Initial awakening is the most important shift that can occur within our lifetime, but even that key development is no more than an invitation to the larger dance. Ultimately, if we do not clear up after we wake up, then awakening will have been of little consequence. In the absence of that critical clearing process, our awakening is reduced to becoming a pleasant memory of an important event that happened long ago and which we presently cannot quite remember or explain.

This eloquent, impassioned manifesto is possibly the most important message the Dalai Lama can give us about the future of our world. It's his rallying cry, full of solutions for our chaotic, aggressive, divided times: no less than a call for revolution.

Your immutable path to victory! All 10 precepts in this concise audiobook cut to the heart of ending physical confrontations as quickly as possible with empty-hand techniques. Our definition of "ending" is to make the attack stop. There is no running after the now-fleeing assailant to catch and strike him down. There is no lesson, no teaching, no therapy, no epiphany. There is only making that bad guy stop what he is doing instantly so that you and those you care about will be safe. These 10 principles are style-agnostic and all about ending fights immediately.

Calming the mind and quiet thinking are two new premises of rational meditation. This guide to rational thinking takes on mysticism, mindfulness and eastern religious influences by explaining how they do not help men live by means of reason and rational thinking. Mindfulness, in particular, is the meditation system of the left. The author shows how meditation can be done without mysticism, leftist philosophy and the denigration of the individual. Rational Meditation is not about collective joining with groups of like-minded people (Plato) and/or becoming Hephaistos (Freud and Jung). It is ...

What’s Your Aspiration? is about the Dharma path identified by Shinran (1173-1263), a teacher of Japan’s Kamakura period. He would have us ask: “Can I know whether my spiritual aspiration is true-and-real? Have I realized the right starting point?” If I have not, then the subsequent steps will all be misdirected. If, however, the aspiration is true-and-real, then, according to Shinran, everything else follows necessarily. Such an aspiration contains all that is needed as far as practice and attainment.

That nagging sense of incompleteness you can’t quite put into words, not even to yourself or your loved ones. Do you feel like you’re endlessly running, chasing after a personal, family, and professional life that, despite all your efforts, always seems on the verge of slipping through your fingers? If you nodded (even slightly), welcome to the club…and more importantly, know there is a way out.

The name of Ramakrishna has lately been so often mentioned in Indian, American, and English newspapers that a fuller account of his life and doctrine seemed to me likely to be welcome, not only to the many who take an interest in the intellectual and moral state of India, but to the few also to whom the growth of philosophy and religion, whether at home or abroad, can never be a matter of indifference.

Möchten Sie im Chaos des Lebens inneren Frieden finden? In dem von Deepack Chopra empfohlenen Hörbuch "Weisheit des ungesicherten Lebens" zeigt Alan Watts, ein weltberühmter Religionsphilosoph, auf, wie unsere moderne Gesellschaft aufgrund ihrer Betonung von materiellem Erfolg, Sicherheit und Kontrolle oft keine Freude in den Menschen hervorbringt. Er argumentiert, dass das Leben tiefgründig und unvorhersehbar ist und es letztlich an uns liegt, ihm einen Sinn zu geben, wobei Erfüllung nur aus der Akzeptanz der Vergänglichkeit dieses Lebens resultiert.

War is the most ancient and primitive way of dealing with conflict. According to yoga, stopping the cycle of war requires delving into the subtle causes underlying material desires and religious differences. These are selfishness, ego, greed, ethnocentrism, and sense of inferiority. Because of these attributes, we fail to do what we know is right, and persist in doing what we know is wrong. In the scriptures, this phenomenon is called killing the conscience. Drawing on the philosophy of yoga and other spiritual systems, Why We Fight: Practices for Lasting Peace offers practical tools for self-transformation.

In You're Trying Too Hard, Joey Lott explains exactly that - you are trying too hard, and you will never achieve your goals precisely because you already have freedom. Stop trying everything under the sun to bring yourself to true enlightenment. Stop searching for wiser, more special teachers. Stop worrying about lineage and ego and diet and the self. Stop everything. Remain only with direct experience, and let true clarity at least reveal itself.
