Sa.Ia.rs and Lakes. Brines having high lithium concentration are found in salars of northern Chile, southwestern Bohvia, and northwestern Argentina. Brines of lower lithium concentration are found in salars in the western United States and the Tibetan Plateau. Brines pumped from beneath the surface of the Salar de Atacama (Chile) and Silver Peak (Clayton Valley, Nevada) are used for commercial production of lithium uti1i2ing solar evaporation (see Chemicals frombrines). The concentration of selected ions in brines from salars and lakes of potential commercial interest worldwide are shown in Table 1. [Pg.221]

A group of air travelers who crash in the Tibetan mountains are rescued and taken to Shangri-La, a city beyond the storm where the world outside, braced for war in 1937, is a fiction and the peace within is a dream come suspiciously true. [Pg.171]

Thick sedimentary pile from middle Miocene to late Pliocene is exposed in the Oga Peninsula, northern Honshu, Japan (Fig. 1.153). Age of the sedimentary rocks has been determined by microfossil data. Thus, the sedimentary rocks in the Oga Peninsula where type localities of Miocene sedimentary rocks in northern Japan are well exposed have been studied to elucidate the paleoenvironmental change of the Japan Sea (Watanabe et al., 1994a,b). Kimura (1998) obtained geochemical features of these rocks (isotopic and chemical compositions) and found that regional tectonics (uplift of Himalayan and Tibetan region) affect paleo-oceanic environment (oxidation-reduction condition, biogenic productivity). However, in their studies, no detailed discussions on the causes for the intensity and periodicity of hydrothermal activity, and temporal relationship between hydrothermal activity, volcanism and tectonics in the Japan Sea area were discussed. They considered only the time range from ca. 14 Ma to ca. 5 Ma. [Pg.213]

China Plain contain 0.1-4.5 mg/kg, and average total Mo contents are in the range of 0.48-2.4 mg/kg. In soils of the North West region, total Mo is 0.4-3.1 mg/kg with an average of 0.985 mg/kg. Soils in Tibetan areas contain 0.1-5.5 mg/kg and have average total Mo between 0.9-1.1 mg/kg. Calcareous paddy soils vary in total Mo concentrations from 0.26-1.21 mg/kg with an average of 0.57 mg/kg. [Pg.60]

Across her work from Isis Unveiled through The Secret Doctrine, Blavatsky posited a scheme of spiritual evolution not only of mankind but also of the inanimate world and the animal and vegetable kingdoms, all of which are pervaded by a life force. She chose a Tibetan word, Fohat, to name this life... [Pg.84]

As Blavatksy defined it in her Theosophical Glossary, Fohat represents the active (male) potency of the Sakti (female reproductive power) in nature. The essence of cosmic electricity. An occult Tibetan term for Daiviprakriti, primordial light and in the universe of manifestation the ever-present electrical energy and ceaseless destructive and formative power. Esoterically, it is the same, Fohat being the universal propelling Vital Force, at once the propeller and the resultant (1892, 121). [Pg.221]

Alchemical adepts and Tibetan yogis build up their spiritual creation, piece by piece, to realize their vision. This is not a matter of emotional ecstasy or unrestrained imagination, but a consciously directed creative process of realization in which nothing is left to chance, and in which there is no room for vague emotions or confused thinking. [Pg.10]

The second objective is to bring the vital energy (prana) into the Shushumna channel. This usually only happens in sleep or as death approaches, which is why trance work plays a part in some esoteric practices and why the ancient manuals acquired such names as the Egyptian Book of the Dead and the Tibetan Book of the Dead. Only by esoteric practice can the vital energy be made to enter the Shushumna outside of sleep or death. When this happens, Kundalini is activated and rises. As it ascends, dualistic states of mind are annulled and realization is achieved. [Pg.69]

A yogi or yogini of the Tibetan tradition visualizes his or her subtle body as a chorten. This visualization is actually a co-creation, since the universe is ultimately a mental creation. Rising from storey to storey (each storey being a more refined level), practioners build within each a mandala of tantric deities—an energy web of the dynamics of enlightenment—to activate the chakras and penetrate the veil of appearances to perceive Reality. [Pg.83]

Because the Stone is also the opened third eye, we are taught If therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light (Matthew 6 22). Tibetan sacred art depicts tantric deities as having an open third eye upon the forehead. Again, The Eye of YHVH is upon them who hold Him in awe. And, in Isaiah 53 8, Thy watchman shall lift up the voice with the voice together shall they sing, for they shall see... [Pg.96]
