Buddhist Religion

Le Dhammapada constitue le recueil des paroles de Siddhartha Gautama, dit le Bouddha. Ces paroles furent dites il y a prés de 2500 ans et furent durant sa vie canonisé en verset puis récité à l'oral par les disciples Bhikkous dans le but de réaliser l'unité de la communauté Sangha.

The sacred arts play an essential, intrinsic role in Tibetan Buddhist practice. Here, one of the great practitioners and master artists of our time presents a guide to the Tibetan Buddhist path, from preliminary practices through enlightenment, from the artist's perspective.

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.

The Theragatha is one of the most striking texts in the Pali Canon. It is a collection of 264 poems or verses - some short, some long - by monks who, traditionally, lived at the time of the Buddha, and which expressed their experience of insight, the culmination of their spiritual path. In fact, it is generally recognised now that this collection was added to over the years, so that some of the verses date from a later time.

Time to Stand Up retells the story of the historical Buddha, one of the greatest sacred activists of all time, as a practical human being whose teachings of freedom from suffering are more relevant than ever in this time of global peril.

직지인심(直指人心), 사람의 마음을 곧바로 가리킨다는 뜻이다. 즉 눈을 밖으로 돌리지 말고 자기 마음을 곧바로 잡을 것, 제대로 바라보고 파악하라는 불교의 가르침이다. 대부분의 현대인은 작건 크건 마음의 병 하나쯤 갖고 있다. 크게 3가지, '분노·자존감·우울감'에서 비롯한다. 불교의 목적은 인간의 고통을 없애는 데 있다.
