Zen Buddhism

Mit diesem #1 Bestseller Glück und Zufriedenheit finden. In diesem Buch stellt die Autorin Shiva Singh verschiedene inspirierende Geschichten aus dem Buddhismus vor. Die Geschichten erlauben dem Leser eine neue Sicht auf Glück und Zufriedenheit einzunehmen, die zum Nachdenken und Überdenken einladen. Meistens liegt die Antwort des Glücks in einem selbst und nicht in der Umgebung. Dafür muss der Mensch allerdings alles vergessen und loslassen, was er bisher gelernt und gehört hat. Glück ist letztlich nämlich einfach nur eine Frage der Perspektive.

Leading Buddhist scholar Sam van Schaik explores the history and essence of Zen, based on a new translation of one of the earliest surviving collections of teachings by Zen masters. These teachings, titled The Masters and Students of the Lanka, were discovered in a sealed cave on the old Silk Road, in modern Gansu, China, in the early twentieth century. All more than a thousand years old, the manuscripts have sometimes been called the Buddhist Dead Sea Scrolls, and their translation has opened a new window onto the history of Buddhism.

Mainstream perceptions about what it means to be Buddhist in America often whitewash and invisibilize the diverse, inclusive, and intersectional communities that lie at the heart of American Buddhism. Be the Refuge is both critique and celebration, calling out the erasure of Asian-American Buddhists while uplifting the complexity and nuance of their authentic stories and vital, thriving communities. Drawn from in-depth interviews with a pan-ethnic, pan-Buddhist group, Be the Refuge is the first book to center young Asian-American Buddhists' own voices.

Alpha waves are the brain wave frequencies (8-14 Hz) associated with relaxation. Combine the two and you may be able to:

For Roshi Pat Enkyo O'Hara, intimacy is what Zen practice is all about: the realization of the essential lack of distinction between self and other that inevitably leads to wisdom and compassionate action. She approaches the practice of intimacy beginning at its most basic level - the intimacy with ourselves that is the essential first step. She then shows how to bring intimacy into our relationships with others, starting with those dearest to us and moving on to those who don't seem dear at all.

Great Brahmas. Two of this realm’s more famous inhabitants are the Great Brahma, a deity whose delusion leads him to regard himself as the all-powerful, all-seeing supposedly creator of the universe (see Digha Nikaya 11), and Brahma Sahampati, who begs the Buddha to teach Dhamma to the world.

Little is known of the life of Zen master Huang-Po (Obaku in Japanese). He was born in Fuzhou, China, and died about 850 AD. His main teacher was Pai Chang (Hyakujo) (720 - 814). The main source for Huang-Po's teaching is the Treatise of the Essentials of the Transmission of the Mind, compiled by his student, Pei Xiu. Huang-Po's teaching is focused on the concept of Mind, the essence of intrinsic Buddahood. According to the master, the search for enlightenment was a useless distraction, as seeking for something inevitably separates the seeker from what is being sought.

Zen and Tao, A Little Book on Buddhist Though and Meditation is really not a short audiobook. It is a collection of Buddhist quotes, thoughts, and meditations from the school of Zen and the Tao.

For over 2,500 years, the teachings of Buddhism have guided spiritual seekers, philosophers, and everyday people who want more from life. You’re probably already familiar with some Buddhist concepts, such as “meditation” and “karma”. But, what about “Buddhahood” and “the 10 worlds?” Ideas like these are unfamiliar to the Western mind-set, making the language of Buddhism difficult for outsiders to understand.

"Wir müssen aus dem tiefsten Nichtdenken heraus denken (...) das Optimum, das Bersten, der Orgasmus des Bewusstseins, das Jenseits-des-Denkens, das absolute, kosmische, universale, globale Denken (...) tritt unbewusst, natürlich und automatisch ein." (Taisen Deshimaru, Zen-Meister). Der Geist wird in einem Moment ganz plötzlich unendlich weit und löst sich im großen Ganzen auf: Was könnte die Erfahrung der Erleuchtung besser beschreiben, als das Bild einer Explosion in die Unendlichkeit.
