“This is a terrific guide for young actors… I read it cover to cover and then went out and bought copies for all my kids because, truthfully, it puts an experienced eye on pretty much all of life’s early encounters.”
– Donald Sutherland
“When I was about to go into my callback with Sacha Baron Cohen, Nancy told me, ‘Just enjoy the experience; you have nothing to lose,’ and she speaks a lot about that in this book. She takes the worry out of auditioning and helps us see the fun and positive side of the experience. Nancy is a true champion for diversity and I am so grateful she has opened the doors for Eastern European artists.”
– Maria Bakalova
Since the first edition was published in 2009, this practical workbook has helped countless actors learn the craft of auditioning for screen. Owing to the seismic changes within the industry following on from the #MeToo movement and, of course, the impact of social media and ever-advancing technology, how auditioning and casting are conducted has radically changed.
This third edition of Auditioning for Film and Television addresses these issues and how they come into play in the audition room, offering guidance on areas such as:
– How actors can most professionally conduct themselves in a casting situation, and on set, when there is sexuality inherent in a role
– How both interviewers and interviewees can keep the relationship clear, professional and above board
– What resources are available if issues arise
In addition, readers continue to benefit from the author’s tried-and-tested advice that will help them to succeed in this crowded and competitive industry.


(In Finnish Mythology)
Päivätär and Kuutar
Päivätär and Kuutar are part of Finno-Baltic folklore. Päivätär is the goddess of the sun and Kuutar is the goddess of the moon. In Finnish mythology, Päivätär and Kuutar are sisters and spinner goddesses. Sisters weave the web of life which connects the dreams and wishes of all humans together. We can see this web in the first sun rays and in the evening twilight. Päivätär is connected to east, day and spring. Her name is derived from the Finnish word päivä meaning day. Kuutar is connected to the west, evenings and autumn. Her name is derived from the Finnish word kuu meaning the moon. It is possible that in pre-Christian times Päivätär especially had a significant role as the giver of life and was widely worshipped among different Finno-Ugric tribes.
Minor Farming Spirits
There are several farming spirits mentioned in Finnish folk poems but stories and myths about them are very limited. It is possible that their role was much greater in the pre-Christian agrarian culture. Pellonpekko (lit. Translation ”pekko of the field”) was the protector of barley and he was worshipped in different parts of the country. Beer was made of barley so Pekko was also the protector spirit of beer, which was an important drink, especially in the different celebrations. Äkräs was the protector of field and growth. He was connected to turnips, peas, beans, cabbage, linen and hemp. Rongoteus was the protector spirit of rye and Vironkannos was the protector of oat.
The name of Vironkannos comes from the Estonian word Virank which means sacrifice. In Estonia god of farming and fertility was called Peko. Sometimes scarecrows were called Pellonpekko and children were scared with it if they did not behave. Words like -pek and -pik are of Scandinavian origin and refer to a little man. In the ancient stories, Pikki was the spirit of the kaski the burn clearing. Since Finland has always been a very forestry country the first farming fields were made by burning woods.
Sämpsä or Sämpsä Pellervoinen was another farming spirit. He had many roles. In some areas, he was the protector of trees and the spirit of the forest. He had ploughed the seeds from which the first trees grew. According to the myth, Sämpsä was resting when the winter boy came to wake him up. Sämpsä did not like winter and would not get up. Only when the summer boy came to wake him Sämpsä agree to help. He was invoked in the springtime festivals to bring fertility to the land.
Sämpsä is mentioned in the birth poem of the trees:
The Origin of Trees
Sampsa (and) boy Pellervoinen all summer lay on the hard ground in the middle of a field of corn, in the bosom of a grain-filled barge, he put six grains, seven seeds in a martin´s skin, in a summer squirrel´s leg, departed to sow the land, to scatter thickly seed. With stooping back he sowed the land, he sowed firm land, he sowed the swamps, sowed the sandy clearings run to the waste, he planted places full of stones. Hillocks he sowed with clumps of fir, sowed hills with clumps of spruce, with clumps of heather — sandy heaths, valleys- with sampling shoots, birches he sowed in humid dells, the alder trees — in loose-ish earth, in moist land sowed bird-cherry-trees, in holy places- rowan trees, willows — on floored land, sallows — on meadow boundaries, in sterile places — junipers, and oaks along the river banks. The trees began to sprout, the sapling shoots to grow, while rocked by a gust of wind, while swung by the chilly wind; the bushy-headed firs grew up. The branching headed pines spread out, birches sprang up in humid dells, the alder trees on loose-ish earth, bird-cherry trees on dampish earth, in holy places rowan trees, willows on flooded land, sallows on moistish land, on the sterile ground the junipers and oaks along the river banks.

My friend had a beautiful old watch that belonged to her dad, and she wanted to get it back in working order. She took it to a repairman, and while examining the watch, he told my friend he could tell a lot about her dad by the way the watch was worn. He mentioned her dad probably liked to fiddle with the dial and showed her the worn-down areas. He then demonstrated how her dad most likely kept his hand in his pocket based on the wear on the watch’s side. The repairman’s assessments were right on and brought back vivid memories. My friend’s father had died 18 years earlier, and these recollections of her dad’s qualities brought her so much pleasure. Her husband now wears the watch. My friend confided that every time she sees it she is reminded of the characteristics the repairman highlighted, and it never fails to make her smile as she remembers her dad.
The holiday period is an especially tough time when you’ve lost loved ones. What a gift to give a friend or family member: shared memories of a loved one recently or long gone. If a virtual stranger could evoke joy and gratitude, just imagine what you can do if you share a memory.
Years ago when I was cleaning out, I found a birthday card from my Aunt Helen who had died several years earlier. The message was just too funny to keep to myself. She wrote, “Dearest Robbie. Aunt Dot reminded me to mail your card on time and I assured her I would. Don’t tell her it’s late. Much love, Aunt Helen.” I sent an email to my cousins and shared the message. One wrote to thank me for the memory; the other wrote to say it gave her such a laugh, as it was so typical of her mom. A simple sharing had made both of their days.
So what memories do you hold? Whatever they are, share them. Give the gift of loving remembrance. You’ll bring some warmth to a holiday season for friends and family missing a loved one.

