Buddhist Halloween (Monster Month)
Malta: underground beings demand humans
This unbelievable story is corroborated by Alex Collier and Philip Schneider at the military base in Dulce. "Mythological" creatures really exist. Governments around the world have long known. They are fed humans just as told in Buddhist accounts of the king and the Yakkha Alavaka.
Malta's Temples and Tombs
Graham Stuart
Just beneath the southern tip of Italy, in the extreme western part of the Mediterranean sea, lies the island of Malta. In the past Malta has been the possession of many nationalities, and has been considered to be one of the most strategic areas on Earth, being a port and an intersecting point between Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and Africa, and so on. This 9-mile-long island was an ancient center of civilization when the Phoenicians from Carthage invaded and began their rule.
Chambers and catacombs beneath the Island of Malta (bibliotecapleyades.net)
A group of ancient priests who worshipped the god Moloch (another name for Baal, Osiris, and Nimrod, whom the ancients considered the "sun god") visited the island in Old Testament times. The islanders readily accepted their teachings, including that of offering up human sacrifices to appease Moloch, for the ancient Maltese themselves practiced human blood sacrifice to the "gods" of the underworld -- literally, underground -- beneath the island and elsewhere.
These so-called deities were often identified with serpents [nagas or reptilians and hairy yakkhas]. When the Apostle Paul, a Christian Biblical figure, visited the island, as recorded in the Book of Acts Chapter 28, he learned of their superstitious beliefs. He had been bitten by one on the island (at the time called Melita) and survived by the power of another "god," Jesus, a popular New Testament figure, whom the Maltese knew nothing about until Paul got through with them.
Since the time of the Carthagians, Malta had had many rulers -- Romans, Arabs, Normans, Argonese, Castillians, the Hospitalers of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem, later known as the Knights of Rhodes, and still later as the Knights of Malta, who remain there to this day, having dual headquarters in Rome.
A few miles south of the Maltese town of Valletta is the small village of Casal Paula. In 1902, workmen digging a well fell into the earth. What they discovered was a series of ancient caves, mostly excavated out of solid rock. The caves descended into three lower tiers. These multi-leveled catacombs became known as the "Hypogeum of Hal Saflienti" after the street overhead. A hypogeum is Latin for an underground structure.
Near the floor of the last chamber, within the third and last (officially recognized) sub-level of the ancient catacombs, there are a few so-called "burial chambers." They are only a few feet square, situated next to the floor, and one must get on hands and knees to look into them.
These chambers are just large enough to crawl through. There have for years been rumors that one does not end but continues into deeper, unexplored caverns beyond.
This was the subterranean passage and chamber referred to years ago in an article that appeared in the August, 1940 issue of the National Geographic magazine. The article states the following concerning several people who disappeared without a trace:
"Many subterranean passageways, including ancient catacombs, now are a part of the island’s fortifications and defense system. Supplies are kept in many tunnels; others are bomb shelters. Beneath Valletta some of the underground areas served as homes for the poor. Prehistoric men built temples and chambers in these vaults. In a pit beside one sacrificial altar lie thousands of human skeletons. Years ago one could walk underground from one end of Malta to the other. The Government closed the entrances to these tunnels after school children and their teachers became lost in the labyrinth while on a study tour and never returned."
The story, however, goes much deeper than the National Geographic article indicates. Other sources say that about 30 children vanished in these catacombs on the study tour. Moreover when the hypogeum was first discovered, nearly 30,000 human skeletons of men, women, and children (victims of ancient sacrifice to the underworld gods, performed by an old neolithic race) were discovered as well.
One article written by a Miss Lois Jessup, at the time an employee of the British embassy, [who entered and saw the monsters that were fed humans] states: Out of this lower tunnel on the far side of the chasm, she claims, emerged in single file several very large creatures of humanoid form but completely covered with hair from head to foot. Noticing her, they raised their arms in her direction, palms out, at which point a violent "wind" began to blow through the cavern, snuffing out her candle. Then, some "thing" wet and slippery (apparently a creature of a different sort) brushed past her. Read full account
Actually, Jessup found the giants of the cave hard to describe because of their covering, which seemed to be like long white hair, combed downward and shaggy looking. Their heads were unusually elongated at chin and top with large features, and the hair on their heads fell about the shoulders like a draped monk's cowl. Lois found the Heindel drawings exciting because "the currents in the desire body" sketches were the first to resemble in any way the cave dwellers she saw on Malta. Nor does her description of them correspond to Shaver's Deros, hideous dwarfs or trolls who might very well have carved that portion of Hal Salfini now open to the public. This conflict in sizes and types very well illustrates the point I made earlier, that the underworld is peopled with beings of many sizes, shapes, and varying degrees of density, from the completely physical to the completely invisible.

