Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What would you see if you looked directly at your mind? The Tibetan Buddhist teachings on mahamudra are known for their ability to lead to profound realization. Peaceful and infinitely adaptable, these teachings are as useful for today's busy world as they have been for centuries. Written by the tutor to the seventeenth Karmapa, Essentials of Mahamudra is a commentary on Tashi Namgyal's famous Moonlight of Mahamudra - a text that the sixteenth Karmapa had identified as the most valuable for Westerners. Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche recognized that Western meditators don't just need to know how to maintain our meditation practice - we need to know why we should do it. Unmatched in its directness, Essentials of Mahamudra addresses both these needs, rendering one of the most advanced forms of meditation more easily adaptable to our everyday lives.

Download or read book Pointing Out the Dharmakaya written by Khenchen Thrangu and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2012-04-16 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the heart of successful Mahamudra practice is the ability to understand the nature of mind. The Ninth Karmapa Wangchuk Dorje (1556–1603) was the acknowledged master of this approach. No more authoritative or useful instructions exist than in his three definitive texts on Mahamudra, of which this easy-to-use manual is the shortest and most practical. Pointing Out the Dharmakaya is an indispensable companion to The Ocean of Definitive Meaning, the most vast and detailed of the texts. An invaluable guide for Mahamudra practitioners on how to look at the mind, it is clearly laid out so that the instructions are easy to recall and put to use. Brilliant explanations by Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche make this text vividly relevant for contemporary Western practitioners. For those committed to ascertaining the mind's true nature, checking their experience, and refining and extending their insight, there is no more systematic or comprehensive approach than can be found in this extraordinary set of instructions.

Download or read book Looking Into Mind written by Anthony Damiani and published by Larson Publications. This book was released on 1990 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Looking into mind is an invitation to discover and explore one's own mind from two standpoints. From the practical side, it shows how to use meditation as a means to experience the mind directly, free of any images. From the intellectual side, its compelling, readily accessible analysis of the nature of everyday experience suggests that the world we know is thought into existence by the same creative mental power that thinks our "I." Anthony Damiani presents this combined approach as the most direct way to intimate knowledge of one's own soul, the surest route to reliable spiritual independence. This book is an edited transcription of an illuminating series of discussions between Anthony Damiani and a group of sincere spiritual seekers during a ten-day intensive dialogue in Sweden. Drawing upon an unusually broad philosophic background, fifty years of experience with meditation, fifteen years of teaching students with vastly different psychological and religious orientations, and a remarkable selection of writings from Paul Brunton's notebooks, Mr. Damiani spiced these discussions with sparkling vitality, refreshing humor, and a wealth of practical information about the day-to-day struggle for full human maturity. Anthony Damiani founded the Wisdom's Goldenrod Center for Philosophic studies in 1972 and taught there regularly until his death in 1984. The creative originality of his methods and spiritual vision earned high praise from academics and practitioners alike, including His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama of Tibet. These conversations have been prepared for publication by his wife and students." -- Publisher's description

Download or read book Mindstorms written by Seymour A Papert and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2020-10-06 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this revolutionary book, a renowned computer scientist explains the importance of teaching children the basics of computing and how it can prepare them to succeed in the ever-evolving tech world. Computers have completely changed the way we teach children. We have Mindstorms to thank for that. In this book, pioneering computer scientist Seymour Papert uses the invention of LOGO, the first child-friendly programming language, to make the case for the value of teaching children with computers. Papert argues that children are more than capable of mastering computers, and that teaching computational processes like de-bugging in the classroom can change the way we learn everything else. He also shows that schools saturated with technology can actually improve socialization and interaction among students and between students and teachers. Technology changes every day, but the basic ways that computers can help us learn remain. For thousands of teachers and parents who have sought creative ways to help children learn with computers, Mindstorms is their bible.