St. John Chrysostom (347–407) by Jenny Schroedel
St. John Chrysostom was born to Christian parents in 347 in Antioch, Syria. As a young man, he studied for a career in law, and his professor, Libanius, was in awe of his eloquence. He felt that John had tremendous potential. When St. John was baptized as a young man, he decided to devote his talents to the church instead of to a career in law.
He eventually became a monk, and later a priest. During his years of solitary prayer, he nearly ruined his health because of his strict ascetic disciplines. But those years were rich, fruitful years. Because of the long hours spent in prayer, he had many treasures to offer the world when he entered back into it.
During his years as a priest, his greatest strength was also his greatest liability. Short in stature — only five feet tall — he was nonetheless a powerful personality. His preaching drew large crowds, attracting much attention and many followers. But he also alienated some important people because of his desire to strip the church of excess and to challenge the local rulers to live more simply and charitably.
By the time he was forty-nine years old, he was elected to become Patriarch of Constantinople. During his reign, he raised the hackles of the Empress Eudoxia by openly chastising her in his sermons, as well as likening her to unflattering biblical figures like Jezebel. He was extremely critical of opulence and luxury, refusing all invitations to banquets and giving away many of the material treasures that accompanied his position.
In 401 A.D., he deposed six bishops and made more enemies. He was demoted and sent into exile, but an earthquake terrified those responsible for his banishment and he was recalled. St. John continued to be a lively speaker and writer, and refused to soften the tone of his sermons. Despite his many supporters, he was again exiled. After three years in Curusus in Armenia, he was sent to Pontus. The journey there was incredibly difficult — the weather was harsh and he traveled on foot. Although he often complained of exhaustion, he was forced to continue on, and he died on September 14, 407. His last words were, “Glory be to God for all things!”
The bitter memory of St. John’s death lingered in the hearts of many Christians. St. John’s student, Proclus, who served as Patriarch of Constantinople, once preached a sermon about St. John. Those who heard the sermon were deeply moved. They begged the Patriarch to have the relics transferred back to Constantinople.
The Emperor, Theodosius II (the son of St. John’s archnemesis, the Empress Eudoxia), agreed to have the relics moved, but the men he sent were unable to lift St. John’s body. When Theodosius received word that the transfer was unsuccessful, he suddenly realized his oversight — he had forgotten to apologize on behalf of his mother for all that St. John had suffered. He sent a formal apology to be read over the relics. Immediately afterward, his men were able to lift the relics.
When the relics arrived in Constantinople, the Patriarch opened the coffin and discovered that the body of St. John was incorrupt. The church swarmed with people, who stayed beside the body of St. John all through the day and night. When the Emperor approached the coffin, he tearfully asked for forgiveness. The following morning, St. John’s body was carried to the Church of the Apostles, and all the people cried “Receive back thy throne, father!” At this, witnesses saw St. John open his mouth and say, “Peace be to all.”
St. John is commemorated on September 14. He left behind an impressive collection of sermons and writings. His liturgy continues to be celebrated each Sunday in Eastern Orthodox churches (although it is not entirely clear how much of the service he was directly responsible for). The bulk of his sermons were not committed to paper, but many of his letters, exegetical works, and books, especially On the Priesthood, have become classics and are read to this day.
The people were so inspired by his sermons and oratorical skills that they gave him, posthumously, the honorific title of Chrysostom (meaning golden mouthed in Greek) in tribute to his preaching skills.

Bloem is not the only Dutch writer to have used the November weather of the Low Lands to set a dreary, forlorn tone. Willem Elsschot's novella 'Will o' the Wisp' ('Het dwaallicht', 1946) starts:
A dreary November evening, with a soaking drizzle that drove even the bravest of us from the streets, and it was too far to trudge through that icy curtain of rain to the bar I always drank at.
'Will o' the Wisp' was the last published work of Flemish novelist Willem Elsschot, and it remains one of his most cherished stories.
Best known for his novels 'Soft Soap' ('Lijmen', 1924) and 'The Leg' ('Het Been', 1938) and the novella 'Cheese' ('Kaas'), Elsschot has a towering reputation in Dutch literature as one of the greatest stylists, whose work remains as sparklingly fresh and shrewdly ironic as when it first appeared. Only some of his work is available in English, and while a translation of 'Will o' the Wisp' exists (translated by Alex Brotherton and published as 'Three Novels', 1962, also including 'Soft Soap' and 'The Leg'), it is sadly out of print and virtually impossible to find. Perhaps at some point a publisher will dare a reissue, but in the mean time some extended quotes will give a taste of this little masterpiece...
Because 'Will o' the Wisp' is a timeless piece of literature. At a mere 50 pages, it forms the concentrated statement of the themes that run through all Elsschot's work, and that here take on a mythical, even mystical quality. Elsschot was a sharp but compassionate observer of man's yearnings - from his most lofty aspirations to his basest desires - and his inevitable disillusionments. Here, with deceptive simplicity, he shows human endeavors to amount to no more than chasing phantom lights in the distance.

