  • The Arts As Portals for Understanding "The Other"
    Athens Journal of Humanities & Arts - Volume 3, Issue 3 – Pages 159-170 The Arts as Portals for Understanding "The Other" By Barbara Pemberton Anthropological studies show the polarization of "sacred and profane" has emerged autonomously in all human societies. It follows that all religious traditions have identified special portals through which adherents may delve into what they have set apart as sacred. These portals include inspiring natural locations, sacred texts, architecture, and the fine arts. When encountered, these portals elicit powerful emotions – they speak to us and foster dialogue. This paper will encourage introducing students to the study of other religious traditions by way of sacred portals, and in particular, the use of the arts to empathetically understand and engage "the other." Even though what is held to be sacred to one person may be a source of trepidation to another we must take the time to instill the value of, and the respect due, all that is considered sacred, especially that which is held sacred by "the other." Introduction Humans are innately religious and artistic. We sense that there is something beyond this material existence and we express both the search for and the experience of this "otherness" creatively. This makes the arts, both visual and performing, natural vehicles for the introduction and study of world religions. To illustrate, in this essay I will offer examples from the arts of a few faith traditions, beginning with recognizable symbols of each. It is hoped that these entry points into other beliefs will inspire the reader to further investigate the arts in world religions, so that what once seemed foreign, or "other," will become familiar, appreciated, and even enjoyed.

  • Mandala Discovery by Heather Plett
    Mandala Discovery By Heather Plett Welcome to 30 Days of Mandala Journaling! About mandalas Introduction “Mandala” is sanskrit for “circle”, “essence”, or “container”. It’s very simple really - any creative process that happens in circle can be referred to as a mandala. Is mandala-making an art form? It can be - many mandalas are beautiful works of art. More importantly, though, it is creative process that brings us closer to centre. Carl Jung, who used mandalas a lot in his psychotherapy work, once commented that it was reductive to refer to it as art. To call it art implies that the product is the only thing of value, when in reality, the process is more important than the product. The mandala is a reflection of nature & the universe. It is one of the ways in which humanity has sought to relate to and sum up the awesome universe of which we are part. Mandalas are cosmic diagrams - attempts to represent the essential elements of the macrocosm in an ordered, coherent manner. Mandalas are both simple and complex, and that’s what makes them fascinating. They are as simple as a circle and as complex as an intricate labyrinthian pathway to Spirit. Mandalas are meditation, ritual, therapy, art-making, and spiritual journeying. From many traditions Mandalas (or other related circle creative/spiritual processes) have evolved independently in many traditions all over the world. While all traditions use the circle as the basic container, what goes on inside and outside of that container can be vastly different. For some, every shape and colour has symbolic significance, whole for others the significance is found in the process, not the colours or shapes.

  • Tibetan Buddhism - Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Tibetan Buddhism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tibetan_Buddhism Tibetan Buddhism From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Tibetan Buddhism[1] is the extant form of the Pāla tradition of Buddhism, practiced historically in the Indian university of Nālanda and others.[2] Once known merely as the main religion of the Tibetan nation, it is now understood as the modern form of that predecessor, whose literature, once in Sanskrit, is now in Tibetan language. It is the body of Buddhist religious doctrine and institutions characteristic of Tibet, Mongolia, Tuva, Bhutan, Kalmykia and certain regions of the Himalayas, including northern Nepal, and India (particularly in Arunachal Pradesh, Ladakh, Dharamsala, Lahaul and Spiti in Himachal Pradesh, and Sikkim). It is the state religion of Bhutan.[3] It is also practiced in Mongolia and parts of Russia (Kalmykia, Buryatia, and Tuva) and Northeast China. Texts recognized as scripture and commentary are contained in the Tibetan Buddhist canon, such that Tibetan is a spiritual language of these areas. A Tibetan diaspora has spread Tibetan Buddhism to many Western countries, where the tradition has gained popularity.[4] Among its prominent exponents is the 14th Dalai Lama of Tibet. The number of its adherents is estimated to be between ten and twenty million.[5] Contents 1 Buddhahood 2 General methods of practice 2.1 Transmission and realization 2.2 Analytic meditation and fixation meditation 2.3 Devotion to a guru 2.4 Skepticism 2.5 Preliminary practices and approach to Vajrayāna 2.6 Esotericism 3 Native Tibetan developments 4 Study of tenet systems 5 Schools 6 Monasticism 6.1 Nyingma 6.2 Kagyu 6.3 Sakya 6.4 Gelug 7 Tibetan Buddhism in the contemporary world 8 Glossary of terms used 9 See also 10 Notes 11 References 12 Further reading 13 External links Buddhahood Tibetan Buddhism comprises the teachings of the three vehicles of Buddhism: the Foundational Vehicle, Mahāyāna, and Vajrayāna.

