In the teaching of Samadhi, it is a specific meaning, it means "with Effort" in terms of the visualization. Yes, the general sense of effort is apparent from what you write, but you seem to have no...

It does; they are only separated as degrees of practice or perception. A lot of the tantric path is based on achieving first, a visualized, later, a self-arisen deity form. These forms are used,...

Yes, I did guess. That is a strange form of infanticide, abandonment. Doesn't everybody know you might wind up with your own little baby Moses that way?

About the only thing that is worse is when...

In Akanistha or Rainbow Body.

This "level" says she could have used a real person, or a Daka consort, and she appears to have use a Daka for Karmamudra, at least in that example. But, further...

From the thesis, I was able to gander a few more things.

Achi means "grandmother" (cf. Ma chig "One Mother").

Her grandson or great-grandson, Jigten Sumgon, calls her an incarnation of...

Vagus sounds like hunger. First sign of a new life! Craving the destruction of other forms.

I have no doubt that the physical nervous system is still quite important and highly conditioning. I...

I can get that...conceptually...kind of. Functionally, I cannot. With respect to the root I can say that age makes no difference towards the sensation that if I think about some kind of being in...

In the aspect of the Tip being related to Orgasmic Bliss, then yes internally the cervix is the center whereas on the surface it is Bird Beak or clitoris. Her root opening is more of a Lotus which,...

As a consequence of not really having a human Guru, I wonder what would be the next closest thing. I unfortunately do not experience Nirmanakayas of Mandarava or anything like that. I am familiar...

I have not.

No, if it is unclear that expansion does not stretch the body, this is why Mandala begins as a plane with just a Fence, and by the practitioner adding an axis with Nadir and Zenith, is...

Cakravega the Elision

As a proper name, she has just a few very specific instances.

She is in the big Vajravarahi mandala, which is based on Abhidhanottara Tantra, where she is both physically...

Yes.

Again, I think some of the Pali breaks down into its specific commentaries in Theravada, and I am just going for the general parallels. When I want to really listen to them, then ask them...

Yes. Vajradhatvishvari just happens to be an example of Pink in this specific instance.




Isn't Usnisa by definition at the crown? Why the heart here?[/QUOTE]

Yes, but, Usnisa deities are...

I was a little surprised by the appearance of "Upacara" as I was not familiar with it.

It actually does not come from the Sutras, it comes from Vishuddhimagga, and it kind of at the heart of a...

I am not surprised. Although brief, it is obviously something from Highest Yoga.

I would say Chakrasamvara is a mantric compound.

Then I would say it begins with what I am going to add below,...

The correction of Kilaya's consort to Dipta is important with respect to the similar term, Lamp, or Dipa.

Dipta arguably has more connotation towards hot, excited, and blazing than a Lamp, which...

Trptachakra sounded unusual to me, and, the only examples of it appear to be someone saying that this "reading" is unattested and not found in the commentaries because the ordinary consort of...

Maybe that is not too far from Kila, or Ganapati, or the powerful Obstacle Removers, which I personally have only recently begun to see.

I put a little more into the Kila post above.

This may help, and it is hard to see, since Phurba is a major Nyingma practice that looks different.

It is used by Vajrasattva in Extremely Wrathful form, where he has a consort called "the...

Should be an "r" in Pranayama. When I copy stuff, sometimes I leave the garbage, depends on how much time I have.

Now as far as "synonyms", depends on your mindset. I do not think of myself as...
