The Dharma Gate Buddhist College, Hungary

Dear Sir or Madam,

Let us call your attention to the special programmes of our Summer School at the Dharma Gate Buddhist College.

The Dharma Gate Buddhist College is organizing an international summer school in Budapest. Every year we invite renowned exponents of Buddhist thought and practice to teach their particular traditions. Teachers and students are welcome from all over the world.

Regarding the programme please look at our poster in attachement and our website:

The graph below shows sunspot numbers around the last Full Moon Meditation day on May 4th, 2012.

There were no planetary alignments on the Meditation day. Sunspot number dropped a week before the Meditation day and started to rise a week after. There were no sunspot numbers below 79 since April 17th. Each planetary alignment indicated increased sunspot numbers a little bit. So the graph has several ups and downs. A decrease of approximately 45% from the highest sunspot number of 138.

Dear Meditators and Everyone in Oregon,

WARNING!

On April 24 2012, Moon and Venus will be conjunct, Venus is close to earth, and Mars and Venus are also heliocentrically aligning, so there will be both a sunspot number increase and an extra strong geomagnetic fluctuation. There is a strong correlation between these particular planetary alignments, and earthquakes off the Oregon Coast in the Coos Bay area.

JUNE 27th

(From The Dynamic Solar System Diagram software)

Earth, and Mars align and it is a full Moon. This occurs about every two years and this year Mercury and Venus align as well.

Vajra Guru World Peace Ceremony will be celebrated from 17th April to 6th May 2012, in the region Goli (Solukhumbu), in the Himalayas of Nepal at a height of 3,100 metres. The purpose of this event is to recite 11,000,000 times the Vajra Guru Mantra for the benefit of all beings. More than 500 lamas from all Tibetan lineages will attend and also His Eminence Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche has already confirmed his attendance to guide the puja.

(THE LOCUST POSE)

In this asana, the body, lying flat on the abdomen, is made to assume, by raising the head and the trunk, a pose which resembles an irritated cobra (Bhujanga). The main importance of this pose lies in the curving of the spine backwards. To maintain the activity of youth even at an advanced age, the spine must be kept supple and elastic. As age advances the muscles of the back get stiffened and lose their elasticity.

(THE TOPSY-TURVY POSE)

There is a natural tendency for an accumulation of fat in middle age. Sedentary occupations, the intake of more food than necessary, defective elimination, a disturbed metabolism of the body and want of exercise—all these attendant consequences of middle age add stealthily to our weight by an unconscious deposit of fat in our tissues. Within normal limits this is allowable but an excessive deposit of fat is certainly detrimental to health. It soon proves itself to be a drag on the body and demands greater and greater muscular effort to move the latter.
