Wisdom I will take with me the emptiness of my hands. What you do not have you find everywhere. ~ W.S. Merwin Two-time U.S. Poet Laureate W.S. Merwin’s 1967 book of poetry “The Lice” is one of his most beloved bodies of work. This quote from one of the book’s poems, “Provision,” offers up a concept from Merwin’s Buddhist beliefs: absence becoming presence. In this philosophy, the lack of one thing enables the existence of another; to actively miss something creates a new metaphysical realm in which they can exist. Merwin’s poem reminds us not to be discouraged by what we lack: Instead, we should look for what it can reveal about the present. Mary Live long and prosper

The 55-year-old, known to many as “Everest Man,” was guiding a group of Indian army officials up the mountain with Seven Summit Treks when he extended his record. The 31st feat comes 31 years after he summited the mountain for the first time; he’s made the trek roughly once per year since 1994 while guiding clients. ? “Kami Rita Sherpa needs no introduction,” Seven Summit Treks wrote on Instagram. “He is not just a national climbing hero, but a global symbol of Everest itself.” ? For Kami Rita, though, it’s just another day at the office: “I am glad for the record, but records are eventually broken,” he told AFP last May, after hitting 30 summits. “I am more happy that my climbs help Nepal be recognized in the world.” Together With Surfshark Say Goodbye to Annoying Ads and Trackers Ever opened your favorite website only to be hit with popups, autoplay videos, and ads that somehow know exactly what you’ve been Googling?

News Articles Shop Account The Way of the Eight Winds: The Return of an Ancient Belief System The Way of the Eight Winds is a spiritual path that recognizes and celebrates the plurality of the Cosmos and the creativity of Nature, of which we are part. The inner essence of all religions and spiritual ways is in the relationship of humans to the Cosmos. Usually, this takes the form of the adoration of some specific aspect of multivalent reality; this can be perceived in an infinite variety of different ways, described by different explanatory mythologies. The Way of the Eight Winds recognizes the essentially false nature of all dogma and doctrine and the destructive results of literalism. The sad limits of fundamentalism—the insistence on there being one and only one way, a literal interpretation of some time-bound and culture-bound writing—stand exposed when we contemplate the grand diversity and plurality of existence. Nature, on both her physical and spiritual levels, is infinitely diverse, ever-changing, flowing, never fixed. There is not just one sort of bird, one size of fruit, one cloud-form, one color of sunset, one type of soil, one crystalline shape, one form of wave, one size of star or galaxy. In the psychic realm of humanity, there is not just one language, one alphabet, one idea, one type of art, one form of music, one type of gameplay, one science, one spirituality. We live in a polytheistic, polyvalent, polycultural Cosmos, in eternal change and flow. The Way of the Eight Winds brings a mindful approach to our environment, both seen and unseen. It practices the essence of the indigenous European spiritual philosophy in contemporary form, taking it beyond the borders and limitations of dogmatism. Although it is expressed in the terminology and style of traditional spirituality from a northern-hemisphere perspective, it also recognizes that these universal principles underlie comparable ancient practices from other lands and cultures, which are mentioned where applicable. The essence of traditional ways, expressed mindfully in contemporary forms, brings wonderful possibilities of spectacle-free experience of human life. Alternative Viewpoints There are two fundamental philosophical viewpoints of human existence, contradictory to one another. The viewpoint with the greatest currency at present in developed countries is that human life is a finite phenomenon hemmed in by time, essentially random and meaningless. As long ago as the seventeenth century, the English utilitarian philosopher Thomas Hobbes (1588–1679) saw human society as potentially the war of all against all. In this viewpoint, human life is no more than a constant struggle, “nasty, brutish, and short.” Hobbes was writing at a time when traditional spirituality was questioned by the result of brutal, ruthless wars and new technical inventions, and the order of the world seemed to be disintegrating. It is clear that this grim and bleak view of existence underlies current materialist doctrines that promote the accumulation of power and wealth as the sole aim of human life. Continue reading...

Astronomy Picture of the Day Discover the cosmos! Each day a different image or photograph of our fascinating universe is featured, along with a brief explanation written by a professional astronomer. 2025 May 27 Zeta and Rho Ophiuchi with Milky Way Image Credit & Copyright: Ireneusz Nowak Explanation: Behold one of the most photogenic regions of the night sky, captured impressively. Featured, the band of our Milky Way Galaxy runs diagonally along the bottom-left corner, while the colorful Rho Ophiuchi cloud complex is visible just right of center and the large red circular Zeta Ophiuchi Nebula appears near the top. In general, red emanates from nebulas glowing in the light of excited hydrogen gas, while blue marks interstellar dust preferentially reflecting the light of bright young stars. Thick dust usually appears dark brown. Many iconic objects of the night sky appear, including (can you find them?) the bright star Antares, the globular star cluster M4, and the Blue Horsehead nebula. This wide field composite, taken over 17 hours, was captured from South Africa last June.
