Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES, USA TODAY, and PUBLISHERS WEEKLY BESTSELLER “Full of valuable insights to guide you.”—WILL SMITH “Thoughtful and life-affirming . . . a must-read.”—TONY ROBBINS “This book will put you back in charge of your own life.”—TOM BRADY A new perspective on the overused and misunderstood concept of “karma” that offers the key to happiness and enlightenment, from the world-renowned spiritual master Sadhguru. What is karma? Most people understand karma as a balance sheet of good and bad deeds, virtues and sins. The mechanism that decrees that we cannot evade the consequences of our own actions. In reality, karma has nothing to do with reward and punishment. Karma simply means action: your action, your responsibility. It isn’t some external system of crime and punishment, but an internal cycle generated by you. Accumulation of karma is determined only by your intention and the way you respond to what is happening to you. Over time, it’s possible to become ensnared by your own unconscious patterns of behavior. In Karma, Sadhguru seeks to put you back in the driver’s seat, turning you from a terror-struck passenger to a confident driver navigating the course of your own destiny. By living consciously and fully inhabiting each moment, you can free yourself from the cycle. Karma is an exploration and a manual, restoring our understanding of karma to its original potential for freedom and empowerment instead of a source of entanglement. Through Sadhguru’s teachings, you will learn how to live intelligently and joyfully in a challenging world.
Book Synopsis Opening the Hand of Thought by : Kosho Uchiyama
Download or read book Opening the Hand of Thought written by Kosho Uchiyama and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2005-06-10 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over thirty years, Opening the Hand of Thought has offered an introduction to Zen Buddhism and meditation unmatched in clarity and power. This is the revised edition of Kosho Uchiyama's singularly incisive classic. This new edition contains even more useful material: new prefaces, an index, and extended endnotes, in addition to a revised glossary. As Jisho Warner writes in her preface, Opening the Hand of Thought "goes directly to the heart of Zen practice... showing how Zen Buddhism can be a deep and life-sustaining activity." She goes on to say, "Uchiyama looks at what a person is, what a self is, how to develop a true self not separate from all things, one that can settle in peace in the midst of life." By turns humorous, philosophical, and personal, Opening the Hand of Thought is above all a great book for the Buddhist practitioner. It's a perfect follow-up for the reader who has read Zen Meditation in Plain English and is especially useful for those who have not yet encountered a Zen teacher.
Book Synopsis Imagining Karma by : Gananath Obeyesekere
Download or read book Imagining Karma written by Gananath Obeyesekere and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2002-11-11 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With Imagining Karma, Gananath Obeyesekere embarks on the very first comparison of rebirth concepts across a wide range of cultures. Exploring in rich detail the beliefs of small-scale societies of West Africa, Melanesia, traditional Siberia, Canada, and the northwest coast of North America, Obeyesekere compares their ideas with those of the ancient and modern Indic civilizations and with the Greek rebirth theories of Pythagoras, Empedocles, Pindar, and Plato. His groundbreaking and authoritative discussion decenters the popular notion that India was the origin and locus of ideas of rebirth. As Obeyesekere compares responses to the most fundamental questions of human existence, he challenges readers to reexamine accepted ideas about death, cosmology, morality, and eschatology. Obeyesekere's comprehensive inquiry shows that diverse societies have come through independent invention or borrowing to believe in reincarnation as an integral part of their larger cosmological systems. The author brings together into a coherent methodological framework the thought of such diverse thinkers as Weber, Wittgenstein, and Nietzsche. In a contemporary intellectual context that celebrates difference and cultural relativism, this book makes a case for disciplined comparison, a humane view of human nature, and a theoretical understanding of "family resemblances" and differences across great cultural divides.
Book Synopsis The Rice Seedling Sutra by : Yeshe Thabkhe
Download or read book The Rice Seedling Sutra written by Yeshe Thabkhe and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-03-10 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of Tibet’s great scholars presents the Buddha’s profound teachings on the laws of karma and dependent arising. In the Rice Seedling Sutra, the Buddha unpacks the law of cause and effect. He notes how in the natural world, a seed becomes a sprout, which produces a flower, which bears fruit. A seed has no intention to sprout; when the right conditions are assembled the fruit arises. Similarly, when our senses encounter an object, a sense consciousness arises naturally, without our intending it. This, says the Buddha, is also how karma works and how actions performed out of ignorance create suffering, whether we want it or not. And this same law of causality also governs enlightenment—when the right conditions are assembled, awakening is assured. In many sutras like this one, the Buddha explains that to understand his Dharma is to understand dependent arising. Geshe Yeshe Thabkhe explores dependent arising, and the corollary teaching of emptiness, through this sutra and others. Commenting on the works of Indian masters such as Shantaraksita, he shows how belief in a creator god is incompatible with dependent arising, and by illuminating the teachings of Nagarjuna and Chandrakirti, he shows how we do—and do not—exist. Geshe Yeshe Thabkhe was among the last generation of scholars to be trained in Tibet before the Chinese occupation. He has been teaching Westerners for decades, having worked with top scholars in the United States, and he is especially familiar with this sutra, having translated the commentary by Kamalasila into Hindi. Here his deep familiarity, combined with his extensive command of the Buddhist scriptures, allows him to present the Buddha’s words in a rich and authoritative context.

