Thangka Art & Computer Sciences Aspiration.

... i am a buddhist, esoteric and scientist / mostly computer scientist / fascinated by Art.

i wish to support or help Thangka Artists, to learn, to create Thangka Art.

Thangka Art is the Holy Buddhist Art.

... first Mahakala Thangka Art, then Enlightened Love Thangka Art, then other.


Not only using Adobe Photoshop, but also using programming languages, graphics libraries & other tools.

... i wish to buy Adobe Photoshop when i can afford, and choose sane offer - not only price matters here.

... i wish to create static graphics, as well as animations and demo applications - starting from
two-dimensional, then continuing with three-dimensional art.

... i have idea of encoding layers in software created by me, i wish to use it, as well as other ideas that i'll find.


... i also wish to create Software for creating Thangka Art as well, that does not require programming skills from it's users, eventually.

08.09.2018 update:

... i've bought on an internet auction, on allegro.pl, a 2-sided stylus / pl: rysik / for painting using smartphone. One side is more thick and comfortable when painting and filling with brush's flow, other side - hidden under ferrule - is more thin and precise.

... i've installed Adobe Photoshop Sketch painting software on my smartphone, as well.

... why i won't use tablet for now? there are more important expenses, and i do not wish to buy something of poor quality. i want a good quality android tablet with high resolution and comfortable size, with a fairly modern Android OS version, and this requires money that i don't have for now;
... so i prefer to earn first, then buy something of good quality when i can afford.

... i cannot afford to buy rubbish, i need something that will last for a while.

... for now, using an android smartphone - best of phones for this task that i already have is
Huawei P Smart - very good smartphone with good size, resolution and very good cameras - is adequate training & work tool for me; making photos is also Art, that can be used in other Arts, and Adobe Photoshop software is just perfect for transforming photos and creating Art that way.


     


... i plan to paint images using smartphone, stylus & painting software, then to import these as layers into Photoshop CS6 for absolute and relative positioning, for image integration, corrections, editing and for finishing touches.

... i've checked: Adobe Photoshop Sketch's .psd files can be imported easily to Adobe Photoshop CS6 via Adobe Creative Cloud.

... i've also checked: Adobe Photoshop's .psd files can be imported easily to Adobe Photoshop Sketch as well, either easily via Adobe Creative Cloud, or by copying file manually to a phone.

... i have troubles finding a good book, dvd, or online course for painting Thangka Art using these tools, however.

... i could use directions, and transmission for that.

... i also wish to create other arts - not only Thangka Arts - as is Enlightening, Practical and Pragmatic.

Enlightening & Esoteric Martial Arts Mandala & Mantras.

About & wishes.

This blog's author wishes to practice Martial Arts, to create Enlightening Martial Art style, focusing on Inner Martial Arts.

This blog's author is on the Holy Tantric Mantrayana Way, the Way of Mantras that he joins with Way of Insight & Way of Trust / Way of Identification / as a part of Vajrayana Buddhism Way.

This blog's author's Inner Martial Arts include Martial Art Wisdom / Philosophy /, Mantras & Energy Practices / Shaolin Qi Gong /.

This blog's author practices Buddhism & Esoterics as well.

This blog's author wishes to develop Powerfully Protecting Atemi Martial Arts Mandala Forms, that Protect by attacking vulnerable points in threat's Mind, Speech, Energy & Body. This includes Qi Gong, Inner Aikido & Reiki, and has uses in Energy Duels, both one-to-one, and in groups.

This blog's author thinks that Energy Duels have uses against harmful Sects, that use energy fields around beings & points in space. This blog's author tries to be Anti-Sectarian, in a service to
HH Buddha Karmapa 17th Trinley Thaye Dorje.

This blog's author wishes to develop Atemi / Atemi is Martial Arts-related word ... it means: 'attack on vulnerable points' / on Energy Fields, including attacking Thoughtshape Forms & Spiritual Auras formed by Sects, as well as attacking Powerfields around Sectarian traitors. This blog's author thinks that Inner Enemies & Traitors are far more dangerous than any of external enemies - so him being Anti-Sectarian is the most important Service for HH Buddha Karmapa 17th Trinley Thaye Dorje.

