Yoga in India - A Look at Its History Posted: 09 Jan 2012 12:00 PM PST by Augusto Mia Battaglia photography Article by Soni Sajjan Many people around the world have heard about and practiced yoga, but very few know the exact meaning of yoga.What is Yoga? Yoga is a system of exercises that is practiced as a part of Hindu discipline to enhance the control of the body and the mind. Yoga is just not mastering the techniques and increasing the flexibility and strength of your body, as it is often wrongly assumed. The History Behind Yoga The exact history and origin about yoga is uncertain, but there are some pieces of evidences that suggest that yoga originating in ancient India, with an aim to attain spiritual discipline and tranquility. People link yoga with postures and positions which forms the physical part of yoga, but this practice involves many other aspects. It has evolved and changed over time. The one who practices yoga with a sense of deep commitment is called yogi or a yogini. The aim of yoga varies and the scope involves improving one's health to achieving peace, liberation from suffering. Many seals discovered at the sites of ancient civilization, dating back to the third millennium B.C., show figures or drawings resembling meditation poses. Many scholars and archaeologists have described similarities between the yogic and meditation postures shown in the seals with the Tirthankaras. This shows Jainism's contribution to yoga. Yogic Traditions The tradition of yoga in India has been handed over from a teacher to a student individually through oral teaching and practical presentation. The techniques that are known are experiences of various persons over many centuries. The manner in which yoga is taught depends on the approach handed over through the teachers.Yoga is described as methods of meditation with the goal of attaining oneness with self. These are explained elaborately in texts of Buddhism which are probably one of first texts explaining the meditation postures and techniques. In Hindu philosophy, yoga is the one of the six orthodox philosophical schools. Evi! dence of yoga can also be found in the Rig Veda, and the ultimate aim of yoga is self-enlightenment. The yogic exercises are created to put pressure on the glandular systems of the body, which in turn increases the entire health of the body. Yogic students improve their breathing control over time to improve the function and health of their body and mind. The regular practice of yoga brings about a clear mind with a strong body.

Clearing Your Life for a New Year Posted: 09 Jan 2012 12:00 PM PST Post written by Leo Babauta. Every January, people rush out and get a gym membership, set a list of goals or resolutions, and get ready to take on a new year of frenetic activity. Unfortunately, we don't often clear space to make room for all this new stuff. The beginning of the year is a great time for renewal of energy and taking on the things we've always wanted to tackle — clutter, fitness, work we're passionate about, debt, and so on. But it's also a great time to clear out your life, starting out the year on a blank page that's ready to be filled. While everyone's life is different, I'll share some of what I do to clear out my life. Review the year to think about what I learned, what mistakes I made, what I accomplished. Clear my schedule as much as possible. That often means saying no to people. Wrap up old projects, end commitments to people, so that my work plate is clearer than normal. Toss out old fitness and eating plans, to make room for new experiments. Clear my email inbox. If I haven't answered the email recently, it's probably not important, so I archive it. Act on or answer other emails, so that my inbox is emptied. Clear out other inboxes. That might be an inbox on a social network, or a list of things I wanted to do or read, or any kind of list really. File them away under someday, or delete or archive. Anything that's taking some mental energy because I know I need to get to it, gets cleared. Clear my computer files. Usually this means deleting a bunch of files I don't need, but I also just consolidate files into one folder or put them in an online archive (like in Dropbox). Clear clutter. If there are areas that have become cluttered, I clear them out. Often it just means taking a box or bag of things that I've been meaning to donate to Goodwill. Clear my errands. I'll make a list of all the errands I've been putting off, and do them in one afternoon. Clear my finances. I'll take a few minutes to review my checking and savings accounts, Paypal, investments, etc. and make sure everything is in order. If there are little things that need taking care of, I do them so that my mind is cleared. Clear pantry and refrigerator of junk. Old crap that's been lying around. Junk food if there's any there (I don't usually have any anymore, but I used to). Left with just good whole ingredients for healthy foods. This might take a couple days, working off and on in little bits. For some, it might take longer. But when you're done, it's amazing. Your mind is clear and refreshed. You feel like you're ready to take on anything. To be honest, I do these things regularly throughout the year, and it's great to keep a clean slate most of the time. But the new year is always a perfect opportunity to clear everything at once. Read More @ Source

