War were declared. For the second month in a row, the Galactic Council has gone rogue and tied our two poll options. So, for this month, we're just doing one of them and I guess we'll do the other later or something. So for now, here's Matt and Hunter improvising a scenario mode for Twilight Imperium, a la Alliance mode or the Shard of the Throne scenario from TI3. Is it chaotic? Yes. Is it playable? I make no promises. We also cheat a little and talk about an additional scenario we intend to do for this year's Holiday Spectacular! Music provided by Ben Prunty.

In this interview Ben takes us on a deep dive into the theory, practice, and scholarship of coitus reservatus as a Tantric religious practice.

In this episode I am once again joined by Dr Ben Joffe, anthropologist and scholar practitioner of Tibetan Buddhism. This episode is the third part of a series in which we explore Ben’s PhD dissertation about the ngakpa of the Himalayas, or as Ben calls them ‘wizards and socially engaged yogis’. In this episode we explore the realms of gender and sexual orientation, in both textual and social contexts. Ben discusses the complex situation of female spiritual practitioners in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, looking at terms such as ‘khandroma’, ‘dakini’, and more. We learn about the role of the sangyum, or sexual consort, and find out why Ben’s teacher and co-author Dr Nida Chenagtsang dedicated their book on sexual yoga to abuse victims, particularly those who have been abused in religious contexts. And finally we discuss the heteronormative / heterosexual perspective of traditional tantric texts, and hear Ben’s thoughts on how to practice sexual yoga in other orientations. … Video version: https://www.guruviking.com/ep52-dr-ben-joffe-3-dakinis-consorts-beyond-heteronormativity/ Audio version of this podcast also available on iTunes and Stitcher – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast’. … Topics include: 0:00 - Intro 1:08 - Ngakma, dakinis, and female practitioners of Tibetan Buddhism 15:55 - The dakini in traditional and new-age contexts 25:52 - Thoughts on the tantric prohibition against disparaging women 34:31 - The role of the sangyum (tantric consort) 51:52 - Sex with the tantric guru vs Western ethical trends 1:20:30 - Thoughts on practice of sexual yoga in contexts other than the heteronormative … Ngakpa series with Dr Ben Joffe: - https://www.guruviking.com/ep44-dr-ben-joffe-ngakpa-the-occult-and-anthropology/ - https://www.guruviking.com/ep48-dr-ben-joffe-2-siddhi-samaya-and-duels-of-magick/ - https://www.guruviking.com/ep52-dr-ben-joffe-3-dakinis-consorts-beyond-heteronormativity/ Ben’s dissertation - https://pqdtopen.proquest.com/doc/2335180529.html?FMT=ABS&fbclid=IwAR3bXYiUmC6YcOgR09-GuSiC_UwwXYuTcLJ-kce_tI3-8e-smZS99wy1HMY To find out more about Ben, visit: - https://perfumedskull.com/ - http://www.skypressbooks.com/ For more interviews, videos, and more visit: - www.guruviking.com Music ‘Deva Dasi’ by Steve James

This episode is the second part of a series in which we explore Ben’s PhD dissertation on the ngakpa of the Himalayas, or as Ben calls them ‘wizards and socially engaged yogis’. In the previous episode, we met the scholar, exploring Ben’s life as well as looking at his research methodology. In this episode we begin by defining the ngakpa, both in terms of traditional definitions as well as how the ngakpa exist and function today. We explore the various tantric vows associated with the highest yoga tantra yidam empowerments, including common misinterpretations about samaya, and how hair and clothing styles are often used as on outer expression of inner or secret principles. We look at how ngakpa develop their magical powers (siddhi), why they have often been viewed with suspicion by the religious and state authorities, and finally Ben recounts a story of a magical duel between sorcerers over local occult jurisdiction. … Video version: https://www.guruviking.com/ep48-dr-ben-joffe-2-siddhi-samaya-and-duels-of-magick/ Audio version of this podcast also available on iTunes and Stitcher – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast’. … Topics include: 0:00 - Intro 1:07 - Who are the ngakpa? 23:58 - Tantric vows and the complex issue of samaya 54:22 - How ngakpa develop and use magical powers (siddhi) 1:09:18 - Ngakpa Yeshe Dorje’s magical duel with local sorcerers … Ngakpa series with Dr Ben Joffe: - https://www.guruviking.com/ep44-dr-ben-joffe-ngakpa-the-occult-and-anthropology/ - https://www.guruviking.com/ep48-dr-ben-joffe-2-siddhi-samaya-and-duels-of-magick/ Ben’s dissertation - https://pqdtopen.proquest.com/doc/2335180529.html?FMT=ABS&fbclid=IwAR3bXYiUmC6YcOgR09-GuSiC_UwwXYuTcLJ-kce_tI3-8e-smZS99wy1HMY To find out more about Ben, visit: - https://perfumedskull.com/ - http://www.skypressbooks.com/ For more interviews, videos, and more visit: - www.guruviking.com Music ‘Deva Dasi’ by Steve James

Es wurden zwei heterogene Patientenkollektive mit unterschiedlichem onkologischen Therapieansatz - Strahlentherapie allein vs. Radiochemotherapie - bzgl. ihrer Lebensqualität, ihrer medizinischen und soziodemografischen Daten miteinander verglichen. Hierbei zeigte sich, dass die Patienten mit einer Radiochemotherapie älter waren, einen niedrigeren Karnofsky-Index hatten und sich in einem fortgeschritteneren Krankheitsstadium (bzgl. der TNM-Klassifikation) befanden. Zudem wurden sie zu ca. 90% stationär behandelt. Patienten mit einer Strahlentherapie allein wurden hingegen in einem annähernd ausgeglichenen Verhältnis stationär und ambulant behandelt und zeigten einen sig. höheren Anteil an weiblichen Patientinnen. Bzgl der soziodemografischen Daten fand sich nur ein geringer Unterschied beim höchsten Schulabschluß. Trotz der unterschiedlichen Ausgangssituation fanden sich nur geringe Unterschiede in der Lebensqualität beider Gruppen. So waren die Patienten mit Radiochemotherapie etwas höher belastet (FBK), hatten phasenweise (zu Ti2) höhere Depressionswerte (SDS) und zeigten zu Ti2 und Ti3 ein geringeres körperliches Wohlbefinden (FACT-G). In den Fragen zum Betreuungsbedarf (BB) fanden wir bei diesen Patienten auch ein verstärktes Interesse für eine pflegerische Betreuung zu Hause. Keine Unterschiede zwischen beiden Gruppen sahen wir in der Lebenszufriedenheit (FLZ), in der Krankheitsverarbeitung (FKV) und in der sozialen Unterstützung (SSS) der Patienten. Physische Parameter wie der Karnofsky-Index konnten also nicht ohne weiteres als Maß für die Lebensqualität von Patienten genommen werden, da hohe Werte hierbei nicht zwingend mit einer hohen Lebensqualität korrelierten und vice versa (Mackworth et al. 1992). Zudem wurde von Patienten die Toxizität einer Hochdosispolychemotherapie nicht unisono mit einer geringeren Lebensqualität gleichgesetzt (Coates 1987, Richards 1992). Trotzdem fanden sich in der Literatur auch Hinweise auf den Einfluß medizinischer Parameter beispielsweise auf die Krankheitsverarbeitung (Buddeberg 1996, Faller et al. 1997) oder die soziale Unterstützung (Dakof und Tailor 1990, Ell et al. 1992). Die Lebensqualität der Patienten mit einer kombinierten Radiochemotherapie war insgesamt nicht schlechter zu bewerten als die der Vergleichsgruppe.
