: Let the rain of burning coals, heated rocks, and daggers from this day forth be a shower of flowers; and let the warring with these weapons, one against the other, now be merely playful - A tussle with flowers.

19: May the blind see forms, may the deaf always hear, and may expectant mothers give birth as did Mayadevi, free from pain.

23: May every region be hospitable to all those who travel the roads. With whatever aim they set out, may their plan succeed.

24 : May those who journey by boat succeed, as they desire. May they safely reach the shore and rejoice with their relatives.

33: May all beings have immeasurable life. May they always live happily. May the very word "death" perish.

34: May every quarter become a place of delight with gardens of magical trees that grant every wish, teeming with Buddhas and the heirs of the Buddhas, enthralling with the sound of the Dharma.

35: May the ground in every place be as smooth and level like the palm of the hand, free from grit and stones, and made of beryl.

36: May the circles of the great assembly of Bodhisattvas be seated all around. May they emblazon the surface of the earth each with their own radiant hue.

37: Let embodied beings hear, unwearied, the sound of the Dharma from winged birds, from every tree, from light rays and from the skys.

55: As long as space abidesand as long as the world abides, so long may I abide, destroying the sufferings of the world

For a Full version of this most sacred treasure please go to shantideva.net look within and seek-request teaching from Manjusri.
Santideva flourished and flourishes, gaining recognition around 685-763 CE in Nalanda. CE =Christ's Enlightenment.

INSIGHT from His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama.

What science finds to be nonexistent, we must accept as nonexcistent, but what science merely does not find is a completly different matter. ... It is quite clear that there are many, many, mysterious things.

Guilt, as experienced in Western culture, is connected with hopelessness and discouragement and is past -oriented. Genuine remorse, however, is a healthy state of mind-it is future oriented, connected with hope, and causes us to act, to change.

Emptiness should be understood in the context of dependent arising and it should invoke a sense of fullness, of things created by causes and conditions. We shouldn't think that self is something that is originally there and then eliminated in meditation; in fact, it is something that never existed in the first place.

A Brief Intro to Buddhism. @ Cultural Resources, Chinese Language Program.

Spinning threads of silk.

IMAGINE
[(Day [or] Night)]
A simple room filled with only a roll for a bed and a spinning wheel. A gentle breeze blows through the latticed window which fills the whole of one of the longer walls, of this rectangular shaped room. Through the latticework a rather Indian compound can be seen, birds are singing out in the trees. The sound of peacocks calling can be heard. People are sitting and talking underneath in the shade. You can hear the soothing sound of a fountain & children playing.
You are alone in this almost empty room, but then a kind friend, a monk, brings in a cup of Chi (tea) you share a smile & thank him and he then departs.. Aum Mani Padme Hum.

You sit down by the spinning wheel which is facing the intricatly carved lattice window. You drink the lovely tea and then start to spin. Your foot pushing the tread your foot tapping a blissful slow rythem.

A Meeting space... Between the Conventional & Ultimate Truth.

INSIGHT from Mahatma Gandhi

"I want all the cultures of all lands to be blown about my house as freely as possible. But I refuse to be swept off my feet by any!"

"Civil disobedience becomes a sacred duty when the state has become lawless or corrupt. And a citizen who barters with such a state shares in its corruption and lawlessness. Every citizen is responsible for every act of his government. Non-cooperation with evil is as much a duty as cooperation with good."