BEIJING, China (AP) - The newest Miss World is from the United States. Alexandria Mills, a soft-spoken 18-year-old, was named the winner in Saturday night's contest in southern China. The tall blonde was a relative surprise winner after speculation focused on other contestants. Second place went to Emma Wareus of Botswana, and Adriana Vasini of Venezuela came third. The host country's own contestant, Tang Xiao, also was among the final five. More>>

Study: Superstitions very common in US
- Believing in the paranormal is actually more normal than you might think and may be growing more common.
- Contrary to common stereotypes, there is no single profile of a person who accepts the paranormal.
- It might be in our nature to look for patterns and meaning in strange and random events.
(Discovery News) It's that time of year again. Ghosts [Buddhist petas, narakas, rakshasas], goblins [yakkhas, kumbhandhas, nagas], and other spooky characters come out from the shadows and into our everyday lives.
For most people, the thrill lasts for a few weeks each October. But for true believers, the paranormal is an everyday fact, not just a holiday joke.
To understand what drives some people to truly believe, two sociologists visited psychic fairs, spent nights in haunted houses, trekked with Bigfoot hunters, sat in on support groups for people who had been abducted by aliens, and conducted two nationwide surveys.
Contrary to common stereotypes, the research revealed no single profile of a person who accepts the paranormal. Believers ranged from free-spirited types with low incomes and little education to high-powered businessmen. Some were drifters; others were brain surgeons.
Why people believed also varied, the researchers report in a new book, called Paranormal America: Ghost Encounters, UFO Sightings, Bigfoot Hunts, and Other Curiosities in Religion and Culture.

For some, the paranormal served as just another way of explaining the world. For others, extraordinary phenomena offered opportunities to chase mysteries, experience thrills and even achieve celebrity status, if they could actually find proof.
"It's almost like an adult way to get that kidlike need for adventure and exploration," said co-author Christopher Bader, of Baylor University in Waco, Texas. "Other people are sitting at home and renting videos, but you're sitting in a haunted house that is infested with demons."
"These guys who are hunting Bigfoot are out chasing a monster," he added. "I could see the real appeal in going out for weekend and never knowing what you might find."
There is no hard data on how common it is to believe in the paranormal, which Bader and co-author Carson Mencken define as beliefs or experiences that are not fully accepted by science or religion. More>>

China does everything better (even Bigfoot)
There's an expression about "giving the devil his due." China may be the devil in this case -- atrocities in Tibet and other ethnic provinces and getting ready to consume the consumer world -- and it deserves its due. It does everything better nowadays. It crushes the US economy (by our unpayable debt), rules exports, builds staggering supercomputers, dams, bullet trains, space programs, railroads in the Himalayas, and even accepts WalMart's penny pinching prices.
(Fox News) North America has its Sasquatch "Bigfoot," [Nepal has its Yeti, "Abominable Snowman"], and China has its [Yiren] "Wild Man."
A group of Chinese scientists are on the hunt for the Yeren, the Chinese equivalent of our Bigfoot. Scientists and international researchers refer to the Yeren as "Wild Man" and are on a renewed quest to find him.
Thirty years ago, China's Academy of Science sent three teams of researchers looking for the mysterious creature. Those teams turned up surprising results: hair, excrement, footprints, and a possible "Wild Man" sleeping nest. Alas, those findings weren't conclusive, so they areat it again.
This time around the members of the Hubei Wild Man Research Association are hoping to collect donations to help catch the legendary creature. They need $1.5 million to kick off the project.
This research is not without its merits. Over the years people have reported400 sightings of a reddish hair ape-like man that looks a lot like an Orangutan but stands nearly 7ft tall. Nicholas Redfern, one of the world's leading cryptozoologists, thinks this newest expedition in China is worthwhile because of the fossil record.
"A lot of monster stories can be traced back to myth and folk lore. What people don't know is that in this instance we actually have the fossil record of a large ape-like creature that lived in that area over 300,000 years ago," Redfern told FoxNews.com.
In fact, primatologists have jaw bones, teeth and other bones from a creature found in that area known as Gigantopithecus that would've measured nearly 9ft tall (but probably hunched like an ape). More>>
UFOs: Real "SciFi" on Earth (video)

