Korskvinnan

 

Det här är alltså enmansprotesten mot islam och Lucis Trust (!) med vidhängande Koran-bränning. Platsen är Odenplan i Stockholm, tidpunkten nu i fredags. Så vitt jag vet har media knappt nämnt denna Koran-bränning. Frågan är varför? YouTube-kanalen som sänder direkt heter Hedlund Media. Den visar många olika slags protester: både högervridna, vänstervridna och religiösa. 

Arrangören och den ende deltagaren heter Jade Sandberg men är mer känd som "Korskvinnan". Hon kallar sig kristen och använder rentav titeln "präst", men hennes samfundstillhörighet (om någon) är höljd i dunkel. Det finns ett pseudo-katolskt inslag i Sandbergs förkunnelse: böner till ärkeängeln Mikael, exorcism samt implicita hänvisningar till korstågen. Andra inslag för mer tankarna till protestantiska domedagssekter. Hon inleder således med ett längre citat från Uppenbarelseboken. Det finns också "paranormala" drag i budskapet. Sandberg säger sig ha blivit kristen efter en nära döden-upplevelse. Hon säger också att vissa personer (kristna mystiker?) besökt helvetet och då sett att Muhammad brinner där! 

Sandberg kritiserar dem som kallar islam "ideologi", vilket givetvis ingen gör. Kanske blandar hon samman islam med islamism? Islam är en religion, punkt, och måste utmanas religiöst. Själva Koran-bränningen är utformad som en kristen exorcism. Korskvinnan säger att både hon och andra har sett bokstavliga demoner flyga ut ur Koranen när den bränns. Sandberg kritiserar även "den nya världsordningen". Den är bokstavligt satanisk. Alice Baileys Lucis Trust (som Sandberg insisterar på att kalla Lucifer Trust) spelar en central roll i denna konspiration. Hon hävdar att Sveriges statsminister Ulf Kristersson är medlem?! Jag tror att konspirationsteorier om Bailey är vanligast bland extrema protestanter, men jag kan ha fel på den punkten. 

Omkring tio poliser finns på plats för att försvara "prästens" yttrandefrihet. Under själva bokbränningen verkar antalet åhörare vara mellan 30 och 50 stycken. Annars är antalet betydligt mindre. Vid två tillfällen försöker utomstående faktiskt stoppa Koran-bränningen, men blir bortmotade av polisen. Första gången är det en svart man som kanske är muslim. Andra gången en vit (svensk?) kvinna. Sandberg blir väldigt upprörd när denna person går fram till henne, håller upp sitt stora kors och åkallar högre makter för att...ja, vad? Driva ut demoner från motdemonstranten? Sedan uppmanar hon kvinnan att åka till Afghanistan! Av sammanhanget att döma antar Sandberg att denna kvinna *inte* är muslim.

Under protesten säger Korskvinnan att man enligt Bibeln får bränna trolldomsböcker, vilket hon alltså menar att Koranen är. Hon säger även att man måste knyta upp håret när man bränner böcker. Oklart om det är polisen som sagt åt henne att göra detta av säkerhetsskäl, eller om det ska föreställa en religiös ritual. Jag reagerade också på att hon liknar en stereotyp "häxa" eller wiccan. På X kallar hon sig faktiskt "prästinna", något kvinnliga kristna präster inte brukar göra. Det låter nästan hedniskt. (Hon kallar sig även "katolsk präst" och "korsridderska".)

Jag upptäckte Korskvinnan av en ren slump för omkring en vecka sedan, och det som egentligen fick mig att reagera var faktiskt hatet mot Baileys teosofiska avknoppning. Om inget oförutsett inträffar så torde mitt intresse för denna fråga att sluta just här...

Color me surprised

 

AI has problems with the Danish flag.
Does it see red as green?

My small talk with ChatGPT continues...

Is color "arbitrary"? That is, could the color we see as "red" just as well be "blue" (or any other color)?

Great question! The idea of color being arbitrary depends on how you define "color"—whether you mean it as a physical property of light or a perceptual experience in the brain.

1️⃣ Physically, Color Is Not Arbitrary

• Light exists as electromagnetic waves, and different wavelengths correspond to different colors:

  • Short wavelengths (~450 nm) → Blue

  • Medium wavelengths (~530 nm) → Green

  • Long wavelengths (~650 nm) → Red

• These wavelengths exist independently of perception, meaning a 650 nm wave is objectively "red" in the sense that it always has that wavelength.