Trance And The Power Of Subconscious Mind Power Posted: 09 Jan 2012 11:00 AM PST by mindfulness Article by Louis Bacurre The movie Field of Dreams had the phrase 'If you build it, they will come'. When it comes to the power of your subconscious mind, it's 'If you think it, it will happen.' Asking yourself what does the future hold is simple to answer: Whatever you want it to. If you can imagine it by using your subconscious mind you can make it happen. Your subconscious mind power can completely change your life and give you whatever life you dream of. Unbelievable though it sounds, this is basically how your inner mind works and even though you may not know what is coming next, if you believe it will be good then it will be. What it comes down to is if you can use the power that comes from the subconscious mind, you'll be able to control your own destiny. Sceptical, probably, allow me to give you a few examples of subconscious mind power at work. One of my favorite examples to give is scientific, medically actually. This example is offered because the results have been documented time and time again. It is the Placebo Effect. This shows that about 30% of all medicines can be replaced with a sugar pill in a control group, and the patient being told they're getting medication, and the sugar pill works just like the actual medication can. However, both groups are told what the medication is for and what it should do for them, and neither group knows which pill they've gotten; placebo or actual medication. A surprising effect happens with many, many trials. That is, those who get the placebo pill still often show similar results to those who get the actual drug. No one quite knows why, but oftentimes, the people getting the placebo show at least some benefit (perhaps not to the same intensity as the drug, but still experience benefits), even though the pill they've gotten has NO medical benefits whatsoever, as an inert substance. They also may experience 'side effects' that they've been told the actual medication will give them, again, even though they've taken an inert substance.</! p> Sci entists have looked at the phenomenon of subconscious mind power for quite some time now. Just understanding the whole process is a masterful thing in itself, but utilizing it can make all the difference in your life. In today's world, doctors have come around to believing the importance of the subconscious mind. Good ways to see it for yourself is by getting a new prescription and wait for your physician to tell you about the side effects. There is now a school in medical practice that says that doctors should not inform patients of side effects, though this is hotly debated from a medical ethics standpoint. This suggestive power, and your subconscious mind power, used in concert, can unlock great potentials for you. Unfortunately, it has taken us far longer to reach this understanding then it should have throughout history. It was used thousands of years ago by ancient religions and then realized years later. Once we figured out that the power of suggestion combined with subconscious mind power could change anyone's life, it was much easier to train the mind. Many people find visualization to be an useful technique to get in touch with their subconscious mind power. Best of all, visualization is easy to do. You can simply close your eyes and try to 'view' anything that you want in your mind's eye. As a visualization aid, some people like to focus on a picture, like buying a new car. Get a snap shot of the one you want. Even better, get a picture of you in that car. Hang it everywhere. Put a copy of the picture on your fridge, in the car, your bedroom - everywhere so that you see it throughout the day. Your subconscious mind will eventually make it reality. This has been common knowledge for years, but we're just now starting to put it into action. Well, some of us anyways, others have already utilized their secret potential hidden within the subconscious mind. As physicists know, at its essence all matter is made of pure energy and there is evidence! which s uggests that our minds may be able to influence this energy. In fact, quantum physics has actually proven that the energy itself does not exist UNLESS it is observed. See, it may be hard to understand your first time going over the subject, but the subconscious mind is the reason your matter and energy is obtained. In the past we believed it to be the other way around. All matter and hence all reality has been proven to be a creation of our mind. This is the true meaning of 'subconscious mind power'! This idea that reality is shaped by our perceptions of it is the fundamental precept of Eight Way Buddhism, where the goal is to achieve enlightenment by giving up all wants, and all negative focuses. Sound familiar? Whether you come to the Law of Attraction through popularizations of quantum mechanics or religion, it's still a powerful effect to harness. Now that you know that your perceptions and mind shape your world, what are you going to do with this new found power? Try it; spend the next week or so using visualization techniques or affirmations (or a combination of both) to get what you want. Start small so that you can get acclimated to this new power. Once you see that it works, change your life by changing the way you think;literally. Develop the power your subconscious mind, sit back, and watch what happens.

