Mastering the Core Teachings of the Buddha
Author: Daniel Ingram
Publisher: Aeon Books
ISBN: 1780498152
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 715
Book Description
The very idea that the teachings can be mastered will arouse controversy within Buddhist circles. Even so, Ingram insists that enlightenment is an attainable goal, once our fanciful notions of it are stripped away, and we have learned to use meditation as a method for examining reality rather than an opportunity to wallow in self-absorbed mind-noise. Ingram sets out concisely the difference between concentration-based and insight (vipassana) meditation; he provides example practices; and most importantly he presents detailed maps of the states of mind we are likely to encounter, and the stages we must negotiate as we move through clearly-defined cycles of insight. Its easy to feel overawed, at first, by Ingram's assurance and ease in the higher levels of consciousness, but consistently he writes as a down-to-earth and compassionate guide, and to the practitioner willing to commit themselves this is a glittering gift of a book.In this new edition of the bestselling book, the author rearranges, revises and expands upon the original material, as well as adding new sections that bring further clarity to his ideas.

Playing with Forms

ISBN: 9781695220850
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 398
Book Description
With a backpack, a young engineer travels the world seeking to enhance his education and gain insight into the world at large and the human condition. His quest for knowledge takes him beyond the visible world and into a world of quantum connections, non-physical beings, and a story of history that isn't teachable in the classroom. Working with spiritual leaders and channelers as a source of knowledge, he weaves the story of his travels into the story of the source and nature of humanity, of Earth, and the cosmos. Eduardo left everything he had and started to travel the world alone, using only a backpack, and staying with local people. In some parts of the world, he traveled without using any money at all. After visiting almost every country of the world and talking to many people, he discovered the nature of humanity and a hidden, ancient history of the world. He met people who shared this knowledge. After several spiritual experiences, he met higher dimensional beings who helped him to deepen his understanding. He describes what he found in simple, straightforward language, making it easy to understand. You will find interesting stories from all over the world, impressive information from ancient civilizations, religions, history, psychology, physics, medicine, politics, and how it's all related to our modern world. But most importantly, how to use it in your daily life. He explains how powerful our thoughts are, and how we experience our reality through mental images that he calls forms.
