Enlightenment Meditation

From a spiritual master unlike any, a spiritual masterpiece like no other. AUTHOR, TEACHER AND SPIRITUAL MASTER Jed McKenna tells it like it's never been told before. A true American original, Jed succeeds where countless others have failed by reducing this highest of attainments — Spiritual Enlightenment — to the simplest of terms. Effectively demystifying the mystical, Jed astonishes the reader not by adding to the world's collected spiritual wisdom, but by taking the spirituality out of spiritual enlightenment. Never before has this elusive topic been treated in so engaging and ...

What if you could go back and sit under a tree with the Buddha and listen to him giving his original meditation instructions? What did he teach over 2500 years ago, and are those original instructions valid for today’s practitioners? Most of us cannot travel through time, but we do have the records of the Buddha’s teachings in the Pali suttas. In this book, Mark Edsel Johnson, Ph.D., demonstrates that by following a meditation practice called Tranquil Wisdom Insight Meditation or TWIM, which is directly based on the records of the Buddha’s teachings, practitioners quickly experience ...

“What is meditation? Pure fascination with this moment, exactly as it is”. Jeff Foster, a survivor of suicidal depression and now a popular spiritual teacher, invites us to discover the “life-saving” inner sanctuary of true meditation. He re-envisions meditation as a vast non-dual field of Presence, accessible to all of us in each and every moment of our lives; an effortless place where we can be our authentic selves—imperfections, doubts, fears, exhaustion and all. Meditation does not involve zoning out, numbing ourselves to the pain of living or trying to become spiritually ...

What if you could view the psychological thriller of your life as an exhilarating adventure instead? What if, when you do, your story ends? We can be a little too obsessed with self-improvement, increasing self-awareness, letting go of superiority, self-discovery and healing, conscious manifestation, or finding perpetual peace. - But what if reading self-improvement, enlightenment, and self-realization books only kept us in the trap of searching and never truly finding what we deeply long for? - What if our spectacular struggle to change and improve ourselves and our situations was stopping...

Tian-tai Mountains are famous for their well-known reputation as a residence of saints and immortals. From ancient times adepts engaged in Chinese Buddhism and Daoism all longed for coming to Tian-tai. Richly endowed by nature, the mountain beauty spots produced unique harmonious culture, the striking prototypes of which were vagabond-poets Han Shan (Japanese "Kanzan") and Shi De (Jittoku). Once expelled from Guo-qing monastery Shi De was given a home at Mount Hanshan where Han Shan, his intimate friend and sworn elder brother, had resided for a half of century. Musing on Han Shan's poems ...

How much choice do I have in my life? What is liberation? How can one experience enlightenment? Onto all these questions and many others, Edward Salim Michael shines the light of a master who, with infinite compassion, guides aspirants on the path he, himself, traveled, a path that permitted him to attain the highest realizations and whose obstacles and traps he knows.

Kali Ma has little interest in mere talk. She is all about action. Action produces results. Talk just produces more talk. Kali Ma is sounding the alarm to all who seek awakening in 2013 and beyond. Kali Ma is announcing the Coming of Lord Shiva and the Radiant Awakening of Universal Consciousness on our planet. He is coming very soon. Lord Shiva is Universal Consciousness. He is Universal Light. His very name means "pure spiritual goodness." This global event may happen in 2013, hence the urgency of getting this message out. On the outside, I expect evidence of these massive changes by 2016...

This book is actually a spiritual game in which short thoughts, Keys, open windows to consciousness. All you have to do is to read them slowly, read them carefully, with occasional creative pauses: you read a few keys, then stay quiet and listen inward, then another set of keys, then listen inward to see if something emerges from the silence within, and so you move forward in the book. You have a good chance of deciphering most of the keys, experiencing their meaning directly: 'Yes, that's right! I know and feel the same way!" Here are all the little puzzles: Keys to Consciousness!

Eager to share the life-enhancing benefits he found in Buddhism, skeptic Scott Snibbe presents this 8-step programme that allows anyone to build positive mental habits. Inspired by the ancient Buddhist path to enlightenment yet firmly grounded in modern science, How to Train a Happy Mind is the first mainstream book to show how you can achieve happiness using analytical meditation.
