The Way of Mindfulness - The Satipatthana Sutta Commentary

Buddha

Publié en 1981

Livre
Documentaire

Translation of the Satipatthana Sutta of the Majjhima Nikaya ; its commentary, the Satipatthana Vannana of the Papancasudani of Buddhaghosa Thera ; and excerpts from the Linatthapakasana Tika. Marginal Notes of Dhammapala Thera on the Commentary. This book, The Way of Mindfulness, contains all the authorized instructions on Satipaþþhána meditation passed down in the Theraváda tradition: the Satipaþþhána Sutta stemming from the Buddha himself (in the more concise version of the Majjhima Nikáya, which omits the detailed analysis of the Four Noble Truths found in the Dìgha Nikáya’s Mahá-Satipaþþhána Sutta); the commentary by Buddhaghosa; and selections from the þìká by Dhammápála. While the volume of material found here will certainly exceed the amount a beginner needs to start the practice, the book will prove itself useful at successive stages and will eventually become a trusted friend and advisor in all its manifold details. Thus the reader should not be intimidated by the detail and the sometimes formidable technical terminology, but should continue reading, selecting whatever material is found useful and leaving until later whatever presently seems difficult to grasp.

Steps on the Path to Enlightenment - A commentary on Tsongkhapa's Lamrim Chenmo - Volume 3

Geshe Lhundub Sopa

Publié en 2008

Livre
Documentaire

Volume 3: the Way of the Bodhisattava. Geshe Lhundub Sopa's Steps on the Path to Enlightenment is a landmark commentary on what is perhaps the most elaborate and elegant Tibetan presentation of the Buddhist path, Tsongkhapa's monumental Lamrim Chenmo. In this third volume of five, readers are acquainted with the bodhisattva's path and the altruistic desire to make service to others the driving force of spiritual development. It begins with an explanation of what distinguishes the Mahayana practitioner from other Buddhists and goes on to describe the nature of bodhichitta. Geshe Sopa then provides a detailed commentary on the two methods to develop this awakening attitude: the techniques of sevenfold cause-and-effect and exchanging self and other. While bodhichitta's significance in Mahayana Buddhism is universally known, Geshe Sopa illustrates how bodhichitta can motivate a devoted practitioner toward complete enlightenment and how this is accomplished through the performance of the bodhisattva perfections. Whether engaged in a scholarly study or personal practice of the Lamrim Chenmo, Geshe Sopa's guiding voice leads readers to a deeper understanding and appreciation of the bodhisattva way.

Livre
Documentaire

Christmas considered from a Buddhist perspective by Lama Thubten Yeshe. Inspiring, thought-provoking. Includes an eight-verse mind-training section for eradicating the demon of the self-cherishing mind, illustrations, and a glossary. Lama Yeshe on the Spirit of Christmas: “True love does not depend on physical expression. You should realize this. True love is a feeling deep within you. It is not just a matter of wearing a smile on your face and looking happy. Rather, it arises from a heartfelt understanding of every other being’s suffering and radiates out to all of them indiscriminately. It does not favor a chosen few to the exclusion of everyone else. This is true love.” ― Thubten Yeshe, Silent Mind, Holy Mind.
