Yathāpi mūle anupaddave daḷhe,
chinnopi rukkho punareva rūhati,
evampi taṇhānusaye anūhate,
nibbattatī dukkhamidaṃ punappunaṃ.
Just as a tree, though cut down,
sprouts up again if its roots remain uncut and firm,
even so, until the craving that lies dormant is rooted out,
suffering springs up again and again.

1.- Introduction
Marcus Vitruvius Pollio, Roman architect (c. 25 B.C.), remarked a similarity between the human body and a perfect building: “Nature has designed the human body so that its members are duly proportioned to the frame as a whole.” He inscribed the human body into a circle and a square, the two figures considered images of perfection. It is widely accepted that the proportions in the human body follow the Golden Ratio. In this article we will review some studies on the subject. We will show the nineteenth century findings of the Golden Ratio in the human body by Adolf Seizing, actually approximated by a Fibonacci sequence of measures. Then we will examine the Golden proportions of the human body proposed by architects Erns Neufert and Le Corbusier in the twentieth century. Finally we will show how a common study with a german and an indian population samples confirmed the presence of the Golden Ratio in some proportions of the human body. …
Back to the same heartspace as last Saturday: When making choices today take a long-term, heart-centered perspective. Put the feelings and well being of yourself and your loved ones first. A choice made purely from logic, that goes against what feels good or right, is not the right choice today. Ask yourself if your head and heart are united. If you have a decision to make now, tune in to your heart’s desire, but also pay attention to logic. If you are acting out of love, you are on the right path. Often in life we must make choices, and once we choose one path, another is sacrificed. Take responsibility and ownership for theh choices you have made. Celebrate the love you have in all its forms: passion, friendship, caring, spiritual devotion and self-love.
Have you considered that an illness or emotional issue may be the result of an energetic overload? It is no secret that human consciousness and the consciousness of the planet are going through monumental shifts, and many of these shifts are a result of an influx of a higher vibration energy. There are many things that you can do in order to align your body to higher frequency energies and integrate the increased energy flow. …

The Halau has a tradition of issuing hanko to its senior Reiki Grandmasters. But, what are hanko? If you’ve ever received an official certification of practitioner rank from our school, you will see these red seals affixed at the bottom of the document.
Small, circular or square seals dipped in red ink are used instead of a signature on many documents in Japan, ranging from simple delivery slips to official forms such as bank applications and marriage registrations.

Uṭṭhānako analaso,

Who is energetic and not indolent,
In misfortune unshaken,
Flawless in manner and intelligent,
Such a one to honour may attain.

The man who conquers another by force is strong; the man who conquers himself by Meekness is mighty. He who conquers another by force will himself likewise be conquered; he who conquers himself by Meekness will never be overthrown, for the human cannot overcome the divine. The meek man is triumphant in defeat. Socrates lives the more by being put to death; in the crucified Jesus the risen Christ is revealed; and Stephen, in receiving his stoning, defies the hurting power of stones. That which is real cannot be destroyed, but only that which is unreal. When a man finds that within him which is real, which is constant, abiding, changeless, and eternal, he enters into that Reality, and becomes meek. All the powers of darkness will come against him, but they will do him no hurt, and will at last depart from him.

Whatever you are currently working on, today, take a step back to look at our long-term vision. There is a good energy today for practical planning. Use it to make sure you are setting the right priorities and approaching your project in the best way. Don’t be afraid to seek advice from a more experienced person; not only is asking for help not shameful, it’s smart. The intentions you have sent into the Universe are beginning to come to fruition.
