Vipassana Meditation
[ send me this essay ]
An 8 page paper exploring the method and history of Vipassana meditation, and then comparing it to other forms of Buddhism-linked meditation techniques. Sensation-based Vipassana therefore leads the meditator to the place where sensations – such as negativity – can be dealt with right away, having been recognized for what they are. Thus the Vipassana practitioner "sees things as they are," rather than as they appear. Seeing things for what they are enables the individual to make an active choice of whether to accept or reject the thoughts and sensations that enter his mind, thereby giving the Vipassana meditator control over his own mind.

Wadud/Quran & Woman
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page book review that discusses the principal thesis of Amina Wadad's Quran and Woman, which takes a truly unique approach to what Islamic scriptures actually say about the sexes and their roles. Practically from its inception as a religion, the Quran has been interpreted by men. Male scholars, in regards to the role of women, have tended to focus on a few texts, studied in isolation from the whole of the Quran. Wadud offers an exegesis of the Quran that is female inclusive and considers the Islamic scriptures as a whole. In so doing, Wadud breaks down specific texts and key words that have been used to limit women's public and private roles, showing that the original meaning and context of the Quran stand in direct opposition to such interpretations. Wadud's reading of the Quran explicitly confirms that Islamic scriptures indicate that women and men are equal. No other sources cited.
