Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emperor Wu: " Which merits did I acquire by SO generously supporting the cause of Buddhism?" Bodhidharma: " None whatsoever, your Imperial Majesty." Emperor Wu: " What is considered by your reverence to be the first principle of the Holy Doctrine?" Bodhidharma: " Fast emptiness with nothing holy therein" Narayana: The Dharma of the Buddha, the Holy Doctrine, is like an empty space as fast as the Cosmos, with nothing whatsoever therein, but this nothing is not nothing. Maya and Lila are powers of Brahman. Brahman and Its powers are one. Therefore, and as all is the One, there is no essential difference between Brahman and Maya, Brahman and Lila, the Ocean of Wisdom and ignorance.

Download or read book The Dark Prophecy of nemesis written by Alfred Schmielewski and published by Greg Henry Waters Group. This book was released on 1996-11-13 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Vedic seers say: 'God is the creator of the universe.' Narayana: The cosmos is an eternal thought in the mind of Brahman. The cosmos is a living being and of mental nature. This mental life.form or being is immortal. It is one of the mental functions of Brahman. The Vedic seers say: 'God brings forth the universe by means of the Veda's.' Narayana: 'Although the cosmos expands and contracts like one breathing, it is forever. There never was a station, where the cosmos was not, nor shall it ever be that there is no cosmos. St. Thomas von Aquinas was in fatal error when he stated that Nothing contains a potential from whence something can be made by God. The everlasting cosmos cannot be brought forth by anything or anyone. For the cosmos is not separate from God, but a living function of the living God.'
Download or read book forthy transmission from the Patriarchs of Ch an written by Alfred Schmielewski and published by Greg Henry Waters Group. This book was released on with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION This is an in depth commentary on the forty Transmission Gathas of the Patriarchs of Ch’an by a Western Yogi. The author sets out to ascertain what is was that the ancient Indian and Chinese sages transmitted. He attempts to intuit and explain how it was done, and how the recipients of the transmission were prepared for the thunderbolt of sudden enlightenment. The scriptures state that what was transmitted was the Mind, or Mind-Dharma, but that this was no ordinary mind. It was pure Mind, Mind itself, stripped to the utmost nakedness or clearness. This mind was said to be the Buddha, or the Wisdom of SupremeEnlightenment. The Patriarch Bodhidharma says in his famous dialougue with Emperor Wu “ The Dharma is like an empty space, as vast as the cosmos, with nothing holy therein. “ (1) Although the author has a certain degree of learning in the scriptures and sacred texts of ancient India, China, Tibet, Persia, Greece, and Egypt, he is a practicing Yogi and by no means a scholar, or a Linguist. Most of his commentary is based on his inner experiences, which result from his practice of advanced Yoga, But not on academia or book learning. Narayana expounds in his commentary pure intuitions, arising from an innerrealization, attained by means of Yoga and by the grace of God. His commentary is in no capacity scholarly or linguistic analysis, nor is it an interpretation of theological axioms or religious dogma. (The Yogi never wants any of his work turned into religious dogma or a religion of any kind.)

Download or read book The Yogas tras of Pata jali on Concentration of Mind written by Fernando Tola and published by Motilal Banarsidass Publ.. This book was released on 1987 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Yogasutra is one of the most important works of Indian culture. The present book is an attempt of interpretation of the Yogasutras based on some special criteria adopted by the authros: (1) To use the traditional commentaries as auxiliaries, not as guides, with prudence and freedom, (2) To interpret those Sutras, in which Patanjali analyzes real phenomena, as what they actually are: descriptions of facts of experience. To such an end the authors have tried to have a clear idea of the phenomena to which Patanjali refers, and in this task they have found extremely useful the descriptions of their mystical experiences by Yogis of India and Christian mystics. The book includes the Sanskrit text of the Sutras and an English translation by the authors.
