"Riding shotgun, my job description was to keep our driver happy and alert --which was accomplished through the natural enjoyment of sangha as we fill our vessel with contemplations, insights, good humor, and an appreciation of scenery and bumper stickers alike."

The Telegraph - Calcutta (Kolkata) | Nation | Sarnath set...

"One of the world's tallest Buddha statues will soon be unveiled at Sarnath, the pilgrimage centre near Varanasi where he had delivered his first sermon.
The Thai government-funded 100-foot sandstone structure, at a Thai monastery in Sarnath, is similar to Afghanistan's two Bamiyan statues, which were the world's tallest Buddha images till they were destroyed by the Taliban in March 2001.
The Sarnath bust mirrors the Gandhara style of art on which the Bamiyan statues, carved on the sides of a cliff, were based."

"As I continued looking, an assortment of shiny round objects in a variety of colors caught my eye. They were like so many beads in a make-your-own-jewelry kit, ranging from the size of a peppercorn to that of a chickpea. Some were smooth and glossy, others matte and irregular; others looked identical to seed pearls. The descriptions claimed they were from the historical Buddha, his heart disciples Shariputra and Ananda, and a host of Buddhist luminaries hailing from India, China, Burma, Thailand, and Tibet. Here were the Buddha's "blood relics," his "very white relics," and Ananda's "dark relics," the labels read. This sort of collection I had never seen, or even heard of, before."

"It is now abundantly clear that human consciousness is largely defined by the neurological functions which are characteristic of Homo sapiens as a biological species, irrespective of social conditions. Hence, the conclusions of modern neuroscience are applicable to the study of historical phenomena, including ancient Greek religion and philosophy. Neuropsychology provides a methodological basis for the study of the consciousness of religious practitioners and its transformation in different environments. Especially revealing is the study of altered states of consciousness which, in many cases, entails a sense of ineffable revelation of superhuman truth. Since such states of consciousness often occur when people are exposed to sensory deprivation, seers, shamans, and other mediators between gods and mortals undergo long isolated sojourns in caves and other closed spaces in their quest for ecstatic illuminations"

"In short, America is not the answer; it is only a good place to look for the answer. America has never been perfect; it's just been a place where it was easier to fix things that were broken. The ability to repair ourselves has long been one of our great characteristics as a people and a nation."
