High Court of Sapporo, on northern Japan’s Hokkaido Island, said that
rules in Japan’s civil code limiting marriage to two people of opposite
genders are “unconstitutional” and “discriminatory.” Judge Kiyofumi
Saito added that the ban violates Article 14 of the Constitution, which
provides that all citizens are equal.</p><p>The ruling was the first one
to use such strong language. It came after other decisions, issued by
lower courts, arguing the ban was in a “state of unconstitutionality,”

the government would monitor public opinion and upcoming court rulings,
believing that “an introduction of same-sex marriage closely affects
family values of the people.”</p><p>On the other hand, the Sapporo court
said that “enacting same-sex marriage does not seem to cause
disadvantages or harmful effects.” Advocates added that the ban could
even harm the Japanese economy.</p><p>Japan is the only member of the
Group of Seven – whose member states are listed among the world’s
wealthiest – offering no legal protection for same-sex couples, Reuters
explained.</p><p>An executive at Goldman Sachs in Tokyo told the
newswire that by keeping the ban, Japan risks repelling talented foreign
LGBTQ workers who could not move to the country with their partners and
enjoy the same rights as their heterosexual counterparts.</p><p>So far,
nearly 400 local governments in Japan have approved partnership systems
for same-sex couples, with a limited set of benefits.</p><p>US
Ambassador to Japan Rahm Emmanuel praised the court ruling’s step on “a
journey of 1,000 miles” toward legalizing same-sex marriage.</p>oreydchttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02414842298730341717noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7195448042369453619.post-29737291842703764042024-03-18T13:16:00.005-03:002024-03-18T13:16:36.916-03:00Via Dhamma Wheel | Right View: Understanding the Noble Truth of Suffering<p> </p><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="width: 100%;"><tbody><tr><td align="center" id="m_-3510870949957985556templatePreheader" style="background-color: white; background-image: none; background-position: center; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-size: cover; background: #ffffff none no-repeat center/cover; border-bottom: 0; border-top: 0; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-top: 9px;" valign="top"><table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="m_-3510870949957985556templateContainer" style="border-collapse: collapse; max-width: 600px!important; width: 100%;"><tbody><tr><td valign="top"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse; min-width: 100%; width: 100%;"><tbody><tr><td style="padding: 0px;" valign="top"><table align="left" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse; min-width: 100%; width: 100%;"><tbody><tr><td style="padding-bottom: 0; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0; text-align: center;" valign="top"><a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://tricycle.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u%3D7914aa1664771ddd4c8fa8040%26id%3D0167eb72a6%26e%3D2eca3479fc&source=gmail&ust=1710861821840000&usg=AOvVaw1zu5Qs67EhYRi-F8mFrm9m" href="https://tricycle.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=7914aa1664771ddd4c8fa8040&id=0167eb72a6&e=2eca3479fc" target="_blank" title="">

<div style="text-align: left;">The truth of
suffering is not meant to encourage us to wallow in our afflictions, but
it does not let us try to escape them through some kind of denial. The
first noble truth is a starting point. Only when the suffering is
acknowledged can the healing begin. Look at some aspect of your own
suffering with courage and without fear and decide that you can and will
undertake a path to heal the pain by understanding it and letting it
go.</div>

<span style="font-size: 18px;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,lucida grande,lucida sans unicode,lucida sans,tahoma,sans-serif;">When
we are asleep, our consciousness is more detached from the perceptions
and sensations that come to us through the senses. Through devoted
practice, we can discover the 'clear light' of consciousness that is not
bound to the physical body, and that is not extinguished when we die.<br />

