Nedēļas nogalē ikgadējais sarunu festivāls "Lampa" un arī šogad turpinām intervēt pētniekus, kuri uzstāsies festivālā, lai stāstītu, kā domāt par dažādiem jautājumiem lēnām. Kāpēc nesteidzīga domāšana ir tik būtiska dažādās zinātnes jomās un ne tikai un kāpēc domāt par matemātiku, ķīmiju un novecošanu ir aizraujoši? Raidījumā Zināmais nezināmajā sarunājas matemātiķis ar specializāciju topoloģijā Jānis Lazovskis, RSU vadošā pētniece un veselības psiholoģe Kristīne Šneidere un Latvijas Valsts koksnes ķīmijas institūta pētniece Daniela Godiņa. Sarunaspar domāšanas procesiem, kuriem pakļauti cilvēki zinātnē, iesākam ar Jāni Ruško - ķīmiķi, kurš festivālā “Lampa” runās par lēno domāšanu saistībā ar pārtikas drošības riskiem. Pētnieks ir pārliecināts, ka jautājumos ir jāiedziļinās, tie jāaplūko no vairākiem rakursiem, bet pie publikāciju lasīšanas un rakstīšanas vēlams atgriezties vairākos piegājienos. Domāt lēni var par matemātikas formulām, par vecumu un arī par pārtikas drošību un risku novērtējumu. “Domā lēni par riskiem” - šī būs viena no sarunām šī gada festivālā “Lampa” uz Pasaulē mazākās skatuves. Savas izklāsta Pārtikas drošības, dzīvnieku veselības un vides zinātniskā institūta “BIOR” pētnieks Jānis Ruško. Vispārīgi runājot, risku novērtēšana ir process, kurā, balstoties zinātniskos datos, tiek izvērtēts, vai un cik lielā mērā kāda viela, produkts vai vides faktors var negatīvi ietekmēt cilvēku vai dzīvnieku veselību vai vidi. Jānis Ruško norāda, ka risku analīze ir starpdisciplināra, tāpēc arī institūta komandā ir gan ķīmiķi kā viņš pats, gan arī veterinārmedicīnas pārstāvji, biologi un citi speciālisti. Arī 2024. gadā pirms sarunu festivāla "Lampa" sarunājamies par lēno domašanu.

Una persona fue asesinada en una cancha en Lampa, mientras que en la región de Valparaíso se vio a alguien sacar una pistola en un partido de fútbol de barrio. La preocupación crece sobre la penetración del narcotráfico en el fútbol amateur, donde algunos clubes son respaldados por personas vinculadas al tráfico de drogas. Este fenómeno, aunque no nuevo, refleja una degradación social. Se señala que se pagan jugadores en efectivo sin contrato, lo que evidencia la presencia del narcotráfico en este ámbito.