Do all you can, with what you have, in the time you have, in the place where you are. Posted: 09 Jan 2012 10:06 AM PST One of the strangest and most meaningful experiences of my life occurred when I going through Rolfing (ten brilliant sessions of deep-tissue bodywork) in my early 20′s. The fifth session works on the stomach area, and I was anticipating (= dreading) the release of buried sadness. Instead, there was a dam burst of love, which poured out of me during the session and afterward. I realized it was love, not sadness, that I had bottled up in childhood – and what I now needed to give and express. We can hold back our contributions to the world, including love, just as much as we can muzzle or repress sorrow or anger. But contribution needs to flow; it stagnates and gets stinky if it doesn't. Thwarted contribution is the source of much unhappiness. For example, the wound of loneliness and heartache is about not having others to give to as much as not having others to get from. And one of the major issues with adolescence in technological cultures is that there are few opportunities for teenagers to make a real difference, to matter and feel a sense of earned worth. Now, "contribution" covers a lot of ground. It includes big things like raising a child, inventing the paperclip, or composing a symphony. But mainly it's a matter of many little things. You give or receive hundreds of small offerings each day, such as doing the dishes, treating customers with respect, picking up a gum wrapper, encouraging a friend, having good intentions, or staying open to feedback. You contribute with thought, word, and deed, and both by what you do and by what you restrain yourself from doing. In addition to the offerings you already make, you may sense other things inside that want to be offered. Can you open to these and let them flow? It does not matter how large or small they are. As Nkosi Johnson – a South African boy born with HIV who became a national voice for children with AIDS before dying at about age 12 – once said: Do all you can, with what you have, in the time you have, in the place where you are. How can we learn to give? Appreciate some of the things you already contribute through thought, word, and deed. Let yourself feel good about this. Moving through your day, try considering your contributions as offerings – particularly the little things that are easy to overlook, such as the laundry, courteous driving, or saying thanks. When you relate to everyday actions as offerings, you feel an intimacy with the world, more kindness, perhaps even something sacred. Also try on a sense of being unattached to the results of your offerings. Sure, it's OK to hope for the best. But if you get fixed on some outcome, it's a set up for pressure and disappointment. I got a good lesson about this from my friend David, who was becoming a priest in an urban zen center and preparing for his first public talk. I asked David if it bothered him to work hard to present something precious to people who might not value it. He looked at me like he could not understand my question. Then he made a gesture with both hands as if he were setting something at my feet, saying: "My part is to give the talk as best I can. Whatever they pick up is up to them. I hope it's helpful, but that's out of my hands." It's alright to make offerings from enlightened self-interest. When you give, you receive. Which helps you keep giving. To be benevolent to others, you must be benevolent to yourself. Also listen to your heart for additional offerings calling to be expressed. Maybe it's the offering of never speaking out of anger, or really starting that novel, or determining to give love each day. It could even be an offering to your future self – the being above all others you have the greatest power over, and thus the highest duty to – such as regular exercise or taking steps toward a better job. Help yourself sustain this practice by feeling good about your contributions, regarding actions as offerings, staying focused on a key new offering, and holding self-criticism at bay. As Leonard Cohen sings: Ring the bells that still can ring Forget your perfect offering There is a crack in everything That's how the light gets in That's how the light gets in Related posts: "Buddha Bob": turning his life around, one bead at a time From time-out to quiet time: meditation comes to SF schools Everything is aging, all the time.

