All is mind, mind is all: Yogachara

(SEEKER TO SEEKER) How the mind creates reality | Buddhism

Nagarjuna advocates "Middle Way"

Yogachara (Sanskrit Yogācāra) is an influential tradition of Buddhist philosophy and psychology emphasizing the study of cognition, perception, and consciousness through the interior lens of meditation and philosophical reasoning (hetuvidyā) [1, 2].

Yogachara was one of the two most influential traditions in Mahayana Buddhism in India, along with Madhyamaka [3].

The compound Yogā-cāra literally means "practice of yoga" or "one whose practice is yoga." Hence, the name of the school is literally "the School of the Yogins" [4, 3].

Shanta Rakshita (Khenchen Bodisatva)

Yogācāra was also variously termed Vijñānavāda (the Consciousness Doctrine), Vijñaptivāda (the Ideas or Perceptions Doctrine), or Vijñaptimātratā-vāda (the "Mere Representation" Doctrine), which is also the name given to its major theory of mind that seeks to deconstruct how we perceive the world.

There are several interpretations of this main theory, which include various forms of idealism as well as phenomenology or representationalism.

Aside from this, Yogācāra also developed an elaborate analysis of consciousness (vijñāna) and mental phenomena (dharmas, "things"), as well as an extensive system of Buddhist spiritual practice, namely, yoga [1],

Tibetan thangka of Dolpopa

The movement has been traced to the first centuries of the common era and seems to have evolved as some yogis of the Sarvāstivāda and Sautrāntika traditions in North India adopted Mahayana Buddhism [5, 6].

The brothers Asaṅga and Vasubandhu (circa 4-5th century) are considered the classic philosophers and systematizers of this school, while it is also traditionally attributed by Buddhist believers to the figure of Maitreya-nātha [7].

Yogācāra was later imported to Tibet and East Asia by figures like Shantaraksita (8th century) and Xuanzang (7th century).

Today, Yogācāra ideas and texts continue to be influential subjects of study for Tibetan Vajrayana Buddhism and East Asian Buddhism. More

'Dementia Don' Trump's serious decline

This is what proves Trump’s dementia: Psychologist | The Daily Beast Podcast

(The Daily Beast) Sept. 20, 2025: The Daily Beast Podcast. Dr. John Gartner, former Johns Hopkins professor and co-host of the podcast Shrinking Trump, joins the Daily Beast’s Joanna Coles to deliver a chilling diagnosis: Pres. Donald Trump is showing signs of dementia layered on top of malignant narcissism.

Drawing on decades of clinical expertise, Dr. Gartner explains how Trump’s

• declining language,
• erratic gait, and
• disturbing anecdotes

Trump was too busy that day being forgetful

point to brain deterioration that makes him not just unpredictable but uniquely dangerous in office.

Coles presses the doctor on how Trump’s narcissism compares to King Charles’ public persona, whether his cabinet and family are retreating from his volatility, and what it means when a leader with nuclear codes also displays symptoms of mini-strokes and confabulation.

From Hitler’s psychology to Bill Clinton’s benign narcissism, this episode explores how power amplifies paranoia, cruelty, and decay—and asks the starkest question of all:

As Trump weakens physically and mentally while tightening his grip on authority, how far can Trumpism go before it breaks America?

Science: C-19 vaxx kills 74% of sudden deaths

Vaxxed, Plandemic (bitchute.com)

The Lancet, one of the world's more respected peer-reviewed medical science journals is censored, with popular article pulled from a rigorous study and review of many other cases. They show that 74 per cent of sudden deaths can be attributed to the Covid-19 vaccine, a killer experiment foisted on all of us, rushed by an "emergency authorization act" that means no one is allowed to sue the Big Pharma corporations who made, sold, and profited from these pharmacological (pharmakos = allopathic sorcery) poisons.

Begin Again

For many of us, September is about new beginnings: Kids off to school or college and summer ending and work or other commitments kicking into gear. It's an auspicious time to begin again.

What is so comforting about our mindfulness practice is that every moment presents an opportunity to begin again.

