Photo Essay: Burning Man Remixed

See Burning Man from a utterly opposite point-of-view.

Burning Man means something opposite to every individual who decides to knowledge in this city, this world. This was my first year during Burning Man, though we had seen design on design from during slightest a final 8 years. Of course, cinema can never do probity to most any pleasing place, but it seemed to me that cinema do a slightest probity to Burning Man. There seemed no way to constraint a crowd of movements, events, thoughts as well as feelings function during any since moment in a two-dimensional format.

So we was both moved as well as astounded as we began to see some of a art my friend, photographer Bhaskar Banerji, came up with from this years burn. He was means to mangle free from two-dimensionality as well as in to something that feels a bit closer to being there disharmony as well as clarity during a same time.

I hope we suffer these photos as much as we did, as well as that if we havent been, that we will have a improved clarity of a essence of Black Rock City.

How meditation relates to happiness

Image
Meditation leads to mindfulness Studies point out how valuable meditating can be to overall well-being. PEOPLE HAVE BEEN meditating for thousands of years, but it seems only recently that its gaining credibility by the scientific community. The shame is that many wont even give things a second thought unless some researcher or scientist proves its benefits, choosing to ignore the wisdom of experience. An article at Forbes discusses research done that correlates meditation and happiness . First, a Harvard University study has shown that wandering minds are an attribute of unhappy people. 2250 volunteers (ages 18-88, from a wide range of socioeconomic backgrounds and occupations) were used in the study they were contacted at random intervals by the researchers and asked what they were currently doing and what they were actually thinking about. almost half of the time (46.9%) people were thinking about something else.

Rocking beats for peace on an Israeli tank

At the start of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, heres a little reminder for peace. AT SUNDOWN today Rosh Hashanah begins. In Jewish liturgy its described as the day of judgment and the day of remembrance. During services there is a phrase repeated several times: On Rosh Hashanah it is written and on Yom Kippur it is sealed. I remember as a kid listening along and having the image of God basically searching through each persons deeds for the year as if written in a ledger.

Its just that Ive always felt a lot ...