This blog's author read that 'Atemi is 90% of Aikido', amd that 'Aiki' is 'Energy Balance', and that 'Do' is 'The Way', therefore wishes to use Inner Aikido in Energy Combat, along with Shaolin Qi Gong & Reiki Energy Practices. This blog's author knows that 'Rei' means 'Bow, Nod of Respect & Lesson Acceptance', and 'Ki' means 'Energy'.

This blog's author wishes to develop Martial Arts Philosophy, Mantras & Energy Practices - up to 10th Dan, as well as more traditional external Practices - up to 2nd-3rd Dan.

This blog's author believes that 'Truth is what brings together instead of separating, but honesty is also important', therefore wishes to participate also in the Esoteric Powerfields, not only Buddhist Powerfields. This blog's author believes that esoteric circles can be powerful friends & allies, useful as Buddhism is minority in the World. This blog's author wishes to develop wisdom, methods, speech & understanding related with this task.

Beneficial Ways.

Introduction.

This blog's author knows that while it can be beneficial to help others even while unemployed,
Lama Ole Nydahl still enourages actively working as well as practicing Buddhism in our daily lives.

i wish to find proper employment, will start to look for work since January 2017.

i wish to find work in Software Security, as a 'Pentester' preferably. i wish to work for 3 years in that field mostly to gain professional experience in Software Security as a preparation for my future projects. i wish to share my income with Buddhism & not only.

i could use support of others, to prepare for that work, to find that work & to keep it as well.

Namaste.


Art-Dharma Lessons & Protecting our Ways.

One of my wishes i did in past was to protect Lama Ole Nydahl's Transmission as an Ethical Hacker & IT Security Expert.

There are many ways to accomplish this, one of them is to build a Secure Art-Application such as: 'Art & Dharma Teachings' Project of mine.




Why this route?

Because the Art speaks Clearly & Beautifully - lessons conveyed with Arts are easier to understand & absorb.

This project also has to be technologically secure, as well as able to serve lessons to many customers at the same time.

With a proper Buddha Dharma & Arts understanding, the Art-Dharma lessons can be analyzed & categorized as well - so proper lessons are given to proper people, taking into account factors as initiations acquired, current meditation practices, as well as other considerations as neccessary.

i understand that succesfully completing this project requires following:
- understanding Dharma well enough - preferably with finding proper advisors that are well-versed in Buddha Dharma,
- understanding Art well enough, understanding the way Art speaks, understanding messages it conveys - preferably with assistance of Buddhist Art-Advisors,
- understanding Technology well enough - including software construction, web-cloud projects related concerns, as well as software security issues, 3d graphics & modelling, audio-video films streaming, virtual reality (i think that in-browser virtual reality will happen in this life), probably much more,
- understanding Processes of Learning & Teaching, including the nature of Cognition - in relation with Buddhism, Psychology, Arts, NLP, Mindfulness, Philosophy & perhaps other Sciences,
- proper initial investments - i am willing to invest my own money for this a project, possibly with mortgage bank credit & other financial solutions,
- patience & dedication.


Knowledge needed to make software that is needed beside computer sciences is called in programmer's jargon a 'domain knowledge'; Usually in an order to write an application properly, customer with domain knowledge is approached by an analyst - then talks ensue. Analyst's reports are sent to a software designer, then software's design & analyst's documentation papers are passed to programmers/developers who fill in whole code details. Then application is tested and after a proper procedures passed to the customer for reports, modification & correction orders if needed. Often software changes with time, as reality changes and customer adjusts his or her needs as well. We programmers say that programming is iterative (repeating in circles) process.

When a programmer knows domain knowledge, however - whole process is simplified, faster, better. Customer needs need to be addressed as well however, so talks are still neccessary.

This blog's author aims to understand as much of the needed Art & Dharma Teachings' domain knowledge, as well. Who is customer in my case? i think it's Artists, Buddhist Teachers & Sangha - even if it's me who will be paying them for their advices & time, at first at least.


Wishes.

i wish for all beings to find best work for their ways, work they love, work well worth their efforts, work that won't waste their precious time.

i wish for all beings to develop & realize their Mind's potential fully.

i wish to encourage all beings to reach Liberation & Enlightenment, without hurrying, demanding or pressuring them to do so.
