Book Description
What is offered today is not Buddhism, it is New Age. And any investigation leads us to the same authors and translators. And it's not that it's funny. Buddhism was in death throes, once again like so many others throughout its history, and someone came to revive it. And this time it was the Theosophical Society. He managed to keep Buddhism from being engulfed by the Jesuit missionaries and he “saved” it by reviving it, but of course, giving it that theosophical flavor that is what permeates Buddhism today. A touch that corrupts the true meaning of the Buddha's Dhamma and that has contributed to consolidating ignorance even in those who sought the truth. If the water is thirsty, there is nothing that can be done.

The Great Treatise on the Stages of the Path to Enlightenment (Volume 1)
Author: Tsong-kha-pa
Publisher: Shambhala Publications
ISBN: 1559394420
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 434
Book Description
The first volume of the 15th-century spiritual classic that condenses Buddhist teachings into one easy-to-follow meditation manual The Great Treatise on the Stages of the Path to Enlightenment (Tib. Lam rim chen mo) is one of the brightest jewels in the world’s treasury of sacred literature. The author, Tsong-kha-pa, completed it in 1402, and it soon became one of the most renowned works of spiritual practice and philosophy in the world of Tibetan Buddhism. Because it condenses all the exoteric sūtra scriptures into a meditation manual that is easy to understand, scholars and practitioners rely on its authoritative presentation as a gateway that leads to a full understanding of the Buddha’s teachings. Tsong-kha-pa took great pains to base his insights on classical Indian Buddhist literature, illustrating his points with classical citations as well as with sayings of the masters of the earlier Kadampa tradition. In this way the text demonstrates clearly how Tibetan Buddhism carefully preserved and developed the Indian Buddhist traditions. This first of three volumes covers all the practices that are prerequisite for developing the spirit of enlightenment (bodhicitta).

Nagarjuna's Middle Way
Author: Mark Siderits
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 161429061X
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 370
Book Description
Winner of the 2014 Khyenste Foundation Translation Prize. Nagarjuna's renowned twenty-seven-chapter Fundamental Verses on the Middle Way (Mulamadhyamakakarika) is the foundational text of the Madhyamaka school of Mahayana Buddhist philosophy. It is the definitive, touchstone presentation of the doctrine of emptiness. Professors Siderits and Katsura prepared this translation using the four surviving Indian commentaries in an attempt to reconstruct an interpretation of its enigmatic verses that adheres as closely as possible to that of its earliest proponents. Each verse is accompanied by concise, lively exposition by the authors conveying the explanations of the Indian commentators. The result is a translation that balances the demands for fidelity and accessibility.
