The Buddhic Mind



Yassa nittiṇṇo paṅko,
Maddito kāmakaṇṭako,
Mohakkhayaṃ anuppatto
Sukhadukkhesu na vedhatī sa bhikkhū.
That bhikkhu who has crossed the mire,
Crushed the thorn of sensual desire,
And reached the destruction of delusion
Is not perturbed by pleasures and pains.
Udāna 3.22
The Udāna and the Itivuttaka, trans. John D. Ireland

Under today’s Scorpio Moon, you may be looking at your past and seeking the truth of it all. Scorpio demands nothing less, and while this card tends to be more reminiscent of fond memories, Mercury is, after all, retrograde. This has been a tough Mercury retrograde for many of you, and the Moon, together with a conjunction which will be occurring between Mercury and Neptune tomorrow, combine to give you a more accurate view of how your past and your future need to differ.
When we see the 6 of Cups, it conjures up childhood memories, and harkens back to more innocent times. Being a Saturday, this is the perfect day to get together with an old acquaintance, and talk about times gone by in your local coffee shop. For more on what I have to say about today, and days to come, check out my video below.
See you…

Tañca kammaṃ kataṃ sādhu,
yaṃ katvā nānutappati,
yassa patīto sumano,
vipākaṃ paṭisevati.
Well done is that action of doing
which one repents not later,
and the fruit of which,
one reaps with delight and happiness.

All aboard! Typically, we see a boat guided by a shrouded figure, with its passengers simply sitting, as if along for the ride. Now look at this beautiful 6 of Swords image from the Children of Litha Tarot. Butterflies signal transition, and currently you are in the cocoon stage, riding as a passenger, in search of smoother waters.
Today, the Moon continues in Libra for everyone, fueling the desire to bring balance and fairness to life and relationships. It will be void-of-course for eight hours before moving into Scorpio. There will also be today, a conjunction between the Sun and Chiron, highlighting an area of your life which needs healing. I am concerned for some that when the hesitant energy of the Libra Moon turns void, a depression which is often associated with this card may envelop you. It truly does not have to be that way…first, remind yourself that…

The Root Chakra is the lowest Chakra and as such is the foundation of all of the other Chakras. Its Sanskrit name is Muladhara, Mula meaning ‘Root’ and adhara meaning ‘Support’. This Chakra is also refered to as the Base Centre, the Tail Chakra, the root centre or the as the first Chakra. Ancient Hindu depictions show the root Chakra as a four petaled flower. These four petals correspond to the four Sanskrit syllables: Vam, am, sham and sam. The primary mantra that is used to activate this chakra is LAM (pronounced LANG). The Root Chakra is associated with the Hindu deities Brahma and Dakini. The Red colour of the root…

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
March 21 – 3.21 is the first day of our year on the natural cycle.
Today marks the first day that all natural life springs into action, beginning a new cycle of life over the next 12 months.
The first day of SPRING is like the first hour of SUNRISE on a microcosmic scale…
The first day of SUMMER is like the first hour at MIDDAY….
The first day of FALL/AUTUMN is like the first hour of SUNSET…
The first day of WINTER is like the first hour at MIDNIGHT…
Everything is a microcosm of a macrocosm…
Everything in the natural world is perfectly balanced & synchronised.
We do not need to follow the spelling dates of manmade calnders to tell us when, what or how things are…
All we need to do is observe & tune into the natural cycle & order of nature itself.



#SolitudeHeals
It is in the quiet times that we build our strengths and know we have something to rely on.
Solitude is not withdrawal into a place where no one and no sound can penetrate.
It is a sweet moment of peace with or without other people that lets us re-center and reset the rhythm of the mind, body and spirit.
It is wisdom to stay close to the solitude of nature to keep us young and pliable.
~Joyce Sequichie Hifler~

Yāvajīvampi ce bālo, paṇḍitaṃ payirupāsati,

one no more comprehends the Truth
than a spoon tastes the flavor of the soup.

Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV), one of the most distressing chemotherapy-related adverse events (AEs), affects about 75% of patients undergoing chemotherapy. Antiemetic drugs are considered first-line treatments, while cannabinoids are considered an option to be used if other antiemetics fail. The cannabinoids used for CINV include tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and analogs of THC. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the first synthetic cannabinoid as a prescription drug for the treatment of CINV in 1986. [Note: Dronabinol, synthetic THC (Marinol) was approved in 1986, not 1985 as the text states, as a schedule II drug. In 1999, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) transferred it from schedule II to schedule III. Non-synthetic THC (i.e., the kind in the plant) remains a DEA schedule I drug (no medical use).] In this overview, the authors summarize evidence from and critique the quality of published systematic reviews (SRs) of cannabinoids in CINV.

Spiritual evolution is a mystic adventure – the adventure of raising consciousness. In this adventure, there is no chance or fortune because spiritual evolution is dynamic. It is in the existential flow and transcends fate. In short, to evolve spiritually is to overcome destiny and rewrite the future.
In the process of spiritual evolution, opposites based on the polarity principle become united. Through spiritual evolution, the clash of the opposites ends and the individual goes beyond the polarity principle. Because of this transcendence, internal conflicts come to an end and the individual attains peace.
Through the spiritual evolution, the individual turns towards beauty and escapes from the ugliness. Negativity is the reality of earthly life, but in the process of the spiritual evolution, everything negative starts to turn into positive because there is no place for negativity in absolute existence.
A person’s negativity can hinder his spiritual evolution. Because of the negative tendencies, the individual may deviate from the spiritual evolutionary path. This kind of deviation causes conflicts, pain, uneasiness, and chaos. The individual falls from the spiritually evolving cosmos to the chaos of decline.
The reason for the decline is the freedom to disobey the principles of the universe. When the individual abuses the absolute freedom that he has, he rebels against universal law and starts to decline. The only way to get rid of this declining is to evolve.
To choose the path of spiritual evolution, the individual has to taste the pains of downfall, because the one who does not know the pain of decline will not be able to know the value of spiritual evolution. Also, the one who does not know the decline cannot understand what spiritual evolving is. For that reason, only the ones who hit the floor of the decline will know the worth of the spiritual evolution.
– Paramahansa Yogananda

Uṭṭhānenappamādena,
saṃyamena damena ca,
dīpaṃ kayirātha medhāvī
yaṃ ogho nābhikīrati.
By effort and heedfulness,
discipline and self-mastery,
let the wise one make for oneself
an island which no flood can overwhelm.
Dhammapada 2.25
The Dhammapada: The Buddha’s Path of Wisdom, translated from Pāli by Acharya Buddharakkhita

Happy New Year and Full Moon blessings! Today marks a huge day of shifting energy on the calendar, as the astrological year gets underway at the time of the Vernal Equinox, with the Sun’s ingress to Aries, followed a few hours later by the first of two Libra Full Moons, this one being a Supermoon and at 0°. So what are your plans for the coming year?
The 3 of Pentacles is a great card to kick off the New Year, providing the perfect timing for tweaking your game plan. Do remember that Mercury is retrograde, so results today are not the goal. Over the next twelve months, you will have the opportunity to restructure and repair your life, more to your liking, giving it more than just slapping on a fresh coat of paint. This card allows you to assemble a team, one which can work within the blueprints…
