  • ON HUMAN PRESENCE INSIDE the REPRESENTATION SPACE of the PAINT BRUSH Aurora Corominas
    ON HUMAN PRESENCE INSIDE THE REPRESENTATION SPACE OF THE PAINT BRUSH Aurora Corominas [email protected] SUMMARY First the museum video and then the cinema have explored human presence immersed in pictorial material. In this article we appraise the narrative ideas of two films based on the new readabilities which have emerged from the synthetic image: episode number 5, The Crows from the film Dreams by Akira Kurosawa (1990), and What Dreams May Come by Vincent Ward (1998). Both films use the language of fables to structure their transgression against nature and both substantially broaden the viewer’s horizons of expectation, so that he sees the particular gaze the artist expressed in the pictorial originals surpassed. KEY WORDS Film aesthetics, Comparative film, Language of fables, Artist’s gesture, Film and painting ARTICLE In the second half of the 1980s, the Musée d’Orsay in Paris conceived a series of audiovisual productions to attract different kinds of audience and to publicise its collection beyond the context of the museum. That meant that they set out to show the audiovisuals not only far from the presence of the works, but also from the official discourse of the museum, which brought greater freedom when it came to finding new approaches to those same works. Sociological and statistical surveys indicated that in those years only 30% of French people went to museums, although it was a golden age in terms of the number of visits to cultural centres. Moreover, the same surveys revealed that regular visits to museums and watching television were two socially opposed practices.

  • On the Kama-Loka and Devachan
    The Soul's Journey through Life and Death – Part 4 Excerpts from: Key to Theosophy On The Kama-Loka and Devachan On The Fate of the Lower "Principles" ENQUIRER. You spoke of Kama-loka, what is it? THEOSOPHIST. When the man dies, his lower three principles leave him forever; i.e., body, life, and the vehicle of the latter, the astral body or the double of the living man. And then, his four principles — the central or middle principle, the animal soul or Kama- rūpa, with what it has assimilated from the lower Manas, and the higher triad find themselves in Kama-loka. The latter is an astral locality1, the limbus2 of scholastic theology, the Hades3 of the ancients, and, strictly speaking, a locality only in a relative sense. It has neither a definite area nor boundary, but exists within subjective space; i.e., is beyond our sensuous perceptions. Still it exists, and it is there that the astral eidolons4 of all the beings that have lived, animals included, await their second death. For the animals it comes with the disintegration and the entire fading out of their astral particles to the last. For the human eidolon it begins when the Ātma-Buddhi-Manasic triad is said to "separate" itself from its lower principles, or the reflection of the ex-personality, by falling into the Devachanic state. 1 Locality - The fact or quality of having position in space. 2 Limbus - (Latin. for "edge," "fringe," e.g. of a garment), a theological term denoting the border of hell, where dwell those who, while not condemned to torture, yet are deprived of the joy of heaven.

  • Theosophical Articles and Notes
    THEOSOPHICAL ARTICLES AND NOTES Reprinted from Original Sources THE THEOSOPHY CO. Los Angeles 1985 ISBN 0-938998-29-3 PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Scanned & edited by volunteers at the United Lodge of Theosophists, London, UK. Edited Oct 2020 & April 2021 FOREWORD The articles in this volume come from a variety of sources. They are presented here for their intrinsic worth to students of Theosophy. They are grouped according to the place of first appearance —in the Theosophist, Lucifer, the Path, and other sources. Within these groupings they are arranged chronologically. Internal evidence strongly suggests that some of them have an “adept” origin, and they are so presented. One or two articles unintentionally omitted from Theosophical Articles by H.P.B. and W.Q.J. are included. Other contributions, not identified as to author, are of a quality which makes it appropriate to reprint them here. Thus there are articles, replies and notes which appeared in the Theosophist and Lucifer, also material by Damodar K. Mavalankar, and two articles signed “Murdhna Joti” from the Path. Cicero’s “Vision of Scipio” is included by reason of H.P.B.’s briefly informative footnotes. Judge’s “Notes on the Bhagavad Gita” is a Path article which was not a part of the book of that name. Finally, there is material taken from A.P. Sinnett’s The Occult World, from the notes of Robert Bowen, a pupil of H.P.B., and also from notes found in the effects of Countess Wachtmeister, apparently taken down from dictation by H.P.B.

