Sukhā matteyyatā loke,
atho petteyyatā sukhā,
sukhā sāmaññatā loke,
atho brahmaññatā sukhā.
In this world, good it is to serve one’s mother,
good it is to serve one’s father,
good it is to serve the monks and nuns,
and good it is to serve the holy ones.

Selo yathā ekaghano vātena na samīrati,
evaṃ nindāpasaṃsāsu na samiñjanti paṇḍitā.
Just as a solid rock is not shaken by the storm,
even so the wise are not affected by praise or blame.

How real are you? What if everything you are, everything you know, all the people in your life as well as all the events were not physically there but just a very elaborate simulation? Philosopher Nick Bostrom famously considered this in his seminal paper “Are you living in a computer simulation?,” where he proposed that all of our existence may be just a product of very sophisticated computer simulations ran by advanced beings whose real nature we may never be able to know. Now a new theory has come along that takes it a step further – what if there are no advanced beings either and everything in “reality” is a self-simulation that generates itself from pure thought?

“You are an eternal being now on the pathway of endless unfoldment, never less but always more yourself. Life is not static. It is forever dynamic, forever creating – not something done and finished, but something alive, awake and aware. There is something within you that sings the song of eternity. Listen to it.”– Ernest Holmes
Candanaṃ, tagaraṃ, vāpi uppalaṃ, atha vassikī —

Of all the fragrances —
sandal, tagara, blue lotus and jasmine —
the fragrance of virtue is the sweetest.

Here’s my version of a classic Carbonara, VEGANISED. My vegan carbonara is so simple to make and works perfectly with dried or fresh pasta. If making homemade vegan pasta, use fine semolina for more of a bite to your pasta. I just used kamut flour as its all I had. Tag me in pics if you make my vegan carbonara.
Today we’re approaching the idea of Planetary Hours of the Day, how they work, why they’re so complicated and why they might or might not matter to your specific ritual.
Jayaṃ ve maññati bālo
vācāya pharusaṃ bhaṇaṃ,
jayañcevassa taṃ hoti
yā titikkhā vijānato.
The fool thinks one has won a battle
when one bullies with harsh speech,
but knowing how to be forbearing
alone makes one victorious.

The baby reading powers of dolphins …
Dolphins emit sound waves and listen to the echo to make sense of their environment. Experts say that it possible that a dolphin may be able to detect the difference in the echo of woman before and during pregnancy. Doctors too use detection devices that use high pitched pulses of sounds to detect the presence of the fetus, Livescience reported.
What knowledge lies in our ancient past? A team of renowned scholars has come together to go beyond the surface-level myths, artifacts, and mysteries found in ancient texts and lost cities from around the world. Journey to decipher the code scattered throughout ancient civilizations.
When the seeker becomes fully aware that every person about him is a mirror for himself, there is in that realization a feeling of “too much information.” Shall the seeker take, in complete sincerity, every word that is spoken to him and every interaction with another person as being information about himself? If so, the information stacks up exponentially as the years go by. Yet, it is true that the spiritual seeker is in a hall of mirrors. Each mirror is distorted, yet gives some information.
How does one look at one’s self? The eyes look outward. They do not see inward. It is impossible to see yourself as others see you. Consequently, it is very helpful to enter into the game, shall we say, of taking each person as a mirror for yourself, and musing upon what that mirror is telling you.
