Dissertation Advisor: Parimal G. Patil Benjamin Luke Williams ABHINAVAGUPTA’S PORTRAIT OF GURU: REVELATION AND RELIGIOUS AUTHORITY IN KASHMIR ABSTRACT This dissertation aims to recover a model of religious authority that placed great importance upon individual gurus who were seen to be indispensable to the process of revelation. This person-centered style of religious authority is implicit in the teachings and identity of the scriptural sources of the Kulam!rga, a complex of traditions that developed out of more esoteric branches of tantric "aivism. For convenience sake, we name this model of religious authority a “Kaula idiom.” The Kaula idiom is contrasted with a highly influential notion of revelation as eternal and authorless, advanced by orthodox interpreters of the Veda, and other Indian traditions that invested the words of sages and seers with great authority. -

Zen Heart Sangha Jikido Schema Sesshin
Zen Heart Sangha Jikido schema Sesshin Als Jikido heb je tot taak om de zendo te beheren, de meditatie volgens het schema gaande te houden en vooral om de aanwezigen in staat te stellen zich helemaal aan hun beoefening te wijden zonder zich met andere dingen bezig te hoeven houden. Je stelt je beoefening dus voor een groot deel ten dienste van de anderen. Je beoefening als Jikido is, om je zo veel mogelijk bewust te zijn van de deelnemers en van de gang van zaken in de zendo. Je richt je op het welzijn van de deelnemers en op wat er gaande is in de zendo en neemt daar ook mede de verantwoordelijkheid voor. Je bent niet alleen verantwoordelijk voor de zendo, je bent ook de gastheer/vrouw in de zendo en je belichaamt het praktisch functioneren van Zazen. Je bent de persoonlijke expressie van het niet-persoonlijke, altijd klaar om te handelen naar gelang de situatie vergt. Je doet gewoon wat gedaan moet worden vanuit een milde, open, responsieve staat van zijn. Als Jikido zorg je ervoor dat je op tijd in de zendo bent. Je regelt de verlichting, de temperatuur en de ventilatie, en checkt eventueel of het altaar op orde is (bloemen, kaars, wierookbrander, wierookstaafjes). Je volgt nauwkeurig het tijdschema zonder inflexibel te zijn. Je zoekt op eigen initiatief de leraar of de Jisha op om het schema up to date te houden en je wordt door de leraar ook zo goed mogelijk op de hoogte gehouden van eventuele veranderingen. Eerste zitperiode 0700 zazen (40m zen - 10m kinhin - 30m zen - 10m kinhin - 30m zen) 0630 Wekken. -

The form that we use in the zendo and for Zen ceremonies is an important part of our practice. Ceremony, from the Latin meaning 'to cure,' acts as a reminder of how much there is outside of our own personal concerns and allows us to reconnect with the profundity of life and to show our appreciation of it. Form is a vehicle you can use for your own realisation rather than something you want to make fit your own views. To help with this it is useful to remember that the structure though fixed is ultimately empty. Within meditation and ceremony form facilitates our moving physically and emotionally from our usual outward looking personal concerns to the inner work of realisation and change. -

Jikido Takasaki, a Study on the Ratnagotravibhaga (Uttaratantra)
Jikido Takasaki, A Study on the Ratnagotravibhaga (Uttaratantra) Johannes Rahder Professor of Yale University Jikido Takasaki, A study on the Ratnagotravibhaga (Uttaratantra), being a Treatise on the Tathagatagarbha Theory of Mahayana Buddhism, including a critical Introduction, a Synopsis of the text, a Translation from the original Sanskrit text, in comparison with its Tibetan & Chinese versions, critical Notes (more than 2000), Appendixes and Indexes. 13+ 439 pages. Serie Orientale Roma Vol. 33. Roma, Istituto Italiano per it Medio ed Estremo Oriente, 1966. In this monumental work Dr. Takasaki made a major contribution to our knowledge of a Buddhist monistic, absolutistic, eternalistic, subs- tantialistic philosophical system, which Erich Frauwallner (Professor at the Univ. of Vienna) in his book "Philosophie des Buddhismus" p. 255-264 (Berlin, Akademie Verlag 1958, 436 pages) called "Die Schule Saramatis", dat- ed in the middle of the third century and placed in an intermediate position between the relativistic Madhyamaka and idealistic Yogacara systems. Frauwallner, whose above listed sourcebook of Buddhist philo- sophy is not mentioned in Takasaki's book, brought the Mahayanasra- ddhotpada-sastra (Kishinron) into close association with: the Ratnagotra- vibhaga because they share both the Matrix (Garbha) theory (Takasaki p. 53). Takasaki's annotated and well indexed English translation owes a great deal to E. E. Obermiller's English translation from the Tibetan version, published in Acta Orientalia ninth volume (1931) p. 81-306. Ho- wever, the late E. E. Obermiller (lifespan: 1901-1935) did not know the Sanskrit original, published in Patna in 1950, and could not read the -421- Jikido Takasaki, A Study on the Ratnagotravibhaga (J.
