Talk:Kena Upanishad

message: "The epilogue in Kena Upanishad is contained in the last six paragraphs of the text. It asserts the timelessness and awareness of Brahman to be similar to moments of wondrous "Ah!!" in life, such as the focused exclamation one makes upon witnessing lightning flash in the sky, or the focussed 'Ah!!' recollection of a knowledge in one's mind of a memory from past.[24] The goal of spiritual knowledge, of self awareness, is wonderful, characterized by an 'intense longing' for it in all creatures, states Kena Upanishad.[24] The knowledge of Atman-Brahman is Tadvanam (transcendental happiness, blissfulness).[31]"
The following is from an ancient Indian mystical treatise concerning 112 reflections/methods on achieving enlightenment.  Pal Reps appended them to his popular book Zen Flesh, Zen Bones, speculating the work antedates Zen and might serve as a basis for it.  As it has always struck me how similar are Zen Buddhism and the Hindu metaphysical school of Advaita Vedanta on a substantive basis, might it have also inspired the sages of the Upanishads, including this one in particular?  I've quoted below two of the methods that struck me as very similar to my above quotation from the article that seem to me as most indicative of this possibility. However, if one reads all 112 methods, it strikes me how they seem so either predictive or reflective of the substantive tenor of the Upanishads in general, a question of which came first as it is generally so difficult to accurately date ancient Sanskrit religious and philosophical works as the article mentions. 
The common theme between “Centering” and the Upanishads—at least as interpreted by Shankara (an interpretation that I find most obvious and convincing)—of idealism, with the material, phenomenal world being an illusory manifestation of universal consciousness (“Brahman”) which is  the fundamental stratum of existence that cannot be further sublated and exists timelessly and eternally like (as an analogy) a Rubik’s cube constantly changing it faces while all the while retaining its basic structural integrity as one, seems striking to me.  In “Centering,” a common theme seems to be trying to grasp (enlightenment) the fundamental nature of primal realty at its very transient moments of changing manifestations. (“Just then!”)  
Can a mention of  “Centering,” pointing out the work’s seeming substantive parallels with this and other Upanishads, be incorporated either here or in another article regarding the Upanishads in general?  
Thanks much for anyone’s consideration:

"94 Let attention be at a place where you are seeing some past happening, and even your form, having lost its present characteristics, is transformed."

This article was born when I cleaned up the Iron (disambiguation) page and tried to turn the deletion of many entries into a joke in the talk page (see Talk:Iron (disambiguation)), to make my deletion less offensive.

Naturally suspecting that here there soon to come a young smartass who knows that wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information only too well and nominates my fruits of hard toil for deletion right away, I started digging/fishing/googling/mining the wwweb to create appearances of a solidish article. To my (now real) surprize I quickly found out that the iron metaphor is indeed a well-researched and well-referenced topic!

message: New Aeon English Qabala -> "Cipher 6" or, if that seems too ambiguous, "ALW Cipher"
Every part of the current title seems POV or false. "New Aeon" endorses a disputed interpretation of the Book of the Law (more than one, in fact, and people who care might check what Cipher 6 says about this part of the name). You can use it for any Latin alphabet language, not just English. (It has no values for accents and the like, but then Hebrew Gematria has no vowels.) And as the article notes, "Qabala" includes more than a method of numeration (technically called gematria or a cipher). Dan (talk) 03:25, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
