Download or read book The Power of Small Changes written by Dr. Paul R. Fleischman and published by Pariyatti. This book was released on 2024-09-23 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do modern disciplines like biology, psychology, and the study of culture contribute to the understanding and practice of a classical meditation like Vipassana? Following the encouragement given to him by the Vipassana teacher, S.N. Goenka, to explain this ancient tradition to contemporary audiences, Dr. Paul R. Fleischman unites science and spirituality, technical language and poetry, logic and intuition in a manner that is as virtuosic as it is understandable. The Power of Small Changes is a collection of decades of public talks and university lectures that speak to readers who have no previous knowledge of Vipassana, as well as to experienced practitioners, using down to earth explanations reinforced by academic knowledge and rigor. While many of the chapters in this book have previously been shared online in various formats, the present collection features newly revised and expanded content, focusing on practical issues like how to maintain daily meditation practice, coming to grips with the monkey mind, understanding the evolutionary biology that meditation utilizes, appreciating the role of teachers, community, and tradition; and preserving its nonsectarianism. The importance of a spiritual, rather than a financial basis for Vipassana, as well as the historical role of the Buddha are also clarified. A uniquely valuable chapter discusses the safety of Vipassana, explaining its contributions and limitations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offers an eye-opening and revealing look into an interpersonal/scientific conflict involving the ‘Father of Modern Soil Mechanics’ Karl von Terzaghi. Exemplifies the ‘human side’ of science in which, sometimes, the prominence of a theorist and the inertia of the ‘accepted wisdom’ can inhibit progress and rational discussion of the facts.

Download or read book Monks Monkeys and Mannequins written by Ajit Nambiar and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2019-01-24 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The newspaper headlines read ‘Young girl shot by her lover in Vapi railway yard’. Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Raghuraj Rai deputes Assistant Police Inspector (API) Reeva Deshpande to investigate the case. When Reeva Deshpande sets out to probe the murder, she finds herself entangled in the chain of mannequins, monkeys and monks of the trade. The trade here is the greed and desires of few men under scrutiny to the basic rights of others who merely exist and survive. Reeva realises that when a whole society lives under the clouds of crime, her own roof cannot be safe. Like mannequins, they enter the city; like monkeys, they jump from branches to branches to fulfil their greed; and like monks, they manipulate people for their own convenience. This book is about Devakinandan Singh and Lanus Polo, who believe that power flows through the barrel of a gun. What they forget is that by force they can control the world but not their own fate.

Download or read book American Folktales From the Collections of the Library of Congress written by Carl Lindahl and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-03-17 with total page 703 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This two-volume collection of folktales represents some of the finest examples of American oral tradition. Drawn from the largest archive of American folk culture, the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress, this set comprises magic tales, legends, jokes, tall tales and personal narratives, many of which have never been transcribed before, much less published, in a sweeping survey. Eminent folklorist and award-winning author Carl Lindahl selected and transcribed over 200 recording sessions - many from the 1920s and 1930s - that span the 20th century, including recent material drawn from the September 11 Project. Included in this varied collection are over 200 tales organized in chapters by storyteller, tale type or region, and representing diverse American cultures, from Appalachia and the Midwest to Native American and Latino traditions. Each chapter begins by discussing the storytellers and their oral traditions before presenting and introducing each tale, making this collection accessible to high school students, general readers or scholars.