This episode we will finish up the travels of Xuanzang, who circumnavigated the Indian subcontinent while he was there, spending over a decade and a half travelings, visiting important Buddhist pilgrimage sites, and studying at the feet of learned monks of India, and in particular at Nalanda monastery--a true center of learning from this period. For more, check out our blogpost page:  https://sengokudaimyo.com/podcast/episode-122 Rough Transcript Welcome to Sengoku Daimyo's Chronicles of Japan.  My name is Joshua and this is episode 122:  Journey to the West, Part 3 The courtyard at Nalanda was quiet.  Although hundreds of people were crowded in, trying to hear what was being said, they were all doing their best to be silent and still.  Only the wind or an errant bird dared speak up.  The master's voice may not have been what it once was—he was definitely getting on in years—but Silabhadra's mind was as sharp as ever. At the front of the crowd was a relatively young face from a far off land.  Xuanzang had made it to the greatest center of learning in the world, and he had been accepted as a student of perhaps the greatest sage of his era.  Here he was, receiving lessons on some of the deepest teachings of the Mahayana Buddhist sect, the very thing he had come to learn and bring home. As he watched and listened with rapt attention, the ancient teacher began to speak….   For the last two episodes, and continuing with this one, we have been covering the travels of the monk Xuanzang in the early 7th century, starting around 629 and concluding in 645.  Born during the Sui dynasty, Xuanzang felt that the translations of the Buddhist sutras available in China were insufficient—many of them had been made long ago, and often were translations of translations.  Xuanzang decided to travel to India in the hopes of getting copies in the original language to provide more accurate translations of the sutras, particularly the Mahayana sutras.  His own accounts of his journeys, even if drawn from his memory years afterwards, provide some of our most detailed contemporary evidence of the Silk Road and the people and places along the way.  After he returned, he got to work on his translations, and became quite famous.  Several of the Japanese students of Buddhism who traveled to the Tang dynasty in the 650s studied under him directly and brought his teachings back to Japan with them.  His school of “Faxiang” Buddhism became known in Japan as the Hosso sect, and was quite popular during the 7th and 8th centuries.  Xuanzang himself, known as Genjou in Japan, would continue to be venerated as an important monk in the history of Buddhism, and his travels would eventually be popularized in fantastic ways across East Asia. Over the last couple of episodes we talked about Xuanzang's illegal and harrowing departure from the Tang empire, where he had to sneak across the border into the deserts of the Western Regions.  We then covered his time traveling from Gaochang, to Suyab, and down to Balkh, in modern Afghanistan.  This was all territory under the at least nominal control of the Gokturk empire.  From Balkh he traveled to Bamyan, and then on to Kapisa, north of modern Kabul, Afghanistan.  However, after Kapisa, Xuanzang was finally entering into the northern territories of what he knew as “India”, or “Tianzhu”. Here I would note that I'm using “India” to refer not to a single country, but to the entirety of the Indian subcontinent, and all of the various kingdoms there -- including areas now part of the modern countries of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka.  The Sinitic characters used to denote this region are pronounced, today, as “Tianzhu”, with a rough meaning of “Center of Heaven”, but it is likely that these characters were originally pronounced in such a way that the name likely came from terms like “Sindhu” or “Induka”.  This is related to the name of the Sindh or Indus river, from which India gets its name.  Xuanzang's “Record of the Western Regions” notes that the proper pronunciation of the land should be “Indu”.  In Japan, this term was transmitted through the Sinitic characters, or kanji, and pronounced as “Tenjiku”.  Since it featured so prominently in the stories of the life of the Buddha and many of the Buddhist sutras, Tenjiku was known to the people of the Japanese archipelago as a far off place that was both real and fantastical. In the 12th century, over a thousand stories were captured for the “Konjaku Monogatarishu”, or the “Collection of Tales Old and New”, which is divided up into tales from Japan, China, and India.  In the famous 9th or 10th century story, “Taketori Monogatari”, or the “Bamboo-Cutter's Tale”, about princess Kaguya hime, one of the tasks the princess sets to her suitors is to go to India to find the begging bowl of the Buddha.  Records like those produced by Xuanzang and his fellow monks, along with the stories in the sutras, likely provided the majority of what people in the Japanese archipelago knew about India, at least to begin with. Xuanzang talks about the land of India as being divided into five distinct parts—roughly the north, south, east, west, and center.  He notes that three sides face the sea and that the Snow Mountains—aka the Himalayas—are in the north.  It is, he says, “Wide in the north and narrow in the south, in the shape of a crescent moon”.  Certainly the “Wide in the north and narrow in the south” fit the subcontinent accurately enough, and it is largely surrounded by the waters of what we know as the Indian Ocean to the west, the east, and the south.  The note about the Crescent Moon might be driven by Xuanzang's understanding of a false etymology for the term “Indus”, which he claims comes from the word for “moon”.  Rather, this term appears to refer to the Indus River, also known as the Sindh or Sindhus, which comes from an ancient word meaning something like “River” or “Stream”. Xuanzang also notes that the people of the land were divided into castes, with the Brahman caste at the top of the social hierarchy.    The land was further divided into approximately 70 different countries, according to his accounts.  This is known broadly as the Early Medieval period, in India, in which the region was divided into different kingdoms and empires that rose and fell across the subcontinent, with a total size roughly equivalent to that covered by the countries of the modern European Union.  Just like Europe, there were many different polities and different languages spoken across the land – but just as Latin was the common language in Europe, due to its use in Christianity, Sanskrit was the scholarly and religious language in much of India, and could also be used as a bridge language.  Presumably, Xuanzang understood Sanskrit to some extent as a Buddhist monk.  And, just a quick note, all of this was before the introduction of Islam, though there were other religions also practiced throughout the subcontinent, but Xuanzang was primarily focused on his Buddhist studies. Xuanzang describes India as having three distinct seasons—The hot season, the rainy season, and the cold season, in that order.  Each of these were four month long periods.  Even today, the cycle of the monsoon rains is a major impact on the life of people in South Asia.  During the rainy season, the monks themselves would retreat back to their monasteries and cease their wanderings about the countryside. This tradition, called “Vassa”, is still a central practice in many Theravada Buddhist societies such as Thailand and Laos today, where they likewise experience this kind of intensely wet monsoon season. Xuanzang goes on to give an in depth analysis of the people and customs of the Indian subcontinent, as he traveled from country to country. So, as we've done before, we'll follow his lead in describing the different locations he visited. The first country of India that Xuanzang came to was the country of Lampa, or Lamapaka, thought to be modern Laghman province in Afghanistan.  At the time it was a dependency of Kapisa.  The Snow Mountains, likely meaning the Hindu Kush, the western edge of the Himalayas, lay at its north, while the “Black Mountains” surrounded it on the other three sides.  Xuanzang mentions how the people of Lampa grow non-glutinous rice—likely something similar to basmati rice, which is more prevalent in South Asian cuisine, as compared to glutinous rice like more often used in East Asia. From Lampa he headed to Nagarahara, likely referring to a site near the Kabul River associated with the ruins of a stupa called Nagara Gundi, about 4 kilometers west of modern Jalalabad, Afghanistan.  This was another vassal city-state of Kapisa.  They were still Mahayana Buddhists, but there were other religions as well, which Xuanzang refers to as “heretical”, though I'm not entirely sure how that is meant in this context.  He does say that many of the stupas were dilapidated and in poor condition. Xuanzang was now entering areas where he likely believed the historical Buddha had once walked.  In fact, Lampa was perhaps the extent of historical Buddha's travels, according to the stories and the sutras, though this seems unlikely to have been true.  The most plausible locations for the Historical Buddha's pilgrimages were along the Ganges river, which was on the other side of the subcontinent, flowing east towards modern Kolkatta and the Bengal Bay.  However, as Buddhism spread, so, too, did stories of the Buddha's travels.  And so, as far as Xuanzang was concerned, he was following in the footsteps of the Buddha. Speaking of which, at Nagarahara, Xuanzang mentions “footprints” of the Buddha.  This is a Buddhist tradition found in many places.  Xuanzang claims that the Tathagatha, the Englightened One, or the Buddha, would fly, because when he walked the land itself shook.  Footprint shapes in rock could be said to be evidence of the Buddha's travels.  Today, in many Buddhist areas you can find footprints carved into rock conforming to stories about the Buddha, such as all the toes being of the same length, or other various signs.  