What Buddhists Believe - Is there an Eternal Soul? Belief in an eternal soul is a misconception of the human consciousness.
The Soul Theory With regard to the soul theory, there are three kinds of teachers in the world: - The first teacher teaches the existence of an eternal ego-entity that outlasts death: He is the eternalist. - The second teacher teaches a temporary ego-entity which becomes annihilated at death: He is the materialist. - The third teacher teaches neither an eternal nor a temporary ego-entity: He is the Buddha.
The Buddha teaches that what we call ego, self, soul, personality, etc., are merely conventional terms that do not refer to any real, independent entity. REALITY OF ORDER. Order And Its Essence Order is not just an attribute of existence, like redness or hardness or coldness.
Order is the stuff of existence. By "order" I do not mean anything esoteric or difficult to understand. I am using order as it is defined in the dictionary (quoting Webster's Unabridged:) "1. an authoritative direction or instruction; command; mandate....4. the disposition of things following one after another, as in space, time, etc....5. a condition in which each thing is properly disposed with reference to other things and to its purpose; methodical or harmonious arrangement....25. conformity or obedience to law or established authority....
" The Three Basic Facts of Existence: I. Impermanence (Anicca) If we contemplate even a minute sector of the vast range of life, we are faced with such a tremendous variety of life's manifestations that it defeats description.
And yet three basic statements can be made that are valid for all animate existence, from the microbe up to the creative mind of a human genius. These features common to all life were first found and formulated over 2500 years ago by the Buddha, who was rightly called "Knower of the Worlds" (loka-vidu). They are the Three Characteristics (ti-lakkha.na) of all that is conditioned, i.e., dependently arisen. In English renderings, they are also sometimes called Signs, Signata, or Marks.

Aleister Crowley's Eight Lectures on Yoga (Lecture 2/8) Remedios Varo. Remedios Varo Uranga (16 December 1908 – 8 October 1963) was a Spanish surrealist artist.
Born in Anglès (north of Catalonia), Spain in 1908, she studied at the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando, Madrid. Varo spent her formative years between France and Barcelona and was greatly influenced by the surrealist movement. While still married to her first husband Gerardo Lizarraga, Varo met her second partner, the French surrealist poet Benjamin Péret, in Barcelona. During the Spanish Civil War she fled to Paris with Péret leaving Lizarraga behind (1937). She was forced into exile from Paris during the German occupation of France and moved to Mexico City at the end of 1941 when the Mexican president, Lázaro Cardenas, made it a policy to welcome Spanish and European refugees.

The fact that psychedelic drugs induce a greater sensitivity to subtle spiritual and psychic energies, and speed up the influx of impressions from deeper levels of consciousness, raises the immediate question of how these energies can be properly understood and handled.
Obviously, if these energies are not guided, they can do more harm than good. Vipassana Meditation: Introduction. What is Vipassana Meditation?
Vipassana, which means to see things as they really are, is one of India's most ancient techniques of meditation. It was taught in India more than 2500 years ago as a universal remedy for universal ills, i.e., an Art of Living. For those who are not familiar with Vipassana Meditation, an Introduction to Vipassana by Mr. Goenka is available. How to learn it? Dhyāna in Buddhism. Dhyana is the awareness of the observer (witness) yet inclusive of mind, body, senses and surroundings, however not identified with it, deepening of which leads to samadhi.
The Sutta Pitaka describes four levels of dhyana, called jhana, each of increasing depth. The Jhanas are described many times in the Pāli canon, and a great deal of the post-canonical Theravāda Buddhist and Mahayana literature have been devoted to its elucidation. The Zen-tradition has been named after this meditative state, though in Chinese Buddhism dhyana may refer to all kind of meditation techniques and their preparatory practices which can be used to attain samadhi.

Talking History: The Phrygians and Greeks (Dan Attrell) Aleister Crowley's Eight Lectures on Yoga (Lecture 7/8) The Four Dharma Seals Define Buddhism. In the 26 centuries since the life of the Buddha, Buddhism has developed into diverse schools and sects. As Buddhism reached into new regions of Asia it often absorbed remnants of older regional religions. Many local "folk Buddhisms" sprang up that adopted the Buddha and the many iconic figures of Buddhist art and literature as gods, without regard to their original meaning. Sometimes new religions sprang up that were Buddhist in appearance but which retained little of the Buddha's teachings. On the other hand, sometimes new schools of Buddhism arose that approached the teachings in fresh and robust new ways, to the disapproval of traditionalists.
Questions arose -- what is it that distinguishes Buddhism as a distinctive religion? Aleister Crowley's Eight Lectures on Yoga (Lecture 8/8) Bohm Dialogue. Bohm Dialogue (also known as Bohmian Dialogue or "Dialogue in the Spirit of David Bohm") is a freely flowing group conversation in which participants attempt to reach a common understanding, experiencing everyone's point of view fully, equally and nonjudgmentally.[1] This can lead to new and deeper understanding. The purpose is to solve the communication crises that face society,[2] and indeed the whole of human nature and consciousness. It utilizes a theoretical understanding of the way thoughts relate to universal reality. It is named after physicist David Bohm who originally proposed this form of dialogue. Bohm's original dialogue[edit] Introduction to quantum mechanics. Many aspects of quantum mechanics are counterintuitive[3] and can seem paradoxical, because they describe behavior quite different from that seen at larger length scales.
In the words of quantum physicist Richard Feynman, quantum mechanics deals with "nature as She is – absurd".[4] For example, the uncertainty principle of quantum mechanics means that the more closely one pins down one measurement (such as the position of a particle), the less accurate another measurement pertaining to the same particle (such as its momentum) must become. ★ The Art Of Defensive Boxing. 15 Mesmerizing Mosque Ceilings That Appear To Be Influenced...

Few performers have been so consistently controversial as James Douglas Morrison, the vocalist and songwriter of the Doors. And none has caused so many writers to construct so much gothic imagery in an effort to describe the mystique. In the Village Voice, for instance, one chronicler said Morrison was the "first major male sex symbol since James Dean died and Marlon Brando got a paunch" and another called him at (different times) a "leather tiger," a "shaman-serpent king" and "America's Oedipal nightingale.
