BUDDHA STANDARD TIME - LAMA SURYA DAS







RATING - B-

The left-right comparison in chapter 3 was of especial interest to me. I visualize the left side of my mind as being plugged into karma and the right to dharma. I agree - no alarm clock needed by me! I didn't find it all to be the case for me, though. When I worked from 1am thru 10am, I was fitter, slimmer, alerter than I am now that I work 5am thru 8/9pm. (I believe this to be because I 'use' another person's natural hours vibe rather than my own.)

Page 96 reminds me of my friend's website - HERE The reference to women having a thicker corpus callosum on page 99 made me wonder if this has changed throughout the centuries - or might do in future ones - as the female role changes? The brain vibration frequencies on page 119 are interesting - I have noticed change of energy when living under a headache rather than in it, and how resting energy itself can assist in calming thoughts. I also appreciated reading of many references to nature and birdlife.

Perhaps more oriented to the average everyday human than the serious Buddhist student, it nevertheless provided adequate opportunity to contemplate.