These may have started out as natural depressions in the rock, or pieces of artwork, but they were believed by many to be the actual point at which the Buddha himself touched down.  There are famous examples of these footprints in Sri Lanka, Thailand, and China.  Of course there are also traditions of creating images of the footprint as an object of worship.  Images of footprints, similar to images of the Great Wheel of the Law, may have been some of the earliest images for veneration, as images of the Buddha himself did not appear until much later in the tradition.  One of the oldest such footprints in Japan is at Yakushiji temple, and dated to 753.  It was created based on a rubbing brought back by an envoy to the Tang court, while they were in Chang'an. Like Buddha footprints, there are many other images and stories that show up multiple times in different places, even in Xuanzang's own narrative.  For example, in Nagarahara Xuanzang also shares a story of a cave, where an image of the Buddha could be just barely made out on the wall – maybe maybe an old carving that had just worn away, or maybe an image that was deliberately placed in the darkness as a metaphor for finding the Buddha—finding enlightenment.  This is not an uncommon theme in Buddhism as a whole.  In any case, the story around this image was that it had been placed there to subdue a naga. Now a naga is a mythical snake-like being, and  we are told that this particular naga was the reincarnation of a man who had invoked a curse on the nearby kingdom, then threw himself from a cliff in order to become a naga and sow destruction.  As the story went, the man was indeed reborn, but before he could bring destruction, the Buddha showed up and subdued him, convincing him that this was not right.  And so the naga agreed to stay in the cave, where the Buddha left an image—a shadow—to remind the naga any time that its thoughts might turn to destruction. Later in his travels, at a place name Kausambi, Xuanzang mentions another cave where the Buddha had subdued a venomous dragon and left his shadow on the cave wall.  Allowing for the possibility that the Buddha just had a particular M.O. when dealing with destructive beings, we should also consider the possibility that the story developed in one region—probably closer to the early center of Buddhism, and then traveled outward, such that it was later adopted and adapted to local traditions.  From Nagarahara, Xuanzang continued to the country of Gandhara and its capital city of Purushapura, aka modern Peshwar.  This kingdom was also under vassalage to the Kapisan king.  Here and elsewhere in the journey, Xuanzang notes not only evidence of the historical Buddha, but also monasteries and stupas purported to have been built by King Kanishka and King Asoka.  These were important figures who were held in high regard for spreading Buddhism during their reign.  Continuing through the region of Gandhara, he also passed through Udakhand and the city of Salatura, known as the birthplace of the ancient Sanskrit grammarian, Daksiputra Panini, author of the Astadhyayi [Aestudjayi].  This work is the oldest surviving description of classical Sanskrit, and used grammatical and other concepts that wouldn't be introduced into Western linguistics for eons.  Daksiputra Panini thrived around the 5th or 4th century BCE, but was likely one of the reasons that Sanskrit continued to be used as a language of scholarship and learning even as it died out of usage as the day to day language of the common people.  His works and legacy would have been invaluable to translators like Xuanzang in understanding and translating from Sanskrit. Xuanzang continued on his journey to Kashmira, situated in the Kashmir Valley.  This valley sits between the modern states of Pakistan and India, and its ownership is actively disputed by each.  It is the namesake of the famous cashmere wool—wool from the winter coats of a type of goat that was bred in the mountainous regions.  The winter coat would be made of soft, downy fibers and would naturally fall out in the spring, which the goatherds harvested and made into an extremely fine wool.  In the 7th century and earlier, however, the region was known not as much for its wool, but as a center for Hindu and Buddhist studies.  Xuanzang ended up spending two years in Kashmira studying with teachers there.  Eventually, though, he continued on, passing through the country of Rajpura, and continuing on to Takka and the city of Sakala—modern day Sialkot in the Punjab region of modern Pakistan.  Leaving Sakala, he was traveling with a group when suddenly disaster struck and they were accosted by a group of bandits.  They took the clothes and money of Xuanzang and those with him and then they drove the group into a dry pond in an attempt to corral them while they figured out what they would do—presumably meaning kill them all.  Fortunately for the group, there was a water drain at the southern edge of the pond large enough for one man to pass through.  Xuanzang and one other went through the gap and they were able to escape to a nearby village.  Once they got there, they told the people what had happened, and the villagers quickly gathered weapons and ran out to confront the brigands, who saw a large group coming and ran away.  Thus they were able to rescue the rest of Xuanzang's traveling companions.  Xuanzang's companions were devastated, having lost all of their possessions.  However, Xuanzang comforted them.  After all, they still had their lives.  By this time, Xuanzang had certainly seen his fair share of life and death problems along the road.  They continued on, still in the country of Takka, to the next great city.  There they met a Brahman, and once they told him what had happened, he started marshalling the forces of the city on their behalf.  During Xuanzang's stay in Kashmira, he had built a reputation, and people knew of the quote-unquote “Chinese monk”.  And even though the people in this region were not necessarily Buddhist—many were “heretics” likely referring to those of Hindu faith—the people responded to this pre-Internet “GoFundMe” request with incredible generosity.  They brought Xuanzang food and cloth to make into suits of clothes.  Xuanzang distributed this to his travel companions, and ended up still having enough cloth for 50 suits of clothes himself.  He then stayed at that city a month. It is odd that they don't seem to mention the name of this location.  Perhaps there is something unspeakable about it?  Still, it seems that they were quite generous, even if they were “heretics” according to Xuanzang. From the country of Takka, he next proceeded to the kingdom of Cinabhukti, where he spent 14 months—just over a year—studying with the monks there.  Once he had learned what he could, he proceeded onwards, passing through several countries in northern India until he came to the headwaters of the sacred Ganges rivers.  The Indus and the Ganges rivers are in many ways similar to the Yellow River and Yangzi, at least in regards to their importance to the people of India.  However, whereas the Yellow River and Yangzi both flow east towards the Pacific Ocean, the Indus and Ganges flow in opposite directions.  The Indus flows southwest, from the Himalayas down through modern India into modern Pakistan, emptying into the western Indian Ocean.  The Ganges flows east along the base of the Himalayas and enters the eastern Indian Ocean at Kolkatta.   At the headwaters of the Ganges, Xuanzang found a Buddhist monk named Jayagupta and chose to spend the winter and half of the following spring listening to his sermons and learning at his feet. From there he continued his travels, and ended up being summoned by King Harshavardhana of Kanyakubja, known today as the modern city of Kannauj.  Harshavardhana ruled an immense state that covered much of the territory around the sacred Ganges river.  As word of this strange monk from a far off land reached him, the King wanted to see him for himself.  Xuanzang stayed in Kannauj for three months, completing his studies of the Vibhasha Shastra, aka the Abhidarmma Mahavibhasha Shastra, known in Japanese as the Abidatsuma Daibibasharon, or just as the Daibibasharon or the Basharon, with the latter two terms referring to the translations that Xuanzang performed.   This work is not a sutra, per se, but rather an encyclopedic work that attempted to speak on all of the various doctrinal issues of its day.  It is thought to have been authored around 150 CE, and was influential in the Buddhist teachings of Kashmira, when that was a center of Orthodoxy at the time.  This is what Xuanzang had started studying, and it seems that in Kannauj he was finally able to grasp everything he felt he needed to know about it in order to effectively translate it and teach it when he returned.  That said, his quest was not over.  And after his time in Kannauj, he decided to continue on. His next stop was at the city of Ayodhya.  This was—and is—a city of particular importance in Hindu traditions.  It is said to be the city mentioned in the epic tale known as the Ramayana, though many argue that it was simply named that later in honor of that ancient city.  It does appear to be a city that the historical Buddha, Siddhartha Gautama, visited and where he preached.  It was also the home of a famous monk from Gandhara who authored a number of Buddhist tomes and was considered, at least by Xuanzang, a proper Boddhisatva.  And so Xuanzang spent some time paying homage to the places where the Buddha and other holy figures had once walked. “Ayodhya” appears in many forms across Asia.  It is a major pilgrimage center, and the city of “Ayutthaya” in Thailand was named for it, evoking the Ramayana—known in Thai as the Ramakien—which they would adopt as their own national story.  In Silla, there is a story that queen Boju, aka Heo Hwang-ok, wife to the 2nd century King Suro of Geumgwan Gaya, traveled to the peninsula all the way from the foreign country of “Ayuta”, thought to mean Ayodhya.  