Story
明るく生きるために必要なのは、ズバリ笑いです!心を清らかにする、ユーモア術をお釈迦さまの言葉とともにご紹介します。
仏教とユーモア、一見繋がりのないテーマのようですが、
実は仏教はとても「笑い」を大切にした宗教なのです。
「笑い」といっても、世間が面白がっているような品格のない笑いではありません。
仏教の笑いには高い品格があります。
また、真理を理解することで得られる微笑みでもあります。
そして役に立ち、教えがあるものを大切にします。
本書では、お釈迦さまの独特なユーモアを
仏教の教えとともに紹介しています。
具体的なエピソードが多数用いられ、ユーモアたっぷりな切り返しや
相手のこころまで楽にする言い回しを学ぶことが出来ます。
きっと「仏教は厳しいもの」と言われるイメージが払拭され、
お釈迦さまに親しみを感じるようになるでしょう。
怒りや悲しみにとらわれていては笑顔にはなれません。
人生を清く朗らかに過ごすために大事なことは、微笑みを持って生きることです。
智慧と笑いに満ちた毎日を送るために、仏教のユーモアを参考にしてみませんか。

心に沁み入るブッダの教え第9弾!お釈迦さまが教えた集中力の方法論!その秘密を、初期仏教の長老が詳しく紹介します。
「集中力」といえば、とてもよいもの、大切なものというイメージが強いのでは
ないでしょうか。
事実、集中力があれば能力は向上し、どんなに難しいことにも挑戦して乗り越え
る事が出来ます。
しかし、残念ながら集中力はなかなか手に入れることが出来ず、また自由に扱う
こともできません。
ではなぜ集中力は自由にコントロールすることができないのでしょうか?
仏教の世界では、集中力に関して明確な答えを持っています。
仏教は解脱、悟りを最終の目標としていますが、
そこに到達するこころをつくる過程に、集中力を育てる理想的な方法が確立され
ているのです。
その方法は「集中力鍛練法」と言っても良いものなのです。
本書では経典に記されたその方法論の具体的な実践法から、
自由にならない集中力の知られざる危険性も紹介しています。
集中力の本当の姿を知ることで、
「集中するとは対象を楽しむものだ」という真理が理解できるでしょう。-

ブッダの教えを説き続ける人気説話シリーズ第3作。 「苦しみ」に正面から向き合うことが、真の幸福へとつながるのです。
あなたは「明るい未来」を求めているのではないでしょうか。
幸福を求め、そのための「明るい未来」を目指すのだと思います。

「社会と人類の未来」と「個人の未来」です。
それでは、お釈迦さまの説く「幸福」とは何でしょうか。
それは実践を始めた瞬間から無限に得られるものであるといいます。
そのために大切なことは「苦」を見つめること。
「苦」の原因を知り、なくすこと。
それが必要です。
「苦」をなくし、「幸福になる」ヒントを探してみてください。
仏教の教えの中から、「幸福になること」を考えてみることのできる本です。-

閉塞した現代の中で、人々はどう生きていくべきか?初期仏教の大家、スマナサーラ長老と精神科医・香山リカが議論します。二人の専門家が導いた、生きるために最も大切なこととは?
上座仏教長老のスマナサーラさんと精神科医の香山リカさんが対談。
仏教の思考などは知らない人には一見奇妙に見えるかも知れませんが仏教の教えはとても理にかなった考えで、考えさせられる物がたくさんあります。
「妄想は罪である」とは仏教の教えであります。
妄想というのは、人間の欲、怒り、嫉妬、憎しみなどから生まれ、肉体的にも変化をもたらし大変危険なものとされています。
長老のスマナサーラさんは
「生きるということは、死ぬ瞬間までを生きる。だから生きているのがつらいというのは初めから当たり前だ」
と言っています。
つまり、苦労をせずに生きている人などこの世に存在しないということになります。
生きている事に疑問を感じている現代人の方は、ぜひ「生きる勉強」をしてみてはいかがでしょうか?Failed to add items

