Book Description
A unique, adaptable model for meditation practice that ties together elements of the various Buddhist traditions The deceptively simple three-phase method presented in Three Steps to Awakening is a meditation practice that can be worked with for a lifetime. Larry Rosenberg looks to Zen, Insight Meditation, and the teachings of J. Krishnamurti to find three kinds of meditation that anyone can do and that complement each other in a wonderful way: (1) breath awareness, (2) breath as anchor, and (3) choiceless awareness. Having the three methods in one’s repertoire gives one meditation resources for any life situation. In a time of stress, for example, one might use breath awareness exclusively. Or on an extended retreat, one might find choiceless awareness more appropriate. The three-step method has been taught to Larry’s students at the Cambridge Meditation Center in Cambridge, Massachusetts, for many years. After teaching the three-step method, Larry goes on to show how to bring the awareness gained in meditation to the world off the cushion, into relationships and into all areas of daily life.

3 Steps to Awakening
Author: Osho
Publisher: Osho International
ISBN: 0880500921
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
Waking up or awakening means that the dream is over - the dream of unconsciousness we all spend most of our lives in - often a life of tensions, anguish, feeling unfulfilled and running after illusions which are just substitutes of what we are really looking for. This little book is actually a big book, containing Osho's entire teaching from an early period of his public life and teachings. He takes us through three steps on the path to awakening, steps to help us to get out of our conditioning, our limitations and frustrations. "There are only three steps: freedom of consciousness, simplicity of mind, and emptiness of mind." For freedom of thought, for liberation of thought, and for the awakening of intelligence, the first thing, the first awareness that is needed is: “No thought is mine. No thought is mine.” While we read this book, Osho takes us through this experience of letting go of identification, allows us to get a glimpse what a life of awakening can be.

Author: Heng Ju (Bhikshu)
Publisher: Buddhist Text Translation Society
ISBN: 1601030738
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 327
Book Description
Based on the principle that peace in the world begins with peace in our hearts, two American monks, Heng Ju and Heng Yo, undertook an arduous 10 month pilgrimage in 1973. As they bowed down in full prostrations to the ground once every three steps, they prayed for world peace and sought spiritual awakening. A collection of excerpts from the journal they kept, this book offers an honest and moving account of their journey as they relate their internal and external hardships as well as their interactions with their teacher, Master Hsuan Hua, and their awakenings. This book shows Buddhism in its true form: a practice to transform the mind and thereby the world in which we live. This 40th anniversary edition comes with a preface written by Jeanette Testu, daughter of the former Heng Ju who had returned to lay life.