Her story was written down in the Gaya histories and survives as a fragment found in the Samguk Yusa.  Members of the Gimhae Kim, Gimhae Heo, and Incheon Yi clans all trace their lineage back to her and King Suro. From Ayodhya, Xuanzang took a trip down the Ganges river.  The boat was packed to bursting with some 80 other travelers, and as they traveled towards a particularly heavily forested area, they were set upon by bandits, who rowed their ships out from hiding in the trees and forced the travelers to the shore.  There the bandits made all the travelers strip down and take off their clothing so that the bandits could search for gold or valuables.  According to Xuanzang's biography, these bandits were followers of Durga, a Hindu warrior-goddess, and it is said that each year they would look for someone of particularly handsome features to sacrifice to her.  With Xuanzang's foreign features, they chose him.  And so they took him to be killed.  Xuanzang mentioned that he was on a pilgrimage, and that by interrupting him before they finished he was worried it might be inauspicious for them, but he didn't put up a fight and merely asked to be given time to meditate and calm his mind and that they perform the execution quickly so that he wouldn't even notice. From there, according to the story, a series of miracles occurred that ended up with Xuanzang being released and the bandits worshipping at his feet.  It is times like this we must remember that this biography was being written by Xuanzang's students based on stories he told them about his travels.  While being accosted by bandits on the river strikes me as perfectly plausible, we don't necessarily have the most reliable narrators, so I'm going to have to wonder about the rest.  Speaking of unreliable narration, the exact route that Xuanzang traveled from here on is unclear to me, based on his stated goals and where he was going.  It is possible that he was wandering as opportunities presented themselves —I don't know that he had any kind of map or GPS, like we've said in the past.  And it may be that the routes from one place to another were not always straightforward.  Regardless, he seems to wander southeast for a period before turning again to the north and eventually reaching the city of Shravasti. Shravasti appeared in our discussion of the men of Tukhara in Episode 119.  With the men of Tukhara there was also mentioned a woman from Shravasti.  While it is unlikely that was actually the case—the names were probably about individuals from the Ryukyuan island chain rather than from India—it is probably worth nothing that Shravasti was a thriving place in ancient times.  It was at one time the capital city of the kingdom of Kosala, sharing that distinction with the city of Ayodhya, back in the 7th to 5th centuries BCE.  It is also where the historical Buddha, Siddhartha Gautama, was said to have spend many years of his life.  This latter fact would have no doubt made it a place of particular importance to Xuanzang on his journeys. From there he traveled east, ending up following the foothills of the Himalayas, and finally came to some of the most central pilgrimages sites for followers of the historical Buddha.  First, he reached Lumbini wood, in modern Nepal, said to have been the birthplace of Prince Siddhartha Gautama, the Buddha.  And then he visited Kushinagara, the site where the Buddha ascended to nirvana—in other words, the place where he passed away.  From there, he traveled to Varanasi, and the deer park monastery, at the place where the Buddha is said to have given one of his most famous sermons.  He even visited the Bodhi tree, the tree under which Siddhartha Gautama is said to have attained enlightenment.  He spent eight or nine days there at Bodhgaya, and word must have spread about his arrival, because several monks from the eminent Nalanda Monastery called upon him and asked him to come to the monastery with them. Nalanda Monastery was about 80 km from Bodhgaya.  This was a grand monastery and center of learning—some say that it was, for a time, the greatest in the world.  It had been founded in the 5th century by the Gupta dynasty, and many of the Gupta rulers and others donated to support the monastery, which also acted as a university.  After the fall of the Gupta dynasty, the monastery was supported by King Harsha of Kannauj, whom Xuanzang had visited earlier.  It ultimately thrived for some 750 years, and is considered by some to be the oldest residential university—meaning that students would come to the temple complex and stay in residence for years at a time to study.  According to Xuanzang, Nalanda hosted some 10,000 monks. Including hosts and guests.  They didn't only study Buddhist teachings, but also logic, grammar, medicine, and divination.  Lectures were given at more than 100 separate places—or classrooms—every day.  It was at Nalanda, that Xuanzang would meet the teacher Silabhadra, who was known as the Right Dharma Store.  Xuanzang requested that he be allowed to study the Yogacharabhumi Shastra—the Yugashijiron, in Japanese.  This is the work that Xuanzang is said to have been most interested in, and one of the works that he is credited with bringing back in one of the first full translations to the Tang dynasty and then to others in East Asia.  It is an encyclopedic work dedicated to the various forms of Yogacara practice, which focuses on the mental disciplines, and includes yoga and meditation practices.  It has a huge influence on nearly all Mahayana schools, including things like the famous Zen and Pure Land schools of Buddhism.  The Yogacharabhumi Shastra is the earliest such encyclopedic work, compiled between the 3rd and 5th centuries—so even if the monk Faxian had brought portions of it back, it was probably not in the final form that Xuanzang was able to access. Silabhadra, for his part, was an ancient teacher—some put his age at 106 years, and his son was in his 70s.  He was one of the few at Nalandra who supposedly knew all of the various texts that they had at the monastery, including the Yogacarabhumi Shastra.  Xuanzang seems to have been quite pleased to study under him.  Xuanzang stayed at the house of Silabhadra's son, Buddhabhadra, and they welcomed him with entertainment that lasted seven days.  We are told that he was then given his own lodgings, a stipend of spices, incense, rice, oil, butter, and milk, along with a servant and a Brahman.  As a visiting monk, he was not responsible for the normal monastic duties, instead being expected to spend the time in study.  Going out, he was carried around by an elephant.   This was certainly the royal treatment. Xuanzang's life at Nalandra wasn't all books: south of the monastery was the city of Rajagrha, the old capital of the kingdom of Magadha, where the ancient Gupta kings had once lived, and on occasional breaks from his studies, Xuanzang would venture out to see the various holy sites.  This included the famous Mt. Grdhrakuta, or Vulture Peak, a location said to be favored by the historical Buddha and central to the Lotus Sutra, arguably the founding document of Mahayana Buddhist tradition. After all, “Mahayana” means “Greater Vehicle” and it is in the Lotus Sutra that we see the metaphor of using different vehicles to escape a burning house.   We've already talked a bit about how the image of Vulture Peak had already become important in Japanese Buddhism: In Episode 112 we talked about how in 648, Abe no Oho-omi had drums piled up at Shitennoji in the shape of Vulture Peak. But although the sightseeing definitely enhanced his experience, Xuanzang was first and foremost there to study.  He spent 15 months just listening to his teacher expound on the Yogacarabhumi Shastra, but he also heard expositions on various other teachings as well.  He ended up studying at Nalandra Monastery for 5 years, gaining a much better understanding of Sanskrit and the various texts, which would be critically important when it came to translating them, later. But, Xuanzang was not one to stay in any one place forever, and so after 5 years—some 8 years or more into his journey, he continued on, following the Ganges east, to modern Bangladesh.  Here he heard about various other lands, such as Dvarapati—possibly referring to Dvaravati, in modern Thailand, as well as Kamalanka and Isanapura.  The latter was in modern Cambodia, the capital of the ancient Chenla kingdom.  Then Mahacampa—possibly referring to the Champa region of Vietnam—and the country of Yamanadvipa.  But there was still more of India for Xuanzang to discover, and more teachings to uncover, and so Xuanzang decided instead to head southwest, following the coast.  He heard of the country of Sinhala, referring to the island of Sri Lanka, but he was urged not to go by ship, as the long journey was perilous.  Instead he could stay on relatively dry land and head down to the southern tip of the subcontinent and then make a quick hop from there across to the island.  He traveled a long distance, all the way down to Kancipuram, the seat of the Pallava dynasty, near modern day Chennai.  From the seaport near Kancipuram, it was only three days to Sinhala—that is to say Sri Lanka—but before he could set out, he met a group of monks who had just arrived.  They told him that the king of Sinhala had died , and there was a great famine and civil disturbances.  So they had fled with some 300 other monks. Xuanzang eventually decided not to make the journey, but he did talk with the monks and gathered information on the lands to the south, on Sri Lanka, and on the islands south of that, by which I suspect he may have meant the Maldives.  While Sri Lanka is an area important to Buddhist scholarship, particularly to the Theravada schools, this likely did not impress Xuanzang, and indeed he seemed to feel that his studies in Nalanda had more than provided him what he needed.  Sri Lanka, however, is the source of the Pali canon, one of the most complete early canons of Buddhism, which had a huge influence on Theravada Buddhism in Southeast Asia and elsewhere. So Xuanzang took plenty of notes but decided to forego the ocean voyage and headed northwest, instead.  