Hypatia of Alexandria and the Seven Presocratics - Existential Comics Julián Marquina | Community Manager sector Información y Documentación What Is a Bodhisattva? A BODHISATTVA IS an ordinary person who takes up a course in his or her life that moves in the direction of buddha. You're a bodhisattva, I'm a bodhisattva; actually, anyone who directs their attention, their life, to practicing the way of life of a buddha is a bodhisattva. We read about Kannon Bosatsu (Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva) or Monju Bosatsu (Manjushri Bodhisattva), and these are great bodhisattvas, but we, too, have to have confidence or faith that we are also bodhisattvas. Most people live by their desires or karma. The life that flows through each of us and through everything around us is actually all connected. [I]t's not enough for a bodhisattva of the Mahayana to just uphold the precepts. It's not enough just to know the definition of bodhisattva. Regarding the question "What is a bodhisattva?"

The Sounds of Interstellar Space The Sounds of Interstellar Space Nov. 1, 2013: Scifi movies are sometimes criticized when explosions in the void make noise. As the old saying goes, “in space, no one can hear you scream.” Without air there is no sound. But if that’s true, what was space physicist Don Gurnett talking about when he stated at a NASA press conference in Sept. 2013 that he had heard "the sounds of interstellar space?" It turns out that space can make music … if you know how to listen. Gurnett is the James Van Allen professor of physics at the University of Iowa and the principal investigator for the Plasma Wave Science instrument on Voyager 1. The heliosphere is a vast bubble of magnetism that surrounds the sun and planets. For decades, researchers have been on the edge of their seats, waiting for the Voyager probes to leave. Gurnett recalls the thrill of discovery when some months-old data from the Plasma Wave Instrument reached his desk in the summer of 2013. Credits: Author: Dr. More information:
The Inner Forms the Outer - Parabola Photograph by Lee van Laer Human beings are peculiar creatures. We can think; and it sets us apart from other creatures, who can think some (consider the honeybee) but not much. Thinking, over the last 10,000 or so years (a rough estimate,) mankind has occupied himself, in the disciplines of science and philosophy, with the question of what, exactly, we are. This is, indeed, the question at the core of all the great traditions as well, which presume a spiritual — or inner — nature that forms the outer one. Lo and behold! The microorganisms that inhabit our gut, our skin, and more or less all the other parts of our body, are our partners in biology; and it turns out that they help form the way we think and behave. This has been true for hundreds of millions of years, as it happens; huge dinosaurs such as Apatosaurus (a.k.a. Think of it this way, if you will. I doubt it is that simple — but I also doubt that we are free of these concerns.
Colofón Revista Literaria Economics for Transition | Schumacher College Achieving Low-Carbon, High Well-Being, Resilient Economies (MA, PG Cert) Never has there been a more important time for a new approach to economics. There is an urgent need for a radical rethink of our economic system. We need new thinking and new models that recognise the challenges we face now, rather than blindly following the path that has led us into the converging crises we now face. These models will enable us to both mitigate the impacts and adapt to these inter-locking crises – including climate change, biodiversity loss, the peaking in fossil fuel energy supplies, financial instability, food security, poverty and so on. They will be built on an understanding of the complementarity of ecological protection and human flourishing. For 20 years, pioneering thinkers and practitioners have been developing alternative economic ideas, models and experiments that were once considered radical and marginal. Why Schumacher College? Our teachers include: Who is this course for? Where you will go?
