Reverse Meditation is for anyone who wants to bring the challenges of life onto the path of awakening. When things get hard, it’s time to turn your practice on its head—and throw out any assumption that meditation exists to insulate you from the confusion, difficulties, and uncertainty of life. “By putting your meditation into reverse,” Holecek teaches, “you’ll actually find yourself going forward. Step into your pain and you can step up your evolution.”

Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.
Revisado: 03-23-24
This audiobook brings this quotation into a full understanding. That I do not neccesarily have a fear of death, but have had a feeling of anxiety of the pain leading up to death. Now I feel that I can work with this uneasiness which allows me to mature and transform these sensations. I can be in the midst of chaos and still be calm at heart.

Take a trip through the realms of hell with a man whose temporary visitor's pass gave him a horrifying - and enlightening - preview of its torments. This true account of Sam Bercholz's near-death experience has more in common with Dante's Inferno than it does with any of the popular feel-good stories of what happens when we die.

Very intriguing story
Revisado: 11-18-22
For me the most memorable moment of this story is the description of the 'borderland',
'levels', or the 'non space' in hell. That the conceptual understanding of the emetions of aversion, greed, indifference, attachment, jealousy, and pride could be the equivalent to the hell, preta, animal, human, demigod, and god realms. May all beings be freed from these afflicting emotions. May these emotions mature and transform into their antidotes of love, gratitude, wisdom, discernment, empathetic joy, and equanimity.
This story shows me that how I live and perceive my life now can be for the benefit of myself and others. That contemplating death for me is not a morbid fascination, but has a liberating quality. Liberating because paradoxically thinking about death puts what is important in life into perspective. Even in the midst of chaos may all be calm at heart.
Many thanks to the author for sharing this, and for his time, effort, and patience in making this book.

Do you practise meditation because you want to feel good? Or to help you relax and be "happy"? Then frankly, according to Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse, you are far better off having a full-body massage than trying to practise the Dharma. Genuine spiritual practice, not least the Ngndro preliminaries, will not bring the kind of comfort and ease most worldly people crave. Quite the opposite, in fact.

From his rapid-fire stand-up comedy riffs to his breakout role in Mork & Mindy and his Academy Award-winning performance in Good Will Hunting, Robin Williams was a singularly innovative and beloved entertainer. He often came across as a man possessed, holding forth on culture and politics while mixing in personal revelations - all with mercurial, tongue-twisting intensity as he inhabited and shed one character after another with lightning speed. But as Dave Itzkoff shows in this revelatory biography, Williams’ comic brilliance masked a deep well of conflicting emotions and self-doubt.

Loved it! Listening to this audiobook on my days off, the time slipped away because I didn't want to stop. I found it very interesting to hear a different perspective on parts of his life that I have grown up with. As a child I remember seeing Robin in his Mork and Mindy series plus some of his comedy acts, and listening to them was like reliving the experience again. Although I know that everything is impermanent and subject to change, I will always miss him. I am glad that he has been a part of my life.
Even in the midst of chaos, these difficult and sometimes uncertain times we live in now, may all who are reading this, and their families, may they be healthy and calm at heart.

Old Path White Clouds presents the life and teachings of Gautama Buddha. Drawn directly from 24 Pali, Sanskrit, and Chinese sources, and retold by Thich Nhat Hanh in his inimitably beautiful style, this book traces the Buddha's life slowly and gently over the course of 80 years, partly through the eyes of Svasti, the buffalo boy, and partly through the eyes of the Buddha himself. Old Path White Clouds is destined to become a classic of religious literature.

When novice monk Tenzin Dorje is told by his lama that the Red Army is invading Tibet, his country's darkest moment paradoxically gives him a sense of purpose like no other. He accepts a mission to carry two ancient, secret texts across the Himalayas to safety. Half a century later, in a paradox of similarly troubling circumstances, Matt Lester is called upon to convey his own particular wisdom as a scientist, when Matt's nanotech project is mysteriously moved from London to a research incubator in Los Angeles.

The so-called Tibetan Book of the Dead has been renowned for centuries as a cornerstone of Buddhist wisdom and religious thought. More recently, it has become highly influential in the Western world for its psychological insights into the processes of death and dying - and what they can teach us about the ways we live our lives. It has also been found to be helpful in the grieving process by people who have recently lost their loved ones. This authoritative translation preserves the form and spirit of the original and was prepared especially for Western audiences.

Preparing for Death while alive
Revisado: 02-14-21
Through the practices in this text one can prepare for the eventuality of death while still alive. Coming to terms with a process that is 100% for all, for me takes the fear and anxiety out of many things in life.
The translator and reading from Robert Thurman I feel has been performed with the modern reader in mind. Thank you for this wonderful jem! Thukjeche!

Gallileo, Copernicus, Newton, Niels Bohr, Einstein. Their insights shook our perception of who we are and where we stand in the world and in their wake have left an uneasy co-existence: science vs. religion, faith vs. empirical enquiry. Which is the keeper of truth? Which is the true path to understanding reality?

For me, it's interesting to think about how the scientific community and religion can peacefully coexist, and how that the two can compliment each other. It was great that this audiobook has been narrated by Richard Gere. Thank you for an enjoyable experience!