<span style="font-size: 1em; font-weight: bold;">1893</span><strong><span> - </span></strong>
</div>
<div>
<p style="color: #585858; line-height: 24px; margin: 1em 0;">On this date the soldier and iconic war poet <span style="color: #339966;"><strong>WILFRED OWEN</strong></span>
was born (died 1918). Regarded by many as the leading poet of the
First World War, his shocking, realistic war poetry on the horrors of
trench and gas warfare was heavily influenced by his friend Siegfried
Sassoon and sat in stark contrast to both the public perception of war
at the time, and to the confidently patriotic verse written earlier by
war poets such as Rupert Brooke. Some of his best-known works—most of
which were published posthumously—include "Dulce Et Decorum Est",
"Insensibility", "Anthem for Doomed Youth", "Futility" and "Strange
Meeting". His preface intended for a book of poems to be published in
1919 contains numerous well-known phrases, especially 'War, and the pity
of War', and 'the Poetry is in the pity'. He is perhaps just as
well-known for having been killed in action at the Battle of the Sambre
just a week before the war ended, causing news of his death to reach
home as the town's church bells declared peace.
</p>
<p style="color: #585858; line-height: 24px; margin: 1em 0;">Robert Graves and
Sacheverell Sitwell (who also personally knew him) have stated Owen was
homosexual, and homo-eroticism is a central element in much of Owen's
poetry. Through Sassoon, Owen was introduced to a sophisticated
homosexual literary circle which included Oscar Wilde's friend Robbie
Ross, writer and poet Osbert Sitwell, and C. K. Scott-Moncrieff, the
translator of Proust. This contact broadened Owen's outlook, and
increased his confidence in incorporating homoerotic elements into his
work.</p>
<p style="color: #585858; line-height: 24px; margin: 1em 0;">The account of
Owen's sexual development has been somewhat obscured because his
brother, Harold Owen, removed what he considered discreditable passages
in Owen's letters and diaries after the death of their mother. Owen also
requested that his mother burn a sack of his personal papers in the
event of his death, which she faithfully did.</p><hr style="margin-bottom: 1em; width: 75%;" />

increasing commodification of gay news, views, and culture by powerful
corporate interests, having a strong independent voice in our community
is all the more important. White Crane is one of the last brave

mediocrity of the mainstream Gay world." - <em>Mark Thompson</em></strong></p>

<div style="text-align: left;">As we move into
practicing with the fourth foundation of mindfulness, mindfulness of
mental objects, the instructions become somewhat more detailed. The
first section goes through each of the five hindrances and invites us to
notice not only whether they are present or not but also how they arise
in the mind. The teaching also points out that each hindrance can be
abandoned once it has arisen. Observing this is important.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">Sometimes when
you are sitting in meditation you will notice that the mind is restless.
That’s okay; just notice it. And other times the mind will be calm and
without restlessness. Notice this as well. Once familiar with these two
modes, you can look more closely at the transition from one state to the
other—watching the arising and passing away of restlessness. It is just
a mental factor that comes and goes. Looking carefully, you’ll see
that.</div>

With the abandoning of pleasure
and pain, and with the previous disappearance of joy and grief, one
enters upon and abides in the fourth phase of absorption, which has
neither-pain-nor-pleasure and purity of mindfulness due to equanimity.
The concentrated mind is thus purified, bright, unblemished, rid of
imperfection, malleable, wieldy, steady, and attained to
imperturbability. (MN 4)<br />
<br />
When one sees oneself purified of all these unhealthy states and thus
liberated from them, gladness is born. When one is glad, joy is born; in
one who is joyful, the body becomes tranquil; one whose body is
tranquil feels pleasure;<em> in one who feels pleasure, the mind becomes concentrated.</em> (MN 40)

is not something we do to the mind, but is something we allow the mind
to do. The mind would naturally be far more concentrated than it usually
is if we could just stop interfering with it. The states of
restlessness, sluggishness, sense desire, ill will, and doubt act as
obstacles or hindrances preventing the mind from reaching a natural
state of great tranquility, clarity, unity, and strength.</div>

able to experience this particular kind of pleasure, the pleasure born
of freedom, gladness, and joy, it is only a small step to develop a deep

allows for a profound seeing of things as they actually are, without
distortion. Approach concentration in your practice in this way, as
uncovering a natural state of mind.</div>

<span style="font-size: 18px;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,lucida grande,lucida sans unicode,lucida sans,tahoma,sans-serif;">We
can’t live ethically without caring about ourselves as well as others.
And we can’t be mindful without caring about what is happening here and
now. Care underpins the radical attention that dharma practice
accentuates.<br />

Whatever a person frequently
thinks about and ponders, that will become the inclination of their
mind. If one frequently thinks about and ponders healthy states, one has
abandoned unhealthy states to cultivate healthy states, and then one’s
mind inclines to healthy states. (MN 19)<br />
<br />
Here a person rouses the will, makes an effort, stirs up energy, exerts
the mind, and strives to maintain arisen healthy mental states. One
maintains the arisen joy-awakening factor. (MN 141)

<div style="text-align: left;">Last week we
looked at abandoning unhealthy states that have arisen in the mind, and
this week we are doing the opposite: practicing to maintain the good
states of mind that have come up. If we are feeling generous or kind, or
are being truthful, that is a good thing and should be supported. The
word translated here as “maintain” also has the sense of guarding or
protecting healthy emotions and healthy thoughts.</div>

positive states arise and pass away naturally in the mind. The practice
here is to notice that and to support, reinforce, and sustain positive
states. If you say something nice to someone, say it again or say it to
another person. If you give something to someone in an act of
generosity, acknowledge that giving to others is good for you and look
for opportunities to give again and again in different ways.</div>

