Comment on: Photo 'ZEN': sdom as it really is: “This is not mine, this I am not, this is not my self.” Whatever is feeling, whatever is perception, whatever are habitual tendencies, whatever is consciousness, past, future, present, subjective or objective, gross or subtle, mean or excellent, whether it is far or near — all should be seen by perfect intuitive wisdom as it really is“This is not mine, this I am not, this is not my self.” Buddha Gautama (born 563 B.C.) …; Added by Michael Grove at 11:49 on January 3, 2012

Video: INSIDE JOB Official Trailer in HD!: rtant documentaries ever made, and people will watch this and be angered and say "this can't continue, something needs to change" but nothing will change, this will go and on and our patience will run out with governments and the so called banksters. I don't believe this will have a happy ending, the rich will get richer and the less fortunate will become poorer. Just look at what people power has done in Egypt and Libya.…; Added by Michael Grove at 9:18 on February 10, 2013

Comment on: Blog Post 'Bu Yan Zhi Jaio ...': space beyond is both pure and revered. On the ground a pace inside the gateway we have placed the Chiriana [dust hole], where one may dispose of mental dust/rubbish, such as selfish desires, before embarking on ones journey round the garden. Winding paths lead from the entrance past the water garden to other..., and the element of mystery created reflects the mystery of the universe which we may contemplate whilst walking or sitting in one of the seating areas placed around the garden. This journey is a physical and sensory experience. Our eyes follow the stone paths, our ears hear the sound of our footsteps on the gravel and we feel connected to the earth. The canopy provided by the old willows creates an enclosed, sheltered, protected space in which we feel comfortable and relaxed. Water reflects the sky and the sound of running water stimulates our awareness of being alive, of being connected to the universe. In this calm yet vital environment we are able to examine our inner feelings and understand them. Our senses offer a gateway to our inner being. As the pathways interconnect so the streams flow above and below ground, disappearing in one place to reappear further along, and the dry riverbeds of summer glisten and run during the wetter periods. …; Added by Michael Grove at 9:04 on April 5, 2012

Comment on: Blog Post 'Barbara McClintock RIP': –1945 McClintock planted corn kernels that were self-pollinated, meaning that the flowers were pollinated by the silk of their own plant. These kernels came from a long line of plants that had been self-pollinated, causing broken arms on the end of their ninth chromosome. As the maize plants began to grow, McClintock noted unusual colour patterns on the leaves. For example, one leaf had two albino patches of almost identical size, located side by side on the leaf. McClintock hypothesized that during cell division certain cells lost genetic material, while others gained what they had lost. However, when comparing the chromosomes of the current generation of plants and their parent generation, she found certain parts of the chromosomes had switched positions on the chromosome. She disproved the popular genetic theory of the time that genes were fixed in their position on a chromosome. McClintock found that genes could not only move, but they could also be turned on or off due to certain environmental conditions or during different stages of cell development. McClintock also showed that gene mutations could be reversed. McClintock presented her report on her findings in 1951, and published an article on her discoveries in Genetics in November 1953 entitled, ″Induction of Instability at Selected Loci in Maize.″ Her work would be largely dismissed and ignored until the late 1960s-1970s when it would be rediscovered after TEs were found in bacteria. She was awarded a Nobel Prize in Medicine or Physiology in 1983 for her discovery of TEs, more than thirty years after her research and initial discovery. TEs are more common than usually thought. Approximately 90% of maize genome is made up of TEs, and 50% in the human genome.…; Added by Michael Grove at 11:48 on June 14, 2015

Comment on: Blog Post '70 years old today !': ognising reincarnation is an authentic mode of investigation based on people's recollection of their past lives. Explaining that he was no superhuman, the Dalai Lama, known for his simplicity and typical jovial style, said: "I am just a simple Buddhist monk. I try to do my best all the time. I am 80 years old now and I have lived my entire life practising the knowledge and I will continue to practise it till I am physically able." Thousands of Tibetan exiles, foreigners and Indian dignitaries joined in the birthday celebrations here. Crowds began to assemble since morning at the temple for the birthday celebrations. "Special prayer sessions were held for the perfect health and long life of our spiritual leader the Dalai Lama," Tsering Wangchuk, a spokesperson for the Central Tibetan Administration (CTA). …; Added by Michael Grove at 18:27 on June 22, 2015