  • Tibetan Tourist Thangkas in the Kathmandu Valley
    Annnl.r ofTourism Research, Vol. 20, pp. 107-137, 1993 0160-7383/93 $6.00 + .OO Printed in the USA. All rights reserved. Copyright 0 1993 Pergamon Press Ltd. TIBETAN TOURIST THANGKAS IN THE KATHMANDU VALLEY Yael Bentor Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel Abstract: This case study of Tibetan tourist thangkas in the Kathmandu Valley stresses the historical and cultural background essential for under- standing the specific modes of commercialization of sacred art. The spe- cific circumstances under which the tourist thangka market developed led to the existence of an “intermediate audience” located between the “inter- nal” and “external audiences” typical of most tourist markets. This “inter- mediate audience,” while introducing a slight shift of emphasis in the purpose of thangkas, promotes an adherence to tradition which has had an effect even on the tourist outlets. The producers of thangkas for the tourist market in the Kathmandu Valley are predominantly non-Tibetans who stage the authenticity of their paintings. Keywords: tourist art, thangka, Tibet, Tibetan Buddhism, Nepal, Navajo sandpaintings. R&urn& Les thangkas touristiques tibttains de la vallte de Katmandou.

    The Sacred Circle in Tibetan and Navajo Cultures 1 Tibetan Kalachakra Sandpainting S.R. Joye The Sacred Circle in Tibetan and Navajo Cultures 2 The Sacred Circle East and West: Sandpainting in Tibetan and Navajo Cultures Submitted by Shelli Renee Joye A&C 5342 – Art and Shamanism Professor Mark Levy, Ph.D. J. F. Kennedy University Department of Arts & Consciousness Winter 2010 S.R. Joye The Sacred Circle in Tibetan and Navajo Cultures 3 “God is a circle whose center is everywhere and circumference nowhere.” Hermes Trismegistus The Sacred Circle Throughout history the circle has been consistently regarded both as an important metaphysical concept and symbol, as well as a practical object of aesthetic creation and shamanic, ritualistic, magical usage, often used to define an area that is special, that is sacred, that is protected. Accordingly numerous rituals using circles have evolved in the past throughout the world. Knowledge of these rituals is important for the shaman, for they offer a way to tap into the cumulated energy of all of these rituals carried out with focused consciousness in the past, through the performance of rituals in the present that have a multidimensional resonance, that is, which set up harmonically sympathetic vibrations bridging states of non-ordinary reality with ordinary reality to reveal states of extra-ordinary reality. This paper will focus on the use of the sacred circle in shamanic practices within two different cultures, the Amerindian Navajo culture and the Tibetan Buddhist culture, both of which have for many centuries and continue into the present day to create ritually efficacious magic circles using a technique known as sandpainting.

In 1928, Gropius left the Bauhaus, and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (188601969) eventually took over the directorship, moving the school to Berlin. Taking as his motto “ _________________ is more” and calling his architecture “skin and __________________,” the new Bauhaus director had already fully formed his aesthetic when he conceived a model for a glass skyscraper building in 1921. 2. One of Hitler’s first acts after coming to power was to close the Bauhaus in the year ________________. Many Bauhaus members came to the United States. Gropius and Breuer ended up at Harvard University. Mies van der Rohe moved to ______________________ and taught there. 3. The first and purest exponent of what became known as the International Style was the Swiss architect Charles-Edouard Jeanneret, who adopted his maternal grandfather’s name- Le Corbusier (1887-1965). An example of this style is his Villa Savoye. Its machine-planed smoothness of the unadorned surfaces, the slender ribbons of continuous ___________________________, and the buoyant lightness of the whole fabric all combine to reverse the effect of traditional country houses.
