We were at Emo Night Los Angeles hosted by the Atlanta Masquerade to learn how to find a Goth girlfriend, I mean, romantic partner and significant other. This is a down and bad tutorial.
Study proves we were all born evil: The Third Wave Experiment explained
(The Eniqma) Feb 16, 2022: This video is about the Third Wave Experiment explained from the beginning and how the experimenter, Ron Jones, came up with the idea of conducting a social science experiment by making up a movement called "The Third Wave" in his classroom. What's interesting about the experiment is how it sheds light on fascism, particularly how it shatters the false view that the Nazis were just "monsters" because of how they treated their victims, when in reality, they were ordinary people. We would likely do the same even as we tell ourselves that's impossible. Dr. Phil Zimbardo's Stanford Prison Experiment showed the same thing as did that teacher's blue eye/brown eye classroom demonstration. Humans are born with the potential for great good but also evil. It's not only one way or the other.
(MSNBC) Leave it to American business to twist a 5,000-year-old Hindu tradition into an emotional knot. In a matter of weeks, a steamy sex scandal has prompted the resignation of a world-class yoga "superstar," roiled the discipline’s trendiest branch, sparked a mass exodus…
John Friend's "Anusara Yoga" in Tantric twisted sex scandal Wisdom Quarterly Leave it to an American finance major to humiliate a millenia-old Vedic philosophy of spiritual excellence through eight limbs centering on a still hub bringing the mind into profoundly absorbed states of heightened consciousness (samadhi) with one limb concentrating on the body, asana (the poses) strengthening the physical base.
The John (silver fox standing at center) developed a softer, gentler yoga focusing on alignment and being less about traditional instructions. He was moving away from strenuous exercise into developing an open heart. Where the heart goes, the body often follows.
His students, many of them Jewish espousing a Buddhified Tantric Hindu philosophy, congregate around Los Angeles studios like Mission Street Yoga in South Pasadena and around many teachers trained personally by Friend in his new style.
Yogi Times Magazine often covered Anusara teachers and studios and worked closely with the founder of Mission Street Yoga. The goal was clearly making money more than spreading enlightenment or even samadhi. So a sex scandal seems minor by comparison. But what will John Friend's students say now?
It looks like another mission for Dev, our fearless street reporter. More to follow.
Full moon day in June, Poson. Sri Lankan Buddhist temple, Pasadena. On a quest for an epiphany, a Zen Satori. We gathered round, dressed in white. End to end, knee to knee, back to back, four of us -- Ashley, Pat, me, and Seven.
I could feel breaths expanding and sinking slowly. Soon we were in rhythm. Slower and more slowly. The islanders marveled. What were Americans doing her chanting in an ancient Buddhist language with them?
The night before, the city was alive with Afro-Funk music at Levitt Pavilion, Memorial Park Metro station. Within walking distance of the temple. And the sidewalk chalk festival was in full bloom. Blissed out, long haired, wearing linen as if we had just been pulled in from San Francisco.
Seven said it was as easy as breathing. All seven of us are Seven so we all agree. But Ashley explained that it's even easier than that. The nun Ayya Susila confirmed it:
"It's impossible, it cannot be that anyone now interested in meditation did not practice in a past life."
If it were not for that past habit, that past practice, they would not now -- in these sour times -- take up so lofty an aspiration. So it's as easy as remembering without thinking, but remembering in the body instead. O, it went like this. This feels right. I just let go, just breathe, just believe.
Maybe it is as easy as dropping doubt, trust and confidence that the Buddha knew and said what he knew. Practice is the highest form of veneration in Buddhism.
Can a guy be too nice? Can a guy (or anyone) be too nice? No. Can he be too nice for some girls? Definitely! Some men can get stuck with the "just friends" label if they come across a certain way.
