Zen Buddhism

Maya Noise is about the life and insights of a modern day mystic. In 1996, at the age of 33, John Dalton had a profound realization. He could have set himself up as a Guru, changed his name, started a commune, and developed a worldwide following. Instead, he did something more original. In the tradition of Autobiography of a Yogi, and with the authority of The Power of Now, Maya Noise is a refreshing addition to the canon of literature for those searching for the truth, and an unorthodox alternative for those interested in world peace.

Little is known of the life of Zen master Huang-Po (Obaku in Japanese). He was born in Fuzhou, China, and died about 850 AD. His main teacher was Pai Chang (Hyakujo) (720 - 814). The main source for Huang-Po's teaching is the Treatise of the Essentials of the Transmission of the Mind, compiled by his student, Pei Xiu. Huang-Po's teaching is focused on the concept of Mind, the essence of intrinsic Buddahood. According to the master, the search for enlightenment was a useless distraction, as seeking for something inevitably separates the seeker from what is being sought.

"Hōjōki" (Pensamientos desde mi Cabaña) fue escrita alrededor del año 1212. Este ensayo es una reflexión sobre la naturaleza efímera de la vida humana y la impermanencia del mundo. Chōmei narra su propia experiencia de vivir en una cabaña aislada en las afueras de Kyoto, alejado de la sociedad y sus problemas.

Wir sind so sehr mit den Belangen des täglichen Lebens beschäftigt, dass wir uns selbst verloren haben. Dieses Hörbuch beschäftigt sich mit der Frage nach dem Sinn des Lebens. Denn diese ist letztlich die Frage nach unserem wahren Selbst. Es ist die Frage nach dem, wer und was wir im Grunde unseres Wesens wirklich sind. Mit klaren Worten veranschaulicht Zen-Meister Zensho W. Kopp eindrücklich, wie wir die trügerische Natur unserer Konzepte durchschauen können, so dass wir uns über unsere selbst geschaffenen Begrenzungen erheben.

Prima o poi certe domande a cui non siamo riusciti a rispondere, che abbiamo accantonato in un angolo della mente, si ripresentano decise a non farsi più mettere da parte. In questo breve ma prezioso saggio, Montanari le affronta in modo originale. Il cuore del audiolibro è un'antologia di brani tratti dal Vangelo, messi a confronto con altrettanti passi della letteratura buddhista e, in particolare, della vasta e vivacissima aneddotica sui maestri ch'an (cinesi) e zen (giapponesi). Il risultato è sbalorditivo: nel Vangelo esiste davvero un Cristo zen.

"Wir müssen aus dem tiefsten Nichtdenken heraus denken (...) das Optimum, das Bersten, der Orgasmus des Bewusstseins, das Jenseits-des-Denkens, das absolute, kosmische, universale, globale Denken (...) tritt unbewusst, natürlich und automatisch ein."

Der Geist wird in einem Moment ganz plötzlich unendlich weit und löst sich im großen Ganzen auf: Was könnte die Erfahrung der Erleuchtung besser beschreiben, als das Bild einer Explosion in die Unendlichkeit.
