Download or read book Happily Ever After written by Xingyun and published by Buddha's Light Publishing. This book was released on 1995 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How often have you heard someone say, "My father always said...or "My coach used to say...? Chances are, the best teachers you've had are the ones you can still quote. The ability to distill a lot of wisdom into a few words is the hallmark of great teaching. A well-placed proverb, quote, or pithy saying can focus and clarify one's thinking marvelously. Venerable Master Hsing Yun, like all great teachers, has also been a great student. Over the past few years, he has written about a collection of one hundred quotes, things he heard from his teachers, his fellow students, ancient Chan masters, modern lay devotees--in short, from any and every possible source of wisdom. By sharing these sayings with us, describing the context in which he heard them, and reflecting on their meaning and importance for good living, he opens a window into his life, as well as ours.

Download or read book Buddha's Diet written by Tara Cottrell and published by Running Press Adult. This book was released on 2016-09-06 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pampered prince Siddhartha tried dieting and didn't like it anymore than you do. When he became the Buddha, he found the "middle way" between overindulgence and abstinence. Modern science confirms what Buddha knew all along: it's not what you eat that's important, but when you eat. Sure, he lived before the age of doughnuts and French fried, but his teachings provide a sane, mindful approach to achieving optimum health.
Book Synopsis Handing Down the Light by : Fu Chi-Ying
Download or read book Handing Down the Light written by Fu Chi-Ying and published by Buddha's Light Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master Hsing Yun has transformed the role of Chinese Buddhism in the modern world. Under his leadership large centers have been established in Taiwan, Los Angeles, and Sydney, along with a host of other organized groups throughout the world. Perhaps it is better to abandon the wish to explain greatness and simply look at the life story and delight in the lore and happenings. Like other persons of fame, Master Hsing Yun will never be completely explained. While recognition and support were given in extraordinary amounts, he had to overcome obstacles that would have defeated most people. The forces of history were not favorable for a young Chinese Buddhist monk in the mid-twentieth century. He survived and held to his career as spiritual teacher in the face of formidable odds. Perhaps his greatest accomplishment has been the courage to achieve great success and recognition without retreating from it. It has not been in his way to enjoy a peaceful life in a hermitage after achieving acceptance from a community of disciples. His energy and commitment seem as powerful today as they much have been when he arrived in Taiwan, a strikingly handsome and charismatic young monk. No future histories of Chinese Buddhism will be complete without reference to the influences of this leader. Book jacket.

Book Synopsis Establishing a Pure Land on Earth by : Stuart Chandler
Download or read book Establishing a Pure Land on Earth written by Stuart Chandler and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2004-07-31 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With more than 150 temples in thirty countries, Foguangshan has developed over the last thirty-five years into one of the world’s largest and most influential Chinese Buddhist movements. The result of two years of fieldwork in Foguangshan temples in Taiwan, the U.S., Australia, and South Africa, this volume is an unprecedented examination of the inner workings of a dynamic and innovative religious movement. Based on direct observations, private interviews, and careful textual and historical analysis, Stuart Chandler looks at the challenges faced by Foguangshan’s leader, Master Xingyun, and his followers as they try to adhere to traditional practices and values while tapping into the advantages afforded by modern, global society. Foguangshan’s slogans (“Humanistic Buddhism” and “Establishing a Pure Land on Earth”) are placed in historical context to reveal their role in shaping the group’s attitudes toward capitalism, women’s rights, and democracy, as well as toward the traditional Chinese virtue of filial piety and the Chinese Buddhist concept of “links of affinity” (jieyuan). Chandler goes on to analyze Foguangshan’s educational system and its understanding of how precepts relate to contemporary problems such as abortion and capital punishment. The book’s final chapters consider the cultural and political dynamics at play in Foguangshan’s ambitious attempt to spread Humanistic Buddhism around the world and how its followers have reinterpreted the Buddhist ideal of homelessness to take advantage of the spiritual potentialities of people’s lives as global citizens.