Book excerpt: In modern societies, enhancing the quality of our life has become one of our main objectives.

Download or read book Karma written by Mahendra D Raajul and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-10-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although it is just a book, but can change your life. Life is a combination of happiness and sorrow. Thousands of questions arise in the mind when sorrows exceed the patience level; you too may have such questions in your mind. Undoubtedly, this book will answer such questions and guide you to achieve materialistic success through the Karma path while being on the Dharma path. Why are some children born into rich families, some into poor families, and some parents do not have children at all? Some children die soon after birth, some die in the womb itself, and even some children die even after the parents spend lakhs of rupees in the hospital. Why do some qualified people stumble throughout the lives and some unqualified people reach the heights of success while someone commits suicide by drowning in debt? Why does someone win millions of rupees in the lottery and other lakhs of ticket buyers remain empty-handed when everyone did the same work? Why do some dogs lead a better life than a normal human being and some wander the streets all their lives? Why, facing the same accident, do some people or families die on the spot while others don't even get scratched? *Who created all the above circumstances for the sufferer? The events and circumstances of life are the definite and combined result of 3 Karmas; destined, ancestral & present karma, nothing more or less. but 2 forms of karmas are extreme suffering to the human being (Contd). *The principle of karma is bound to return the fruits of all those physical-spiritual actions, deeds, thoughts, and desires, in this life or in the next life, that a human being produces every moment from birth to death through the senses, organs, attachment, unconsciousness, and mind. Acts with the cooperation of conscience and emotion. Actions are bound by the subtle recognition of doership in action. When one acts and believes "I am doing", the ego arises. Whereas man is a thinking being whose nerves are controlled by the brain, the brain is controlled by knowledge, knowledge is controlled by intelligence, and intelligence is controlled by consciousness, which is "I." But there is something hidden inside the "Me", which is the true and pure form of consciousness (Contd). *Generally, when a person is deliberating on karma, he mainly feels the fate and present karma, while he is also carrying a heavy burden of the deeds of his ancestors. Just as the children are inherited for the wealth, relationships, and blood-DNA of the ancestors, similarly, the fruits and defects of the ancestors' deeds are also inherited. Karmic relationship is the reunion of souls, who are born again and again to settle the many merits and demerits, unresolved, incomplete accounts against each other from previous lives. (Contd) *By establishing himself as neutral and formless, God has given birth to a human being in the form of shape, side, intelligence, strength, emotion, and needs, as the pride of the creator of a subtle soul. God has made man responsible for his actions and reactions. God is not responsible for his actions, only for their consequences. (Contd) *Humans are practically at a standstill without action in life. But if he makes an effort or takes action, then he is always in motion; even if he is going in the wrong direction too, he will probably return to the right path again. Remember that no matter how big or small one's mistakes are, in the end, one learns from them. When one learns from mistakes and adjusts one's way of doing things accordingly, one is always bound to make progress. The person who keeps trying continuously avoids the sense of helplessness that they may experience in challenging situations. Whether the person is action-oriented or not, he should give up the stagnant state of laziness in life and keep on working (Contd).
Book Synopsis The Science Of Karma by : Dada Bhagwan
Download or read book The Science Of Karma written by Dada Bhagwan and published by Dada Bhagwan Foundation. This book was released on 2015-05-04 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the course of life, many people become puzzled by circumstances beyond their control – both their own and those of others. It is only natural to wonder, “Why do bad things happen to good people?” While investigating, if one encounters the principle of karma, one may still be left asking, “What does karma mean, and how exactly does it work?” In the book “The Science of Karma”, Gnani Purush (embodiment of Self knowledge) Dada Bhagwan explains the meaning of karma according to spiritual science. Dadashri offers in-depth answers to questions such as: “What is the law of karma, and how can I master it?”, “What is destiny, and does destiny relate to karma?”, “Is it your destiny to forever face karmic lessons?”, “Can spiritual enlightenment liberate one from karma?” Dadashri offers a precise karma definition, and then continues on to explain that the knowledge of Self is the beginning of true spiritual development. From spiritual awakening, and from understanding the law of karma, one learns how to get inner peace within the problems in everyday life. For those wondering how to live in peace in the midst of life’s challenges, this book is an invaluable resource.