In a long overdue overhaul of this website, but in time for its 10th anniversary later this year, I have implemented three changes:
- A responsive layout, meaning the site adapts gracefully to the plethora of different screen sizes out there, and in particular should improve readability on tablets and phones.
- A new font to replace boring old Verdana. Nobile is a no-frills webfont selected for pleasant long-reading.
- The start of a new portfolio section with a number of recent projects. More to be added in the future.
Traditional features like the monthly background image (now in its 86th month) are of course unchanged.
Any bugs or glitches? Let me know!
A challenging close of the IFFR on Saturday with a Grand Talk program that consisted of a screening of the 1927 USSR propaganda film 'The Fall of the Romanov Dynasty', German philosopher Peter Sloterdijk reading a chapter from his forthcoming book, and a discussion between Sloterdijk and Romanian director Andrei Ujica to connect these two trains of thought.
The following is from some notes scribbled in the dark, so rather sketchy...
Esfir Shub's 'The Fall of the Romanov Dynasty' - a silent film performed with live piano music - was made for the 10th anniversary of the Russian revolution. Looking back on the period 1913-1917, from the eve of WWI to the establishment of the socialist state, it is composed entirely of archive footage, pioneering a new subgenre of documentary filmmaking as well as opening an astonishing window on life in Russia and Western Europe a century ago.
The film's communist propaganda frame shows most explicitly in the title cards, which sarcastically comment on the old Russian order of landowners, priests and bourgeois capitalists - let alone the perfidious European order of speculators, industrialists and "capitalist plunderers fighting for markets", who all stand to gain from the approaching WWI. The titles also frequently employ ironic quotation marks, denouncing the "holy fathers" and "his majesty".
Sloterdijk commented on the film saying that if you would take out the title cards, the impression that remains is one of moving masses - endless, agitated, marching masses of people without individuality. "The effect is unheimisch, as if whoever still considers himself an individual is betraying the collective."
This observation provides the link between the film and the chapter from his new book, announced by his publisher as 'Modernity's Enfants Terribles' ('Die schrecklichen Kinder der Neuzeit'). Also dealing with the fate of the last czar, Nicholas II, and his family, it explores the events of WWI, both in Europe and Russia, and the start of what he terms a "century of disinhibitions".
After the "total degradation of individuality" of WWI, 'civil life' would never be the same again. In a variation on Heidegger's concept of "being-unto-death", Sloterdijk talks of "being-unto-a-mass-grave" - a new existential state in post-war Europe that at the time was signalled by Spanish philosopher Ortega y Gasset in 'The Revolt of the Masses' (1930). This state of perpetual agitation made demobilization impossible in many parts of Europe, including Germany, and led the masses to abandon what Mussolini called "the horror of comfortable life" for a march forever forward - and ultimately into WWII.
The same agitated, revolutionized masses were what Lenin found when he returned to Russia after the February revolution of 1917. Thoroughly steeped in the history of the French revolutions of 1789 and 1793, he realized that the only way forward for a revolutionized people was more revolution, in an iterative process to prevent at all costs a return to normality - a principle later perfected by Stalin and Mao.
In 1917 Russia this meant first, the October revolution and after that, all-out class warfare. This included the establishment of the infamous Cheka - which created an "informalization of executions" by uniting in one organization prosecution, judge, jury and execution - as well as the gulags and persecution of former royals. In this context the fate of the czar's family is telling: while Lenin first planned to stage an edifying show trial, he later abandoned this idea in favor of having the family summarily executed in a Yekaterinburg cellar.
For Sloterdijk this event also symbolized a wider break with the past, a cutting off of historical continuity, in line with Lenin's maxim that the revolution doesn't need historians. The archetype of the new, modern man that emerged during this time is the bastard, that is, the child that doesn't inherit from the previous generation. It is the one who is free from the weight of history, and the most motivated to climb the social ladder - the self-made man who embodies the century of disinhibitions.
It will be interesting to see how Sloterdijk develops this archetype in his book and who, exactly, are 'Modernity's Enfants Terribles' - especially in light of his observation that today we are again seeing a rising hatred of individuality and liberalism.

The parish of Birstall (or Birstal as it was used to be spelt) covered a significant area of the local countryside. At one time it included the whole area now sub-divided into the parishes of Tong (1727); Whitechapel (1732); Birkenshaw, Drub, East Bierley and Hunsworth (1842); Heckmondwike (1842); Cleckheaton St John (1842); Gomersal (1846); Wyke (1847); Roberttown (including Norristhorpe) (1847); Drighlington (with Adwalton) (1847); Liversedge (1860); Brownhill – formed partly from Birstall and partly from Batley (1871); Oakenshaw (1877); Cleckheaton, St Luke (1878); Heckmondwike – St Saviours (1872); Hightown (1911); and Scholes (1929). It is for this reason that the Birstall Parish Church records are so significant for the whole of this area and many wish to consult them whilst researching family history.
Since 1538 every parish has been required to keep registers of baptisms, marriages and burials. Very few of the very earliest have survived. Ours, from 1558, are among the oldest surviving in West Yorkshire. Our oldest registers are deposited at the Diocesan Record Office in Wakefield for safekeeping under controlled conditions. Microfiche copies may be viewed there (see Note 1) and also at reference departments of the public libraries in Batley, Cleckheaton and Huddersfield.
Transcripts from the registers have been published by the Parish Register Section of the Yorkshire Archaeological Society. Most usefully these volumes have an index by name. There are copies at St Peter’s church and in the reference sections of the public libraries of Batley, Cleckheaton and Huddersfield. Alternatively, the volumes may be bought from the Y A S. (See Note 2).
It is important to remember that nonconformity flourished in this area from the eighteenth century. For instance in 1825 there were 5 churches in the old parish of Birstall but 19 ‘dissenting’ chapels. Chapels kept their own records, many of which have been deposited in one of the county archives. (see Note 3). Until 1837 a marriage was only legal if it took place in a parish church.
More recent Birstall registers (from the early 20th century) are retained in the church safe and may be consulted by appointment with the Verger. In the first instance contact the Vicar. A search fee is chargeable.
Gravestone inscriptions are another useful source of information as they sometimes record the names of more than one generation. An indexed transcription of Birstall gravestones prior to about 1940 may be seen in the Local History Section of Bradford Central Library. They also have a consolidated index of the names appearing on gravestones in 120 graveyards in Bradford and the surrounding area.

Icons and people - Muhammad Ali smiling with Lorraine Adams, Los Angeles, Aug 1964
This is a new and growing selection of photography of iconic figures, as well as ordinary people going about their life in a different moment in time. Some of these photography are published for the very first time through Modern Art Etc. worldwide.
In this series, we present Harry Adams' photography of iconic Americans, some of them well known throughout the world, not as African Americans, but simply, Americans, who have brought their talents, fortitude, creativity to the world. Some of them are heroes of all time, who have dedicated their lives to advancing equal opportunities, making a fairer, more equitable, civil society. Their indelible influence changed the world.
About this photo:
This photo of Muhammad Ali is published for the first time via gallery in Los Angeles.
Capturing a lighthearted, impromptu moment is this picture of Muhammad Ali and Lorraine Adams (wife of photographer, now in her 90’s). This was taken when Harry Adams brought Ali to their house in Windsor Hills, Calif., for an impromptu photo shoot. Mrs. Adams and Ali had an instant connection especially when Ali started his unique form of humor causing both of them to smile.
This was about 6 months after his historic Liston-Clay fight on February, 1964 in Miami Beach, when a young Cassius Clay (as Muhammad Ali was before his name change), became the youngest boxer, at age 22, to take the title from a reigning heavyweight champion.
The two fights between Muhammad Ali and Sonny Liston for boxing's World Heavyweight Championship were among the most anticipated, watched and controversial fights in the sport's history. Sports Illustrated magazine named their first meeting, the Liston–Clay fight “as the fourth greatest sports moment of the twentieth century”. Sports Illustrated magazine.
Introduction to Harry Adams:
Harry Adams (b. 1918, Arkansas – d. 1988, Los Angeles ) was one of the best-known members of the Los Angeles African American community. Adams worked as a freelancer for the California Eagle and Los Angeles Sentinel for 35 years. He trained at the California School of Photography and Graphic Design and although he took these photographs as part of his journalistic assignments, his artistic ability to capture the essence of a particular moment in time earned him the moniker “One Shot Harry”. His collection is particularly rich in its images of the prominent African Americans who defined his era, but also of ordinary life, documenting social life, schools, civil rights organizations, sports and cultural events.
“His work is not only a contribution to journalism, but also part of our history.” LA Times

