Download or read book El budismo zen written by Dominique Dussaussoy and published by Siglo XXI. This book was released on 2005-02-01 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Qué es el budismo zen? El zen no propone ni dios ni revelación, ni dogma, ni promete ningún paraíso. Pone el acento en la dimensión existencial invitando a cada un o a desdramatizar sus sufrimientos y a liberarse de ellos. Su éxito no puede explicarse por una seducción fácil, pues su práctica es rigurosa y sus maestros tienen reputación de severos. El zen es una práctica abierta a todos, en la que la experiencia del despertar está al alcance de todos sin distinción de ninguna clase. Esta vía se transmite en el marco de una relación particular, de maestro a discípulo, de espíritu a espíritu, de corazón a corazón.
Download or read book Zen Therapy written by David Brazier and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2012-10-25 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buddhism, from Abhidharma to Zen, offers a practical path to harmony of head and heart. For over 2,000 years Buddhists have been developing sophisticated psychologies to guide the work of achieving freedom from mental suffering. Now East and West are beginning to learn from each other. In a readable and practical manner, this book challenges basic assumptions of Western psychology, demystifies Buddhist psychology and presents Zen as a therapy. Giving examples of its effectiveness in psychotherapeutic practice, the author shows how Zen derives from the Buddhist theory of the mind and throws new light upon the Buddhist theory of relations and conditions. This seminal wok is a resource full of intriguing and controversial ideas.

Download or read book How to Cook Your Life written by Dogen and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2005-11-08 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This modern-day commentary on Dogen’s Instructions for a Zen Cook reveals how everyday activities—like cooking—can be incorporated into our spiritual practice In the thirteenth century, Zen master Dogen—perhaps the most significant of all Japanese philosophers, and the founder of the Japanese Soto Zen sect—wrote a practical manual of Instructions for the Zen Cook. In drawing parallels between preparing meals for the Zen monastery and spiritual training, he reveals far more than simply the rules and manners of the Zen kitchen; he teaches us how to "cook," or refine our lives. In this volume Kosho Uchiyama Roshi undertakes the task of elucidating Dogen's text for the benefit of modern-day readers of Zen. Taken together, his translation and commentary truly constitute a "cookbook for life," one that shows us how to live with an unbiased mind in the midst of our workaday world.

Download or read book Midlife written by Kieran Setiya and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2017-09-22 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philosophical wisdom and practical advice for overcoming the problems of middle age How can you reconcile yourself with the lives you will never lead, with possibilities foreclosed, and with nostalgia for lost youth? How can you accept the failings of the past, the sense of futility in the tasks that consume the present, and the prospect of death that blights the future? In this self-help book with a difference, Kieran Setiya confronts the inevitable challenges of adulthood and middle age, showing how philosophy can help you thrive. You will learn why missing out might be a good thing, how options are overrated, and when you should be glad you made a mistake. You will be introduced to philosophical consolations for mortality. And you will learn what it would mean to live in the present, how it could solve your midlife crisis, and why meditation helps. Ranging from Aristotle, Schopenhauer, and John Stuart Mill to Virginia Woolf and Simone de Beauvoir, as well as drawing on Setiya’s own experience, Midlife combines imaginative ideas, surprising insights, and practical advice. Writing with wisdom and wit, Setiya makes a wry but passionate case for philosophy as a guide to life.
Download or read book Love Your Enemies written by Sharon Salzberg and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 2023-08-01 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coping with anger and pain is more challenging than ever in these times—and more necessary. Two acclaimed Buddhist teachers offer strategies and wisdom in a book that’s been called “possibly the most inspiring and liberating meditation on love ever written.” When people and circumstances upset us, how do we deal with them? Often, we feel victimized. We become hurt, angry, and defensive. We end up seeing others as enemies, and when things don’t go our way, we become enemies to ourselves. But what if we could move past this pain, anger, and defensiveness? Inspired by Buddhist philosophy, this book introduces us to the four kinds of enemies we encounter in life: the outer enemy, people, institutions, and situations that mean to harm us; the inner enemy, anger, hatred, fear, and other destructive emotions; the secret enemy, self-obsession that isolates us from others; and the super-secret enemy, deep-seated self-loathing that prevents us from finding inner freedom and true happiness. In this practical guide, we learn not only how to identify our enemies, but more important, how to transform our relationship to them. Love Your Enemies teaches us how to . . . · break free from the mode of “us” versus “them” thinking · develop compassion, patience, and love · accept what is beyond our control · embrace lovingkindness, right speech, and other core concepts First published in 2013, Love Your Enemies is, more than ever, required reading for navigating our world. Throughout, authors Sharon Salzberg and Robert Thurman draw from ancient spiritual wisdom and modern psychology to help you find peace within yourself and with the world. * Includes new prefaces from both authors *
Download or read book La Espiritualidad written by Julio Axel Landrón and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-10-05 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Espiritualidad, La formula para sobrepasar la tempestad, en este libro expongo mi busqueda mas alla de las predicas religiosas o sectarias, y planteo el concepto de la espiritualidad como una actitud ante la vida. Mediante ocho temas pertinentes a un publico en general, presento como desde mi infancia y a traves de los procesos de vida fui atraido por fuerzas positivas que no podia codificar, gracias a una situacion familiar que nublo mi vida y todas mis capacidades emocionales como si fuera una tempestad; me di a la tarea de estudiar para conseguir respuestas mas alla del aspecto de la religiosidad ante un ataque del enemigo (Satanas). Trabaje con mi ser interior intensivamente para lograr superar aquel estado de inercia que afectaba a todos mis sentidos. Luego de anos de depresion severa y de encierro, me di a la tarea de estudiar, de investigar y de agregar a mi existir elementos que me brindaran pureza, luz y fuerzas para proseguir mi lento caminar dentro de mi angustia existencial. Cuando desperte del letargo me dispuse al proceso de auto evaluarme y autovalorarme, aspectos que parecian ausentes en mi ser despues de exponerme a tanto sufrimiento y a tanta humillacion. Cuando estamos vulnerables olvidamos que hay fuerzas emergentes esperando para actuar en pro de nuestra crisis. Como maestro de Drama, de Educacion Especial con especialidad en Autismo y como actor/declamador de profesion recurri a metodos, estrategias y procedimientos que me permitieran despojarme de aquel dolor emocional. Resulto interesante como mediante la lectura constante, el ejercicio fisico, la practica del mindfulness "aqui y ahora", una dieta balanceada y el buscar en la iglesia que fuese, del pan espiritual, que calma el dolor de la carne y sirve de refrigerio al alma; todo lo expuesto anteriormente me condujo a adoptar caracteristicas de un ser resiliente y hacer uso de la inteligencia espiritual como herramientas de apoyo ante la desesperante situacion que dominaba mi vida en su totalidad. Sin casi percatarme asumi una actitud espiritual convirtiendome en un guerrero del amor, para emerger del fondo en el que estaba sumergido y poder salvarme de aquella maldicion inminente. Te brindo en este texto que fue guiado por Dios, la formula con la que sali del oscurantismo que me llevo a desviar mi vida. Deseo que puedas usarlo, que incorpores algunas de las practicas que establezco y que sea util para sobrepasar tu tempestad o para que estes alerta y prevenido ante las artimanas del enemigo. Es imperante incorporar la espiritualidad en tu diario vivir, como una actitud ante la vida. "Maldito el hombre que confia en el otro hombre", Julio Axel Landron.
