Talk:Vitarka-vicāra

John Lilly
Coren Search Bot is in error, as the equivalent text from the noted site http://www.vitarka.org/ is lifted whole from Center of the Cyclone, a book by John Lilly. I'm using the same text, but mine is in quotes, cited and referenced. Theirs is not. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Playanaut (talk • contribs) 10 September 2008 (UTC)

Clean-up
I've cleaned-up this article (Vitarka) from the scrapbook-collection of quotes, sloppy references, and sloppy Wiki-tags, which concealed the quite straight-forward meaning of this term: 'theinitial application of attention to an object in the practice of meditation'.

 * It contained usefull information, but altogether was another string of quotes, 'original exergesis', and missed opportunities to access the relevant scholarly literature (Fox, Bucknell). Joshua Jonathan  - Let's talk!  05:53, 10 November 2018 (UTC)

Move and merge
I'v moved this page from Vitarka to Vitarka-vicara, since they appear as a couple in the description of the first dhyana; I've moved the Buddhism-related info from Vicara into this article. Joshua Jonathan - Let's talk!  05:52, 10 November 2018 (UTC)
