I've just finished the content for week two of REL22: Buddhist Meditation Traditions and it's actually been quite fascinating.  I do have to reiterate, however, that I'm a little disappointed that Peter Friendlander is no longer taking the course.  Peter's taken a position at NUS Singapore so Professor Greg Bailey is taking the course this semester.  I've not had any contact with Greg yet so I can't offer any comments upon how that aspect of the course will develop but it still remains that Peter is a great teacher and will be sorely missed.

What a day!  Tired is the only word I have for it right now.  Two hours on trains and buses to Uni and two hours on trains and buses back.  I'm spending more time in transit than in class.  Anyhow, classes this week were great.

The lecture was very engaging, and being on Aristotle, I really enjoyed it (see Lecture notes below).  It's really nice to be in a 'real' class, one where the students are in my physical presence rather than in a projected reality mediated via my personal mimetic device: the computer. 

The Following is a revised version of my Tutorial Paper for PHIL2400: Ethics and the Passions.  I'll post the final version in the Uni Papers section of this site on Thursday.

The following is a DRAFT of my tutorial paper question and answer for PHIL240: Ethics and the Passions.

This week's lecture, while basically being an introduction, provided some interesting insight into where the course will be heading.

The following is the course outline for PHIL2400: Ethics and the Passions broken down week by week.  I'm really looking forward to this course
