World of Shallowness and Emptiness

Suffering in Buddhism and its evocation can be understood only when Human experience of world renders every outcome of its in unsatisfactory manner, slowly one understands the weariness this Samsara is about, never to cease never to end, all worldly happiness becomes nothing but source of enduring misery.
This gives rise to disgust with world, a world which has no everlasting meaning,no permanence, a mere shadow of whatever one terms as happiness. this shadow of happiness fades away replaced by grief

When one is overcome by such disgust, a dispassion arises in them, this dispassion towards everything this samsara offers, the revulsion inside towards Worldly conditions, its shallowness allows one to see things as thy are,which is world of temporal ,a world of sickness , a world of morbidity

Known as Nibbida Nana or knowledge arising from such strong disgust, one renounces everything(Nekhamma or NisKrama) and he stops participating in worldly goals ,so as to finally become a renunicator a Sramana, the one who strives towards Immobility and Stasis a condition where no Misery,no suffering due to such Worldly condition would arise, the cessation in form of dispassion and calming down all fears and greed, avarice, jealousy, a stillness of mind like water


In state of dispassion one can evoke such Gatha or Prose:

Look at the World of Palatial Mansions, Opulence, world of thrones, World of Crowns.
This is World ,a society full of enemies of beings( and humanity)
World which adheres to tradition of hunger of money and greediness
Even if one possess such world then to what end?

Every body inflicted with pain, each soul thirsty for love
every glance here looks confused,the heart rendered with unhappiness
Is this world or World of Confusion and Insanity
Even if one possess such world then to what end?

World where ones existence is reduced to like that of a toy.
a City where only the dead seem to exist
World where Death is easy to come rather than Life
Even if one possess such world then to what end?

World where bodies adorn themselves as a commodity
Where love happens  by transforming itself into scale of trade
Even if one possess such world then to what end? 

World where humanity is lost, where human ceases to be human
where loyalty,trust has lost it meaning and friendship but a lie
where Love has no appreciation,lost in darkness of greed
Even if one possess such world then to what end? 

Burn ,Burn down this world, blow and rip this world apart
Remove such world of thankless soul,odiousness out of my sight,
This world has always been yours , rejoice and make merry in it
Though,Even if one possess such world then to what end?

Indo-Muslim Culture in Hyderabad: Old City Neighborhoods in the 19th Century

Hyderabad city’s culture was Indo-Muslim or Mughlai, terms that need definition here. I use Indo-Muslim in preference to Islamic, Indo-Persian, Persianate, or Islamicate. I prefer Indo-Muslim to the other four commonly-used alternatives because, first, Muslim rather than Islamic emphasizes a civilizational and not a religious culture (Islamicate has the same meaning but probably not to the general reader). Certainly Hyderabad was not an Islamic state: the Nizams never tried to impose Islamic law or to convert people.Second, IndoMuslim puts the emphasis on the Indian location, although undeniably the Bahmani sultanate in the Deccan from the mid-fourteenth century, its five successor Deccani sultanates (Bijapuri, Golconda, Bidar, Berar, and Ahmednagar) from the early sixteenth century, and the Nizams, starting as Mughal governors after the conquests of Bijapuri and Golconda by the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb in 1686 and 1687, modeled their court culture on that of Persia. I use the term Mug...

Skull Imagery and Skull Magic in the Yoginī Tantras

The Buddhist tantras constitute a unique class of Buddhist literature. While developing from earlier trends in Buddhist thought and practice, they also constituted a serious challenge to Buddhist identity, largely due to the fact that many of them contain passages that appear to transgress the tenets of Buddhist morality.1 Tantric literature also departed, gradually, from the rhetorical norms of Mahayana Buddhism. While early tantras maintained the rhetorical style of the Mahayana sutras, later tantras, and most notably the Yoginī tantras, radically departed from this style.2 This essay will explore one small facet of the vast array of unusual elements that can be found in this literature, namely, the image of the skull, as well as the use of skulls in tantric ritual. Like other elements, this deployment of skulls in the tantras was disquieting to some, evoking as it does the uncanny atmosphere of the charnel ground. Through this exploration, I will argue that skulls are multifaceted...

Nature of Patisambhidamagga

The Patisambhidāmagga is insistently practical it expounds the way or path of 'discrimination' in its various a spects and tries to show how understanding can be achieved in an empirical sense instead of theorizing it It talks about what happens and how does "Nana"(knowledge)  happen when someone understand or discriminates the actuality or truth which is real in its aspects as taught by Buddha The theory is of course necessary,the understanding or insight,and is  included in this path,as well as the practice in the limited sense of concentration,the calming Jhana a process to Samatha . The pair ,insight(vipassana) and Calming(Samatha) must therefore be coupled(Yuganandha) and function together ,which are presented as fundamental in Buddhist texts , as even mentioned in Anguttara Nikaya Enlightenment as Ananda said ( which is mentioned in detailed in Yuganandha suttanta in Anguttara Nikaya) ,requires both Samatha and Vipassana  and no one has attained Enlightenment wi...
