Buddha's Brain
Author: Rick Hanson
Publisher: ReadHowYouWant.com
ISBN: 1459624157
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 350
Book Description
Jesus, Moses, Mohammed, Gandhi, and the Buddha all had brains built essentially like anyone else's, yet they were able to harness their thoughts and shape their patterns of thinking in ways that changed history. With new breakthroughs in modern neuroscience and the wisdom of thousands of years of contemplative practice, it is possible for us to shape our own thoughts in a similar way for greater happiness, love, compassion, and wisdom. Buddha's Brain joins the forces of modern neuroscience with ancient contemplative teachings to show readers how they can work toward greater emotional well-being, healthier relationships, more effective actions, and deepened religious and spiritual understanding. This book will explain how the core elements of both psychological well-being and religious or spiritual life-virtue, mindfulness, and wisdom--are based in the core functions of the brain: regulating, learning, and valuing. Readers will also learn practical ways to apply this information, as the book offers many exercises they can do to tap the unused potential of the brain and rewire it over time for greater peace and well-being.

A daily reminder that you have exactly same potential for achieving enlightenment as the Buddha did. An increase in your level of love, compassion, and patience, even for those who would do you harm. Who was the Buddha? Siddhartha Gautama, a prince born in Nepal more than 2500 years ago, gave up all of his worldly possessions at the age of 29 and went on a journey to understand the true nature of human existence. After almost seven years of intense concentration and self-deprivation, Gautama found the answers while sitting in deep meditation beneath a Bodhi tree. At that moment, Gautama became "The Enlightened One" - the Buddha. He spent the next 45 years traveling throughout northern India and Nepal, teaching thousands upon thousands of disciples the way to end suffering and to achieve enlightenment. Importantly, the Buddha insisted that the Truth led away from him, and instead towards our inner selves. This is why the Buddha is not worshipped like a god. Rather, he is revered as a great teacher. He was just a man who became enlightened, and who showed the world that each of us could become enlightened too. Today, over 500 million people in every corner of the world call themselves Buddhists. Why? Because millions of people have discovered for themselves how the Buddha's teachings can bring relief from suffering and fill their beings with joy.