2️⃣ Perceptually, Color Could Be Arbitrary

• Our brain interprets these wavelengths based on how our cone cells respond.

• If our brains were wired differently, we could associate 650 nm with "blue" instead of "red", and no one would know the difference.

• Some evidence for this idea:

  • Inverted Qualia Hypothesis: Philosophers speculate that two people could see colors differently (e.g., my red could be your blue), but we’d never know because we use the same words to describe them.

  • Language & Color Perception: Some languages don’t have separate words for blue and green, influencing how speakers categorize colors.

3️⃣ Alien or Artificial Vision Could See Colors Differently

• A species with different types of photoreceptors could experience totally different colors.

• Even in humans, conditions like synesthesia cause some people to associate colors with sounds or numbers in ways that are "arbitrary" to most people.

Conclusion

• The wavelengths of light are objective, but the experience of color is subjective and could, in theory, be different.

• If we had different biology, we might call "red" something else—or even see colors humans can’t imagine!

Can you tell me more about synesthesia?

Yes! Synesthesia is a fascinating neurological condition where stimulation of one sensory pathway leads to automatic, involuntary experiences in another. In other words, people with synesthesia experience a blending of senses.

🔹 Types of Synesthesia

There are many forms, but here are some of the most well-known:

1. Grapheme-Color Synesthesia ✍️🌈

   • Letters and numbers appear in specific colors (e.g., "A" is always red, "5" is always blue).

   • The colors are consistent for the individual but vary from person to person.

2. Chromesthesia (Sound-to-Color Synesthesia) 🎶🎨

   • Sounds (music, voices, environmental noise) trigger colors, lights, or shapes.

   • Some musicians "see" music in colors (e.g., Beethoven might have had this).

3. Lexical-Gustatory Synesthesia 🗣️🍎

   • Words or sounds trigger taste sensations (e.g., the word "table" might taste like chocolate).

4. Spatial Sequence Synesthesia (Time & Space Mixing) ⏳📍

   • Some synesthetes see time in physical space (e.g., a year might appear as a circle around them).

5. Mirror-Touch Synesthesia 🖐️👤

   • When someone sees another person being touched, they feel it on their own body.

🧠 What Causes Synesthesia?

• It’s believed to be due to extra connections between different sensory regions in the brain.

• It may be genetic, as it often runs in families.

• Some scientists think all babies might be synesthetic but lose the extra connections over time.

🎵 Famous Synesthetes

• Wassily Kandinsky (painter) – Saw colors when hearing music.

• Pharrell Williams (musician) – Experiences colors when hearing sounds.

• Nikola Tesla (inventor) – May have had synesthesia linked to numbers.

🔍 Is Synesthesia Real?

Yes! Brain scans show different brain regions activating in synesthetes when experiencing cross-sensory perceptions. They also perform consistently on tests (e.g., always matching the same colors with letters).

It’s not a disorder—most synesthetes see it as a cool extra sense! 

Tyger tyger burning bright

 

So I decided to fact check a stunning statement overheard on the interwebs with my new friend ChatGPT...

Is this a true statement: Tigers appear orange to humans because most of us are trichromats, but green to deer and boars which are dicromats. The tiger´s orange and black colors provide camouflage, helping it stalk hoofed pray like deer and boars effectively. 

Yes, this statement is generally true.

Explanation:

1. Human Perception (Trichromats):

   • Most humans are trichromats, meaning we have three types of cone cells in our eyes that detect red, green, and blue light.

   • Because of this, we perceive tigers as orange due to how their fur reflects light.

2. Deer and Boar Perception (Dichromats):

   • Many of a tiger’s prey, like deer and boars, are dichromats, meaning they have only two types of cone cells (usually sensitive to blue and green).

   • This limits their ability to distinguish between red and green hues, making colors like orange appear more like green or grayish tones to them.

3. Camouflage Advantage:

   • In a forest or grassy environment, greenish or grayish shades blend in well with foliage and shadows.

   • This helps tigers remain less visible to their prey, making them more effective ambush predators.

So, while tigers look orange to us, they likely appear greenish to their prey, enhancing their natural camouflage.

Is the tiger a trichromat or dichromat? 

Tigers are dichromats, not trichromats.

Like most carnivorous mammals, tigers have only two types of cone cells in their eyes, making them dichromatic. Their color vision is similar to that of deer and other prey animals, meaning they have limited ability to distinguish between red and green.