What Are the Signs of Spiritual Awakening? Posted: 09 Jan 2012 10:00 AM PST by AlicePopkorn Article by Belinda Daly, B.D. Open your eyes and start looking around your surroundings. All appears to be in the same situation as you left it a while ago or is it? For example you are meditating and you have just finished stretching your arms and legs; you are feeling relaxed and calm. You are feeling rested, invigorated, well, and happy. The meditation session was good. Nonetheless, sometimes you query yourself what is an actual spiritual awakening and if I have already reached such an understanding. Many people would debate that the experience of spiritual enlightenment is so deep and life altering that it is just impossible to miss. When you accomplish spiritual growing, knowing the signs might assist them to understand that they are already in the place. Divine awakening is not a continuous thing, it can come and go. Therefore, it could really be better if you know if you're getting closer in attaining it or not. If we base our meaning to the Buddhist and Christian methods, we have a spiritual emerging rooted on the enlightenment or awakening of the consciousness and knowing their real or their unique self. This awakening of the consciousness is an advanced form of awareness; where the consciousness is able to see past the more evident carnal self. This is being aware, detecting and feeling their life that accounts for spiritual developing. Maybe amongst the more noticeable marks of enlightenment is having a firm level of peace. Individuals who have awakened their spirits have established to be more dedicated in reaching their aims. It appears they appear to have reached a degree of stillness where understandings, reminiscences, problems, as well as desires, are no longer causing misunderstanding and interruptions. What I mean is it is like every interruption you have experienced has been set aside and stored away which results in having a clear path from the start to finish. Amid the signs of spiritual developing is having self-discipline. Once you reach the level of spiritual Awakening, you not on! ly exerc ise free will but instinctively know what evil things need to be cast away and choose only the right path based on proper wisdom and good judgment. People and things that offer brief desires are no longer entertained since these deeds often lead to misery in the long run and only offer passing happiness. Self-effacement and self-sacrificing love are other signs of an awakened spirit. Having an awakened spirit is the willingness to acquire, comprehend, and toil for the happiness of not only yourself but of others as well. An awakened spirit will allow people to begin existing in agreement with both Mother Nature and other individuals. Empathy and friendship will be equal irrespective of race, nationality and culture. Sincere bliss, non-attachment, having the right instinct and feelings of non-attachment are other signs of spiritual awakening. Remember, to look out for any of the mentioned signs present in you after a meditation session. You may be surprised at what you discover.

Zen does not mean sitting Posted: 09 Jan 2012 08:09 AM PST Characteristically, the modern Soto cult of Zen begins with the belief that in order to study the Buddha's awakening we must do lots of zazen (i.e., sitting Zen).  This is not true when you measure such a belief against the Stress Reduction canon.  Along with this, it should also be pointed out that many mendicants during the time of the Buddha also sat in meditation.  The Jains, for example, sat in dhyâna(zen) .  How many attained the Buddha's awakening? There is more to Zen, and for t hat matter, Buddhism, than sitting on one's arse.  This is what the late Zen master Hsu-yun (1840–1959) had to say about zazen. "Fundamentally a Ch'an [Zen] hall is out of place; moreover Ch'an does not mean sitting (in meditation).  The so-called Ch'an hall and the so-called Ch'an sitting are only provided for people (who encounter) insurmountable obstructions (of their own) and who are of shallow wisdom in this period of decadence (of the Dharma)" (Lu K'uan Yü, Ch'an and Zen Teaching (1970), p., 35).

How To Prepare To Meditate Posted: 09 Jan 2012 07:07 AM PST by premasagar Article by Owen Jones There is a great deal of nonsense talked about meditation. I do not mean what it can do for you because that is difficult to prove one way or the other. I have read people saying that they discovered all sorts of things in meditation and who am I to say that they did not only because I have not had the precisely same experience. I believe that there are numerous stages of evolution and therefore what one person experiences in one way another might experience in a entirely different way. No, I mean that there is a great deal of rubbish talked about how one has to meditate. I am reading an article this moment by someone who says: '... for a successful meditation practice, everything has to be ideal ..... the room has to be set up in such a way ...' and so it goes on. The person who wrote that piece appears never to have even thought let alone ever meditated. Meditation has always been most often practiced by people with a spiritual bent. Of those people, most people who meditated were monks, because they were seeking enlightenment and had the time and peacefulness to meditate. It was difficult to find the time or the peacefulness if you were a subsistence farmer with ten kids running about. Anyway, lower orders of monks are not famous for living opulent lives where 'everything ... is perfect'. They live quiet lives and when they want to meditate, they will not be disturbed, no matter where they are but particularly in their cells. My father used to drive out to a cliff top and meditate behind a bush gazing out 100 feet above the Bristol Channel. Often he did it in the middle of the night. It is best that the people you live with understand that when you want to meditate that they must try not to make a great deal of noise and certainly not call you by name or barge into the room where you are. How you can accomplish this in your household, you know better than I, but talking to cohabitants and hanging a sign in a prominent position can help as can always m! editatin g at the same hour of the day, although is not usually practical. Most of us have to take our free time whilst we can. Turn off anything that makes a noise. Turn off phones and even the door bell, if you can. Open the window, if it is not unbearably cold or raining cats and dogs. Have a shower and put on loose-fitting comfortable clothes like pyjamas. Sit on the floor, if you can; cross-legged, if you can. If you are nearly there, try sitting on a cushion or pillow. There are things known as zafu or meditation pillows, which are small and thick. Some are round and others are square, but a round zafu might be 12 inches in diameter and four to six inches in thickness. This is to raise you off the ground enough to take the strain off your hips and knees, if you are not used to sitting cross-legged. It will encourage a correct posture, that is a straight back. It is also softer on the behind and when you are sitting comfortably, you may begin.

