Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Japanese master offers a Zen perspective on the nature of time and being, further exploring the concepts of impermanence, living in the present moment, and more It’s easy to regard time as a commodity—we even speak of “saving” or “spending” it. We often regard it as an enemy, when we feel it slipping away before we’re ready for time to be up. The Zen view of time is radically different than that: time is not something separate from our life; rather, our life is time. Understand this, says Dainin Katagiri Roshi, and you can live fully and freely right where you are in each moment. Katagiri bases his teaching on Being Time, a text by the most famous of all Zen masters, Eihei Dogen (1200–1253), to show that time is a creative, dynamic process that continuously produces the universe and everything in it—and that to understand this is to discover a gateway to freedom from the dissatisfactions of everyday life. He guides us in contemplating impermanence, the present moment, and the ungraspable nature of past and future. He discusses time as part of our inner being, made manifest through constant change in ourselves and our surroundings. And these ideas are by no means metaphysical abstractions: they can be directly perceived by any of us through meditation.

When we learn to embrace each moment of our lives, we’re empowered to let go of our emotional patterns and false beliefs about ourselves, and we discover the compassion that’s been there all along."

Download or read book A Moment in the Sun written by John Sayles and published by McSweeney's. This book was released on 2011-10-18 with total page 1293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s 1897. Gold has been discovered in the Yukon. New York is under the sway of Hearst and Pulitzer. And in a few months, an American battleship will explode in a Cuban harbor, plunging the U.S. into war. Spanning five years and half a dozen countries, this is the unforgettable story of that extraordinary moment: the turn of the twentieth century, as seen by one of the greatest storytellers of our time. Shot through with a lyrical intensity and stunning detail that recall Doctorow and Deadwood both, A Moment in the Sun takes the whole era in its sights—from the white-racist coup in Wilmington, North Carolina to the bloody dawn of U.S. interventionism in the Philippines. Beginning with Hod Brackenridge searching for his fortune in the North, and hurtling forward on the voices of a breathtaking range of men and women—Royal Scott, an African American infantryman whose life outside the military has been destroyed; Diosdado Concepcíon, a Filipino insurgent fighting against his country’s new colonizers; and more than a dozen others, Mark Twain and President McKinley’s assassin among them—this is a story as big as its subject: history rediscovered through the lives of the people who made it happen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cut through the busyness and anxieties of daily life to discover the simple happiness of living in the present moment, as taught by a world-renowned Zen monk In this book, Thich Nhat Hanh—Zen monk, author, and meditation master—distills the essence of Buddhist thought and practice, emphasizing the power of mindfulness to transform our lives. But true mindfulness, Hanh explains, is not an escape. It is being in the present moment, totally alive and free. Based on a retreat that Thich Nhat Hanh led for Westerners, You Are Here offers a range of effective practices for cultivating mindfulness and staying in the present moment—including awareness of breathing and walking, deep listening, and skillful speech. These teachings will empower you to witness the wonder of life and transform your suffering, both within and outside you, into compassion, tenderness, and peace. As Thich Nhat Hanh declares, “the energy of mindfulness is the energy of the Buddha, and it can be produced by anybody.” It is as simple as breathing in and breathing out.

Download or read book Freedom in Every Moment written by Vincent J. Morello and published by Motivational Press LLC. This book was released on 2017-01-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Freedom In Every Moment: Transcending the Struggles of Daily Life' provides a succinct program of 21 spiritual lessons from early to more advanced stages of spiritual development. Each lesson is rooted in a teaching from an Eastern or Western spiritual tradition, which we believe gives this volume broad appeal. Readers learn how to overcome negative thinking and mood states, how to deal with fears and doubts, what their true identity is, and how to find contentment. The lessons contain timeless teachings and exercises to bring the teachings to life on a daily basis. What is different about this book from other self-help books? First, it is the topics we have selected, which strike at the heart of the daily struggles of those who seek to uplift their mental and emotional states: the nature of the mind, overcoming fear, our purpose in life, and uniting with Higher Consciousness. Second, it is the depth of explanation and information we provide from teachers such as - Lao Tzu, St. Francis, Albert Einstein, among others - and the applicability of the teachings for daily life. Third, it is the types of activities we incorporate, which can make the teachings come alive in minutes per day. Fourth, this book presents a PROGRAM of study; it is not simply a book offering a different teaching each day. Readers who apply the program are expected to notice concrete changes in reducing stress and uplifting their emotional states. Finally, we have synthesized both spiritual and psychological wisdom in a readily understandable format.Freedom in Every Moment is targeted to an audience that includes spiritual seekers, psychotherapy and addictions clients, and the general public. The reader is invited to study a different lesson each day, week, or month. We envision the possibility of a companion workbook, which may be well-suited for persons in addictions recovery centers, for example.