He traveled across the breadth of India to Gujarat, and then turned back east, returning to pay respects once more to his teacher in Nalanda.  While there he heard of another virtuous monk named Prajnabhadra at a nearby monastery.  And so he went to spend several months with him, as well.  He also studied with a layman, Sastrin Jayasena, at Stickwood Hill.  Jayasena was a ksatriya, or nobleman, by birth, and studied both Buddhist and non-Buddhist texts.  He was courted by kings, but had left to continue his studies.  Xuanzang studied with him for another couple of years. Xuanzang remained at Nalanda, learning and teaching, expounding on what he had learned and gathering many copies of the various documents that he wished to take back with him, though he wondered how he might do it.  In the meantime, he also acquired quite the reputation.  We are told that King Siladitya had asked Nalanda for monks who could refute Theravada teachings, and Xuanzang agreed to go.  It isn't clear, but it seems that “Siladitya” was a title, and likely referred to King Harsha of Kannauj, whom we mentioned earlier.  Since he was a foreigner, then there could be no trouble that was brought on Nalanda and the other monks if he did poorly.  While he was waiting to hear back from Siladitya's court, which was apparently taking time to arrange things, the king of Kamarupta reached out to Nalanda with a request that Xuanzang come visit them.  While Xuanzang was reluctant to be gone too long, he was eventually encouraged to go and assuage the king. Kamarupta was a kingdom around the modern Assam region, ruled by King Bhaskaravarman, also known as King Kumara, a royal title.  This kingdom included parts of Bangladesh, Bhutan, and Nepal.  Bhaskaravarman, like so many other regents, seems to have been intrigued by the presence of this foreign monk, who had traveled all this way and who had studied at the famous Nalanda Monastery in Magadha. He invited Xuanzang to come to him.  Xuanzang's teacher, Silabhadra, had exhorted him to spread the right Dharma, and to even go to those non-Buddhists in hopes that they might be converted, or at least partially swayed. King Bhaskaravarman was quite taken with Xuanzang, wining and dining him while listening to him preach.  While there, Xuanzang learned about the country of Kamarupta.  He also learned about a path north, by which it was said it was a two month journey to arrive at the land of Shu, in the Sichuan Basin, on the upper reaches of the Yangzi – a kind of shortcut back to the Tang court.  However, the journey was treacherous—possibly even more treacherous than the journey to India had been. Eventually word reached the ears of King Siladitya that Xuanzang was at the court of King Bhaskaravarman, and Siladitya got quite upset.  Xuanzang had not yet come to *his* court, so Siladitya demanded that Bhaskaravarman send the monk to him immediately.  Bhaskaravarman refused, saying he'd rather give Siladitya his own head, which Siladitya said he would gladly accept.  Bhaskaravarman realized he may have miscalculated, and so he sailed up the Ganges with a host of men and Xuanzang to meet with Siladitya.  After a bit of posturing, Siladitya met with Xuanzang, who went with him, and eventually confronted the members of the Theravada sect in debate.  Apparently it almost got ugly, but for the King's intervention.  After a particularly devastating critique of the Theravada position, the Theravada monks are blamed for trying to use violence against Xuanzang and his fellow Mahayana monks from Nalanda, who were prepared to defend themselves.  The King had to step in and break it up before it went too far. Ultimately, Xuanzang was a celebrity at this point and both kings seem to have supported him, especially as he was realizing it was about time to head back to his own country.  Both kings was offered ships, should Xuanzang wish to sail south and then up the coast.  However, Xuanzang elected to take the northern route, hoping to go back through Gaochang, and see that city and its ruler again.  And so the Kings gave him money and valuables , along with wagons for all of the texts.  They also sent an army to protect all of the treasures, and even an elephant and more – sending him back in style with a huge send-off. So Xuanzang retraced his earlier steps, this time on an elephant.  He traveled back to Taxila, to Kashmir, and beyond.  He was invited to stay in Kashmira, but because of his retinue, he wasn't quite at leisure to just go where he wanted.  At one point, near Kapisa—modern Bagram, north of Kabul—they had to cross a river, and about 50 of the almost 700 documents were lost.  The King of Kapisa heard of this and had his own monks make copies to replace them based on their own schools.  The King of Kasmira, hearing that he was in Kapisa, also came to pay his respects. Xuanzang traveled with the King of Kapisa northwest for over a month and reached Lampaka, where he did take some time to visit the various holy sites before continuing northwest.  They had to cross the Snow Mountains—the outskirts of the Himalayas, and even though it wasn't the highest part of the range it was still challenging.  He had to dismount his elephant and travel on foot.  Finally, after going over the high mountains and coming down, he arrived back in the region of Tukhara, in the country of Khowst.  He then came to Kunduz, and paid his respects to the grandson of Yehu Khan.  He was given more guards to escort him eastward, traveling with some merchants.  This was back in Gokturk controlled lands, over a decade later than when he had last visited.  He continued east to Badakshan, stopping there for a month because of the cold weather and snow.  He eventually traveled through the regions of Tukhara and over the Pamir range.  He came down on the side of the Tarim Basin, and noted how the rivers on one side flowed west, while on the other side they flowed east.  The goings were treacherous, and at one point they were beset by bandits.  Though he and the documents were safe, his elephant panicked and fled into the river and drowned.  He eventually ended up in the country of Kashgar, in modern Xinjiang province, at the western edge of the Taklamakan desert. From there he had two options.  He could go north and hug the southern edge of the Tianshan mountains, or he could stay to the south, along the northern edge of the Himalayan range and the Tibetan plateau.  He chose to go south.  He traveled through Khotan, a land of wool and carpets.  This was a major trade kingdom, and they also grew mulberry trees for silkworms, and were known for their jade.  The king himself heard of Xuanzang and welcomed him, as many others had done.  While he was staying at the Khotanese capital, Xuanzang penned a letter to the Tang court, letting them know of his journey, and that he was returning.  He sent it with some merchants and a man of Gaochang to deliver it to the court. Remember, Xuanzang had left the Tang empire illegally.  Unless he wanted to sneak back in his best hope was that the court was willing to forgive and forget all of that, given everything that he was bringing back with him.  The wait was no doubt agonizing, but he did get a letter back.  It assured him that he was welcome back, and that all of the kingdoms from Khotan back to the governor of Dunhuang had been made aware and were ready to receive him. With such assurances, Xuanzang packed up and headed out.  The king of Khotan granted him more gifts to help see him on his way.  Nonetheless, there was still a perilous journey ahead.  Even knowing the way, the road went through miles and miles of desert, such that in some places you could only tell the trail by the bleached bones of horses and travelers who had not been so fortunate.  Eventually, however, Xuanzang made it to the Jumo River and then on to Dunhuang, from whence he was eventually escorted back to the capital city. It was now the year 645, the year of the Isshi Incident in Yamato and the death of Soga.  Xuanzang had been gone for approximately 16 years.  In that time, the Tang had defeated the Gokturks and taken Gaochang, expanding their control over the trade routes in the desert.  Xuanzang, for his part, was bringing back 657 scriptures, bound in 520 bundles carried by a train of some 20 horses.  He was given a hero's welcome, and eventually he would be set up in a monastery where he could begin the next part of his journey:  Translating all of these books. This was the work of a lifetime, but it is one that would have a profound impact on Buddhism across East Asia.  Xuanzang's translations would revolutionize the understanding of Mahayana Buddhist teachings, and students would come from as far away as the Yamato court to study under him and learn from the teacher who studied and taught at none other than Nalanda monastery itself.  His school would become popular in the Yamato capital, and the main school of several temples, at least for a time.  In addition, his accounts and his biography would introduce many people to the wider world of central and south Asia.  While I could go on, this has already been a story in three parts, and this is, after all, the Chronicles of Japan, so we should probably tune back into what is going on with Yamato.  Next episode, we'll look at one of the most detailed accounts we have of a mission to Chang'an. Until then, I hope that this has been enjoyable.  Xuanzang's story is one of those that isn't just about him, but about the interconnected nature of the entire world at the time.  While his journey is quite epic, there were many people traveling the roads, though most of them didn't write about it afterwards.  People, artifacts, and ideas traveled much greater distances than we often consider at this time, well before any kind of modern travel.  It was dangerous, but often lucrative, and it meant that various regions could have influence well beyond what one might expect.

