Download or read book The Little Red Book of Yoga Wisdom written by Kelsie Besaw and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-01-07 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism, the word yoga means “spiritual discipline.” Modern yoga is thought of mainly in the context of its postures, but the actual meaning of yoga goes much deeper than that. Though its exact history is unknown, the first recorded instance appears in ancient Shamanism, a religion that involved healing its community members, among other functions. Throughout history, yoga has developed and adapted depending on its practicing members. While its original focus was applying and understanding the world, its focus was later changed to the self, with self-enlightenment being the ultimate goal. Later, the poses and meditation became critical elements in practicing yoga, a development introduced by Buddhist teachings. Yoga has many interpretations, and it has many teachers. From ancient yogis such as Buddha to more modern experts such as B. K. S. Iyengar, there is much wisdom to be gleaned from these pages, and there is much that can be discarded. As many say in the yoga world, if something does not work for you, then it is not true for you. There have been countless yogis and yoga experts throughout history, delving into the deepest meanings of yoga as well as scratching its most shallow surface. As readers will discover from this inspirational collection of yoga wisdom, there is no one way to do yoga, see yoga, or feel yoga.

Download or read book Journey Beyond A Non Dual Approach written by Acharya Dr. Kuntimaddi Sadananda and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2019-09-13 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone is searching for everlasting happiness. Yet, none can find it by pursuit; at the same time, none can stop the pursuit. This seems to be the tragedy of human life—nay, the life of every being. Every pursuit is limited space-wise, time-wise and object-wise. Any pursuit that is limited cannot give everlasting happiness. Some promise eternal happiness after death if one follows their path. Yet, no one has returned to claim that they achieved it by following that path. One sage declares that ‘truth is a pathless land’. Vedanta ascertains that the truth is beyond the space-time-object-wise limitations, and you are that truth–tat tvam asi. The journey beyond space and time limitations is the central theme of the discussions in this text.

Download or read book Controlling the Thought Life written by Barrington C. Hibbert and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2019-02-01 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mind is where most of the battles in your life are won or lost. If the thought life is obedience to Christ, you can live a more spiritually fulfilled and successful life. In Controlling the Thought Life, author Barrington C. Hibbert helps you look at your negative thoughts in light of God’s word and discusses how to experience better outcomes in many areas of your life. Hibbert addresses the thought life from a biblical perspective rather than from a psychological one. While psychology provides many insights, and offers some solutions, it is inadequate to solve the human problem, for at the heart, humanity’s problem is the sin nature, which only God can fix. Controlling the Thought Life provides an inspired, straightforward, and easy-to-read discussion on an array of dysfunctional thoughts. It examines these chosen thoughts, applies God’s word to them, and encourages you to obey what Christ’s word has to say about them rather than letting these thoughts dominate you. Hibbert shows that you can be transformed by a renewed mind and can strengthen your walk with Christ.

Download or read book The Flowing Bridge written by Elaine MacInnes and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2007-11-28 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Koans-such as "What is the sound of one hand clapping?"-have penetrated deeply into popular consciousness - even being referenced on, for example, The Simpsons. Yet, those who encounter koans in the traditional literature or in the context of exploring Zen practice themselves can often find them utterly baffling. The Flowing Bridge is the first-ever book to address all of the first koans that Zen students encounter-"What is Mu?", "What is the sound of the single hand?", and the so-called "miscellaneous" koans that have historically been kept as esoteric secrets. Sister Elaine MacInnes, a Catholic nun and a Zen teacher in the lineage of the renowned master Koun Yamada, offers exceptionally valuable guidance to beginners on how to work with koans-and reveals an uncommon depth of insight and an easeful technical mastery of Zen's most misunderstood and most powerful tools. This book is sure to become a classic, standing alongside The Gateless Gate and The Blue Cliff Record as a must-read for anyone seeking Zen's subtlest teachings and deepest power.

Download or read book Feet on Earth Head in Heaven written by Norma Jean Duncan and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2012-11-29 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Norma Jean Duncan found God following a personal revelation of his love. In a life now dedicated to him, she offers her readers an account of her journey that illustrates the difficulties of living in a secular world with a heavenly perspective. Duncan weaves personal reflections into her discussions on the glory of God, prayer, love, forgiveness, obedience, and terminal illness and shows the relevance of scriptural wisdom to the life of every modern believer. There are chapters on eternal scriptural truth, and the factors that corrupt it and lead to the promotion of intolerance and injustice in organized religion. The author examines this difficulty in relation to subjects like creation, sexuality, gender submission, faith and works, the spiritual standing of those who have no knowledge of Christ, and the rise of aggressive atheism. Through discussion of these controversial but important topics, her intention is that the Christian community will lead and not follow the contemporary secular world.
