  3. Sutra of the secret Essential Method of Dhyana

    Thanks Chang. I've glanced at the index and introduction and it looks fascinating. I've downloaded it to read properly on holiday. Namaste.

  5. What are you listening to?

    The Mission - Yo Yo Ma plays Ennio Morricone: - It's a nice accompaniment to gardening or watching a sunrise.

    I love this analogy. It's like aikido really, except that the surfer would never come to harm when faced by the poterntial tsunami of the Sensei. Although, more recent developments led to percussive elements (atemi) being reintroduced by Nishio Sensei (for reasons that deserve a separate thread), as a Master, he would not have employed such techniques against an "opponent". That would run entirely against the spirit of aikido. Only a beginner would strike an "opponent" because such actions harm only themselveves. Real aikido is non-duality dancing. It is also an extremely effective martial art that strives to leave the opponent intact.

  11. Misdirected Path

    Interesting discussion. I agree with dwai but I'm not familiar enough with Buddhist terminology to contribute much I'm afraid, so I'll just lurk and learn. However, I'd like to say that I don't like the emphasis on suffering - the Self (Atman) is always free of suffering.
