Book Description
"With wisdom, creativity, and artistry, Susan Piver brings a Buddhist lens to the spiritual map of the enneagram. The results are vibrant and nourishing; a banquet of insights that help us transmute our difficult emotions into pure expressions of our basic goodness." —Tara Brach, best-selling author of Radical Acceptance and Trusting the Gold "By blending her long-time studies of Buddhism and the enneagram, Piver supports us to turn away from incessant self-improvement and relax into our natural brilliance. She assures us that everything we seek . . .is already here." —Mark Hyman, MD, 14-time New York Times best-selling author and founder of “Ultrawellness” The Buddhist Enneagram is a deeply personal exploration of Buddhist teachings on liberation from suffering and how the enneagram illuminates the way. This work is not an academic overview of interesting correlations between the systems. Rather, it shows how the enneagram gives powerful insight into your unique spiritual journey—and how you can support others in theirs. Buddhist teacher and New York Times best-selling author Susan Piver has spent nearly 30 years in parallel study of Tibetan Buddhism and the enneagram. Piver masterfully weaves together two ancient schools of wisdom and magic in a compassionate exploration of the nine styles of traveling the path from confusion to wisdom. With Buddhist teachings for each of the nine types, Piver illustrates that, no matter what your spiritual path is (including the path of no-path), the enneagram offers profound support for living a compassionate, fiercely awake life. In this ground-breaking work, we find a way to untether ourselves from the merciless treadmill of self-improvement to see what is already perfect in ourselves, in others, and in every moment. This is the warrior’s journey.

Buddhism and the Enneagram
Author: Mary R. Bast, Ph.d.
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781502951526
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 38
Book Description
"We have so many ways to cope with life, many ways to worship comfort and pleasantness. All are based on the same thing: the fear of encountering any kind of unpleasantness. Charlotte Joko Beck, "The Cocoon of Pain, Nothing Special: Living Zen. In these many ways we worship "the god of no discomfort and no unpleasantness." We become lost in our "feverish efforts" and lose touch with the life that presents itself to us every moment. The Enneagram offers powerful insights into our personality styles, but we sometimes forget it is primarily a vehicle for awakening. We remain asleep to the degree that we abide by our nine conditional rules of habit: "I must... ...correct what is wrong." ...take care of others' needs." ...achieve and get results." ...regret what is missing in my life." ...understand everything." ...beware of potential problems/threats." ...be positive, upbeat, look to the future." ...be in control." ...respond to others' ideas and expectations." The Enneagram paths of transformation and the path of satori (liberation) in Buddhist tradition both recommend: - letting go of reliance on logic alone in the intuitive search for a new viewpoint; - realizing the world is not as we've known it to be, because our ordinary knowing has been conditioned by life circumstances; - releasing our habitual behaviors and beliefs and coming to know that everything is relative, conditioned, and impermanent. This small book provides new insights into the spiritual paths of the nine Enneagram styles: 1. khanti-patience 2. metta-loving-kindness 3. sacca-truthfulness 4. upekkha-equanimity 5. dana-generosity 6. sila-morality 7. nekkhamma-renunciation 8. panna-wisdom 9. viriya-energy