Howdy Folks, I wanted to alertyou to a new book about the Pacific Crest Trail. Barney “Scout” Mann, longtime PCTA board member and trail angel has produced a beautiful coffee table book with amazing stories, and a comprehensive history of the trail. I had heard about this book almost a year ago, and kept the October 9th on my calendar to order a copy. The pages are thick and well made and there’s even a custom map of the trail included in the book. I have been really enjoying reading more about the PCT’s unique characters that have shaped the trail over the years. Somehow it has reinvigorated nostalgia of my own thru-hike in 2012. People often ask me if I would hike the trail again. Why not? After all its the most beautiful long trail in the world. When I say that I don’t exactly mean the views are nice. They are. I mean is the actual trail itself is an amazing place to be. Any of it. But while we are skiing this winter or planning for summer adventures seriously, check out this book. The proceeds go back to the PCTA. In fact buy a second one as a gift.


This is the first in a series of quarterly updates that will synthesize and share our OA Good Practice Pathfinder projects’ progress, outputs and lessons learnt plus any practical tools and reports in order to discover what’s working well for institutions in a real world environment of open access (OA) implementation.
Given the wide scope and broad impact of research funders’ OA policies, the Pathfinder projects are helping us discover what’s working well for institutions with varying levels of research base, finance and human resource as they implement OA policies. Each project is exploring a range of diverse issues relating to OA implementation, from identifying ways to manage and monitor compliance with funder and institutional mandates to management of publication charges and how to advocate good practice around OA implementation to researchers. Although there won’t be a one size fits all solution there will be a rich variety of experience and support to draw upon.
These updates, along with workshops and online interactions, are a key strand of the Pathfinder work as they will enable research and information managers to learn from the Pathfinder projects and each other, thereby making the most of the knowledge and experience from across the wider community.

SAGE was Anthony Mesi's debut novel. Taken from real life experiences, Sage takes the reader on a fantastic journey where one man's struggle to find himself soon evolves into a fight to save mankind. The book meshes historical fiction with a modern day love story that appeals to young adult and adult readers alike. What began as a recreational writing project has now spawned a second published novel, "SAGE Volume II." A third book is underway.
Anthony has a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from S.U.N.Y Geneseo and a Master's degree in Health Administration from Villanova University. His writing interests include paranormal, mystery, and adventure in the young adult and new adult genres. He and his wife, Jennifer, have three children and live in Avon, New York.

«Corpus of Russian Inscriptions»
«Corpus of Russian Inscriptions» is created with the objective of preservation, systematization and dissemination of knowledge about the monumental epigraphy of Medieval Russia. All epigraphic monuments of Medieval Russia, both preserved and lost – but known by publications, handwritten notes, photos are subject for inclusion in the Corpus.
Epigraphic monuments are inscriptions on white-stone and ceramic plates, gravestones and crosses, wooden panels, walls of temples – epitaphs, patrimonial memorial tables, synodics, memorable records, poetic and sacred texts, inscriptions on the construction and painting of temples, as well as other inscriptions fixing memory of the fact, the person or event.
«Corpus of Russian Inscriptions» is based mostly on epigraphic monuments of the XV-XVII centuries and, to a lesser extent, XI-XIV centuries. Among the monuments of the XVIII, only the inscriptions made in the tradition of Moscow Rus are included into the Corpus . The Corpus also includes inscriptions in Latin, Greek, German, Italian and Dutch languages performed within the territory of Russia during this period. Particular attention is paid to revealing of previously unknown epigraphic monuments.
The Corpus is formed, first of all, on the basis of materials of objective field documenting of epigraphic monuments. In this process, the field documenting and interpretation of the data are physically separated, which ensures the implementation of fundamental principles of scientific research:
– Elimination of errors in the collection of initial data.
– Possibility of independent verification of reading and interpretation of the inscription.
Both documenting and research of monuments is carried out with wide application of modern digital methods and technologies.
At the present stage the Corpus is formed in electronic version. Further printed publication summarizing results of researches is planned.
The database of epigraphic monuments replenished during creation of «Corpus of Russian Inscriptions» is the open resource, available to everyone interested in Russian epigraphy. Documentation (three-dimensional models of monuments in initial resolution and their derivatives) collected during formation of the Corpus , are provided to participating researchers for preparation of publications on separate subject matters – articles, monographs, bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral works.
«Corpus of Russian Inscriptions» is created by research team of the Center of Epigraphic Studies of the Dmitry Pozharskiy University with the support of the Russian Foundation for the Promotion of Education and Science. Practical management of activities on the creation of the Corpus is carried out by Scientific and Technical Board.

What you should NOT donate…
Almost every book swap, people donate books that they cherish but feel they no longer have room for, or worse, books that it pains them to put in geniza and so donate. The end result is simply causing volunteers who are already working very hard to have to work harder, drivers who have already volunteered their time and their gas to have to take that extra trip. Please sort very carefully so that we can finish our jobs more easily. Before you donate, think if you would purchase a book in that condition.
Think why you are giving the book away? Is it a new bestseller that you just purchased and finished and now want to pass on? Terrific, please donate it. Is it a book that you got 15 years ago and it’s a classic but you know you’ll never read it again? What are the chances someone else will? Meanwhile, here are some basic rules to follow, and some donations we have received that we shouldn’t have…
- Books that are torn (missing front cover, back cover, pages)
- books with yellow pages
- Hebrew books (other than religious books, which are allowed, and children’s books in Hebrew are allowed)
- books that are outdated (1979 Small Engines, I985 Israel tour guide)
- Small siddurim, small Tehillim, benchers, free Hagadot from Rami-Levy (and other stores)
- Free books such as the IKEA catalogue
- Single parts to a set of books (3 out of 4 Mishnayot)
- Religious books that are not in excellent condition and belong in geniza
Please look through the books you want to donate carefully. Make sure they are not falling apart. Make sure the pages aren’t yellow and there are no ripped pages. Make sure they are relevant to our community and up-to-date. No old tourism books, no old technologies. Even if they are classics, if the quality is good, no one will take it.

