All religions preach peace

To obtain real peace and happiness in this world one has simply to follow the path of ahimsa - nonviolence - which naturally is common to all the religions of the world. If we do not like to experience any pain or suffering of any kind, how can we expect any other creature - whether big or small - to feel otherwise? 

There is no better prayer or worship we can offer to Lord Buddha than being thoughtful, kind, compassionate and abstaining from taking the life of any fellow human being, animal, bird, fish or insect.

– Khyabje Chatral Rinpoche

Atisha said, “The best spiritual friend is one who attacks your hidden faults. The best instructions are the ones that hit those faults.”

 Don’t listen or study LIKE A POLITICIAN, clinging to your point of view or some party line. Who cares if you have studied great teachings in the past? What’s the point of studying the dharma for self-confirmation? As the great Indian teacher Atisha said, “The best spiritual friend is one who attacks your hidden faults. The best instructions are the ones that hit those faults.” • Don’t listen or study LIKE A MOVIE CRITIC, evaluating the language and style of the teacher rather than listening to the substance of what he or she teaches. You might be able to amuse your friends with some sharp criticism later on, but in the end you will pay a price. • Don’t listen or study LIKE A CONSUMER, picking and choosing among teachings and teachers the way you would choose detergent in the supermarket. All of the Buddha’s teachings present the truth and are worth studying and understanding. You might not know the value of a particular teaching at the time you hear it, but ten or twenty years from now, it might provide you with a critical piece of the puzzle. • Don’t listen or study LIKE AN ORPHAN, feeling too pathetic to be able to understand what is being taught. The dharma is about you, not some obscure points in calculus, so if you keep working at it, you will definitely understand. • Don’t listen or study LIKE A “DHARMA GROUPIE,” so infatuated with the messenger that you never get the message.
— Andy Karr, from “Contemplating Reality: A Practitioner's Guide to the View in Indo-Tibetan Buddhism”

The Truth About #Aleppo : Victory Tribute

The Hindenberg Was Sabotaged

The Hindenberg Was Sabotaged



There were 22 photographers present at 7 p.m. May 6, 1937 to film the Hindenburg's arrival (left.)  This seems like overkill for an event which had already occurred 20 times in the previous year at the same field without  incident.  So why would this typical New Jersey airship landing require 22 separate photographers, five of whom were newsreel photographers?

The Hindenburg was behind schedule by exactly 12 hours.  It was supposed to land at 7 am.  Both the captain and first officer admitted they were wary of a possible bomb attempt because of tensions with Germany.  Sabotage was a serious possibility in those days, yet it was not to be mentioned by the press after the "accident".

Everybody knows what supposedly happened.  But not one of the  photographers caught the actual "spark" that led to the "explosion".  There was plenty of footage of a large fireball above the airship with a portion of the outer skin opened up.  There was footage of the poor souls trying to get away from the burning wreckage. But no one caught the spark.

It was the most extraordinary "missed-the-shot" photographic blunder of all time.

HYDROGEN DOESN'T BURN

The biggest problem with the Hindenburg explosion scenario is  that Hydrogen, by itself, separated from oxygen as in a sealed gas cell (Hindenburg had 16 separate cells) does not burn.  Hydrogen and oxygen need to be combined stoichiometrically. You would take a sample of water, convert it into a gas thus composing two parts hydrogen to one part oxygen. This  burns with about seven times the amount of energy than an equal weight of petroleum.  But only pure hydrogen was in the Hindenburg.

Blatantly striking a match inside a hydrogen fuel cell would do nothing at all except immediately go out (as soon as the oxygen, in solid oxide form, contained within the match head powder was exhausted.)  If a static spark ignited Hindenburg, it would have started burning on the outside of the ship's skin where air containing oxygen could have mixed with the hydrogen escaping from a small leak.  Even if there was a static electricity spark, as had never occurred in 30 years of successful operation, how would a flame requiring oxygen burn it's way inside the gas cell where there is no oxygen?

The Hindenburg had instruments that would detect and transmit the slightest changes in gas pressure to the bridge, so any sizable leak would have caused a pressure drop almost immediately and would have been detected.

The pilots would have delayed getting close to any structures and sought to correct the problem.  If a spark had then occurred in this split section time window,  then we would have seen a small flame on the outside skin burning like the head of a small gas torch where the hole was. But no way could this flame have gone inside the cell, and no way were there any makings of a bomb or explosion there.

