Re: Sex positive movement
The first sex positive movement was created by vatsyayana a Hindu sage around 2A.D. It is linked with tantrhism and vstsayana meant that sex should be applied with artha Darma to say meaningfully and phenomenally. According to his philosophy sex can be used to achieve a spiritual status by the acti...

Re: Sex positive movement
And we should check the The biggest butcher in history thread as an early warning against supporting certain ideas. http://www.dhammawheel.com/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=28461&p=406912&hilit=butchers#p406912 Not sure what you mean. But how I see it: Capitalism is how every economy works in re...

Silly questions about the chakras
Can someone give more backround on the Chakra that Mara uses to enter Mogallana. Anything will be ok. Are this the same Yoga charkras, if yes how can we close oalso the last chakra?

Re: Sex positive movement
In other words he doesn't really believe in Buddhism but engages in communist rabble rousing under the guise of "Buddhism." Oh? It's hard to imagine a rabble being very much roused by Prof. Pepper's cerebral blend of Marx according to Althusser, Freud according to Lacan, and the grace-bas...

Re: jhana with dxm
Dear fellow seekers, I want to bring a topic to the attention of this board which has apparently been discussed before: the attainment of jhana through drug use. I already know there are objections to this idea, so let me try to be as clear and straightforward and open as possible. First, the previ...

Re: What is the future of Dhamma Wheel
We have seen many Dhamma discussion groups and websites shut down after some time. This can be a great loss to the Dhamma community. Closure of access to insight is a good example. Thankfully the owner was kind enough to leave it as a open source. What is the future of Dhamma Wheel. Will one day we...

Re: Sex positive movement
This seems to be getting rather away from the topic and I'm getting lost. I couldn't see any relevance of the article that Binocular linked to the subject of this thread. Where did the article criticise asceticism? It seemed to be a critique of TB's views about atman, etc (which appear to represent...

Re: Sex positive movement
VERY low quality article, superficial at best, displays an outstanding hability to imagine stuff that TB never says, maybe is good for the creative industry, for salvation... no. I had actually contacted the author of this article and brought up my concerns that he is misrepresenting Thanissaro Bhi...