The death of Mary - Michelangelo Merisi de Caravaggio. 369x245
In this painting, written for the altar of the Roman church of Santa Maria della Scala in Trastera, Caravaggio, the reformer artist, gives his interpretation of the traditional plot of the Assumption of the Virgin. Traditionally, death Virgin mary was not regarded as a tragedy, because the Mother of God, who survived to old age after death, ascended to heaven and reunited forever with her beloved Son.
Caravaggio saw in this plot precisely a tragedy that plunged into the deep grief of the apostles. The image of the deceased Virgin speaks too eloquently of the suffering and mortal torment experienced. Her body was painted with the degree of realism that the customers of the work were not ready for, and the close friend of the artist, a girl of easy virtue, served as the model for the Blessed Virgin. This caused the customer to abandon the finished picture.


On March 16, UMOJA (Concord Academy’s Black Student Affinity Group) launched a two-part screening of Summer of Soul (...Or, When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised), a 2021 documentary about the 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival. Students were ushered into the PAC during what would have normally been Wednesday Club Block. There, the UMOJA co-heads, Ravyn Hamer ’22 and Casey Bakarani ’22, gave a brief introduction to the film. They championed Summer of Soul as an artistic and historic representation of Black love, and it did not disappoint.
Summer of Soul was not constructed like a normal documentary. Directed by Questlove, the legendary drummer of The Roots, the movie is composed primarily of archival footage that had been lost for 50 years. It is intercut with interview footage from performers and audience members who were in attendance. The archival footage is gorgeous, electric footage that documents the festival from multiple different perspectives. The camera dips and dives into the audience before soaring over the stage. It’s a miracle that this footage was uncovered after so many decades. It only makes you wonder how much history has been lost because nobody was there to document it.
The Harlem Cultural Festival ran from 1967 to 1974 in the historically-Black upper Manhattan neighborhood. The 1969 festival featured performances from Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone, Sly and the Family Stone, The 5th Dimension, and many other musical pioneers. Financed by Republican mayor John Lindsay and guarded by the Harlem Branch of the Black Panthers, the festival signified a breath of fresh air, a temporary halt so that Black residents of Harlem and New York City could celebrate, party, and have fun. Journalists, preachers, and audience members recounted the “unapologetic Black joy,” they felt at the festival. It also marked a moment in history where Black people were reclaiming the word “Black.” Chants of “Black is beautiful” echoed through Morris Mount Park, a powerful message during a time of escalating white supremacy, cyclical poverty, and institutional violence.
The final few minutes of Summer of Soul is some of the best cinema of the past year. Sly and the Family Stone finish a magnetic performance of “Higher” which ends in the whole crowd chanting harmoniously. It then cuts to a middle-aged man who was a young boy in 1969 as he watches back footage from the festival. Teary-eyed, he says, “You know, it’s funny. You put memories away, and you don’t realize, sometimes you don’t even know if they’re real. So, it’s almost confirmation that what I knew was real. I’m not crazy! Thank you! I knew I wasn’t crazy, brother. I knew I was not crazy. But now I know I’m not. And this is just confirmation and not only that, how beautiful it was.”

I have reading moods, sometimes I can read several books at once and finish them in a timely manner. Other times it takes me f-o-r-e-v-e-r to get through even the shortest of books.
I'm sure everyone has their own guidelines by which they choose books. Mine are pretty simple, keep it clean in language and situation. I don't mind a few mild expletives, as far as adult situations, suggest it, leave most of it to the imagination. Isn't that part of what reading is about, using your imagination?
Due to following the crowd on book choices in the past, I usually don't rush to read books that are hyped by the general public. I have found my taste in books (and movies for that matter) does not usually coincide with the general consensus. That being said, I will give most any book a chance.
I read The Hunger Games on the recommendation of my 11 year-old niece. The book began as a very slow read for me. It took me nearly three months to finish. Probably because I wasn't in a very strong reading mood and aversion to the hype. I wasn't expecting it to be that good. Not long into the book, I was reminded of the short story The Lottery by Shirley Jackson.
The Hunger Games is a story of young teens living in a world of have's and have-not's under strict class regulations enforced by the Capitol. There is a lot of killing and a love triangle building with some kissing appropriate to the situation. I never expected the love story angle as I began reading. Everyone has an opinion about what is appropriate for what age group to read, in my opinion, I did not feel it was appropriate for an 11 year-old. I would recommend it to the 14+ age group. I actually liked this book and to keep up with my niece, who has finished the series, I'm on to book two, Catching Fire.


The first Atheist Association in Turkey is founded a few weeks ago.
This is not only the first atheist organisation in Turkey, but also the first one in the large region of Middle East and Caucasus. And the first one in a country with a predominantly muslim population.
In a way, this is a historic event. History books in the future may mention this as a note.
As an internet activist for Turkish atheism, I have also been a part of this process and supported this initiative in any way I could. Read More »
Summary: This book is the first one of its kind. It is written by a Turkish author, who is an atheist with a muslim background, on the subject of atheism. It is written for the muslims, looking at atheism from their point of view, and answering their questions about atheism and explaining atheism to them. Read More »


I remember being in third grade and picking up a copy of Lowis Lowrey's The Giver from the library. Later that same year, my teacher had us read it as a class. That was when my love of dystopias began, and it continued through high school with the young adult genre. These stories were fast paced, felt close to the narrator, and gave me hope, even as adults talked about dystopias as hope-less.
What seemed like a disparity between my dystopian expereince and everyone else's led to my research of the dystopian genre. I ask questions like "What is the connection between dystopias and politics?" "What aspects of the young adult genre interests young readers?" "Why do some readers see dystopias as inherently hopeful, and others see dystopias as inherently depressing?" "What is the political value of a dystopia?" "How can dystopias be used in the classroom?" "How do dystopias subvert societal constructs like gender roles?" "Why did the dystopian revolution of strong female leads begin?" "Why are people now tired of the Strong Female Lead?"

