I love the statement that the "man of Zen walks in Zen and sits in Zen" for the simple reason that meditation cannot be just a part of your life. You cannot make a fragment of your life meditative.

Thich Nhat Hanh vermittelt anhand der großen buddhistischen Weisheitstexte, wie wir die Kunst erlernen können, wirklich zu lieben. Ein zentraler Stellenwert kommt dabei der Liebe zu, die wir für uns selbst entwickeln, denn nur, wer sich selbst annehmen kann, besitzt die Fähigkeit, auch für andere da zu sein.

Die weltweit bekannte Meditationslehrerin Tara Brach vereint in diesem Ratgeber zur Persönlichkeitsentwicklung Weisheitsgeschichten aus dem Buddhismus, selbst Erlebtes und alltagstaugliche Meditationen.

Auch wenn Ärger, Wut oder Angst dieses pure Sein manchmal verbergen, können wir uns jederzeit wieder mit ihm verbinden. Das Vertrauen in diese "Gutheit" ist das eigentliche "Selbst-Vertrauen".

The Kashmir area was a crucial center of Hinduism and later Buddhism in the first centuries, while Kashmir Shaivism developed later, in the ninth century. This is why so many people attribute significant spiritual meaning to the area. It is no wonder, therefore, that some travelers go to this specific area for spiritual purposes. In this book, we will explore the history of Kashmir, its significance, and the current circumstances.

A Zen parent is not a label or prescriptive way to parent, but a willingness to stay present with what's happening and do the right thing. It's a commitment to an imperfect practice of continual self-awareness so we can show up for our children in an authentic and mindful way. The one thing that can be counted on throughout parenting is change - just when we understand our child's experience or buy the right size clothes, they change and grow. Just when we get comfortable with typical life challenges, the world experiences a global pandemic.

In The Shamanic Bones of Zen, celebrated author and Buddhist teacher Zenju Earthlyn Manuel undertakes a rich exploration of the connections between contemporary Zen practice and shamanic, or indigenous, spirituality. Drawing on her personal journey with the Black church, with African, Caribbean, and Native American ceremonial practices, and with Nichiren and Zen Buddhism, she builds a compelling case for cultivating the shamanic, or magical, elements in Buddhism - many of which have been marginalized by colonialist and modernist forces in the religion.

Buddhism asserts that we each have the potential to free ourselves from the prison of our problems. As practiced for more than 2,600 years, the process involves working with, rather than against, our depression, anxiety, and compulsions. We do this by recognizing the habitual ways our minds perceive and react - the way they mislead. The lively exercises and inspiring real-world examples Cayton provides can help you transform intractable problems and neutralize suffering by cultivating a radically liberating self-understanding.

Even if you have no knowledge of Buddhism or spirituality, this book is a complete guide to learning the core concepts and implementing them day-to-day. We can begin to implement the lessons of this book in just a few days! If you’re ready to lead a more peaceful life, practice mindfulness and meditation, and live with intention then scroll up and add this to your cart!

In Zen, Zest, Zip, Zap and Zing, Osho responds to questions on love, freedom, morality, women’s role in society, nostalgia, a child’s right to privacy, the purpose of life, and more. Again and again he nudges the listener back to the essential: Zen – awareness, being here and now. While responding to the concerns of the questioners, Osho also illustrates how nonessential their preoccupations are.

There are people who transcend humanity, and Buddha is one of them. Despite one’s religious affiliation, one cannot deny that Buddha is one of the most prominent spiritual leaders of humanity. But there is a problem: True happiness in the sense that Buddha achieved is difficult. In the many years that I practiced meditation, I realized that it makes perfect sense to gather the most prolific and valuable quotes from Buddha. These quotes are inspirational.

Dena was a busy midwife trapped on the hamster wheel of working motherhood. Adam was an eccentric Buddhist yogi passing as a hardworking dad. Bella was 14 and wanted to be normal. Sophia was up for anything that involved skipping school. Together, they shouldered backpacks, walked away from their California life of all-night births, carpool schedules, and Cal Skate, and crisscrossed India and Nepal for eight months - a journey that led them to His Holiness the Dalai Lama, the tree where the Buddha sat, and the arms of Amma the Divine Mother.

La atención plena se sitúa en el corazón de la meditación budista, pero su esencia es universal y tiene un profundo beneficio práctico para todo el mundo. Con frecuencia, nuestra mente no es consciente de las múltiples posibilidades que encierra el momento presente y de su belleza única, ya que nuestra naturaleza alberga una tendencia al automatismo que nos aleja del contacto con el único tiempo que tenemos para vivir, crecer, sentir, amar, aprender y darle forma a las cosas.

In these delightful and playful talks, Osho introduces the mystery, the wonder and the emptiness that is Zen, not comparable to anything else and a completely different approach to life. The chapters alternate between elaborating original excerpts by the 14th Zen master, Ikkyu, taking us into the world of Zen – and responding to personal questions, which brings the world of Zen into our lives, connects with our issues and questions.

Using the Upanishadic vision, Osho contrasts the teachings of Buddha, J. Krishnamurti, and the Vedas, and explains how these different teachings have relevance to the way we live today.

For much of his career, Dr. Mark Epstein kept his beliefs as a Buddhist separate from his work as a psychiatrist. But as he became more forthcoming with his patients about his personal spiritual leanings, he was surprised to find how many of them were eager to learn more. The divisions between the psychological, emotional, and the spiritual, he soon realized, were not as distinct as one might think.