Posiadaczy kotów nie trzeba chyba przekonywać o wyjątkowej inteligencji tych niezwykłych zwierząt. Gdyby ktoś jednak miał co do tego jakieś wątpliwości, z pewnością rozwieje je historia opublikowana w styczniowym numerze "Nieznanego Świata" z roku 2012.

Carlos Montes, ministro de Vivienda y Urbanismo, abordó en Canal 24 Horas la investigación sumaria ordenada por un proyecto inmobiliario del Grupo Patio en la comuna de Lampa y en el que habría intervenido Luis Hermosilla.

A ocho días de los primeros daños del intenso sistema frontal, que mantiene todavía sin energía eléctrica a más de 10.000 hogares de la comuna, el alcalde de Lampa, Jonathan Opazo, destacó este viernes, en El Diario de Cooperativa, el despliegue de las Fuerzas Armadas que dispuso ayer el Gobierno para ayudar en el despeje de escombros en las calles de las zonas críticas.

Internets ir mainījis to, kā un kad sabiedrība aktualizē sev svarīgus jautājumus un cik nopietnā cīņā par dažādu problēmu risināšanu ir gatava doties varas gaiteņos. Vai tie būtu miljoniem parakstu petīcijā par dzīvnieku tiesībām, studentu kredītu dzēšanu Amerikā vai iniciatīvas ar mērķi atkārtoti caurskatīt apsūdzēto spriedumus - tiešsaistes parakstu vākšana ir kļuvusi par iedzīvotāju skaļo balsi brīžos, kad politiskā elite tos nav uzklausījusi. Kā tas notiek Latvijā un Ukrainā, kādas tendences vērojamas iniciatīvu iesniegšanā un kas ir cilvēki, kuri tās iesniedz, par to stāsta Latvijas Universitātes sociālo zinātņu doktorants, platformas "ManaBalss.lv" projektu vadītājs Didzis Meļķis. Pievēršamies demokrātijai, digitālajām tehnoloģijām un sabiedrībai aktuālām problēmām. Šos visus vārdus vieno tiešsaistes platformas, kurās iedzīvotāji iesniedz iniciatīvas ar mērķi mainīt likumdošanu. Šāda parakstu vākšana kalpo ne tikai interešu aizstāvībai, tā ir arī lielisks veids, kā apjaust sabiedrības noskaņojumu, vērtības un galu galā - politiķiem tā ir iespēja “nopirkt kādu ideju” priekšvēlēšanu kampaņai. Vai šo gadu laikā platforma ir kļuvusi par tādu kā sabiedrības balsi, mani labāk sadzirdēs, ja es parādīšu, cik parakstus savācu, kādu politisko, sociālo kapitālu esmu savācis, tad citas durvis veras plašāk? Didzis Meļķis: Šī sistēma ir nostiprinājusies, viņa nav 13 gadu laikā izveidojusies. Jau no sākta gala, no 2011. gada beigām, no 2012. gada, kad Saeimas kārtības rullī iekļāva grozījumus par kolektīviem iesniegumiem, tā sistēma jau ir. Un tā aizvien ir tikpat spēcīga jeb robusta. Tur nekas nav mainījies. Tas, ko es esmu sapratis no vairākām intervijām un domājot par vēsturi, ka mēs Latvijā esam uz "cūceni" trāpījuši desmitniekā ar savu likumdošanu, un tā ir veiksme. Es tagad skatos ar to pašu Ukrainu, ko pieminēji arī sākumā, viņiem nav tādas veiksmes, un tur ir daudz sarežģītāk un grūtāk. Igaunija, Somija, Vācija, Lielbritāniju vēl dažādas salīdzināmas valstis, kur ir līdzīgas platformas, kāpēc viņas nosacīti darbojas, tā maigi sakot, draudzīgi sakot. Vai arī pēc mūsu stingrajiem kritērijiem lielākais vairums no viņām nedarbojas vispār efektīvi. Tas faktors ir Latvija ar savu tādu ļoti horizontālu sistēmu, kas šeit arī iedibināta, viņa nav vertikāla. Citās valstīs lielais brālis uztaisa infrastruktūru, uztaisa kādu platformu un organizē lietas. Un viņas, piedošanu, nenotiek, salīdzinot ar Latvijas atskaites punktiem. Latvijā lielais brālis teica: nē, nē, mēs to darīsim koleģiāli. Jūs, mīļā sabiedrība, izpildiet mājasdarbus - 100000 parakstu. Vāciet viņus, kā gribat, kaut vai uz banānu lapām. Kad tas mājasdarbs ir izdarīts, tas efekts jau no sākta gala, jau no 2012. gada ir spēcīgs. To man vairākas politiķu paaudzes apliecina un es to pats pieredzu, tas respekts un tā cieņa, un viņa nav viltota, viņa nav mākslīga, viņa nav kaut kāda lišķīga izlikšanās. Politiķi tiešām ciena. Vai mūsdienās cilvēkam ir laiks lēnām un mierīgām domām? Jūlija sākumā, gaidot sarunu festivālu “Lampa”, raidījumā aprunājāmies ar vairākiem zinātniekiem, kuri “Lampas” festivālā aicināja apmeklētājus domāt lēni. Par lēno domāšanu un arī domāšanu kopumā tematu turpinām. Vai mūsdienās, kad dzīvojam informācijas pārsātinājumā, kad virsroku gūst skaļi paziņojumi un straujais dzīves temps, mums vispār ir laiks mierīgi padomāt, iedziļināties tekstos un domāt “lielas” domas? Kā par domāšanu mūsdienās spriež filozofi un kā viņi iesaka domāt lēni? Par šiem jautājumiem izvaicājam Latvijas Universitātes tenūrprofesoru sociālajā filozofijā un Humanitāro zinātņu fakultātes domes priekšsēdētāju Raivi Bičevski. Ne viens vien cilvēks mūsdienās atzīst, ka agrāk laika bija vairāk un pulkstenī vajadzēja skatīties retāk. Vai varētu būt tā, ka sajūta par laiku un to, ko mēs ar to darām, ir mainījusies? Raivis Bičevskis norāda - patiesi, varētu domāt, ka tādas fundamentālas lietas kā domāšana vai emocijas ir kaut kas nemainīgs, tomēr mēs redzam, ka dažādos laikmetos tās ir mainīgas parādības. Par laika izmaiņām runā arī mūsdienu sociologi. Arī šobrīd grūtības un smagi apstākļi, tostarp kara tuvums, mudina cilvēkus gan domāt lēni, gan uzdot lielus jautājumus. Vienlaikus Raivis Bičevskis norāda, ka mēs saskaramies ar modernās kultūras paradoksu - daudzie kanāli, kas piegādā informāciju par pasaulē notiekošo, gan informē, gan liek aizmirst. Mēs daudz ko zinām un daudz ko aizmirstam, un saglabāt eksistenciālo spriedzi un nopietnību, ir grūti, jo ir nākamā un atkal nākamā ziņa. Tas ir patiesi sarežģīts uzdevums prast lietot medijus, informāciju, šķirot tos pēc ideoloģiskām pazīmēm.