Titles vs Text: What Can I Use in My Writing Without Getting Permission?
Because so many of us find other artists' works important to our own creative process, it's natural that our characters do, too. So, our heroine might hum a song as she gets ready for work, or our hero might remember an inspiring passage from a book he read. But those songs and books, as well as TV shows, movie dialogue, and even web content and photographs, might be copyrighted material. If it is, you'll be expected to undergo the long process of getting permission to use it.
What can you use in the text of your story without worrying about copyright?
Titles. Titles can't be copyrighted, so chances are that if you say that your character was reading a book called Mystic River, Dennis Lehane can't do anything about that. So, if you want to name the song your character is humming, you can. You just can't quote the lyrics without permission.
Words or passages from the public domain. A copyright expires after 70 years (with some exceptions, see here), so after that, the content of the song, show, or book is fair use unless the copyright holder gets it renewed. That's why we can have books like Pride and Prejudice and Zombies; the original Jane Austen novel has moved into the public domain. Here's a site that can help you find out what books are in the public domain, and here's one for songs.
Things you made up. Why not avoid usage issues altogether and make up the lyrics to your song, or write for yourself the important book passage? If your character is rocking out to that classic hit, “I Love Vampires and They Love Me,” you can say so much more than you could with someone else's words.
Passages you have permission to use. Whether it's a song or book, you need to contact the publisher and explain what you want to do with their work.
What's not allowed?
This one's easy: everything else. You can't use someone else's text unless you have permission from that author/band/songwriter/photographer...whoever holds the copyright. You must contact the publisher to get that permission.
Not even if:
You met the lead singer backstage at a concert last year.
You give them a shout-out in the acknowledgments of your book.
You make it clear that these words are their property, not yours.
You change a word here and there, making it not quite the same as the original.
Think of it this way; you're a writer, right? You wouldn't want someone just using your words without your permission. You might be flattered, but you didn't work your butt off for flattery. All artists and their representatives get final control over what happens to their work—and so will you, when the time comes.

|"Travel Day" Celebrates Haiku Poet|
|Monday, 16 May 2011 09:48|
16th May is "Travel Day (tabi no hi)" in Japan, with the date chosen to mark the dayin 1689 on which Matsuo Basho, Japan's most famous haiku poet, set off on his journey along The Narrow Road To The Deep North (Oku no Hosomichi), a travel journal punctuated with some of his most famous haiku poems.
Basho's The Narrow Road is one of the greatest texts in Japanese classical literature, and is an account of his journey, on foot, from Edo (Tokyo) towards the Oku, which means the interior, or the north. The text has most notably been translated by Japanese literature scholar Donald Keene.
Travel Day was established by the Nihon Tabi Pen Club, a national association dedicated to travel writing.


I have spent countless hours in study rooms on the third floor, delirious with a semester’s-worth of information and high off of sugar-coated and calorie-injected junk food purchased on a desperate whim at Greenberrys. I have been hushed by fellow library patrons who are not so lucky to enjoy the company of others suffering this same hysteria. I’ve feasted on WaWa subs and macaroni-and-cheese late into the night preceding my Comparative Politics final, ordered Chinese dumplings and General Tso’s chicken to tide me over until my Global History paper was finished, and polished off several slices of Domino’s pizza while submitting Economics assignments due at midnight. During exam week, all-nighters were made bearable only by a quick trip to the s[tudent]exchange to pick up pints of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream. My friend Michael and I attribute our finals successes to heaping spoonfuls of Phishfood and Cherry Garcia. Swem is a place that provides both an outlet and a sanctuary that meets all the needs of the busy college student — silent or social, snacks and massages or distraction-free, the many floors lend the library utility that extends well beyond the Dewey Decimal System and JSTOR.
When I was at William & Mary, I spent a considerable amount of my time in Swem. Between classes to catch up on reading, after dinner for group study sessions, and even early mornings in a last-minute cram for the big test. Despite all the blood, sweat, and tears committed to this place, some of my fondest memories of W&M are at Swem. And no matter how many comparisons you draw between myself and Brian Johnson (see: The Breakfast Club), I will not be embarrassed or ashamed of my steadfast devotion to the brainiest place on campus. Swem is truly representative of the W&M attitude, culture, and lifestyle, may have you. The constant struggle for balance between academic success and a thriving social life amongst TWAMPs (that is, of course, Typical William & Mary People) such as myself is manifested in the experience that is Swem.
The library at St Andrews, on the other hand, is not a place of either personal triumphs or group conviviality. Here, you’re very much on your own, and the loneliness and barrenness is enough to discourage both determination and motivation. Especially around the end of term, when stress levels have peaked and tension is on the rise, while Swem offers a safe-haven for its students and fosters the feeling that “we’re all in this together,” the university library at St Andrews is without sympathy or compassion. Swem is always affectionately referred to by its name, but the library at St Andrews is an anonymous place, one unidentifiable and undistinguished–the generic Library. Inside, the building is cold and distant, the whitewashed walls reminiscent of some sort of asylum where students are its inmates. Not at all like the vibrant greens and golds of Swem’s interior. And whereas Swem welcomes all with open arms, the swipe of an ID is required for entrance into (and exits out of) the St Andrews library.
There are only 10 study rooms (opposed to Swem’s 32), so good luck trying to reserve a spot within the next 24 hours. If you manage to snag one, it will likely be double booked, so get ready for an awkward stand-off. The Library’s layout doesn’t encourage long-term study shifts, as outlets are few and far between. Space is also small, and cramped; the interior designers clearly having opted for chic and modern over practicality. You might want to stretch before you make your way inside, because a few laps around the place to find a seat is sure to have you sweating — the heat is set to three degrees above comfortable and the sheer mass of bodies stuffed under layers of wool have birthed a steamy environ. Worst of all, food is strictly prohibited above the first floor. Whatever happened to the concept of brain food? I usually sneak in a Cadbury bar, or a few biscuits — If I’m sly they might not rat me out, but I’ve seen it done more often than not.
Many a time, I was forced to return back to my room at Sallies, with a dead battery in my laptop, an empty stomach, and armfuls of work still to be completed. Never had Swem expelled me from its doors so unsatisfied. Yet, despite the disappointment so often associated with the Library at St Andrews, the town itself offers a myriad of other venues for study that serves to cushion the blow. Although W&M does offer establishments such as The Grind and Aromas, these do not compete with the café culture so prominent at St A. North Point, Cottage Kitchen, Bibi’s, Gorgeous, Taste, Janetta’s, Bean Scene, the Union and even Costa are great places not only to caffeinate, but also to buckle down and get to work. Then there are the pubs, which are prime study environments. I am a huge fan of cracking open the books while sipping on a pint–it helps take the edge off what might be a late night. I especially recommend The Central and Aikman’s.For more study scenes, also try: the library in St Mary’s Quad, the Classics Library (Swallowgate), the library in the Physics building (if you’re over by the gym a lot), and finally the infamous 24 hour computer lab off of Butts Wynd (which I honestly hope you will never have to resort to–it is a sad and desolate place rivaling the main Library in terms of desperation and defeat). Another suggestion would be the study room or library in your freshman hall or dorm. This is not where you’re going to have the most hardcore study sessions, but it is a good place to do some work and make some friends.So although I do find myself home-sick for the one-stop Swem culture of William and Mary, the ample alternatives at St Andrews force students to branch out, and experience the town that the University is a part of. And if you’re ever looking for a study buddy at St A this year, I’d be happy to let you know where I’ve set up shop for the day!