Three Ways to Cultivate Patience in 2012 Posted: 09 Jan 2012 07:07 AM PST Therese Borchard: Ah patience. How do we cultivate you without driving ourselves more crazy? Being that my new year's resolution is to be more content with living with the questions in my life versus rushing towards the answers, I found useful the advice in Allan Lokos's new book, Patience: The Art of Peaceful Living. Lokos is the founder and guiding teacher of the Community Meditation Center in New York City, and the author of Pocket Peace: Effective Practices for Enlightened Living. Here are the three themes that I found most helpful in his book. 1. See things as they are.

Penjing - indoor grill Manufacturer - barbecues grills Manufacturer Posted: 09 Jan 2012 06:00 AM PST by Tianyake Article by hi joiney History Penjing at the Rock and Penjing Museum in Wuhan China Classical Chinese gardens often contain arrangements of miniature trees and rockeries known as Penjing These creations of carefully pruned trees and rocks are small scale renditions of the natural landscape They are often referred to as living sculptures or as three dimensional poetry Their artistic composition captures the spirit of nature and distinguishes them from ordinary potted plants Origin of the Components The container known as the pen originated in Neolithic China in the Yangshao culture as an earthenware shallow dish with a foot It was later one of the vessels manufactured in bronze for use in court ceremonies and religious rituals during the Shang dynasty and Zhou dynasty When foreign trade introduced into China new herbal aromatics in the second century BCE a unique incense burner was designed The boshanlu stemmed cup was topped by a perforated lid in the shape of one of the sacred mountains islands such as Mount Penglai a strong contemporary belief often with the images of mythical persons and beasts throughout the hillsides Smaller versions of the pen dish were sometimes used as bottom pieces either to catch hot embers or to be filled with water to represent the ocean out of which the sacred mountains islands arose Originally made out of bronze ceramic or talc stone it is believed that some later versions were actual interesting shaped stones which occasionally were partly covered with moss and lichens to further heighten the miniature representation Since at least the first century CE Daoist mysticism included the recreating of magical sites in miniature to focus and increase the properties found in the full size sites The introduction of various schools of Buddhism from India after the mid second century included the meditative dhyana sect whose translations sometimes used Daoist terminology to convey non physical concepts Also floral altar decorations were introduced and floral designs started to become a dominant fo!

His interests in Zen Buddhism, the I Ching and in Hinduism were reflected in his innovative and experimental music in which he extended the musical vocabulary to include elements of noise and chance. "Sonatas and Interludes", written between 1946 and 1948, is a set of pieces for prepared piano, an instrument into which objects have been inserted - screws, bolts, plastic and rubber, to give various percussive effects. The work reflects Cages approach to the use of unusual sounds and his interest in Hinduism, with its distinction between 'white' and 'black' emotions, set around central tranquillity.