How This Affects Their Vision:

• Tigers can see blues and greens fairly well.

• Reds and oranges likely appear as shades of green or grayish tones.

• This means that while they don’t see their own fur as bright orange like humans do, their camouflage still works effectively in the forest.

Tigers, like other predators, rely more on motion detection and night vision than detailed color perception. Their eyes are adapted for low-light hunting, which is more critical for their survival than distinguishing a full range of colors.

Evidence for Roman exploration and conquest in the New World? Probably not, but the topic is fascinating. 

The first link goes to a short piece by Richard Carrier, discussing whether art from Pompeii shows pineapples, an American fruit which (probably) shouldn´t have been known to the Romans. He reaches the conclusion that it´s another delicacy altogether.

I already blogged about the content in the second link (see third link!), but here we go again. The "Roman mosaic" with the South American parrot is with outmost probability a forgery. So nah, the first Italian to reach the Americas probably was a certain Columbus, after all...

So I asked my new friend ChatGPT about "physical resurrections" in Tibetan Buddhism...

Are there cases in which the person attaining the rainbow body have re-appeared in a physical form (according to alleged eye witness accounts)?

Yes, there are alleged eyewitness accounts of Tibetan Buddhist masters who attained the Rainbow Body and later reappeared in a physical form. These reports often describe masters manifesting in dreams, visions, or even seemingly physical appearances after their supposed dissolution. However, such claims remain within the realm of Tibetan religious tradition and belief, rather than scientifically verifiable phenomena.

---

1. Padmasambhava (Guru Rinpoche)

• Time Period: 8th century CE

• Alleged Event:

  • Tibetan texts state that Padmasambhava did not die in a normal way but rather attained the Great Transfer (Rainbow Body of Light).

  • Many followers believe he still appears to advanced practitioners in visions and even physically manifests at sacred sites in Tibet and India.

---

2. Nyala Pema Dündul (1816–1872)

• Alleged Event:

  • After attaining Rainbow Body, his physical form vanished, leaving behind only hair and nails.

  • Some disciples claimed to see him in visions afterward, receiving teachings from him.

  • His students recorded accounts of his posthumous appearances, reinforcing his spiritual presence.

---

3. Khenpo A-chö (1998)

• Alleged Event:

  • After his body shrank and emitted light, some of his closest disciples reported seeing him in dreams and waking visions.

  • Some claimed that he spoke to them and gave further teachings even after his physical disappearance.

---

4. Rangjung Dorje, 3rd Karmapa (1284–1339)

• Alleged Event:

  • After his passing, monks and disciples reported seeing his physical form appear in different locations, continuing to give guidance.

  • Some claimed that he continued to influence events from beyond physical existence.

---

5. Shardza Tashi Gyaltsen (1935)

• Alleged Event:

  • According to eyewitnesses, his body shrank and transformed into light at death.

  • Followers reported receiving messages from him and even seeing him in a tangible form after the event.

---

Interpretations of "Reappearance"

Tibetan Buddhism offers several explanations for these alleged posthumous appearances:

1. Tulku Manifestation – The master can reappear voluntarily in a different form to teach others.

2. Sambhogakaya Form – The enlightened being manifests in a visionary, subtle form to communicate with advanced practitioners.

3. Physical Reappearance – Rarely, some traditions claim that certain masters can physically re-materialize.

---

Conclusion

While Tibetan Buddhist tradition holds that some Rainbow Body masters reappear after dissolution, these accounts are based on religious experiences rather than scientific evidence. Many followers accept these stories as part of their faith, while skeptics view them as visions or symbolic interpretations rather than literal physical reappearances.

Would you like to explore more about the theoretical basis for reappearance in Tibetan Buddhist philosophy?

Are there any accounts of physical appearences of Padmasambhava?

Yes, there are numerous accounts within Tibetan Buddhist tradition claiming that Padmasambhava (Guru Rinpoche) has physically appeared to devotees, both historically and in more recent times. These accounts come primarily from terma (hidden treasure texts) and the testimonies of advanced practitioners.

---

1. Traditional Accounts of Padmasambhava’s Physical Reappearance

A. The 11th–12th Century: Reappearing to Reveal Terma Treasures

• Many tertöns (treasure revealers), such as Nyangral Nyima Özer (12th century) and Guru Chöwang (13th century), claimed to have encountered Padmasambhava in a physical form while retrieving hidden teachings (terma).

