			<description><![CDATA[ <p>So I have been using a prayer for my meditative practice recently.  This is a change for me since I have usually used just my breath during my meditation
sessions.  About a month ago I picked up a book by Eusawaran (spelling ?) that discusses a method he teaches in which prayers are used as ones fundamental
focus.
<br>
<br>
The prayer I use is about 50 words and I just say it to myself silently for about twenty minutes.

I mention this because I have noticed how it is helping my... ]]></description>

How to build a bigger brain

			<description><![CDATA[ Any thoughts on the difference between &quot;yoga meditation&quot; &amp; mindfullness/vipassana which comes from the Buddhist tradition? My best understanding
is that Patanjali is referring to a deep absorption process (getting into an altered state) and mindfullness is just being present &amp; investigating what is
happening right now. This seems much more practical to me. Thanks! ]]></description>

You are probably aware through news reports that a public health emergency has been declared in numerous countries because of an outbreak of swine flu virus.
The World Health Organization characterized the outbreak as &quot;serious.&quot; Researchers were still trying at the start of this week to determine how
easily the virus is transmitted from person to person, but it was too early to predict whether this outbreak will turn into a mild or serious epidemic.

<br>
<br>
Despite trawling through my collection of books on Mahamudra (Vajrayana traditions) and those on Vipassana (mostly Theravadin) I cannot seem to find any
difference in the main practices.
<br>
<br>
Allow me to explain - I am of the understanding that the Tibetan Mahamudra paths are seen as profound teachings often looked upon as lofty and only really for
those that have a deep understanding of Emptiness and certainly not for the &#39;beginner&#39;. Having said that... ]]></description>