How Meditation Can Improve Your Health Posted: 09 Jan 2012 12:03 AM PST by anna_t Article by frank tibss How Meditation Can Improve Your Health The most common image of meditation is one of a monk in a religious experience. However, meditation is actually a practice that anyone can do to improve mind function and overall health. Meditation has been proven to reduce stress levels and it can even help with conditions such as high blood pressure. Once you've become more calm and peaceful through meditation, your life will open up to more opportunities and you'll find it easier to make healthy choices. What Exactly Is Meditation? Meditation is a way of clearing the mind. Once you've gotten into a habit of meditating often, you'll discover that it's easier than you think. Some people sit in a cross-legged position when they meditate, but this isn't mandatory. Another sitting position might be more comfortable for you, but the key is to maintain a good posture. If you slouch, you're more likely to get tired and feel like falling asleep. To get started, find a quiet place and get comfortable. Then start taking deep breaths in and out. Pay attention to your breath. You might find it helpful to say a "mantra" to yourself as you breathe in and out. Your goal is to keep your mind clear of thoughts. Thoughts are inevitable though. The best way to eliminate them is to recognize that you've had a thought and then focus on your breathing and clearing your mind again. This will get easier with frequent practice. Stress Free When you focus on breathing and clearing your mind, you're actually centered on the present moment. On the other hand, stress arises when you think about something in the past or future. Since you have little stress when you have a clear mind in the present moment, you exude calmness. When you practice this often, you can bring a calm, stress-free demeanor to your everyday life. Stress And The Body When you feel stressed, you put your body into overdrive. When it's overworked, it's more open to various diseases and diso! rders. S tress exists for a reason; you need to have the hormonal adrenalin rush and increased breathing and heart rate in order to escape threatening situations. It's simply how you're able to handle threats. By always having your mind on past or future stressors, you keep your mind and body in a stressful state even when you aren't enduring a stressful situation in the present. This is exactly why it's important to give your body a much needed break from all the stress. When you learn to meditate often, you're giving your body the energy and rest it needs to stave off exhaustion and disease. Improving Your Health The absence of overwhelming stress improves your health in many ways. You'll likely enjoy lower blood pressure and a strengthened immune system. Stress can also lead to mental disorders, so when you strive to be stress-free, you'll keep anxiety and depression away as well. When you meditate, you place your body in a kind of sleep state. You're still awake, but your body can begin to repair itself in the same way that it does when you sleep. If you meditate in the morning or at night, you can help yourself transition from sleeping to wakefulness and vice versa. Meditation is the ultimate exercise for a healthy mind and body. You'll feel refreshed and rejuvenated once you've given it a try. Who knew that "just sitting" could be so helpful!

What would a new scientific religion look like? Posted: 09 Jan 2012 12:00 AM PST The world needs a new religion. The ones we have are outdated. Every major religion -- Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism -- dates from prescientific days. Apple comes up with a new and improved iPhone every year or so. Why should we be content with ancient forms of spirituality concocted by people who didn't even know that the Earth revolves around the Sun, much less about quantum theory, relativity, the big bang, and evolution? Our old religions are deeply problematic. A short piece from the National Academy of Sciences on "Compatibility of Science and Religion" pinpoints the problem. Science and religion are based on different aspects of human experience. In science, explanations must be based on evidence drawn from examining the natural world. Scientifically based observations or experiments that conflict with an explanation eventually must lead to modification or even abandonment of that explanation. Religious faith, in contrast, does not depend only on empirical evidence, is not necessarily modified in the face of conflicting evidence, and typically involves supernatural forces or entities. Because they are not a part of nature, supernatural entities cannot be investigated by science. I don't find much to disagree with here, though I have a quibble with the phrase "only on empirical evidence." This implies that religious faith is founded largely, or at least a lot, on empirical evidence. Huh? Most religious people consider that a leap of faith requires leaving behind solid factual ground and trusting in the reality of things unknown. It's the end of the National Academy of Sciences piece that bothers me the most. In this sense, science and religion are separate and address aspects of human understanding in different ways. Attempts to pit science and religion against each other create controversy where none needs to exist. Well, that's an idealistic attitude. Unfortunately, religion doesn't restrict itself to supernatural entities. Other-worldly forces such as God, spirit, the Devil, karma, and such are believed to affect this physical universe. So science and religion inevitably will butt heads when believers in the supernatural claim that they know more than scientists do about some physical phenomenon, yet can't prove this divine knowledge is true because it isn't based on empirical evidence. Hey, religion: you can't have it both ways! Feel free to play around with the supernatural, claiming