Acerca de esta escucha
"Does for mental clutter what Marie Kondo has done for household clutter." (Publishers Weekly)
Relax and find happiness amid the swirl of the modern world with this internationally best-selling guide to simplifying your life by a Japanese monk who embodies the wisdom of Zen.
In clear, practical, easily adopted lessons - one a day for 100 days - renowned Buddhist monk Shunmyo Masuno draws on centuries of wisdom to teach you to Zen your life. Discover how...
Lesson #4: lining up your shoes after you take them off can bring order to your mind;
- Lesson #11: putting down your fork after every bite can help you feel more grateful for what you have;
- Lesson #18: immersing yourself in zazen can sweep the clutter from your mind;
- Lesson #23: joining your hands together in gassho can soothe irritation and conflict;
- Lesson #27: going outside to watch the sunset can make every day feel celebratory;
- Lesson #42: planting a flower and watching it grow can teach you to embrace change;
- Lesson #67: understanding the concept of ichi-go ichi-e can make everyday interactions more meaningful;
- Lesson #85: practicing chisoku can help you feel more fulfilled.
A minimalist line drawing appears opposite each lesson on an otherwise blank page, giving you an opportunity to relax with a deep breath between lessons. With each daily practice, you will learn to find happiness not by seeking out extraordinary experiences, but by making small changes to your life, opening yourself up to a renewed sense of peace and inner calm.
A Penguin Life title
©2019 Shunmyo Masuno (P)2019 Penguin AudioReseñas de la Crítica
“Living a simpler life is a practice. It’s ordinary and it’s everyday. Shunmyo Masuno’s simple and relevant practices land gently and with the most comforting ordinariness, like a warm breath of familiarity to us, the frazzled masses.” (Sarah Wilson, New York Times best-selling author of First, We Make the Beast Beautiful)
“Our mind is blazing in the new dopamine war between alarmist news and attention-hooking apps. The Art of Simple Living is a bucket of water on the flames.” (Neil Pasricha, New York Times best-selling author of The Book of Awesome and The Happiness Equation)
“I love this book. These little Zen practices can bring so much serenity to your life.” (Francine Jay, best-selling author of The Joy of Less and Lightly)

Historia
Every moment in our life happens only once, and if we let it slip away, we lose it forever - an idea captured by the Japanese phrase ichigo ichie (pronounced itchy-GO itchy-A). Often spoken in Japan when greeting someone or saying goodbye, to convey that the encounter is unique and special, it is a tenet of Zen Buddhism and is attributed to a 16th-century master of the Japanese tea ceremony, or "ceremony of attention", whose intricate rituals compel us to focus on the present moment.

Historia
In The Gateless Gate, one of modern Zen Buddhism’s uniquely influential masters offers classic commentaries on the Mumonkan, one of Zen’s greatest collections of teaching stories. This translation was compiled with the Western listener in mind, and includes Koan Yamada’s clear and penetrating comments on each case. Yamada played a seminal role in bringing Zen Buddhism to the West from Japan, going on to be the head of the Sanbo Kyodan Zen Community.

This personal diary records the many small moments that constitute a life of harmony - with the self, the natural world, and friends, family and passersby. In these hours, we watch a wild plum blossom and the moon come up between two deodar trees; we hear a redstart whistle and the rain drum on a tin roof; we recognize the aftermath of loss and the consolation of old companions. A Book of Simple Living is a gift of beauty and wisdom from India's most loved and most understated writer.

The Abundance of Less captures the texture of sustainable lives well lived in these ten profiles of ordinary—yet exceptional—men and women who left behind mainstream existences in urban Japan to live surrounded by the luxuries of nature, art, friends, delicious food, and an abundance of time. Drawing on traditional Eastern spiritual wisdom and culture, these pioneers describe the profound personal transformations they underwent as they escaped the stress, consumerism, busyness, and dependence on technology of modern life.

Historia
This is not your typical Zen book. Brad Warner, a young punk who grew up to be a Zen master, spares no one. This bold new approach to the "Why?" of Zen Buddhism is as strongly grounded in the tradition of Zen as it is utterly revolutionary. Warner's voice is hilarious, and he calls on the wisdom of everyone from punk and pop culture icons to the Buddha himself to make sure his points come through loud and clear.
