| Jan 23, 2017 at 5:51 | comment | added | Mishu 米殊 | @ChrisW OP = Original Poster, learnt, thank you. No, littlemonk has all the credits and rights to ask such question. An "outsider" is anyone who doesn't get "initiated"/ acquired the true knowledge, the post writer is she (I read the webpage) an "initiated"/ acquired? Thus everyone is writing something about anything. But this knowledge is not cooking recipe, if someone writing it on the public arena, not one's own dairy locked in one's own drawer, there should at least be a hint that the writer's words are "hearsay". However not everyone regards such sense of ethic. | |

| Jan 22, 2017 at 18:18 | comment | added | ChrisW♦ | @Bhumishu米殊 The OP is "littlemonk", the original poster. It sounded like maybe you were saying this question shouldn't have been asked; but I don't think there's an way for the general public (or "outsiders" as you call them) to know what is and isn't secret, is there? Or even to know that anything is secret. | |
| Jan 22, 2017 at 15:24 | comment | added | Mishu 米殊 | @ChrisW what is OP? i'm just 'exclamation-mark'ing the flood of the internet making any type of "know-ledge" easy, cheap and handy. | |
| Jan 22, 2017 at 1:09 | comment | added | ChrisW♦ | @Bhumishu米殊 Are you saying that the OP should have known that this topic is "obviously occult"? | |
| Jan 21, 2017 at 16:51 | comment | added | Mishu 米殊 | It's very dangerous to read a layman's writing who trying to use his own words and understanding to "tell" the reader an "occult" practice - for it is occult obviously the secret is concealed from the outsider, except for the teacher and his chosen student. | |

| Jan 20, 2017 at 19:19 | comment | added | ChrisW♦ | A related topic: Can somebody explain me this Kalachakra print? | |
| Jan 20, 2017 at 15:26 | comment | added | ChrisW♦ | I added the tibetan-buddhism tag: I assume you're asking for answers from within the perspective of Tibetan Buddhism (since you're asking for an explanation of what's depicted by Tibetan art). | |

| Jan 20, 2017 at 15:10 | comment | added | user10546 | but it would be nice if you could provide the explanation of the phrase?buddha himself didn't want to get entageld in samsar,let alone unite with the other sex.so isn't this contradictory | |
| Jan 20, 2017 at 15:08 | comment | added | user10546 | no..no..you have quite aptly answered the question.thank you!! | |
| Jan 20, 2017 at 15:02 | comment | added | ChrisW♦ | The page says, "The Buddha of Purification with consort" and says it depicts a manifestation of "unity of the fully developed masculine and feminine energy: the complete purity and highest state of enlightenment". I guess that doesn't answer your question though. So can you say what further question you have about that? Or do you want to ask for explanation of that description/phrase? Or are you asking for explanation of the various details depicted/symbolized in the art? | |