ET aliens have been visiting Earth for...
Accusing world famous astrophysicist Stephen Hawking of spreading misinformation about threats from aliens, former Canadian defence minister Paul Hellyer claimed Sunday that extraterrestrials have actually been visiting Earth for decades.
Rather than harm mankind, he said, their (aliens') spaceships have provided us information for triggering today's microchip and IT revolution on our planet.
Hawking has recently warned humanity against contacting aliens. "If aliens visit us, the outcome would be much as when Columbus landed in America, which didn't turn out well for the Native Americans,'' the British astrophysicist has said.
According to Hawking, if human beings tried to contact aliens, they could invade us and take away our most important resources. "If they (aliens) wanted to use our solar system, for some super project, our complaints would be like an ant colony protesting the laying of a parking lot,'' Hawking has said in a new documentary.
Hawking has also said that though most extraterrestrial life could be only in the form of small animals, but there could also be "nomads, looking to conquer and colonize'' other planets.

The Heart Sutra (Sanskrit and English)
Honor to the sublime, noble perfection of wisdom!
Arya-Avalokitesvaro bodhisattvo gambhiram prajnaparamitacaryam caramano vyavalokayati sma: panca-skandhas tams ca svabhavasunyan pasyati sma.
[Compassionate] Avalokiteshvara, the noble being-bent-on-perfect-enlightenment, was moving in the deep course of transcendent wisdom which has gone beyond. He looked down from on high and [knowing-and-seeing] beheld nothing more than these Five Aggregates. And he saw that they were empty [devoid of "self"].
Iha Sariputra rupam sunyata sunyataiva rupam, rupan na prithak sunyata sunyataya na prithag rupam, yad rupam sa sunyata ya sunyata tad rupam; evam eva vedana-samjna-samskara-vijnanam.
Here, O [wise] Shariputra, form is emptiness and the very emptiness is form; emptiness does not differ from form, and form does not differ from emptiness. Whatever is form, that is emptiness, and whatever is emptiness, that is form. The same is true of [the other four aggregates:] feelings [sensations], perceptions, volitions, and consciousness.
Iha Sariputra sarva-dharmah sunyata-laksana, anutpanna aniruddha, amala aviamala, anuna aparipurnah.
Here, O Shariputra, all phenomena bear this universal mark of emptiness. They are neither produced nor annihilated, neither defiled nor pure, neither deficient nor complete. [That is to say, there is no duality, no opposites.]
Vulture's Peak, in Rajgir India, the setting for the Heart Sutra (Wonderlane/Flickr.com)
Tasmac Sariputra sunyatayam na rupam na vedana na samjna na samskarah na vijnanam. Na caksuh-srotra-ghranajihva-kaya-manam si. Na rupa-sabda-gandha-rasa-sprastavaya-dharmah. Na caksur-dhatur yavan na manovjnana-dhatuh. Na-avidya na-avidya-ksayo yavan na jara-maranam na jara-marana-ksayo. Na duhkha-samudaya-nirodha-marga. Na jnanam, na praptir, na-apraptih.
Therefore, O Shariputra, in emptiness there is no form, feeling, perception, volition, or consciousness. There is no [contact as a consfequence of three things coming together to form what in brief is called] eye, ear, nose, tongue, body, or mind. There are no [external] forms, sounds, smells, tastes, tangibles, or objects of mind. There is no [sense-base consisting of] sight-organ element, and so forth...no mind-consciousness element. There is no ignorance, no cessation of ignorance, and so forth... There is no decay and death, no cessation of decay and death. There is no suffering, no origination, no cessation, no path. There is no knowing, no attaining, and no non-attaining.
Therefore, O Sariputra, it is because of his non-attainmentness that a being-bent-on-perfect-enlightenment, through having relied on the perfection of wisdom, dwells without thought-coverings. In the absence of thought-coverings one does not tremble, having overcome what can upset, and in the end one abides in nirvana [the unconditioned ultimate reality that is even beyond beyond].
All those who appear as perfectly-enlightened-beings in the past, present, and future fully awake to the utmost enlightenment because they have relied on the perfection of wisdom.
Therefore, one should know the perfection of wisdom by this great mantra, the mantra of great wisdom, the utmost mantra, the unequalled mantra, the allayer of all suffering, in truth for how else could it be? By the perfection of wisdom is this mantra arrived at thus:
It's Art
“We all know that art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize the truth, at least the truth that is given to us to understand” (Pablo Picasso).
The Tao
“Empty yourself of everything. Let the mind become still. The 10,000 things rise and fall while the [empty process referring to itself as] Self watches their return. They grow and flourish and then return to the source. Returning to the source is stillness, which is the way of nature. The way of nature is unchanging. Knowing constancy is insight. Not knowing constancy leads to disaster. Knowing constancy, the mind is open. With an open mind, you will be openhearted. Being openhearted, you will act royally. Being royal, you will attain the divine. Being divine, you will be at one with the Tao. Being at one with the Tao is eternal. And though the body dies, the Tao will never pass away” (Tao Te Ching).

