    What do you think of these concepts?

    Sorry, I was being very crude and simplistic in that summary. It's not really "non-attachment" per se. I'd be open to anything you had to say on the matter though, as you'd probably know more than I :)

    Advice for non-Hindu

    Thanks much! Where is the accent? I'm thinking the "ja". The hardest part, for me, is thinking of the ja as ju (ahhjuunee instead of ahhjaanee).

    What do you think of these concepts?

    Awaiting, True, there is some evidence to suggest there are dimensions we cannot directly percieve. In my writing, I plan to be careful about making claims about the nature of these universes beyond which we currently know. In other words, I'm not going to fill them up with all manner of extra...

    What the Bleep do

    I have only heard bits about it, but it sounds like it makes the common misrepresentation of Quantum Mechanics, suggesting that it supports the notion that we create reality by observing it, which is complete poppycock and not at all what QM says. I've also heard that it is dishonest with...

    What do you think of these concepts?

    Yes, exactly right. I hope to focus on the good advice for living found in these various works and leave belief about the supernatural up to the individual :) Haha, thanks. While it may be a somewhat tedious effort to create, my hope is that the final product will be smooth and easy for the...

    Advice for non-Hindu

    Yes, Ajani is a Sanskrit word meaning "path". This is one reason why I like using the name for my philosophy.

    Finally finished refurbishing my philosophy site!

    I had a case of sprawling websites getting out of control. I finally refurbished my philosophy websites to two sister-sites, one for philosophy and one for my blog. Would love to hear comments :) Thanks!

    What do you think of these concepts?

    Yes I agree that many people sort of pick and choose elements from different philosophies and religions that make sense to them. I am no exception. But usually for most people this is sort of a "choose as you go" activity. My hope is to lay something down in a structured and cohesive manner...

    What do you think of these concepts?

    Thanks Lunamoth, I have a section planned that is intended to give a more existential perspective on the world we live in as being a "wonderous" world such as the magical or science fiction worlds we imagine in our stories. In doing so, I draw parallels between science and historic concepts of...

    What do you think of these concepts?

    I'm playing around with some ideas for some philosophy writings where I plan to being together a lot of different aspects into a cohesive whole (I haven't done that yet, so don't expect this to be cohesive hehe). While I have a lot more detail worked out that what follows, here are some of the...
