Book excerpt: Any investor or trader can benefit from an Eastern KISS (Keep It Short and Simple) approach.In the 90's, Praveen Puri was a day trader glued to screens, phones, and CNBC. Puri found himself running faster just to stay in the game. He felt pressured to leverage his portfolio with futures and options. He worked hard, suffered stress, and failed to meet his performance goals.Then, in 2000, he studied and applied the lessons of Taoism, Zen, and Hinduism. As a result Puri created the simple, but powerful "Stock Trading Riches" (STR) system. He now "surfs" in flow with the market, trades longer term, and is no longer glued to the screen. He only trades common stocks and exchange traded funds. He is no longer stressed, and his performance exceeds his expectations.

This book was released on 2008-03-25 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In August of 2007, when global stock markets plunged and gold headed to a low of $660 an ounce, many investment experts warned of an imminent drop in the price of gold to $500 an ounce. Instead, J.S. Kim told his clients to buy gold and predicted a month later that gold would reach $850 an ounce by the end of 2007. Gold hit $850 an ounce on January 3, 2007. On November 16,2007, as Wall Street firms advised their clients to "buy the dips", J.S. boldly stated, "Use rallies like the one last Wednesday where the Dow piled on 300+ points in one session to sell out if for some reason you are still heavily invested in U.S. stocks" and predicted that triple-digit losses in the Dow would soon become "commonplace." By the second week of January, the DJIA and the Nikkei 225 had both plunged more than 1,000 points while stock markets in Korea, Hong Kong, and Europe also plummeted. Learn why you shouldn't listen to the investment industry...ever. And discover how to build a fortune from the coming global economic crisis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'An original, insightful, and provocative evaluation of our economic situation today. If you wonder about the social implications of Buddhist teachings, this is an essential book.' David Loy, author Money, Sex, War, Karma. 'Lays bare the pernicious consequences of corporate capitalism and draws forth from Buddhism suggestions for creating benign alternatives conducive to true human flourishing.' Bhikkhu Bodhi, editor In the Buddha's Words. After his Enlightenment the Buddha set out to help liberate the individual and create a society free from suffering. The economic resources now exist to offer everyone decent food, shelter, work and leisure, to allow us to fulfil our potential as human beings. What is it in modern capitalism which prevents that? Can Buddhism build something better than our current economic system? Vaddhaka Linn explores these questions by examining our economic world from the moral standpoint of the Buddha.

Download or read book Shoes Outside the Door written by Michael Downing and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2002-08-15 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A close-up look at the scandals that rocked the San Francisco Zen Center, a leader in alternative religious practice and the counterculture in America, and their repercussions. The remarkable forty-year history of the people who established the first Buddhist monastery outside of Asia in the history of the world has never been told. Michael Downing wondered why. "I'm living proof of why you better not speak out," explained one ordained Zen priest. "The degree to which I was scapegoated publicly was most effective in keeping everyone else quiet." In 1959, a Soto Zen priest took leave of his family in Japan to minister to the congregation of a Buddhist temple in San Francisco. Alan Watts and others spread the word that an authentic Zen Roshi was living there, and students, poets, drifters, and seekers began to attend his lectures. Impressed by their sincerity and commitment, Suzuki Roshi began to offer instruction in zazen (meditation) and other Buddhist practices to these devoted young spiritual pioneers. The San Francisco Zen Center was born. And then, in 1983, meltdown. A sex scandal rocked Zen Center, and it triggered tragedies and headlines about abuse of power that called into question the whole matter of alternative religious practice in America. Overnight the most prominent community of Buddhists in the West found itself at the vanguard of a cultural revolt against spiritual authority. For Shoes Outside the Door, Michael Downing spent three years studying documents and interviewing more than eighty people who were there, at ground zero. As engaging as any mystery, as mysterious as any political campaign, as political as any family gathering, this story will haunt and challenge readers as they unravel this essential chapter of American history.

Download or read book An Onion in My Pocket written by Deborah Madison and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a groundbreaking chef and beloved cookbook author, Deborah Madison—“The Queen of Greens” (The Washington Post)—has profoundly changed the way generations of Americans think about cooking with vegetables, helping to transform “vegetarian” from a dirty word into a mainstream way of eating. But before she became a household name, Madison spent almost twenty years at the Zen Center in the midst of counterculture San Francisco. In this warm, candid, and refreshingly funny memoir, she tells the story of her life in food—and with it, the story of the vegetarian movement—for the very first time. From her childhood in Northern California’s Big Ag heartland to sitting sesshin for hours on end at the Tassajara monastery; from her work in the kitchen of the then-new Chez Panisse to the birth of food TV to the age of farmers’ markets everywhere, An Onion in My Pocket is a deeply personal look at the rise of vegetable-forward cooking and a manifesto for how to eat (and live) well today.