that religiosity offers an enhanced faith-based perspective on reality. But if you want to venture onto the ground of science, be prepared to bring some demonstrable evidence to back up your claims. That scientific ground is, of course, this world. It's where each of us is born, lives, and dies. It's where we breathe, eat, work, love, explore, theorize, laugh, cry, create, talk, walk. I'm very much open to the possibility that there's more to reality than materiality, this universe. However, in my current churchless state of mind I'm no longer willing to surrender the reality of this world for a promise of a supernatural realm. I want my religion (if I ever find a suitable one) to be completely compatible with modern science. Perhaps I'll have to create my own religion. As the above quote noted, science continually grows, expands, and changes as more is learned about the natural world. Religions, though, mostly stay stuck on the theological foundations established by their founders (Jesus, Muhammed, Buddha, etc.). Today, through science, we know that... The universe came into being about 14 billion years ago; life on Earth got started around 3.5 billion years ago; humans evolved from primitive life forms, so we are related to every currently living entity, even bacteria; the brain is a "meat computer" without which bodily consciousness is impossible; there are several hundred billion galaxies, each containing on average hundreds of billions of stars. ...and so much more. Is there room for the supernatural in a scientific view of the world and ourselves? Sure. But a modern religion can't ignore facts about the natural side of reality. Remaining true to science while embracing some form of supernaturalism is difficult. I know, because I've tried (and am still trying) to come up with a scientifically-compatible conception of the cosmos that offers some of the reassuring cool belief-stuff that traditional religions provide: assurance of life after death, objective meaning, continuation of consciousness without a physical brain. There's a good reason why religions were born in pre-scientific times: it's damn hard, perhaps impossible, to believe in supernatural dogmas which seem to be ruled out by solid findings of modern science. Like I said, it's possible that a new religion could say Yes! to all of science while also affirming the truth of a non-material realm of reality. I await the revelation.  Read More @ Source Curious Consciousness 3 - God New Episodes every Friday!

DHA (Docosahexaenoic acid) on how it helps to reduce stress Posted: 08 Jan 2012 10:03 PM PST by martapiqs Article by Michelle Watson What is DHA? It's was also commonly known as Docosahexaenoic acid which is an omega-3 essential fatty acid. In chemical structures, it composes of carboxylic acid with a 22-carbon chain and six cis (cis-trans isomerism) double bonds. Docosahexaenoic acid is most often found in fish oil which is originates on various photosynthetic and heterotrophic microalgae, and concentrates in organisms as it moves up the food chain. Although some of these fish contain low levels of mercury, based on the Food and Drug Administration it has found that consuming several servings of fish each week poses no risk to healthy people and conveys many health benefits. Those for women who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant should avoid Atlantic mackerel, shark, swordfish, and tilefish, and should limit consumption of white albacore tuna to fewer than 6 oz. per week. (High-quality fish oil supplements made by manufacturers who test for mercury and other toxins do not pose the same risk of mercury contamination. Read labels carefully and check for purity, or ask your doctor to help you find the best quality DHA supplement.) For infants, breast milk from a well-nourished mother contains significant amounts of DHA, while infant formula often has none. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) may regulate stress mediators, such as catecholamine's (high levels in the blood are associated with stress) and pro-inflammatory cytokines (intercellular messengers responsible for signaling many cellular functions), and it may help reduce perceived stress, according to a study reported in Nutrition Journal. Members of a university staff who were stressed (measured by a score of 17 on the Perceived Stress Scale) were randomized to two groups for a six-week trial. Group one took six grams of fish oil containing 1.5 grams per day of DHA. Group two took a placebo (six grams of olive oil). The groups were compared to one another and also to a wider cross-sectional study population that did not receive any treatment. The ! subjects had significant reductions in perceived stress in both the treatment and placebo groups from baseline to the study's conclusions. However, the fish-oil group had a significantly better rate of stress reduction compared to the control group while the placebo group did not. The researchers stated that DHA appeared to have adaptogenic effects but that a larger study was needed to support the findings. The docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is available as a natural supplements in two usual common forms: * Fish oil capsules which contain both DHA and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) - another omega-3 fatty acid which this two omega-3 essential fatty acids that play important roles in maintaining healthy skin as well as cardiovascular and defense system function. * DHA extracted from algae (which contains no EPA) - What is algae? It is a large and diverse group of autotrophic organism which is ranging from unicellular to multicellular. This is also the largest and most complex marine forms are which is called seaweeds. How about the benefits? Based on the initial reports it claims that it helps to fight cancer, AIDS, heart disease, lower cholesterol, boost the immune system, and detoxify the body.