Story
待望のベストセラー第2弾が遂にFeBeに登場!怒りをなくすためにはどうしたらよいか?それは生命の根源にある、怒りを克服する方法にあります。
怒らないこと。
それは人生を幸せに生きるために欠かせない、大切な心構えです。
しかし私たちは「もう怒りたくない」と思っても、怒ってしまいます。自分の意思ではどうにもならないもの、それが怒りなのです。
仏教では、嫉妬、後悔、軽視など、十種類の感情も怒りの姿だといいます。
普段使っている「怒り」とは、少し違います。
それを優しく、丁寧に、筆者は教えてくれます。
本オーディオブックは『怒らないこと』の続編ですが、前作を聴いていなくても十分理解できる内容となっています。
前作から、さらに心の深層に分け入り、生きることの矛盾に真正面から向き合い、答えを出します。
ブッダが教える、怒りを克服する人生論をオーディオブックで学びませんか?

「道徳的」に生きれば、道が開ける。一見簡単に見えてなかなかできない、道徳的な生き方の真髄を教えてくれます。
「道徳」という言葉から、何を思い浮かべますか。
道徳なんて堅苦しいもの、面倒くさいものというイメージを持っている方が多い
のではないでしょうか。
しかし仏教で言う道徳とは「選択」の問題です。
幸せになるための正しい「選択」をする方法が「道徳」であり、
それはなにも難しい哲学でもよく理解できない話でもありません。
大切なのは、その選択を的中させるためにどうすればよいのか、ということです。
そしてその答えは簡単で、道徳的な生き方をすることとイコールになるのです。
本書の題となっている『的中する生き方』とは道徳を実践した生き方のことなのです。
本当の「道徳」とはとても面白いものです。
道徳を守ろうとして苦労することで、自分の中の怒りや憎しみに気づき、
そこから「では怒りをなくそう」と思うことによって楽になります。
理性で考え、行動することで、正しい生き方の選択ができるようになっていくの
です。
本書を通じて、本物の道徳を理解しましょう。
それが幸せで成功に満ち溢れた人生を実現する最短の方法なのです。-

心に沁み入るブッダの教え。私たちが幸福になる秘訣は、「世の中の考え」と「この世の真理」を正しく理解することにあります。
「あなたは、ふだん、まったくあべこべの感覚で生きていますね」
こう言われたら、あなたはどう感じるでしょうか?
「あべこべ」とは「さかさま・逆」の意味。
つまり、「あなたはさかさまの感覚で生きています」ということです。
私たちは、そんなことはないと思うでしょう。
ですが、お釈迦さまから見れば、実際は皆、あべこべ感覚で生きていると言います。
たとえば、「人生は楽しい」と考えても、実際の人生は「苦」ばかりということ。
「私は死なない」と思っても、人間には必ず「死」が訪れます。
「世の中の考え」と「お釈迦さまがいうこの世の真理」はあべこべです。
それは、私たちがものごとを勝手に捏造していることが原因なのです。
この本では、私たちが真の幸福と安らぎを得るために、ものごとをありのままに
知るために、お釈迦さまの道を紹介してくれます。-

Story
心に沁み入るブッダの教えのシリーズ第6弾、生きる意味を知るには、自分とは何か?を知り尽くす必要があることを、優しく語りけてくれます。
「生きることとは何か」という疑問を解決するには、
まず「私」とは何かを知ることです。
では「私」とはいったい何者なのでしょうか?
仏教の世界では、「私」でさえも瞬間、瞬間に変化する中で
捏造された幻覚であると認識します。
今存在している「私」はその時々に生まれては消える、実体の成り立たないもの
なのです。
捏造せず、妄想せず、ただそこに「いる」だけということが発見できたとき、
私たちは初めて正知に基づいた生き方が出来るのです。
「生きること」の答えは「動き」「知ること」そして「苦しみ」。
しかし誰だって「苦しみ」は嫌なもの。
だからこそ、生きる目的は「苦しみを乗り越えること」になるのです。
人生における幸福などは、妄想によって生み出された幻想に過ぎません。
しかし、それでも誤知の世界から脱し、正知に導いてくれる道のりはあります。
本書は、苦しみを乗り越え、究極の幸福への一歩を教えてくれる一冊です。

Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

When Saeris comes face-to-face with Death himself, she inadvertently reopens a gateway between realms and is transported to a land of ice and snow.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.