• These masters described him as appearing in a youthful or radiant form, guiding them to hidden texts and relics.

B. The 17th Century: Visions and Physical Guidance

• The 17th-century master Terdak Lingpa is said to have met Padmasambhava in a physical body in a hidden valley in Tibet.

• The 5th Dalai Lama also claimed to have received direct teachings from Padmasambhava through visions that seemed as real as physical encounters.

---

2. Modern Accounts of Physical Appearances

A. Dudjom Rinpoche (1904–1987)

• Dudjom Rinpoche, one of the greatest Nyingma lineage masters, claimed to have met Padmasambhava in a physically tangible form in a remote cave.

• He described the experience as Padmasambhava speaking directly and giving teachings.

B. H.H. Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche (1910–1991)

• A close disciple of Jamyang Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö, he was said to have encountered Padmasambhava physically during deep meditation retreats.

C. Tertön Sogyal (1856–1926)

• He reportedly had a face-to-face meeting with Padmasambhava and received sacred texts from him.

• The 13th Dalai Lama regarded him as a genuine recipient of Padmasambhava’s direct transmission.

---

3. Interpretations of These Accounts

• Tibetan Buddhists view these as literal, physical encounters, where Padmasambhava temporarily manifests a body for the benefit of his students.

• Some interpretations suggest that these may be Sambhogakaya manifestations—not ordinary physical appearances but experiences as real as physical encounters for highly realized practitioners.

• Skeptics and historians suggest these may be visionary experiences rather than true physical reappearances.

---

Conclusion

While mainstream historians do not recognize physical reappearances of Padmasambhava, Tibetan Buddhist tradition maintains hundreds of alleged cases where realized masters saw, spoke with, or received teachings from him in a tangible form.

Would you like references to specific Tibetan texts that record these encounters?

How did Padmasambhava attain the rainbow body originally, according to the traditional understanding?

According to Tibetan Buddhist tradition, Padmasambhava (Guru Rinpoche) attained the Great Transfer (Rainbow Body of Light) at the end of his time in Tibet. This means that instead of experiencing a normal physical death, he transformed his body into light and left no physical remains. This event is seen as the culmination of his mastery of Dzogchen and Vajrayana practices.

---

How Did Padmasambhava Attain the Rainbow Body?

1. His Mastery of Dzogchen and Tantric Practices

• Padmasambhava was believed to have achieved the highest realization of Dzogchen (the Great Perfection), which allows the practitioner to dissolve the physical body into light.

• Through phowa (transference of consciousness) and tögal (spontaneous presence meditation), he completely purified his body and mind.

• His lifelong practice of Vajrayana tantra, including inner heat (tummo), dream yoga, and deity yoga, helped him transcend physical limitations.

2. His Final Days in Tibet (According to Nyingma Texts)

• Before departing, Padmasambhava gathered his closest disciples and predicted future events, including the coming of tertöns (treasure revealers) who would find his hidden teachings (terma).

• He gave final instructions to King Mutri Tsenpo (the son of Trisong Detsen) and his Tibetan disciples.

3. The Great Transfer at Copper-Colored Mountain (Zangdok Palri)

• According to The Lotus-Born Biography (Nyangral Nyima Özer, 12th century):

  • Padmasambhava did not die in Tibet but rode a sunbeam to the mystical realm of Zangdok Palri (Copper-Colored Mountain) in the pure land of the dakinis.

  • Witnesses saw his body radiate light, and he disappeared into the sky.

  • Only his hair and nails remained, a classic sign of Rainbow Body realization.

---

Traditional Significance of His Rainbow Body Attainment

1. He Remains Active in the World

   • Tibetan Buddhists believe that Padmasambhava never truly left and continues to manifest in visions, dreams, and physical appearances to guide practitioners.

2. The Model for Future Masters

   • Many Dzogchen masters (such as Nyala Pema Dündul, Shardza Tashi Gyaltsen, and Khenpo A-chö) are believed to have attained the Rainbow Body by following his path.

3. Terma Teachings & Prophecies

   • Before leaving, he hid secret teachings (terma) across Tibet and Bhutan, to be revealed by tertöns like Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo and Dudjom Rinpoche in later centuries.

---

Conclusion

According to Tibetan tradition, Padmasambhava attained the Great Transfer (Rainbow Body of Light) by fully realizing Dzogchen and Vajrayana practices. Instead of dying, he vanished into light, leaving behind no corpse and traveling to Zangdok Palri, where he continues to guide practitioners.

