Suzuki By Shubun (15th Century) a series of short poems and accompanying woodcuts that are intended to illustrate the stages of a Mahāyāna Buddhist practitioner's progression towards enlightenment, as well as his or her subsequent perfection of wisdom. The pictures first appeared in their present form, as drawn by the Chinese Chán (Zen) master Kuòān Shīyuǎn (廓庵師遠), in the 12th century, and may represent a Zen Buddhist interpretation of the ten stages experienced by a Bodhisattva as outlined in various Mahāyāna sūtras, most particularly the Avataṃsaka Sūtra.

POPSChina pays a high price for environmental indifference! As it vandalizes much of the natural World in its bid to exploit natural resources China's years of indifference to environmental woes is coming to haunt its leaders. Bravo! All the pomp and ceremony could well be shrouded by a real "pea soup" of pollution. It fits well in a nation which obscures its abuses of human rights, its willingness to tolerate so much fake in medicines, products, etc. Its time for China to "come clean" in more ways than just its smog!

POPSOxygen may ease headache and migraine Breathing oxygen as opposed to what? I wonder if it has anything to do with the air being clean. Perhaps fresh air would have a similar effect. Fresh air is getting harder to find these days

POPSPuffy? Diddy? 'It's Not a Serious Thing' An interesting interview. I bet you didn't know that P. Diddy was helping his grandmother sew clothes when he was a teen. The story between the lines is of a mother with middle class aspirations.

There is indication that doctors have given the wrong information in recommending that the very young avoid certain foods (such as nuts and peanuts) and maybe should recommend higher than 'normal' amounts. An interesting interview.

POPSCO2, A Breath Of Fresh Air
CO2 is being labelled a pollutant but is it? Climate alarmism depends on catastrophe. In itself CO2 is a life giver. As a combination of Oxygen and Carbon it represents life itself. We are built from carbon as is every other life form and again like every other life form Oxygen is the fuel we must have to survive. How can the very elements that build us and fuel us and every other life form be a pollutant? The main case being made against our fossil fuel habit is that we are releasing carbon stored over millennia into the atmosphere in a relatively short period of time. Is that necessarily a bad thing in itself? We certainly need to conserve natural resources but the fact is that after several billion years of life on Earth the Earth’s crust is simply awash with carbon in one form or another. However, the demonisation of fossil fuels and CO2 before the globe has removed poverty and allowed less developed nations to share in worldwide prosperity is an obscenity.

POPSVeteran Peacemakers O'Malley, Maharaj on Iraq The show has many interesting details on conflict resolution and peace work. Additionally... There is not one Iraqi from any segment of society that O'Malley met that was not resentful of the American occupation. This was fueled by the unequal treatment that Iraqis receive at American checkpoints where low-level American functionaries are waved through but top Iraqi government officials wait for hours to pass.
