Dalai lama, non-violence, some thoughts

Posted in Tibet at 4:46 pm by nemo

The recent protests in Tibet, and the Dalai Lama’s response have been compelling, and somewhat disturbing, for more than one reason. Some voices are whispering that something is awry with the Dalai Lama’s tactics, here’s one: …crowns are now turning into thorns.
I don’t wish to offend anyone, nor do I endorse anyone suddenly changing his mind on this question (changing your mind is often a thoughtless act) of non-violence. Further I support non-violence myself, and did so as a conscious objector in the Vietnam war. Read the rest of this entry »

James reappears, fakirs, spiritual paths, and…the Dalai lama’s….

Posted in religion at 3:42 pm by nemo

James reappears

Thanks for your comment, I was worried, and also wary that someone might actually try my ‘meditation retreat’ suggestion, which was a bad one, since 1. I don’t do retreats (I am not a guru), and 2. I didn’t describe the situation referred to, which was far too severe to induce meditative states.

As to fakirs, much of the spirituality of Sufism was done among beggars, wanderers, and in situations modern surburbanites would find not to their liking (including jihadic battlefield situations of a harrowing nature). But then again difficult situations are often counterproductive to development, so who can say. I am not a sufi, nor do I have a ‘spiritual path’, so my remarks, actually, were misleading. But fakirs are fakirs, wanderers, homeless persons, and ‘idiots’ at the next to last stop.

If you can eat garbage and ride freightrains you can survive handily in a dynamic economy like the American. It can be tremendously relaxing to suddenly stand outside the economic system, outside of its pressure, it is a miniature enlightenment in itself to suddenly see your ‘robot motivator’ unhooked from the social machine.
But such liberations are brief, and there is no real ‘outside the system’, so courting the outsider’s existence is not, as such, the answer to anything. The hobo’s path tends to be downhill.
The classic buddhists, one should note, did court outsider status, and did so systematically, ritually, and quite practically, as a group exercise. Beggars bowls and world renunciation. In that form the outside path chugged uphill.
But it is better to never imitate anyone, so I will file away these autobiographical details.

Here’s a link to some photographs to the Dalai Lama’s residence: Dalai Lama’s excessively ritzy crash pad with a superficial spiritual decor.

I feel compassion for the Dalai Lama: he is the victim of events, and as a reborn boddhissattwa he starts life from scratch, like every other honest joe. Recovering the starting point you once achieved can be difficult, let alone advancing from that, and for a high lama, maybe impossible: caught up in politics. That’s the catch in Tibetan lama system, perhaps. How would I know? Just some thoughts, or worries at the Tibet disaster.

I say this because Tibetans are having a problem and they don’t seem to be able to proceed in a practical fashion towards resolving the Tibetan problem.

How Were The Egyptian Pyramids Built?
ScienceDaily (Mar. 29, 2008) — The Aztecs, Mayans and ancient Egyptians were three very different civilizations with one very large similarity: pyramids. However, of these three ancient cultures, the Egyptians set the standard for what most people recognize as classic pyramid design: massive monuments with a square base and four smooth-sided triangular sides, rising to a point. The Aztecs and Mayans built their pyramids with tiered steps and a flat top.

Tibet, the right and the left

Posted in 1848+, religion, The Axial Age at 6:41 pm by nemo

Tibet is caught in an acute difficulty, a theatre of rightist and leftist collision. The previous post cites a leftist expose routine, but its point is nonetheless essential to consider: Behind the anti-anti-China Olympics campaign. The left, witness the action of the Marxist cadres, a truly braindead faction of, yes, the bourgeoisie at its most sadistic, is clearly at a dead end, culturally if not politically.
But the real threat from the right springs from lamaism itself whose history is ambiguous, and almost unknown, and never properly told (almost impossible to do). Read the rest of this entry »

John Gray’s egregious errors

In an interview that appears on the website of the Edge Foundation (www.edge.org) under the title “The Evaporation of the Powerful Mystique of Religion”, he [Daniel Dennett] predicts that “in about 25 years almost all religions will have evolved into very different phenomena, so much so that in most quarters religion will no longer command the awe that it does today”. He is confident that this will come about, he tells us, mainly because of “the worldwide spread of information technology (not just the internet, but cell phones and portable radios and television)”.

It doesn’t require information technology to induce dirft in the world’s religions. And the influence of such technology in the environment of media hype (the advertising mode of deception) is likely to make them worse.

Darwinian wishful thinking

Posted in Evolution at 2:43 pm by nemo

Are evolutionists only wishful thinkers?
BILL WESTCOTT
Charles Darwin’s 1859 treatise, The Origin of Species by means of natural selection, is arguably the most controversial topic among educators, scientists, theologians, philosophers and those who study religion.
Strong views still rage on both sides of the argument.
In science, a theory is a rigorously tested statement of general principles that explains observable and recorded aspects of the world. A scientific theory therefore describes a higher level of understanding that ties facts together. It stands until proven wrong – it is never proven correct. Read the rest of this entry »

Richard Dawkins Gets “Conned” by Filmmakers
Ben Stein, noted author, game show host, and Clear Eyes spokesman, stars in a new documentary in which he argues that scientists who believe in so-called Intelligent Design have been systematically drummed out of academe. From the trailer, it appears to be a pretty slick production, with lots of fast-paced cuts and tracking shots, not to mention Stein’s trademark nasal whine.

Surprisingly, the anti-evolution filmmakers managed to get two prominent atheists – Richard Dawkins and PZ Myers – to sit for interviews. According to Dawkins, they were “conned” into participating. The author of The God Delusion calls the filmmakers “duplicitous” and their organization “a creationist front.”

Dawkins and Myers also crashed the premiere of the film earlier this month. Myers was thrown out; Dawkins got to stay and see the show. He gave it an opposable thumbs-down.

Before ’73 Coup, Chile Tried to Find the Right Software for Socialism

By ALEXEI BARRIONUEVO
Published: March 28, 2008
SANTIAGO, Chile — When military forces loyal to Gen. Augusto Pinochet staged a coup here in September 1973, they made a surprising discovery. Salvador Allende’s Socialist government had quietly embarked on a novel experiment to manage Chile’s economy using a clunky mainframe computer and a network of telex machines.
The project, called Cybersyn, was the brainchild of A. Stafford Beer, a visionary Briton who employed his “cybernetic” concepts to help Mr. Allende find an alternative to the planned economies of Cuba and the Soviet Union. After the coup it became the subject of intense military scrutiny.