In meditation, when we find ourselves -- having drifted off our object -- lost in thought, obsessing about our job worries, woes, or replaying that TV show endlessly, we can always start again.

The moment of realization that we are lost in thought is a moment of mindfulness. When we recognize it, we begin again, returning to our breath -- full of great kindness and renewed effort, free of self-judgment or scolding.

Beginning again is simply part of the meditative process. Similarly, when our hard-won daily meditation practice gets lax, when we're rushing about, overly busy, with no time to meditate, we might realize we've "fallen off the wagon." But we have a simple, non-judgmental remedy: Begin again.

Recommit to a regular practice, and start that very day. Or set the bar lower. How about just four days a week for 10 minutes? And when we've practiced for a long time but somehow life intervenes and we haven't meditated for years, why not practice this way? Begin again.

Or when we've said something we regret to another human being, our child or other family member, a coworker or stranger, repair it and begin again.

Beginning again, with great (because that's how much it takes) kindness and self-forgiveness, is one of the joyful gifts of mindfulness.

Join UCLA's MARC (Mindful Awareness Research Center) classes and events to help support this process of beginning again.

This year-long program provides training, support, and supervision to those wishing to incorporate mindfulness into their occupation or to share mindfulness with individuals, groups, communities, or institutions. The program consists of four Live Online practicums with a potential In-Person at UCLA option*, each 4-5 days, and additional meetings by phone or online. Successful completion of this program provides a document of completion as a Trained Mindfulness Facilitator (TMF) from the UCLA Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior.   *In 2023, the TMF will be Live Online where we will meet via Zoom. Additionally, depending on the pandemic, we may offer a simultaneous In-Person at UCLA option. This hybrid program would allow you to participate either live online or in-person at UCLA. We will clarify if the hybrid is being offered when you receive your acceptance letter.   Participants will choose how they wish to participate with each practicum, depending on what MARC will make available. The program will be responsive to the Covid-19 pandemic. For further information, please read Information about the Practicum Format. Application Deadline: Sunday, October 23, 2022 (11:59PM PST) Admissions Notifications: Tuesday, November 29, 2022 For More Information & to Apply The Short Course in Mindful Self-Compassion (SC- MSC) with Gael Belden The Short Course in Mindful Self-Compassion (SC-MSC) is a 6-week adaptation of the empirically-supported 8-week Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) program designed to begin the cultivation of the skills of self-compassion. SC-MSC was developed by Kristin Neff, PhD, the pioneering researcher in the field of self-compassion and Christopher Germer, PhD, a leader in the integration of mindfulness, compassion and psychotherapy.  Most of us feel compassion for our close friends when they are struggling. What would it be like to receive the same caring attention from yourself when you needed it most? All that’s required is a shift in attention—recognizing that as a human being, you, too, are a worthy recipient of compassion. Self-compassion involves the capacity to comfort and soothe ourselves, and to motivate ourselves with encouragement, when we suffer, fail, or feel inadequate. Self-compassion is learned in part by connecting with our innate compassion for others and including ourselves in that circle of compassion. The practice of self-compassion also helps to grow and sustain our compassion for others. This program is designed for members of the general public, based on the values of equity, diversity, inclusiveness and belonging. Meditation experience is not necessary to participate in SC-MSC. All are welcome! Dates: Tuesdays, Sept 6-Oct 11 Time: 5:00 PM- 6:30 PM, PT Cost: $0-$200 For More Information & to Register MAPs Applications: Mindfulness for Adult ADHD Part 3 Resolving Distraction and Procrastination Living with an ADHD brain in a neurotypical system can be debilitating. But with proper mindfulness training one can live a fulfilling and successful life. In this class, we explore distraction and procrastination, which can cause much agony and disappointment in life. We will learn that there are benefits to distraction and procrastination and ways to develop attention and focus to be strategic and purposeful in life. To strengthen and balance the ADHD brain, we learn about the three capacities in attention and the six faculties of focus. Attendees can evaluate how much development they have in each area and what aspects to develop.