Mediju un sabiedrības pētnieki aizvien biežāk runā par ziņu nogurumu un izvairīšanos no ziņām un analītiska satura. Vai ir atpakaļceļš? Vai medijiem ir jāpiemērojas šai tendencei un cik lielā mērā ir jāveicina sabiedrības interese par valstī un pasaulē notiekošo? Krustpunktā tiešraidē no sarunu festivālā "Lampa" diskutē portāla "Delfi" galvenais redaktors, Latvijas Žurnālistu asociācijas valdes priekšsēdētājs Filips Lastovskis, Vidzemes augstskolas asociētais profesors Jānis Buholcs un sociālantropologs, Latvijas Universitātes Ekonomikas un sociālo zinātņu fakultātes docent Artūrs Pokšāns.

Latvijas jaunie zinātnieki nedēļas nogalē Cēsīs festivālā "Lampa", uz “Pasaules mazākās skatuves”, mudinās mūs domāt lēnām par tādiem jautājumiem kā cilvētiesības, ķīmija un robotika. Vai mūsdienu straujajā dzīves ritējumā pašrefleksija vēl vispār tiek piekopta un vai domāt lēnām ir privilēģija? Tie būs vienojošie jautājumi trim dažādu jomu pētniekiem, kuri satikušies Zināmais nezināmajā studijā. Sarunājas Rīgas Stradiņa universitātes Sociālo zinātņu fakultātes docētāja, cilvēktiesību pētniece un eksperte Ilze Bērziņa, Elektronikas un datorzinātņu institūta pētnieks Oskars Teikmanis un zinātniskā institūta "Bior" pētnieks, ķīmiķis Ingus Pērkons. Noteikti daudziem dzīves ritms ir straujš, reizēm nav skaidrs, kur pazūd laiks, un skrējienā ikdienā nav pat laika, lai tā pa īstam ievilktu gaisu plaušās un… padomātu. It kā jau domājam visu laiku, bet cik kvalitatīvi? Vai tas ir apzināts domāšanas process, vai arī tās ir domas, kas šaudās cauri galvai, kārtējo reizi skrienot uz trolejbusu? Nepārmetiet sev, ja tā ir, jo daudziem ir tieši tāpat, bet tieši tāpēc par lēno domāšanu runājam raidījumā.

Žurnāliste Inita Sila daudziem ir pazīstama kā ilggadīga žurnāla "Ieva" galvenā redaktore, nesen - žurnāla "Kā būt laimīgai" galvenā redaktore. Inita ir ne tikai žurnāliste, bet arī autore grāmatām "100 vēstules sievietei" un "Tango ar diviem misteriem V". Nesenākā no tām ir Initas stāsts par pieredzi, pašai saskaroties ar vēža diagnozi. Tagad viņa ir arī "Hospiss LV" pārstāve .Šogad sarunu festivālā "Lampa" Inita vadīja "Nāves kafejnīcas" sarunu "Turies draudziņ". Tā ir gaiša saruna, jo visi tās dalībnieki apliecina, ka tieši vēža diagnoze, savas mirstības apzināšanās, viņiem likusi vēl vairāk novērtēt savu dzīvi. Sarunas ieraksts var iedvesmot tās klausītāju dzīvot pilnasinīgi arī bez diagnozes.Kad Initai tagad jautā, ko viņa dara, viņa atbild: "Dzīvoju." Es ļoti novērtēju viņas atklātību, daloties ne tikai ar savas dzīves pieredzi, bet arī ar idejām, ko Inita ir apguvusi pilnvērtīgākai dzīvošanai.Vairāk informācijas sarunas lapā.SARUNAS PIETURPUNKTI:5:00 Kā atšķiras divas Initas Silas dzīves – viena līdz četrdesmit gadu krīzei, otra pēc tās9:29 “Meklējot savu sapņu profesiju, tev ir jāatceras bērnība, pirmais, ko tu gribēji”11:12 Ar kādu mērķi Inita šobrīd strādā labdarības organizācijā “Hospiss LV”12:39 Kas ir nāves dūla un kādēļ šāds pakalpojums ir nepieciešams22:03 “Dzirde ir pēdējā no maņām, ko cilvēks zaudē pirms nomiršanas”25:21 Kas ir veltīgā ārstēšana un kādas likumu izmaiņas ir plānotas Latvijā31:02 Kā beigt baidīties un sākt baudīt dzīvi36:21 Vai menopauze spēj laupīt dzīvesprieku41:53 “Atļaujies būt nepareiza”43:24 Iemācīties baudīt dzīvi bez alkohola57:49 Triki, kā ierobežot saldumu ēšanu1:00:18 Vērtīgs pieredzes stāsts par anoreksiju ģimenē1:09:05 Jautājums, kuru sev ik pa laikam ir izdevīgi uzdot1:11:15 Prakses, ko Inita Sila piekopj ik dienas1:20:48 “Nerunājot nekas nemainās.

