The Vedic Hymn of Creation
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page analysis of the Vedic Hymn of Creation. The author, using the information found in the book of Genesis as a
contrast, contends that from a Western perspective at least the Hymn tells us nothing about the creation other than telling us that there was one.
It provides nothing regarding the specifics of that creation or really even of its order. Indeed, we are led to believe that even "the One" and
"the Observer" came at some point after the creation of the cosmos. From a Western perspective, therefore, we can not place much value in the
Vedic Hymn. Never-the-less, we must remind ourselves that just because we do not understand what the Hymn is telling us does not necessarily
equate to the fact that no information is being provided. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Vipassana Meditation
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page paper exploring the method and history of Vipassana meditation, and then comparing it to other forms of Buddhism-linked meditation techniques. Sensation-based Vipassana therefore leads the meditator to the place where sensations � such as negativity � can be dealt with right away, having been recognized for what they are. Thus the Vipassana practitioner "sees things as they are," rather than as they appear. Seeing things for what they are enables the individual to make an active choice of whether to accept or reject the thoughts and sensations that enter his mind, thereby giving the Vipassana meditator control over his own mind. Bibliography lists 17 sources.
