This paper examines how human experience, inner discipline (Understanding of the self), and cosmic order operate as a natural unity rather than as separate philosophical compartments. The study is grounded in Para Vidya, where the trinity is understood as deha (bodily self), jiva (conceptual self), and paramathma (the actual self), not as three independent possessions but as expressions of...

Abstract:The doctrine of dependent origination as presented in the Nikāya-Āgama literature has been much discussed; the notion (explicit in Buddhist exegetical traditions) that its twelve links might refer to the causal connections that operate across different lives is frequently referred to in the scholarly literature. Generally overlooked is the canonical Abhidharma's notion of...

This paper develops a mystical atheist political theology drawing on Brook Ziporyn’s work, particularly his interpretation of Tiantai Buddhist metaphysics. Mainstream political theology rests on the idea that political concepts are secularized theological concepts. If true, this poses a challenge for mystical atheism, since this means that atheism is effectively barred from the political...

Contemporary psychology generally views identification as one of the mechanisms of psychological development, socialization, and personality formation. This paper proceeds from a different assumption. Identification is not a separate psychological mechanism but rather a defective mode of the fundamental mechanism of creative imagination. The central thesis of the paper is that there are not two...

Mindfulness is an ancient Buddhist tradition which has found a place in the West especially as a therapeutic intervention. The evidence base continues to expand but most of the previous work has been undertaken with adults, with relatively limited research involving children and young people. The study was conceived, devised and designed within a CAMHS setting and therefore much attention has...

Understanding affective valence is essential to the fostering of well-being since positive and negative experiences shape our quality of life. One promising approach is to use computational frameworks of perception and action, which seek to formalise the mechanisms underlying valenced experience. Within one such framework, active inference, valence is canonically treated as a consequence of...

Single-Practice Samadhi is an important contemplative method in Mahayana Buddhism, while segmental birth-and-death and transformational birth-and-death are key doctrinal categories through which Mahayana Yogacara explains the samsaric continuity of sentient beings and the still-incomplete state of saints before perfect awakening. Examining these three themes within one doctrinal framework helps...