New Buddhist Nuns Ordained in Los Angeles
During the past four decades many Buddhist monks from all Theravadan countries in Asia have come to the West to propagate Buddhism, while serving their ethnic communities. It has been a very rare occasion for a male Westerner to ordain as a Theravada monk. And it has been rarer still for a female to ordain as a Theravada nun. The Bhikkhuni Order was established by the Buddha in the five years after his enlightenment. But for a variety of reasons, the order went extinct over 1,000 years ago (1017 C.E.).

But one aspect of this long tradition that still causes a double-take is when one of those monks is obviously not Thai, and not even Asian. Slowly, they are becoming a more common sight here. Phra Pandit, a Brit who was ordained as a Theravada monk in 1996, is one of the most visible Westerners in Thai Buddhist circles.

American religion survey results inconclusive
Two weeks ago, many American media outlets gleefully reported the results of a recent Pew Research Forum Poll purporting to show that despite being “deeply religious,” Americans are “deeply ignorant of religion” (NY Times) and that atheists and agnostics are more religiously knowledgeable than their more faithful countrymen. Such results do not give a true picture of American spirituality.

Each night the pious pair will sleep under the stars in sleeping bags without even a tent to cover them, say helpers from their home temple in Ganlu, southern China. "They will crawl and then every third step they will stop and bow as a sign of respect to the goddess," explained one.

Masturbation: "Penthouse" pornographer dies
*It is unwholesome karma to purposely and provocatively entice others. When we promote lust, we ourselves are engaged in unskillful actions that bear unpleasant results in the future. Viewers of such material are responsible for their own lustful intentions, of course. But those out to promote such sentiments are preparing that karma as their inheritance. It may be easier to understand by analogy. Lies often harm those who believe them, but they always harm those who speak them, not right away of course. And so it is with promoting lust, anger (fear), or delusion.
Masturbation
WISDOM QUARTERLY (COMMENTARY)
This invites discussion of the delicate subject of masturbation. In brief, viewing pornography that results in self-gratification stimulates lust, delusion, and (often) frustration. Those things rooted in greed, hatred, and delusion are by definition unwholesome, unprofitable, unskillful, morally blameworthy, and not praised by the wise. The results are painful. BUT until such results are met with, one regards them as self-evidently pleasurable.
Viewing pornography and masturbating are intentional actions (karma). The results and fruits (vipaka and phala) of such actions have yet to ripen. They might not in this life. Therefore, to say that there is "no harm in masturbating" is premature.An enlightened individual, or one with insight-knowledge, is in a position to know.
We do not have a means of knowing other than gaining insight-knowledge or resorting to the words of enlightened teachers like the Buddha. They can address whether or not such karma (actions) will have unwelcome, unwished for, unpleasant results. Those engaged in the activity are naturally biased and unaware of what will happen when the results come around.
Of course, on the scale of things, masturbation might not be much to worry about or experience remorse over. (Worry and remorse are themselves unwholesome and do not help the situation). The Buddha did not take up this sensitive subject directly with regard to ordinary people, so far as we at Wisdom Quarterly know.
Founders of other world religions were also wise to sidestep the issue. (Christianity's onanism is not a reference to masturbation; it's just misused that way because the Bible has so little to say on the subject).
The Buddha did, however, take it up with male and female members of the Sangha. It is an offense, not nearly so serious as sex, but an offense nonetheless. Why should it be? It should be at least a minor offense because it obstructs and impedes and acts as a hindrance and an obstacle, to serenity and insight.
The masturbating mind (or the one obsessed with thoughts of sex, lust, pornography) is not the meditating mind. It is not the mind that leads to enlightenment and liberation. It leads again and again to sense sphere (kama-loka) becoming. When it serves as the basis of sexual misconduct (acting out), its results can be tragic and catastrophic -- rebirth in the woeful realms (apaya).
Granted, nearly every single person has done it or does do it; there is no need for shame or for criticizing oneself or others. Criticism leads to hypocrisy. It is enough to know that when enlightenment is the goal, lustful-masturbation is not the path.
