“Through him, She…”

Posted on November 29, 2015 by treadmarkz

I am finally reading the “Gospel of Ramakrishna” which I picked up over the summer. Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa was a Sanatana Dharmist in the truest sense I can think of. He tested every path for himself: From Daulism to Advaita, … Continue reading →

The Quantum Album: 4. Live Die Repeat

Posted on November 25, 2015 by treadmarkz

I watched the Tom Cruise action flick “Live Die Repeat” with my wife this weekend which doesn’t have a thing to do with the Quantum Physics theme of the last few posts, but it sort of set of a chain … Continue reading →

The Quantum Album: 3: Timespace of the Subatomic Flea

Posted on November 20, 2015 by treadmarkz

One of the more – oh I don’t know – mystical elements of Quantum Physics is the idea that “time” is a “dimension” just like the three others we are familiar with. And this doesn’t really relate a lot to … Continue reading →

The Quantum Album: 2. Live Metal

Posted on November 19, 2015 by treadmarkz

Coming from a Catholic background it is hard to conceptualize the Great Beyond as not a place where “I” go when “I” die and “I” enjoy everything “I” enjoyed in life forever and ever amen, etc. Over the years I … Continue reading →

The Quantum Album: 1. Layers

Posted on November 19, 2015 by treadmarkz

In the near future, a series of posts will be titled similarly to this one. This is to indicate that they are intended as part of a “series” all inspired by reading I’ve done and meditation I have done on … Continue reading →

Vs. III – Reincarnation vs. Rebirth

Posted on November 16, 2015 by treadmarkz

This one does not hold as much immediate import on a day-to-day basis as the last two posts do as far as I am concerned. Because (1) it has to do with transmigration, a subject that, to most, cannot be … Continue reading →

Eat It With Your Mouth

Posted on July 10, 2015 by treadmarkz

by Aranyakananda My friend referred to in the last post has a handful of verbal eccentricities. In short, he’s an unusual bloke in the best possible way. One thing that stands out is that when he offers you a piece … Continue reading →

Vishvarupa and the Probability Waves

Posted on October 12, 2014 by treadmarkz

by Aranyakananda The title of this post is not my fictional band’s name. It is about a theory put forth in a very unique book I’ve just finished reading, called “The Yoga of Time Travel” by Fred Alan Wolf, Ph.D. … Continue reading →

Reflections

Posted on October 8, 2014 by treadmarkz

by Aranyakananda Last night gave us a rare opportunity to see a total lunar eclipse, which turned the mood blood-red for the second time this year. To misquote Peter Noone, I “don’t know much about astronomy, but I do know” … Continue reading →

Rathangapani – Life Upon the Wheel

Posted on July 31, 2014 by treadmarkz

by Aranyakananda Just a note to avoid any confusion. This blog used to be called “Rolling with Vishnu.” Since the change in name and a possible change in appearance/layout, I wouldn’t want to lose connections I have made with regular … Continue reading →
