Book Synopsis Zen Buddhism for anybody Vol. 2: A paradise cannot be created, nor can it be undone by : Daniel Abreu de Queiroz
Download or read book Zen Buddhism for anybody Vol. 2: A paradise cannot be created, nor can it be undone written by Daniel Abreu de Queiroz and published by Daniel Abreu de Queiroz. This book was released on 2021-12-02 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a second hat, meant to be placed over the first one (which was already unnecessary). Ultimately, no one should read this book for children, which will only bring you more confusion. The cover is white, but there’s a lot of mud dripping from the inside. I’ve only made it so that ‘anybody’ has a road to Zen. If the first volume in this series can be seen as an abrupt introduction (like a crazy uncle who immediately throws you in the water, even before you can finish saying “I wish I could swim”), this volume is like a deep dive, reaching for an updated post-modern view on an ancient philosophy of consciousness and language. Have you ever heard of the “Brazilian Jiu-jitsu”? Well, here is some Brazilian Zen! In it, a tropical pirate is shamefully opening vaults of stolen treasure, exposing the hidden secrets from ancient sages. It includes the Diamond Sutra and the Maha-Rahulovada Sutra; excerpts from The Hagakure, the book of the samurai; records from master Joshu and all kinds of texts that influenced Zen Buddhism, that are part of its history, or that have flourished from it.

Book Synopsis Sun Tzu for Women by : Becky Sheetz-Runkle
Download or read book Sun Tzu for Women written by Becky Sheetz-Runkle and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2011-01-14 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a new spin on an oft-studied classic, marketer and martial arts practitioner Becky Sheetz-Runkle reinterprets Sun Tzu's The Art of War for women in the workplace. The ancient Chinese warrior and military strategist penned the masterpiece about 2,500 years ago, but many business experts believe its precepts are as relevant in today's corporate environment as they were on ancient Chinese battlefields. Sheetz-Runkle extrapolates business lessons from Sun Tzu's maxims to help women build on their attributes, overcome obstacles and forward their careers. The book relies heavily on excerpts from the classic, along with the author's own pithy advice and stories of today's women who are the working world's modern generals. While much of the book's counsel is pretty well worn, getAbstract recommends women read this book to fortify themselves as they do battle in the corporate combat zone.
Book Synopsis Zen Stories of the Samurai by : Neal Dunnigan
Download or read book Zen Stories of the Samurai written by Neal Dunnigan and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intriguing encounters between Zen practitioners and samurai warriors are recaptured in this breviloquent collection of short stories drawn from the literature of feudal Japan. These encounters deal with the nature of immediacy and its role in understanding the essence of human existence. For the martial artist faced with a conflict, the Zen state of mind, without distractions and illusions, can determine the difference between life and death. The warrior experience, as revealed in these traditional stories, is retold in a style that is relevant and graspable to the contemporary American martial artist. No particular religious background is required to appreciate these stories, but rather a curiosity about what allows people to achieve extraordinary performance when faced with life and death circumstances. Zen ink paintings by John Hrabushi offer a meditative and intellectual cross training throughout the collection. Foreword by noted Aikido Shihan Lorraine DiAnne.