Book Synopsis Karma is the Uncreated Law of Truth and Justice. by : Helena Petrovna Blavatsky
Download or read book Karma is the Uncreated Law of Truth and Justice. written by Helena Petrovna Blavatsky and published by Philaletheians UK. This book was released on 2022-05-17 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the first flutter of renascent life, the mutable radiance of the Immutable Darkness passes from an inactive state into one of intense activity, and then begins its work through continuous differentiation and individualisation —propelled and ushered by Karma. Cosmic Cycles are subservient to the effects produced by this activity. Radiating from the rootless root-essence, the One Cosmic Atom becomes seven atoms on the plane of matter. Each atom is then transformed into a centre of energy, and radiates seven rays on the plane of spirit and seven creative forces in nature. The spiritual septenary on the right path and the material counterpart on the left, though they evolve in close embrace, remain separate till the end of the Kalpa. The visible Kosmos consists of self-produced beings, creatures of Karma. The true Buddhist denies the creation of Patristic fancy and regards the anthropomorphic God as a gigantic shadow thrown upon the void of space by the imagination of ignorant men. The task of analysing and classifying the human being as a terrestrial animal may be left to Science. But man’s inner, spiritual, psychic, and moral nature cannot be left to the tender mercies of an ingrained materialism. Molecularists such as Huxley demean certainty to probability, and rush to announce firm conclusions while the premisses are still to collect. They had sown wind and reaped the whirlwind. Within the global cycles of material descend and spiritual ascend, there are perpetual racial, national, and individual cycles of time ever returning upon themselves, periodically and intelligently, in Space and Eternity. The continuity and unity of history are principles of scientific divination, by which alone the mind penetrates the sealed records of the past and the unopened pages of the future. The whole past of the Earth is nothing but an unfolding present. The chief features of one’s life are always in accordance with the “constellation” one is born under, i.e., with the characteristics of its animating principle or the deity that presides over it. The closer the approach to one’s prototype “in heaven,” the better for the mortal whose personality was chosen by his own personal deity as its terrestrial abode. Our destiny is written in the stars. The closer the union between the mortal reflection, man, and his celestial prototype, the less dangerous the external conditions and subsequent reincarnations, which neither Buddhas nor Christs can escape. When the last strand is woven and man is enwrapped in the network of his own doing, he finds himself completely under the empire of his self-made destiny. It then either throws him like the inert shell against the immovable rock, or carries him away like a feather in a whirlwind raised by his own actions. Reason governs the world, its history, and its destiny. All else is subordinate and subservient to it, and the means for its development. Those who seek to satisfy their own purposes, are instruments of a higher and broader purpose, of which they know nothing, though they may realise it unconsciously. The law of evolution is now carrying us along the ascending arc of our cycle, when discordant effects will once again merge into counterbalanced causes, and all things will have regained their original harmony. The great Racial Cycles affect all the nations and tribes; but there are minor and national as well as tribal cycles within those, which run independently of each other. In the East they are known as Karmic cycles. In the West, since Pagan Wisdom has been repudiated as having grown from by dark powers supposed to be at constant war (and in opposition to the little tribal Jehovah), the awful significance of Karma-Nemesis has been entirely forgotten. But, in truth, Karma is the creator of nations and mortals; and it is they who make of her either a fury or a rewarding angel. There is not a single accident in our lives, not a misshapen day, which could not be traced back to our own doings in this or in a previous life. Karma-Nemesis is the synonym of Divine Providence, minus design, goodness, and every other finite qualification, so unphilosophically attributed to her. An Occultist will not speak of the goodness or cruelty of Providence; but he will teach that she guards the virtuous and watches over them in this, as in future lives; and that it punishes the evil-doer — even to his seventh rebirth. Were no man to hurt his brother, Karma would have neither cause to work for, nor weapons to act through. Nor would the ways of Karma remain inscrutable, were men to work in union and harmony, instead of disunion and strife. For our ignorance of those ways — which one portion of mankind calls the ways of Providence, dark and intricate; while another sees in them the action of blind Fatalism; and a third, mere chance, with neither gods nor devils to guide them — would surely disappear, if we would but attribute all these to their correct cause and learn how to be kind to each other. Karma is a law of occult dynamics, governing life throughout the universe, whether visible or invisible. Only the sceptics will shut their eyes, ostrich-like, to their own fate. This state will last till we begin acting from within, instead of ever following impulses from without; namely, those produced by our physical senses and barefaced selfishness. Until then, the only palliative to the evils of life is union and harmony — brotherhood in action, not simply in name. The suppression of one single bad cause will suppress not one, but a variety of bad effects, and hold back additional causes in a world already full of woe and evil. Karma is the unerring law of truth and justice which makes empires rise and fall, and adjusts even laughter at the mutual expense of sects, learned societies, and individuals. Prognostication of future events is neither prevision, nor prophecy: it is simply occult knowledge and mathematically correct computations that enable the wise men of the East to foretell, for instance, that the British Isles are on the eve of being destroyed by submarine volcanos and water, followed by France and other European countries, led by their own cycles of racial Karma.
