I am pleased that Luminous Heart is available in our Library.

It also has the real book of Orthodox Hesychasm, which I take as pretty similar to a stage or two of Yoga.


The work of H. H. III...

Yes Bill...very good mind of you sir.

Recommended to all. The "copyrighted" stuff in there is that it begins with a dense, detailed history of Yogacara.

It's where we find the Tibetan...

This has reached a high level of technical difficulties.


I quickly discovered that the important work by H. H. III Karmapa is no longer hosted; it is published by Tsadra, who lists it under the...

Yes this is very auspicious.

No it is not strictly a Buddhist tradition but it is really on the cusp exemplified by the Malla era that something which is actually Shakta co-exists in a close...

Thank you as well.


When I open this page, I get such an example. I posted something like five subjects at once, which might make sense to me, but I can understand it might be just a big cluster...

Thank you.

This is something like the "Project" aspect of our forum's title. That is to say, a lot of what I initially posted was merely "gathering", so things happened in random sequence, and I...

In Memory of Fergus the Great



This thread may be coming in for a re-launch under a different heading; I am trying to do two things: present accurate historical information in a way that is...

This has not been curated in a while and I see for instance some images no longer work.

I took some breathing room because we reached the cusp, in the middle of additional works being translated...

Dharma and Ashoka versus Ashoka



It is not just King Sudas who has been forgotten.

The Lion Capital of Sarnath was adopted as a national symbol merely as a random suggestion after "nothing...

Dynasties (additional material)



Following through with support for the previous post, it may be fundamentally incorrect to subject the Sanskrit ethos to any implied identity with "world...

Dharma and Artha; Mahacina and Vedic History: Flood and Drought, Solar and Lunar Dynasties



This is out of some recent re-considerations of the lensed views in most of the knowledge base. It...

Lakshmi--Tara and Rudra--Agni as The Year; symbolism of Homa; internal structure of Sadhanamala; the Iron Age and Vartali






We have posted a few aspects of Vasudhara as introductory for...

Horse and Ashwattha history, Jewel Family and Vasudhara




Part of the knowledge base we are collecting is a reversal of Academia, particularly starting with new archaeological finds and...

Vedic History and Vasumati



There arguably is a difference between the horse-using Aryans and Sanskrit and the sedentary and neatish dwellings of Indus Valley which probably had a different...

Aside from the two wrathful deities at the ends,...

Vasudhara related to Homa and Dharani Samgraha




Vasudhara is such a critical gating goddess, because she is approachable as an individual follower, as a dharani; and then we find she remains...

Nine Families, Mrtyuvacana Upadesa, Purana Samhita




This is interesting, through a sort of ongoing irony, I think we can see through Brian Hodgson's material much more effectively now. He was...

Vimanas and Vajratunda




It struck me as inappropriate that at least since around the 60s, "Chariots of the Gods" gave westerners an excuse to claim that the Indian folklore was an attempt to...

Pratisara Muttering and new Golden Light Sutra




Like unfolding a lotus, we will start using the symbol of the Crescent for the step past basic Deity Yoga, which we started with a fusion of...

Historical layers of Mahalakshmi, Durga, Kirats, Lapis Lazuli, Kambala's Seven Syllable Deity





After posting that the story of Samjna is included in the simple inquiry, who is Vairocani?,...