There are many variations on how to do loving-kindness meditations. We can practice it in a way which cultivates concentration. We can use it on the spot or within meditation to work with challenging emotions. It can also be a practice which, similarly to mindfulness, can cultivate insight. Finally, it can be practiced as a facet of awareness itself. Through lecture, meditations, dialogue, and guided exercises, we will deepen our understanding and embodiment of loving-kindness. Dates: Thurdays, Sept 8-Oct 20 No Class September 15 Time: 10:00 AM- 12:00 Noon, PT Cost: $0-$200 For More Information & to Register The Next Stage in the Clinical Applications of Mindfulness: The Four Foundations of Mindfulness with Lobsang Rapgay, PhD Unlike early applications of mindfulness which primarily focus on the breath and body, the four foundations encompass the entire human experience beginning with the body, then sensations and feelings, to positive and negative emotions and thoughts, and finally, the analytical processing of their origins, elimination, and prevention.  The first three foundations deal with the stripping of all projective meaning of human experiences so that the practitioner can experience them as they are.  Having learned to experience things as they are, the last foundation then analyzes the habitual way of biased experiencing, their origins, maintenance factors, and how to eliminate and prevent their recurrence. The four-week workshop will present the clinical application of the four foundations in the context of anxiety disorders.  The workshop is of relevance and benefit to therapists who are deeply committed to the clinical use of mindfulness and to those who wish to understand the four foundations from a psychological perspective. Dates: Thurdays, Sept 8-29 Time: 4:00 PM- 5:00 PM, PT Cost: $0-$125   For More Information & to Register MAPs III: Reconciling Paradox with Mindfulness with Brian Shiers The deep practice of mindfulness is filled with instructions and claims that often seem paradoxical: Make the ‘effortless effort’. In order to change, accept things as they are. Mindfulness is a form of self-observation. Except, there is no self. Sound confusing? In this six-week course, we will explore these and many other ideas that often seem to be at odds with logic, and our life experience. Through explorations of poetry, science, short readings, and an in-depth look at Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, students will gain meaning and revelation while leaving plenty of space for guided practice and group discussion. Dates: Saturdays, Sept 17-Oct 22 Time: 9:00 AM- 11:00 AM, PT Cost: $0-$200 For More Information & to Register Day of Mindfulness: Energy, Calm, Ease, and Well-Being-- Practicing Mindfulness at Home with Marvin G. Belzer, PhD   The basics of mindfulness meditation are at the core of a mindfulness practice. Our homes offer special opportunities for mindfulness practice both in meditation and in our daily activities. In this daylong we will meditate; and also we playfully will bring more awareness into our current lives at home: the spaces we occupy; how we check the news; in our relationships; how we eat; and in play. This daylong is suitable for both beginners and experienced meditators. Dates: Saturday, Sept 24 Time: 10:00 AM- 4:00 PM, PT Cost: $0-$75 For More Information & to Register Day of Mindfulness: Luminous Darkness: Mindfulness Practices for Navigating the Unknown with Deborah Eden Tull Join Deborah Eden Tull for a deeply restorative, experiential day-long retreat exploring mindfulness practices that take us into our bodies, beyond the realm of concepts, in order to see more clearly from the heart. The symbolic darkness of our times can be a great teacher for cultivating the qualities of curiosity, receptivity, and attunement required to navigate the unknown from presence and compassion. One of the gifts of global uncertainty is that it requires us to recognize and let go of unconscious biases that have been passed down for generations. These include the perception that splits into opposites and values light over dark, speed over slowing down, productivity over attunement, opinion over curiosity, and expression over receptivity. Awakening requires that we soften the habit of binary perception and restore our natural capacity to perceive clearly with the heart. This retreat involves meditation and mindful inquiry, relational mindfulness, guided imagery, and Q&A. This retreat celebrates Deborah Eden Tull's newest book, Luminous Darkness: An Engaged Buddhist Approach to Embracing the Unknown (Shambhala 2022). All are welcome! Dates: Saturday, Oct 15 Time: 10:00 AM- 3:00 PM, PT Cost: $0-$75 For More Information & to Register