When other people's expectations drive our lives, we run the risk of losing our authentic selves, and are subtly steered away from our own unique paths. We're compelled to show up as others would have us, instead of showing up as our true selves. It can be hard to change our instinct to listen to others and we can get lost in the noise. But when we trust that God will show us who we really are, we are empowered to sift through all those societal expectations and find the courage to stand firm in our truth.  This week, singer and songwriter Rachael Lampa shares how she was thrust into the spotlight at an early age, becoming a number one selling Christian artist at only fifteen years old. After a few years of showing up for her record label, her managers, and her fans, Rachael began to feel her own voice starting to diminish. She shares what brought her back from burnout and how she learned to trust her own voice again. After we hear from Rachael, we'll talk with Dove award winning rapper KB who shares his own identity crisis as a people pleaser, and whose voice of approval he was really seeking in his quest to feel worthy.    Links, Products, and Resources Mentioned: Jesus Calling Podcast Jesus Calling Jesus Always Jesus Listens Past interview: Lauren Alaina Upcoming interview: Daniel Gil Operation Christmas Child   Rachael Lampa People Loving Nashville www.rachaellampamusic.com “Perfectly Loved”   KB www.whoiskb.com His Glory Alone II   Interview Quotes: “It was a really special thing to be able to grow in my faith and also grow in music at the same time and watch how the music reflected where I was with my faith.” - Rachael Lampa  “I'm turning my back on the thing that I thought I was going to do for the rest of my life. It was one of those first moments where I was able to say, ‘I trust God right now, I trust God a lot. I don't have a plan for what this is going to look like.'” - Rachael Lampa  “When we give gifts to people, we don't expect them to take that gift and be like, ‘Here you go, world. You can have it, too.'” - Rachael Lampa “I got to worship [God] in the smallest ways and not always under sound and lights. That is really what brought me to a place where I was able to say, ‘Okay, if music never comes back, I'm okay. I am loved, I still matter, I still have purpose.'” - Rachael Lampa “I fully trust God, and He has just been honestly blowing me away.” - Rachael Lampa “I realized that this unhealthiness that was showing up in my life was connected to me working for the approval of a voice that I would never hear.” - KB  “I'm not able to even taste the fruit of my labor because everything I do is always incomplete because I need the approval of my father. That created all kinds of problems in my heart, but what I found was it made me ripe for the Father God.” - KB  “God's glory doesn't take a backseat, it doesn't suspend itself in our brokenness, in our confusion; it is a part of how God shows up and shows out in our weakness. There is strength in confessing our fragility and there's strength in owning our need for healing.” - KB  “I've been so grateful for the brothers and sisters that God has assigned to me that make up His church, that helped to hold my arms up, helped calm me to repentance and helped to heal the wounds that I've become so acutely aware of.” - KB  “If God is not holding the leash on my desires, if He's not holding the leash on my trauma and what I'm enduring, if He is not holding the leash on my world, I am utterly lost. And I need to break away from that mythical idea that I have the leash in hand and I'm only going to be as happy as I'm in control.” - KB  ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

 Who are you? How are you living?  It's easy to skip over these questions - these are the ones in bible studies I would quickly skip over, dismiss or ignore to get to the “good” stuff. John 4:23-24 “It's who you are and the way you live that count before God. . . . That's the kind of people the Father is out looking for: those who are simply and honestly themselves before him in their worship.”If we're not careful we can get caught up in activities and to-do lists, skipping over the important work of our own soul care.It can seem overwhelming, but when we show up with our little offering, God honors our efforts.School schedules are getting ready to start up again - the lazy days of summer are over.  When your patience - joy - bandwidth - time - grace is growing thin . . . . Remembera little bit of oil in the lampA pinch of yeast made an entire loafTwo pennies (mites) were a full offeringA tiny mustard seed of faith is plenty A little goes a long way if we hand it to God and let Him grow it!  We need to remember to:Step backBe still & quietMake time for yourself - schedule itSpend time in the word Find a group of people to meet with regularly to share lifeDon't Forget to PRAY FOR YOURSELF!!!

En gång fanns det snillrika uppfinnare som grundade framgångsrika svenska industrier. Nobel, Tetra Pak, SKF, ABB föddes alla ur smarta innovationer. Men vilka svenska idéer leder till nya företag idag? Sverige ligger högt på listor över innovativa länder. Till exempel är vi ett av de länder som söker flest patent, räknat per invånare. Men av alla de patenten står enbart Ericsson för nästan en tredjedel. Utan Ericsson är vi inte lika högt rankade.Trots det är vi fortfarande ett framgångsrikt innovationsland, säger Måns Marklund, innovationsanalytiker. Men han tycker att vi trots det kunde vara bättre, med ett bättre stöd till innovatörer, och en tydligare politisk styrning. Enskilda uppfinnare har det svårt idag, säger han. Något som innovationsforskaren Eugenia Perez Vico håller med om. Det krävs stora resurser för att skapa och lansera nya produkter idag, säger hon, vilket är svårt att åstadkomma för en ensam uppfinnare.Den erfarne uppfinnaren Johan Ullman instämmer. Hans erfarenhet säger honom att den ensamme uppfinnarens tid är förbi.Medverkande: Magnus Frodigh, forskningschef på Ericsson; Måns Marklund, innovationsanalytiker Cascelotte AB; Johan Ullman, uppfinnare och Eugenia Perez Vico, innovationsforskare Högskolan Halmstad.Reporter: Tomas LindbladProducent: Björn Gunérbjorn.guner@sr.se

She had a greatest hits album at 21 years old! Rachael Lampa is 38 years old now and after taking a break from a flourishing career years ago, she's making music again that speaks to our souls.  “Perfectly Loved” came from things she shared in her life group about what God was teaching her through her work at a prison ministry. I can't wait for you to hear this warm and inspiring conversation with my new friend, Rachael Lampa.  We talk about life, music, being a mom, and how God often directs us to do things that other people do not understand or approve of. Rachael is a woman who is tuned in to that still small voice of Jesus and a bright light in this world. 

Har du sex med släckt eller tänd lampa?Känner du dig bekväm och kan slappna av helt i den stunden som ska vara så magisk?Känner du dig spänd och rädd att bli bedömd för ditt utseende?Hur kan du tillsammans med din partner hitta den där ytan där ni känner er trygga, kan vara er själva och njuta till fullo - till och med utan att släcka lampan när det är dags.Bella och Sheila möts i ett ärligt samtal om förhållandet till sina egna kroppar när de har sex.

There is comfort and conviction in the idea that we are perfectly loved by God. We can learn about God's perfect love in Scripture and then use Rachael Lampa's song "Perfectly Loved" to remind us of what we've studied. Let's contemplate this area of Scripture together using a meditative practice. In this episode, I discuss the following: Taking a B.I.T.E. out of Scripture – this week's Bible Interaction Tool Exercises include: Pray Repetition Read the text aloud Listen to contemplative music as you meditate Slow down One word Meditate on God's Word Consider the opposite Follow the cross-references Pray Scripture Following the Lectio Devina workflow in Logos Bible Software Stretching yourself by trying something new but giving yourself grace in the process Start by asking God to guide your time in His Word The next step is the "lectio" part of Lectio Devina (which means Divine Reading) - lectio means "reading" in Latin - 1 John 4:15-19 Write down words or phrases that jump out at you - I wrote: ??because as he is, so also are we in this world?? fear has to do with punishment love gives us confidence love perfected WITH us...interesting word choice...WITH we love because he first loved us - my blog post I promised to link to Take the next step of meditating on the passage and the words and phrases that jumped out at you - my thoughts included: It's all about abiding - 1 John 4:15-16 My love is perfected for what purpose? - 1 John 4:17 Chasing cross-references - 1 John 3:1, 2 Peter 2 God's perfect love provides relationship and rescue What does "perfect" really mean? - John Piper Sermon I am perfectly loved to love perfectly The next step of responding in prayer The final step of contemplation in God's presence (AKA be quiet and listen)   If you don't hold the conviction that you are perfectly loved, let's start there. But if you walk in that freedom, it is so that your love will be perfected to love others.   More Than a Song Playlist Additional Resources Lyrics - NewReleaseToday.com My new favorite Bible Study Software - Logos Bible Software Affiliate Link This Week's Challenge Take these five steps of Lectio Divina and contemplate 1 John 4:15-19. Prepare in quietness, praying and asking God to help you connect to Him. Read the passage carefully, slowly, repetitively, and even aloud. Meditate on the passage, and don't be afraid to log your thoughts. Respond in prayer and then sit in God's presence, listening for His response.
