An exploration of the Zen Buddhist path through classic stories of the tradition—from the esteemed Zen teacher Reb Anderson.

عندما ننظر بعمق إلى حياتنا، نرى العديد من الأشياء غير المثالية، مثل ذرات الغبار على المرآة القديمة، وهناك كل أنواع الأشياء التي تجعلنا نشعر بعدم الرضا، وعدم السعادة، حيث تختلف، غالبًا، كلماتنا عن أفعالنا، وتتوتر علاقاتنا بسبب أخطائنا، وتسير أفضل الخطط التي نضعها للمستقبل على عكس ما نتمنى، وعلاوة على ذلك، فإننا في خضم حياتنا نُحدث جروحًا مختلفة بالآخرين، عن قصد أو عن غير قصد، ما يتسبب لنا في الشعور بالذنب والندم.

What is Zen? What are its doctrinal principles? What is its purpose? These are just some of the questions this audiobook will answer. Zen is a methodology of the spirit, conscience and mind that can be adopted by anyone, anywhere and at any time. Zen is a practice that needs to be experienced, not understood. Perhaps for this reason for us Westerners it may seem difficult, but it's actually simpler than you might think.

Una dintre învățăturile lui Thich Nhat Hanh este că fiecare om trăiește într-o continuă legătură cu cei din jurul său, dar și cu natura. Nu putem exista în afara lumii care ne înconjoară, ci doar prin raportare la aceasta. Viața maestrului este dovada cea mai puternică a acestei concepții, pentru că întreaga sa gândire și activitate, care a schimbat percepția asupra spiritualității tradiționale, s-a dezvoltat în relație cu numeroși factori sociali și politici, dar și cu personalități remarcabile.

The Victorian Plague is a satire on self-awareness, religion and philosophy. The title is an allegory to what eastern theology dubs the ego, its effect on the conditioning of the modern primate and civilization as it currently stands. It is the author's unfiltered zeitgeist and theory of reality. The author presents a deconstruction of our modern-day perception of what reality is, what it means to be alive and presents some subjective theories of the historical influences that led us to arriving at the awareness that we currently rest at.

Viele von uns suchen nach außergewöhnlichen Erfahrungen. Wir klettern auf hohe Berge, buchen Wellnessurlaube in Thailand oder entfliehen in Yoga-Retreats - alles, um uns selbst zu finden und mit der Welt in Einklang zu bringen. Zurück im Alltag sind die Einsichten aber oft schnell wieder verschwunden. Die Routine hat uns erneut fest im Griff. Doch das eigene Leben nachhaltig zu verändern, ist gar nicht so schwer. Und wir brauchen auch keine außergewöhnlichen Erlebnisse dafür!

A well-known spiritual saying goes, "Enlightenment is an accident. But we can make ourselves more accident-prone." As an authentic American Zen takes shape, enlightenment continues to be misunderstood as a project to be completed, a goal to be achieved, or a prize to be awarded. Tim Burkett's new book unhooks enlightenment from the hot air balloon of ego and brings it back down to earth.

Lo Zen presentato attraverso brevi storie e dialoghi tratti dalle opere dei principali maestri di questa filosofia di vita orientale. Semplice e nel contempo complesso in modo paradossale, lo Zen non si può definire in modo univoco; potrebbe essere analogo al processo di dimenticare, di disapprendere, di abbandonare le ideologie e tutte le forme fisse di pensiero e di sentimento per mezzo delle quali la mente cerca di afferrare la propria vita.

Appalachian Zen describes a journey we all take, one that Buddhism calls "seeking our true home." Edgy, lyrical, and lovingly rendered, this book recounts how a kid from a Pennsylvania mill-town trailer park grew up—surrounded by backwoods farms and amid grief, violence, and passionate yearning—to become something improbable: a Buddhist minister teaching Zen.

Der bekannte Zen-Meister Thich Nhat Hanh erklärt anhand eines alten buddhistischen Textes, wie Erleuchtung in unserem lauten Alltag verwirklicht werden kann. Viele Menschen glauben, dass Nirvana ein entfernter Ort der Glückseligkeit sei. Doch schon der Buddha lehrte, dass es nur im Hier und Jetzt zu finden ist. Vor diesem Hintergrund erläutert Thich Nhat Hanh in diesem buddhistischen Standardwerk die 36 Verse aus dem "Kapitel über Nirvana" des Chinesischen Dharmapada.

Koans are the record of paradoxical and provocative exchanges between Zen masters and their students that developed in medieval China. These exchanges, though often elaborated through commentary, have also been boiled down to one-line questions or statements to be held in meditation and daily life. Famous examples include, "What is the sound of one hand?" and "Not knowing is most intimate." In Through Forests of Every Color, renowned Zen teacher Joan Sutherland reimagines the koan tradition with allegiance to the root spirit of the koans.

The Zen of Art starts with the premise that making art is akin to what happens when wind engages with a set of chimes. The chance encounter of source and instrument generates a song that enriches and elevates the moment. Author and artist Carolyn Schlam draws a parallel with what she calls the "Zen of Art"—the process of allowing creative expression to manifest in a natural and unencumbered fashion. Schlam tells her personal story of making art while applying the knowledge she has gained to live an "artful life" in chapters on courage, joy, beauty, love, and more.