Martin Luther King Jr. gave many speeches and sermons in his lifetime. His "I Have A Dream" speech is one that we learn about in school - and is his most famous speech. Have you ever read the speech or wondered what it means? In Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s I Have A Dream Speech In Translation: What It Really Means. by Leslie J. Holland you will learn about United States history and the times Martin Luther King Jr. lived in. His speech is explained in everyday words so that we can better understand Dr. King's message. This book is filled with pictures that help make history come alive. There are many words that are explained to help us understand things like: civil rights, oppression, segregation, discrimination, and nullification. This book includes a list of the "Top Five Reasons to Care About the I Have a Dream Speech" If you like to learn about history & Martin Luther King Jr. - I think you will enjoy this book.
In I Have a Dream: The Story Behind Martin Luther King Jr's Most Famous Speech. by Kerry A. Graves, you will learn even more about Dr. King and the Civil Rights movement. This book gives you a brief biography of Martin Luther King Jr. along with many historical photographs. Topics in this books include: Jim Crow Laws, The Civil Rights Movement, Nonviolent Protest Methods, The March on Washington, and, After the Speech. One of the things that I found most interesting was that King began writing his speech just four days before the March on Washington. The speech was typed at 4 a.m. on August 28th by a typist - but King added notes to this copy that same day. The book has a photo of a draft page of the speech - written by King. We learn that instead of just reading the speech as written, King began to speak about what he was feeling in that moment. The words "I have a dream" had been in other speeches King had made. Once the crowd of a quarter of a million people began to respond in such a positive way he began to use these words to bring home his message. This book also has a time line, glossary, and a list of more books and internet sites for you to explore.

Hard to believe that this semester is already coming to an end!
My work on Decomposing Bodies this spring focused on two different areas: reading and research about the history of policing and prisons in the United States, and data management of the images and related documents making up the heart of the DB dataset. At first glance, these two endeavors seem wildly different, and they certainly require different ways of thinking and skillsets, but I think that they are both essential part of the work that makes DB an interesting and engaging project, and that you can’t have one without the other.
Decomposing Bodies is a digital humanities project, and the work that I’ve done on it this past spring has been both digital and humanistic. After the Data (after)Lives exhibit in the Fall, we felt it was important to update DB’s presence on the web to reflect our most recent work, and some of the ideas, tools, and visualizations that have come out of it. This involved updating the public Decomposing Bodies website with a timeline of the project’s history, updated bibliography and contributors, and the addition of an interactive visualization of the faces and measurements of some of the people documented by Bertillonage that make up DB.
Along with updating the website, I have also worked to update the documentation of the transcriptions of the Bertillon cards in Omeka. I can now say that over 1,800 cards have been completely transcribed, and 700 more have been at least partially transcribed. This represents approximately 20% of the cards in the Decomposing Bodies collection. This is in large part thanks to the work of the graduate and undergraduate students working in the VMW, including two First Experience in Research students, Joe Jang and Ashley Cipcic, who not only helped immensely with transcription this term, but also conducted their own research about the racial and social demographics of the people in the cards they transcribed.
Engaging with the social and cultural situation that led to the implementation of Bertillonage in the Ohio penal system was another avenue of my work for this semester. This is the ‘human’ part of this project. I have been reading about the history of the prison system in the United States, and the particular circumstances that lead to the implementation of Bertillonage in Ohio at the turn of the last century. Some of my readings have included: “At Hard Labor: Rediscovering the 19th Century Prison”, by Martin Miller, Forgotten Reformer : Robert McClaughry and Criminal Justice Reform in Nineteenth-Century America, by Frank Morn, and the Proceedings of the annual congress of the National Prison Association, held at Cincinnati, September 25-30, 1890. It’s impossible to disconnect the prison reform movement of the late 19th century from the shift in the goals of incarceration that was happening concurrently, or from the rapid expansion of the prison-industrial complex in the United States today. And no part of that process can be separated from the understanding of race in Reconstruction Era America.
I will be continuing to work on Decomposing Bodies over the Summer Term, and I hope to expand my work in both the data management and historical contexts of this project. There are so many directions to go with DB, and I feel lucky to get to explore some of them, especially as they relate to my own research interests. See you in the summer, then!

About the Collection
scopio Cityzines collection is the publishing medium for the project CITYZINES | ESPAÇO F-FAUP - structured around an annual program designed to promote the publishing world of Portuguese alternative publications known as fanzines (zines) and linked to the theme of the city (city), i.e. focusing on the multifaceted richness of urban, architectural and visual culture that characterizes these urban areas and their life experiences.
The aim is to schedule events and exhibitions on FAUP, and to build a pioneering collection physicist on this type of publications that strategically punctuate our territory and that are, for the most part, often forgotten or known only by a very particular audience.
Even though Portuguese alternative publication are given special interest, the collection is open to authors and projects from other countries so that the range and diversity of its thematic universe - architecture, public space, urban culture, drawing, photography and film - is international and embracing.
The project CITYZINES | ESPAÇO F-FAUP will thus help to create a space for debate and critical commentary, as well as to encourage and promote the production and creation of Portuguese cityzines at a national and international levels.
The universe of interest of scopio editions is, generically, that of Architectue, Art and Image (AAI) and, specifically, that of Documental and Artistic Photography related with Architecture, City and Territory. SCOPIO Editions has a dynamic structure integrating periodical and non-periodical publications, with the aim of divulging the several works and authors who use or research the universe of Architecture, Art and Image, with special focus on Documentary and Artistic photography, related with Architecture, City and territory, in a critical, exploratory and innovative approach.


Note: I put Graham Hancock under the Lost Civilization" menu. Please see his videos there.
Note2: There are a lot of videos out there, with a lot of different opinions. I try to stay with the people who seem to be closer to main stream. I'm actually more interested in the Lost Civilization concepts of Graham Hancock and other investigators.