<div>Intoxication is unhealthy.
Refraining from intoxication is healthy. (MN 9) What are the
imperfections that defile the mind? Negligence is an imperfection that
defiles the mind. Knowing that negligence is an imperfection that
defiles the mind, a person abandons it. (MN 7) One practices thus:
"Others may become negligent by intoxication, but I will abstain from
the negligence of intoxication." (MN 8)<br />

One of the dangers attached to addiction to intoxicants is loss of good name. (DN 31)</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">Negligence can
seem harmless enough in some minor cases, but often it has serious
consequences. When we are not paying adequate attention, people can get
hurt. The opposite of negligence—diligence or attentiveness—is a
cardinal Buddhist virtue. This is partly because of the care for life
that we have seen expressed in many places. Committing to abstain from
intoxication is a gift of harmlessness we give to others.</div>

Good things come from doing good deeds, bad things come from doing bad deeds. (SN 11.10) What is the purpose of a mirror? For the purpose of reflection. So too social action is to be done with repeated reflection. (MN 61)<br /><br />One reflects thus: "Others may act in unhealthy ways; I shall refrain from acting in unhealthy ways." (MN 8) One lives with companions in concord, with mutual appreciation, without disputing, blending like milk and water, viewing each other with kindly eyes. One practices thus: "I maintain bodily acts of lovingkindness toward my companions both openly and privately."

Today, actively look for ways to do little things with the intention of pleasing someone. And don’t necessarily feel the need for such deeds to be acknowledged.

<div>Frivolous speech is
unhealthy. Refraining from frivolous speech is healthy. (MN 9)
Abandoning frivolous speech, one refrains from frivolous speech. One
speaks at the right time, speaks only what is fact, and speaks about
what is good. One speaks what is worthy of being overheard, words that
are reasonable, moderate, and beneficial. (DN 1) One practices thus:
"Others may speak frivolously, but I shall abstain from frivolous
speech." (MN 8)<br />
<br />
When a person commits an offense of some kind, one should not hurry to
reprove them but rather should consider whether or not to speak. If you
will be troubled, the other person will be hurt, and you can help them
emerge from what is unhealthy and establish them in what is healthy,
then it is proper to speak. It is a trifle that you will be troubled and
they will be hurt compared with the value of helping establish them in
what is healthy. (MN 103)</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">The teachings
on right speech are encouraging us to take the matter of communication
more seriously than we often do. Often a lot of chattering is not
conveying anything important, and it has a tendency to be distracting,
making us less attentive. Speaking carefully about what is true and good
brings greater value to our speech and renders it more worthy of being

<div style="text-align: left;">The example
offered in this passage suggests that we should not jump to reprimand
someone when they have committed some small offense. Pausing to consider
whether to speak up breaks the momentum of a quick, reflexive reaction.
It may turn out to be appropriate to speak, but the key issue is
whether it would be helpful to do so. Note that whether speaking up
would be troublesome or might hurt the other person is a trifle in
comparison to the benefit of “helping establish them in what is
healthy.”</div>

<span style="font-size: 18px;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,lucida grande,lucida sans unicode,lucida sans,tahoma,sans-serif;">Community
is where we find our power. And it can also assuage our sense of
loneliness and powerlessness. There’s a wonderful anecdote where Ananda
asks the Buddha, “Good friendship is half the spiritual life, isn’t it?”
And the Buddha replies, “It’s the whole thing.”<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">One way to get free of attachment is to cultivate the witness
consciousness, to become a neutral observer of your own life. The
witness place inside you is simple awareness, the part of you that is
aware of everything — just noticing, watching, not judging, just being
present, being here now.
<br /><br />
The witness is actually another level of consciousness. The witness
coexists alongside your normal consciousness as another layer of
awareness, as the part of you that is awakening. Humans have this unique
ability to be in two states of consciousness at once. Witnessing
yourself is like directing the beam of a flashlight back at itself. In
any experience — sensory, emotional, or conceptual — there’s the
experience, the sensory or emotional or thought data, and there’s your
awareness of it. That’s the witness, the awareness, and you can
cultivate that awareness in the garden of your being.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">-Ram Dass- </span><br /></p>oreydchttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02414842298730341717noreply@blogger.com0
