In this this episode, recorded in March 2023 for the Deconstructing Yourself podcast hosted by Michael Taft, we look at the similarities and differences between Tantrik Shaivism, Tantrik Buddhism, and Vedanta. Alongside Michael - spiritual teacher, bestselling author of "The Mindful Geek" and co-founder of The Alembic in Berkeley - we debunk a few myths and misconceptions about these spiritual paths. The discussion then leads us to some of the most unique and key teachings of non-dual tantra, such as the concepts of 'fullness of emptiness' and beneficial possession, comparing them to other prevalent spiritual philosophies from India.

In the spirit of part of the talk, wrote some rhymes: Abhinavagupta and Gotama Went for a walk Had a talk Came up with a book and thats the one that i bought 'You wanna f the ineffable, find it in skylines & vegetables, pentrate both word & the pencil, all human electables' Later Laughing at lunch with Longchenpa When this girl walks up says 'who you are?' We laughed some more, 'can you see far?' Past the castles in the clouds & shooting stars? ...whats a wave? WATER, whats the rain? WATER, whats the ice? WATER '& what water?' WATER (...) why i aughta, if delusion flows like liquor your thirstin makes you sicker While wealth, youth, & life slides away like oil slickers If the true nemesis is attachment & blemishes one's quite the warrior facing evolutions animus So gotta laugh & stomp, Timbos on the toes when i put the greens Alan Hovhannes in one shimmers from my screen Inner Alchemy honey pours from top to spleen & turn the lamp around illuminate whats seen Time to change lakes for oceans Expand (and release) all narrow notions, let go! to inherit the inherent glow The inherent vice is this flesh soon cold as ice, soon sashimi sliced, soon grave at night, so just how soon till Drg Drsya Viveka flight! 😆😉

🙏❤Wonderful, many thanks! Wondering about the possibility of an interview with Zvi Ish-Shalom, and I'm thinking of his book "Sleep, Death, and Rebirth: Mystical Practices of Lurianic Kabbalah", described as a "brilliant comparison of Jewish mystical understandings with those of far eastern religions, noting parallels between Vajrayana teachings of Tibetan Buddhism tantric of the Bon School, Hindu Tantric tradition of Kashmiri Shaivism and Muktananda’s lineage of the Hindu tantra, and Lurianic Kabbalah in terms of the relationship between, sleeping, dreaming, and the journey beyond the waystation of 'death.' These similarities, while not coterminous, may point to common mystical insights that arose across cultures and wisdom streams. The text encourages one to consider the possibility that certain dimensions of human mystical experience share a common core archetype (Jung) across traditions, cultures, and religions." (David B. Levy)

One of the nāmas from the Lalitā Sahasranāma that’s been going around in my head a lot lately is : « campakāshoka punnāga saugandhika lasatkacā », which I take to mean that Devī gives everything its distinct fragrance. Beyond the apparent multiplicity of the manifest, the underlying reality is one. As you say, no object has inherent qualities. Samarasa.

I wonder if Guru Rinpoche as a mahayanist knew Tantric techniques from hanging out with Shavists and integrating them into the Bön in Tibet resulting in Vajrayana?

@maunashakti4905 3 месяца назад

Any chance to hear you guys speak on SPANDA?