Big Mind

 

So where Ken Wilber at? I haven´t read his most recent book "Finding Radical Wholeness", but the link below goes to a critical review by his constant shadow Frank Visser over at Integral World (yes, that site still exists). 

Make of the critique what ye wish, but I get the impression that Wilber is pretty much at the same place as, say, 20 years ago. The Tantric aspect is supposedly new, but hasn´t Wilber always been inspired by Tibetan Buddhism somehow?

And yes, Visser himself seems to be mostly stuck in the same place as always, too!

Terrorbirds

So I just learned that seriemas aren´t really gruiforms, but belong to an order all their own closer on the evolutionary tree to falcons, parrots and passerines. Does that matter? Not really...except that the seriemas are the only surviving cariamiforms. The order was once more diverse and also included, ahem, terrorbirds...

I never really thought about it, but it *is* funny that terrorbirds are closer on the evolutionary tree to the songbirds in your backyard than they are to cassowaries (the modern birds they superficially resemble). It´s also really, really funny that they have been extinct for quite some time, LOL.

This is us now

 

There is something strangely reassuring about our ultimate evolutionary ancestors being "Asgard Archaea" found inside "Loki´s Castle" in the Atlantic Ocean midway between Iceland and Svalbard. 

The hypothesis is that an archaeum captured a bacterium...and this became the first eukaryotic cell. All (?) extant living creatures which aren´t Archaea or Bacteria are Eukaryota, including humans. The idea that our evolutionary ancestor was a hybrid between two different lineages (presumably combining the best traits of both) is obviously also appealing. Are you listening, Lynn Margulis? 

Note also that we are no longer bacteria "cladistically speaking", but rather archaea. Thank you. Always considered archaea to be more cool somehow!

This is us now.  

Harmonization, please...anyone?

 

I couldn´t withhold this little gem from JMG´s Parsifal essay linked to in the previous blog post: 

>>>It’s indicative of the difference we’re discussing that the salvation offered by Christ is confirmed to his believers by their faith that he returned from death, while the salvation offered by the Buddha is confirmed to his believers by their faith that everyone else returns from death but he did not and never will. 

>>>It’s equally noteworthy that Christian teaching rests on the idea that each human being has an immortal soul that needs to be saved from damnation, while Buddhist teaching insists that the idea that any of us has an enduring self at all is the very source of our damnation. 

>>>The two faiths are irreconcilable at levels deeper than most people, and even most theologians, are willing to go.

Noooo, I want harmonization so I can pretend that pluralism doesn´t really mean what it seems to mean...

That elusive grail

 

Is this the last installment in John Michael Greer´s analysis of Wagner´s Ring Cycle and Parsifal? 

Here is the last paragraph: "The load of that loveless pity has become an immense political fact in our day. Wagner’s operas offer no answers in response to it; brilliant as he was despite his flaws, he wrestled with the challenges of his own time, not those of ours. Can we expect some other wandering youth raised in the wilderness to arrive with a new answer that will meet the hard needs of our predicament, or are we just waiting for fire and flood to overwhelm the Valhallas of the modern industrial world? The curtain falls, the lights come up, and the opera is over; if there is an answer, we must find it somewhere else."

Damn. For a moment, I assumed JMG would give us the Holy Grail!

Interestingly, both the real fake and the fake fake are still on display somewhere in the US. How´s that for Americana?

Fated

The Metatron has watched the hours-long press conference featuring the three Italian researchers who claim to have found evidence of underground structures at the Giza plateau. While our man doesn´t rule anything out, he is *very* critical of the presentations at the presser and wonders aloud (very aloud) about the underlying methodology. It seems to be some kind of "Alternative Egypt" esoteric mumbo-jumbo, put forward with all the usual fanaticized conviction of true believers. 

For instance, the claim that the Giza plataeu can be dated to 36,000 BC?! Or the claim that the researchers have located an underground "city" from Egyptian mythology. And when they used their radar technology to pick up vibrations from the ground, they "discovered" an ancient structure that looked like a tuning fork! It´s all "fated" and what not, even the fact that these three investigators met is "fated". 

What really seems fated here is that this will turn out to be another episode in the neverending saga of pyramidiocy. And yes, a reptoid alien was included in one of the team´s powerpoints. Probably a joke, but you´ll never know.
