salman rushdie had premonition, ignored it, stabbed 15 times almost died

13 min. interview on 60 minutes show:

You may remember Salmon, who had a fatwa by Ayatollah issued (asking muslims to kill salman) for writing a book considered offensive to Muslims.

Interesting juxtaposition with another story that happened today.
A woman had two dreams, same morning, very vivid warning her not to go to work or else she'd be seriously injured in a car crash.

She heeded the warning, lived.

Salmon also had a dream before his attempted murder, told his wife he didn't want to go to the event (where he would be attacked and stabbed 15 times).
Then he thought, "it's just a dream, why should I believe it?"

New Jersey toll collector with ‘premonition’ called out of work before garbage truck crashed into booth

Talk about a sixth sense!



A New Jersey toll booth attendant escaped potential injury or worse after she called out of work because of a premonition — the same day a garbage truck crashed into the toll plaza.



Jessica Daley, who works along the Garden State Parkway, told NBC New York she was jolted awake Friday morning with a “bad gut feeling … like something terrible was going to happen.”



A second warning came at 4 a.m., when she felt she was “going to get in a car accident.”

“It was so strong, that I actually called out and I never call out of work,” Daley told the broadcaster.




Four hours later, a garbage truck slammed into a collector’s booth at the Barnegat Toll Plaza — the booth Daley is usually in.



An explosion of debris hit a nearby Chevy pickup truck and the toll booth.

 A toll collector and the driver of the vehicle suffered serious injuries.



“My immediate response, honestly, I dropped to my knees and just started crying.

 I was praying for everybody involved and thanking God that I had that feeling to call out,” she said when she’d been told of the accident soon after.



State police are still investigating the crash, and a spokesperson for the New Jersey Turnpike Authority said the injured toll collector has left the hospital.

Daley and her family were left with mixed emotions.



“I think her gut instinct was an angel or a premonition from a guardian angel telling her not to go in to protect her,” said her mother, Jennifer.



“It’s hard to feel so happy that my daughter wasn’t there, and at the same time, feel heartbreak for the ones that were involved.”


Police are still investigating the crash that left one toll collector in the hospital.


Daley returned to work the next day and added that the warnings reinforced her faith.



“As of recently, I started getting a lot closer to God in the last like three months.

 I believe 100 percent that was God looking out for me,” she said.

Advice to younger meditators on jhāna, sex, porn, masturbation

Someone asked: Is porn considered harmful sexual.activity? I don't have a sex life because I don't have a partner and I don't wish to engage in casual sex so I use porn to quench the biological urge to orgasm. I can't see that's it's harmful because nobody is being forced into it. The actors are all paid well and claim to enjoy it etc. The only harm I can see is that it's so accessible these days on smart devices and so children may access it but I believe that this is the parents responsibility to not allow unsupervised use of devices etc. Views? Frankk response: In another thread, you asked about pleasant sensations and jhāna.  I'm guessing you're young, so here's some important advice you won't get from suttas   if you're serious about jhāna.  (since monastics are already celibate by rule)   If you want to attain stable and higher jhānas,   celibacy and noble silence to the best of your ability are the feedstock and prerequiste to tha

SN 48.40 Ven. Thanissaro comments on Ven. Sunyo's analysis

This was Ven. Sunyo's analysis of SN 48.40: https://notesonthedhamma.blogspot.com/2024/05/exciting-news-honest-ebt-scholars-like.html And here is Ven. Thanissaro's response to that analysis: I think there’s a better way to tackle the issue of SN 48:40 than by appealing to the oldest layers of commentarial literature. That way is to point out that SN 48:40, as we have it, doesn’t pass the test in DN 16 for determining what’s genuine Dhamma and what’s not. There the standard is, not the authority of the person who’s claiming to report the Buddha’s teachings, but whether the teachings he’s reporting are actually in accordance with the principles of the Dhamma that you know. So the simple fact that those who have passed the Buddha’s teachings down to us say that a particular passage is what the Buddha actually taught is not sufficient grounds for accepting it. In the case of the jhānas—the point at issue here— we have to take as our guide the standard formula for the jhānas, a

To give more context, this is a public event,  * everyone knows cameras are rolling  *  it's a room full of children * the boy's mom is standing off camera a few feet away watching all of this * the boy initiated contact, he had already had a hug with Dalai Lama earlier and then asked Dalai Lama for another hug which triggered this segment  17 min. video showing what happened before that 1 min. clip and after, with some explanation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bT0qey5Ts78 16min talk from Ajahn Acalo with his thoughts on Dalai Lama kissing boy, relevance to Bhikkhu monastic code, sexual predators in religion in general, and how celibate monastics deal with sexual energy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uK2m0TcUib0 The child's comments about the incident in a filmed interview later https://www.marca.com/en/lifestyle/world-news/2023/04/18/643eba5d46163ffc078b457c.html The child: It's a great experience It was amazing to meet His Holiness and I think it's a great ex