[This story sounds very similar to the story of TWA's doomed flight 800 in which it was reported by the media that the center fuel tank "exploded" while outbound from New York to Paris.  Did you know that the TWA flight 800 examination commission paid millions of dollars to a government contractor to conduct a test that would show how the fuel exploded within a similar tank?  Did you know that after trying every possible manner of detonating jet fuel "fumes," they never could get it to go off?  So they left that little fact out of the report.]

SAFETY RECORD

Another very large problem with the story of the Hindenburg disaster: The seven year performance of the Graf Zeppelin.  This amazing airship proceeded the Hindenburg.  Amongst Graf Zeppelin's many incredible aviation feats was her non-stop flight around the world in 1929 carrying 20 passengers!  Passenger service using piston driven aircraft did not even offer New York to Paris service until 1939.

Over seven years, Graf Zeppelin logged more than 1,000,000 miles, carried 18,000 passengers in safety and comfort, and made 144 successful Atlantic crossings. Graf Zeppelin used only hydrogen as the lifting material.

Airships are a simple form of anti-gravitation.  They are much more efficient  for transporting people and cargo than piston driven and modern day aircraft which have to lift such heavy fuel loads and plow through the air to keep them aloft.  With a streamlined blimp all one does is cast off a line and let the airship rise. Upon reaching a height of about 500 feet, the engines are started and away they go, like a ship floating in water.

Airship use should have been expanded and continued, but that they were shutdown in favor of inefficient winged aircraft which today consume ungodly amounts of petroleum kerosene, otherwise known as high priced jet fuel.
Postscript

In 1948, 
Gestapo Chief Heinrich Muller told his CIA interrogator James Kronthal  that the Hindenburg was sabotaged, but they never caught the instigator.

Facts you need to know about Syria

Dec 22 2016

Facts you need to know about Syria

• The Assad family belongs to the tolerant Islam of Alawid

orientation.
• Syrian women have the same rights as men to study, health

and education.
• Syria women are not forced to wear the burqa. The Sharia

(Islamic law) is unconstitutional.
• Syria is the only Arab country with a secular constitution

and does not tolerate Islamic extremist movements.
• Roughly 10% of the Syrian population belongs to one of the

many Christian denominations, all fully integrated in Syrian

political and social life.
• In other Arab countries the Christian population is less

than 1% due to sustained hostility.
• Syria has banned genetically modified (GMO) seeds, stating

his decision was made in order “to preserve human health,”
• Syria has an opening to Western society and culture like no

other Arab country.
• Its media and universities openly debate the global power

elite’s influence in things. This means that they fully grasp

the fact that real power in the West lies not in the White

House but rather with the complex and powerful grid of elite

think-tanks and central banks.
• Throughout history there have been five popes of Syrian

origin. Religious tolerance is unique in the area.
• Prior to the current civil war, Syria was one of the only

peaceful countries in the area, having avoided major wars or

internal conflicts.
• Syria was the only country that admitted Iraqi refugees

without any social, political or religious discrimination
• Syria clearly and unequivocally opposes Zionism and the

Israel government.
• Following a massive oil find in Syria's Golan Heights,

occupied by Israel since 1967, Netanyahu recently asked Obama

to recognize its annexation of the territory. To consolidate

its hold, plans are afoot to quadruple Israeli settler numbers

to 100,000.

And the most two important points:
• Syria is one of the only countries in the Middle East

without debts to the International Monetary Fund ( Pre-

invasion Libya & Iran the only others )
• Syria is the only Mediterranean country which remains the

owner of its oil company, with an oil reserve of 2,500 million

barrels, the operation of which has avoided privatization and

is reserved exclusively for state-owned enterprises.

So now ask yourself, why are we truly attempting to overthrow

yet another government? What are we hoping to fix here?

If the recent invasions and illegal assassinations of

Presidents like Qaddafi and Saddam have taught us anything, it

should be the understanding of the blowback effect of such

lawless actions by the West and the vacuum of chaos that

always supersedes it.

Debt Conquer. Invent a reason to invade and destroy, then

offer $Trillions in IMF funding to rebuild... conveniently

paid back by control of your oil fields and the free access to

build gas pipelines to the west.