  • Art. XIV.— Buddhist Saint Worship
    218 ART. XIV.—Buddhist Saint Worship. By ARTHUR LILLIE, M.R.A.S. A STUDENT of Buddhism cannot proceed very far in his inquiry without being confronted with a tremendous contra- diction. Perhaps I may be allowed here to speak from personal experience. I read Le Bouddha et sa Religion, by M. Barthelemy St.-Hilaire, and one or two well-known works; and soon learnt that annihilation (sunyata) was the lot of the Saint when he had reached the Bodhi or Highest Wisdom, and freed himself from the cycle of new births. I then came across Schlagintweit's Buddhism in Tibet, which contains a sort of litany called The Buddhas of Confession. In it is the following passage :— " I adore the Buddha Sa-la'i-rgyal-po. Once uttering this name shall purify from all sins of theft, robbery, and the like." This puzzled me. This being was a Buddha. In consequence he had suffered, or enjoyed, complete annihila- tion. Why then should the pronouncing the name Sa-la'i- rgyal-po purify from all sins of " theft, robbery, and the like ? " Then I remembered that in old religions very holy names like I.A.O., A.U.M., etc., had often got to be thought more potent than the God himself. I mention all this to show that I am not at all surprised at people clinging to the idea that the Bodhi in the earliest Buddhism meant annihila- tion in spite of the strong evidence that can be brought against it. I myself for some time did the same.

  • The Ocean of Theosophy
    of An Introduction to the writings of H. P. Blavatsky Outlines the broad scope and principles of Theosophy William Q. Judge In the early s William Q. Judge recognized the need for a literature on theosophy that could be readily under- stood by all. He responded with a series of newspaper articles that were soon published in book form as The Ocean of Theosophy. Providing a concise yet comprehensive survey of the basic teach- ings, it clarifies such topics as reincar- nation and karma; the sevenfold nature of man, earth, and the universe; after- death states and cyclic evolution; sages, adepts, and the world’s religions; psy- chic phenomena, spiritualism, the pitfalls of pseudo-occultism; and many more. Here is knowledge based upon evidence and experience, written with brevity and depth. W Q. J was born in Dublin, Ireland, on April , . His family emi- grated in to New York where he specialized in corporate law (New York State Bar, ). A co-founder with H. P. Blavatsky and Henry S. Olcott of the Theosophical Society in , he later became General Secretary of its American Section and Vice President of the international Society. Writing and lecturing from coast to coast, he made theosophy known and respected throughout America. He died in New York City on March , Cover Design: Patrice Hughes In the Author’s Words . Just as the ancients taught, so does Theosophy: that the course of evolution is the drama of the soul and that Nature exists for no other purpose than the soul’s experience. The Theosophist agrees with Professor Huxley in the assertion that there must be beings in the universe whose intelligence is as much beyond ours as ours exceeds that of the black beetle, and who take an active part in the government of the natural order of things.

SUBMISSION OF THESIS TO CHARLES STURT UNIVERSITY: Degree of Master of Arts (Honours) CANDIDATE’S NAME: Leonard Aitken QUALIFICATIONS HELD: Degree of Master of Arts Practice (Visual Arts), Charles Sturt University, 2011 Degree of Bachelor of Arts (Visual Arts), Charles Sturt University, 1995 FULL TITLE OF THESIS: Time Unbound: An Exploration of Eternity in Twentieth-Century Art. MONTH AND YEAR OF SUBMISSION: June 2014 Time Unbound: An Exploration of Eternity in Twentieth- Century Art. SUBMISSION OF THESIS TO CHARLES STURT UNIVERSITY: Degree of Master of Arts (Honours) ABSTRACT The thesis examines contemporary works of art which seek to illuminate, describe or explore the concept of ‘eternity’ in a modern context. Eternity is an ongoing theme in art history, particularly from Christian perspectives. Through an analysis of artworks which regard eternity with intellectual and spiritual integrity, this thesis will explain how the interpretation of ‘eternity’ in visual art of the twentieth century has been shaped. It reviews how Christian art has been situated in visual culture, considers its future directions, and argues that recent forms are expanding our conception of this enigmatic topic. In order to establish how eternity has been addressed as a theme in art history, the thesis will consider how Christian art has found a place in Western visual culture and how diverse influences have moulded the interpretation of eternity. An outline of a general cosmology of eternity will be treated and compared to the character of time in the material world.
