Does Israel belong to asia or europe?
Israel is part of the continent of ASIA, specifically in the region called "the Middle East." "Southwest Asia" is also being slowly adopted as a more politically-correct alternative for the term "Middle East." Israel is very close both to North Africa and south-eastern Europe, but is not part of Africa or Europe. This is because the internationally accepted demarcation of the border between Asia and Africa is the Suez Canal; and the demarcation between Asia and Europe runs through the Urals and the Dardanelles, making Israel an Asian country.
It is important to note that for UN Security Council rotations, Israel is considered part of the "Western Europe and Others Group" as the Arab Nations blocked its entry into the Middle East Group. It also shares a lot of legal and cultural traditions with Europe.
It is also worth noting that like several other Middle Eastern and Caucasus countries, Israel is allowed to participate in the (primarily European) Eurovision song contest. Additionally, Israel plays in the European Football Cup.
What is the tibetan book of dead?
The Bardo Thodrol (popularly known in English as The Tibetan Book of the Dead) presents Tibetan Buddhist teachings related to death and the afterlife. The text is believed to have originated from Padmasambhava, the Indian spiritual master who brought Buddhism to Tibet in the 9th century. According to the tradition of mind terma (treasure text) literature, he concealed the teaching for the benefit of future generations, and it was rediscovered in the 14th century. Today it is one of the most famous works of world religious literature. Three translations that have been published in English are by W. Y. Evans-Wentz, Francesca Fremantle & Chogyam Trungpa, and Robert Thurman.
A more accurate translation of the title is "Liberation through Hearing in the Bardo." The word bardo refers primarily to the in-between state between death and rebirth (though there are other types of bardo as well). It is taught that in this afterdeath state, the advanced meditator has an enhanced opportunity to achieve enlightenment, attaining liberation from the cycle of births and deaths. The book consists of explanations about the process of dying and instructions to enable the meditator to recognize and identify with the true nature of mind, which is experienced as a brilliant "clear light."
There is a custom of reading this book of instructions aloud to the dying or the dead. However, in the view of Fremantle and Trungpa, the text also offers guidance to the living, since "whatever happens to us after death is simply a continuation of what is happening to us now in this life" (Fremantle, Luminous Emptiness: Understanding the Tibetan Book of the Dead, p. 7).

a very long mountain range in Asia Kunlun Nei Gung is an ancient, secret method of spiritual awakening. Kunlun is a reset process that is a part of your body already. When you do the method you activate that process. Whatever your body determines you need to do to realign your natural energy flow, will happen. The position you take tunes/harmonizes your body with the one law or sympathetic vibration. You know you have attained it when you feel joyful, blissful and loving. The love aspect of the human being is the expression of the one law. This treasure of re-enlightenment is composed of three basic levels of breathing. * The first level opens the body's nervous system, which is comprised of 72,000 nerves or nadis. The result of this opening is the awakening of the golden dragon, or magnetic body. * The second levelinvolves breath retention practice that generates and circulates the body's magnetic field, removes impurities and awakens the brain's dormant potentials * The third level composes of the "waterfall" meditation that brings the practitioner back to the physical level of being. This part is for calming and relaxing the body, mind and spirit of a person. The end result of Kunlun Spontaneous Nei Gung system is to awaken the practitioner's magnetic potentials, the "bliss-body", the expression of the dormant potential of the mind, and to understand the one law that governs all matter, energy, and form. This practice is not written in any form. It is an oral tradition and must be transferred from teacher to student by a "mind-to-mind" form of initiation. There are hidden keys given to the practitioner after each level of practice is mastered.

When were the terms orient far eastand southeast Asia used and why?
The terms have been used interchangeably since man has been trading with the Orient (East). Some of the terms have been, thru-out history: Far East, Far Orient, the Orient, the East, etc. The Occident (West) for unknown reasons, has seldom been used when describing the "West." Possibly it was because the one sylable word "West" was easier for seamen to pronounce (and write) than the three sylabled word "Occident." A good majority of merchant seamen (minus the captain and his officers) couldn't read or write...for men like those, "West" beats "Occident" any day.
As late as the 1800's they were still seeking a passage to Asia. Your question needs a little work to be able to answer.