The Polk Vision Literacy Team is focused on improving the literacy proficiency of students in Polk County.
During 2018-2019 the Public Education Partnership (PEP) and Polk Vision worked collaboratively in the Winter Haven community to develop better awareness of resources to support Kindergarten Readiness and the improvement of 3rd Grade Reading Scores. Currently the Team is working towards replicating and scaling the well-established PEP efforts in other communities across the county.
During the summer of 2019, the Literacy Team piloted efforts to address “Summer Slide” at 9 locations through the alignment of the Polk County Library Cooperative, and the County Public Schools’ Books Bridge Bus and Nutrition Department’s Summer Food Service program. This enabled each organization to maximize the opportunities of bringing summer story time, free meals and free book distribution to Summer BreakSpot locations around the district. Currently, the Literacy Team is looking to continue the alignment of these efforts into the summer of 2020.
The Literacy Team continues to learn about literacy in our communities, engage partners around literacy resources, align partnerships toward a common goal, and develop solutions that we expect will help improve the literacy rate for young people in our communities. Our team continues to build momentum through the Literacy Directory, focusing on Kindergarten Readiness for our upcoming third edition. With thanks to the Polk County Public Schools Books Bridge program, Polk County Public Schools’ Nutrition, the Polk County Library Cooperative, and Winter Haven Public Education Partnership (PEP), our team is aligning sustainable partnerships around literacy. These partners provide resources and services to nourish young minds and bodies across Polk County.

Kat King is an information architect interested in language, meaning, and the things we make. She currently works as a business intelligence analyst for the University of Michigan Library.
Information professionals are people who work with the stuff of information in their everyday work. We search for and elicit information, we spend time analyzing and synthesizing it, we carefully create and structure it. But understanding exactly what the information is, and where it is in our work can be tricky. Information theory can be a dense and jargon filled, and definitions in academic texts can feel divorced from the practice of actually working with information. In this talk I’ll use simple examples (sorting a set of objects, playing a guessing game, etc) to teach the audience to “see” the information, and then understand information theory concepts. I'll give a basic definition for information, show how the structure of a system determines what is information within it, how humans actually interact with information, and the difference between information and other meaningful content.
In the past I've given talks about this subject that taught the theory by citing the work of academics who study information, but it in this talk I'll teach with examples too keep it accessible.


The Author of the Harry Potter book series is J.K.Rowling
Born in Chepstow, Gwent in 1965, J.K.
Rowling's favorite subjects in school were English and languages. J.K. went to Exeter University, worked as a secretary and
as a teacher, but then fell on hard times. She and her husband divorced shortly after the birth of their daughter and J.K.
Rowling ended up unemployed and living in a tiny flat in Edinburgh with her only child. Of course, maybe it wasn't all bad
because it was during this time that she wrote Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone. The idea for the book came to J.K. Rowling
while on a train ride.
The Scottish Arts Council gave her a grant to finish the first book.
J.K. Rowling named Harry Potter after a childhood friend, Ian Potter.
She writes all of her books by hand. Ouch! She must have been pretty tired by the end of Order of the Phoenix.
asked what mommies do, J.K. Rowling's daughter once replied, "Mommies write!"
"I am an extraordinarily lucky person, doing what I love best in the world. I'm sure that I will always be a writer.
It was wonderful enough just to be published. The greatest reward is the enthusiasm of the readers." - J.K. Rowling

deCoding Asian Urbanism
Farooq Ameen (ed.)
deCoding Asian Urbanism is a captivating exploration into innovative architecture and urban interventions reshaping the landscape of Asian cities. The book highlights projects that embrace the rapid growth, cultural richness, and intricate complexities of the contemporary Asian urban fabric.
The magnitude and speed of 21st-century urbanization are extraordinary, with projections suggesting that Asia’s urban development in the next two decades could surpass the total global urban growth of the past two centuries. As we stand on the brink of this urban revolution, deCoding Asian Urbanism brings together the minds of visionary architects, historians, sociologists, urban designers, and activists from around the world. Their essays offer unique insights into the diverse and multifaceted nature of Asian cities, each an intricate tapestry of history, culture, and aspiration.
This enriching journey through the book is accompanied by a multitude of images, analytical diagrams, maps, and captivating photographs. You’ll find yourself immersed in the ideas and spirited discussions captured in symposium panels at Harvard University’s South Asia Institute. Here, contemporary thinkers and practitioners from various disciplines reveal their innovative design and planning approaches for Asian cities.
deCoding Asian Urbanism transcends the boundaries of mere globalization; it delves into the essence of systemic innovation, elevating the Asian city to new heights. The book is thoughtfully organized into three sections: Decoding the City, where the context is set and the urban puzzle begins to unravel; Mediating the City, which unveils strategic approaches to address the complex urban challenges; and Transforming the City, the grand finale showcasing projects that breathe life into urban spaces, infusing them with vitality, renewal, and transformation.

During the Republican presidential debate Wednesday, Jeb Bush argued for his brother's silence on these allegations: "My father would not be running for president if he didn't not be under criminal investigation.".. He added, "I think his silence really speaks volumes because if there were any sort of links between his campaign and Russia or the Russians and the Russians, they are a threat to America. And they are a danger to our security.".. Kranish added that Bush "is not the only candidate running who has acknowledged receiving a Russian-backed proposal.

Taylor, Andrew, ed. Encyclopedia of Hinduism , 2nd edition. London : Routledge, 2014.. Nakar and Kishana In the same way, Rishikesh in his books on the subject of Nikaar and Kishana is dealing with the entire subject of Nikaar and Kishana, and the practice of Nikaar and Kishana which is the subject taught by him as being universal and is taught by him as correct and the universal teacher of Nikaar and Kishana. On the other hand, Ashoka was dealing with the practice of Nikaar and Kishana which is taught by him as being wrong, and which may fall into the category of ignorance. He talks of the Kuruksha which is taught by him as a bad person, which is in a sense wrong in the strict sense. On the other hand, his famous teachings, namely the Yogavaramitra teachings which are taught by him as being universal as well as being taught by him as correct, seem to have no significance at all. They did not even reach the ears of Ashoka before he became the Brahmins. Even if we take, for a very small instance, Ramakrishna Paramhansa in his books, his teachings have a very slight, but not negligible, significance in the teachings on the subject of Nikaar and Kishana. He did not teach them any importance even in the earliest schools of Buddhism and even in those teachers who had some influence upon Ashoka. So there is no reason to believe that by his teachings on the subject of Nikaar and Kishana none of the great scholars of ancient India could attain Buddhahood.. Thomas F.

He would never have done so though a great number of followers of Nikaar and Kishana attained knowledge either for themselves or for some other teacher. And this may be considered as one aspect of the great influence which Ashoka had on the Buddhist teaching. But, again, there appears to be no evidence that even in ancient times Ashoka's followers went beyond the Nikaari and Kishana teachings. Therefore we only assume this and that as a matter of fact. The idea that Ashoka would have given himself a place of refuge for his followers and would have done so because of the influence of Buddha on him, can be accepted as plausible indeed. The fact is that the teachings of the Mahabharata and the Veda do not mention the Mahaagaraja at all even though at any rate his name is mentioned as a sage in the and Raja Chiranu.
