Jain cosmology

According to Jainism, this loka or universe is an uncreated entity, existing since infinity having no beginning or an end.

1) Jain texts describe the shape of the universe as similar to a man standing with legs apart and arm resting on his waist. Thus Universe according to Jainism is narrow at top and broad at middle and once again becomes broad at the bottom.
2) Mahāpurāna of Ācārya Jinasena is famous for this quote –

“Some foolish men declare that the creator made the world. The doctrine that the world was created is ill advised and should be rejected.
If God created the world, where was he before the creation?
If you say he was transcendent then and needed no support, where is he now?
How could God have made this world without any raw material?
If you say that he made this first, and then the world, you are faced with an endless regression.”

Los Angeles, and it's filled with wonderful apartments, so where are they?

It took me six months to find the one I wanted, and it was magnificent. During the time I was looking, the building was being constructed, and when it was finished, I found it waiting for me. If you look for something, but you are not finding it, there is probably a reason

Is Your House Making You Sick?

Got a Headache? Got the sniffles? Is life getting you down?

You might have the flu, or... you could be suffering from the effects of air pollution inside your home or office.
Protect yourself from pollution and chemicals inside your house !

Our buildings are filled with synthetic materials, and some of them can literally make you sick. Plywood, particleboards, and other manufactured woods emit formaldehyde. The stone used in concrete can release radon. Fiberglass insulation may be capable of causing lung cancer in the same way that asbestos does. Even your carpeting can make you feel lousy.

"Walking into a modern building can sometimes be compared to placing your head inside a plastic bag that is filled with toxic fumes," says John Bower, author of several books on healthy home construction. Just the sound of this chemical cocktail is enough to make your head spin: Acetonitrile, methyl methacrylate, styrene, aliphatic hydrocarbons, ketones, alkenes, esters...