Book Synopsis The Law of Karma by : Ramaswamy Thanu
Download or read book The Law of Karma written by Ramaswamy Thanu and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-14 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Law of Karma, invisibly influences actions, events and consequences on human beings, providing the only answer to mysterious events and results taking place in day to day life. It makes or mars one's Destiny. This great principle in Hinduism according to which the life one enjoys or suffers is the result of one's past good or bad deeds early in this life or in previous lives, provides the backbone for living a moral life. Out of the twelve laws, associated with Karma and to live a good life the author has chosen one which has great potential to reform and refine man to the pinnacle of excellence. At the same time it provides man an answer to mysterious events taking place in one's life for good or bad. There is long-term karma, where the person does not even remember the actions he has done for which he is getting the results (punishment) in the present. This may be in this life or in previous lives.The tentacles of the law discussed in this book are more powerful and justice awarding than that could be expected from any judiciary in the world. The reward, good or bad, puts an end to all further thinking on the subject and prompts the individual to live in peace and work for the welfare of mankind. This law is stated below."As you sow, so shall you reap". This is also known as the "Law of Cause and Effect". If what we want is Happiness, Peace, Love, and Friendship Then we should BE Happy, Peaceful, Loving and a True Friend."It, is further explained here."A calf lost in a crowd of a thousand cows will ultimately find out its mother, chase it and join. Similarly good or bad deeds with their cumulative result and impact will chase the doer in the ensuing birth and leave its impact on him, the nature of the result depending on whether the deeds were good or bad. This is a certainty". The author has taken some real life examples in different areas and stages of human activity to illustrate and facilitate understanding of the law. As a man sows, he reaps. The fruit is of the same quality as the action. It provides the major motivation to live a moral life. It is important to know the laws of karma, as we know the laws of nature. When we know and follow these laws we become free. If we violate these laws, we suffer. Just as if we do not respect the laws of nature. God-fearing people afraid of performing wrong actions suffer all the time and others do wrong deeds and yet have no problems. Under such a situation, we blame God for this injustice. But God does not interfere with the laws of karma. He just gives us wisdom and the power to face situations. So what is crucial in every action is knowledge. This book seeks to provide a key to such knowledge through explaining in a simple way in all humility to gain such knowledge to live a happy and useful life for all.
Download or read book Dharma Punx written by Noah Levine and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fueled by the music of revolution, anger, fear, and despair, we dyed our hair or shaved our heads ... Eating acid like it was candy and chasing speed with cheap vodka, smoking truckloads of weed, all in a vain attempt to get numb and stay numb. This is the story of a young man and a generation of angry youths who rebelled against their parents and the unfulfilled promise of the sixties. As with many self-destructive kids, Noah Levine's search for meaning led him first to punk rock, drugs, drinking, and dissatisfaction. But the search didn't end there. Having clearly seen the uselessness of drugs and violence, Noah looked for positive ways to channel his rebellion against what he saw as the lies of society. Fueled by his anger at so much injustice and suffering, Levine now uses that energy and the practice of Buddhism to awaken his natural wisdom and compassion. While Levine comes to embrace the same spiritual tradition as his father, bestselling author Stephen Levine, he finds his most authentic expression in connecting the seemingly opposed worlds of punk and Buddhism. As Noah Levine delved deeper into Buddhism, he chose not to reject the punk scene, instead integrating the two worlds as a catalyst for transformation. Ultimately, this is an inspiring story about maturing, and how a hostile and lost generation is finally finding its footing. This provocative report takes us deep inside the punk scene and moves from anger, rebellion, and self-destruction, to health, service to others, and genuine spiritual growth.
Book Synopsis The Workings of Kamma by : The Pa-Auk Tawya Sayadaw
Download or read book The Workings of Kamma written by The Pa-Auk Tawya Sayadaw and published by Pa-Auk Meditation Centre (Singapore). This book was released on 2012-10-31 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the years, as he has encountered 'Western Buddhists', meditation master the Most Venerable Pa-Auk Tawya Sayadaw has seen the need for a thorough explanation of the workings of kamma in English. To that end he has composed The Workings of Kamma. It is a detailed analysis and discussion of the workings of kamma, in accordance with the Pali Texts: Vinaya, suttas, Abhidhamma, and the authoritative commentaries and subcommentaries. First, the Most Venerable Sayadaw gives a detailed discussion of how beings run on from life to life because of a belief in self, founded in craving and ignorance: he explains how those two factors are prime movers in the working of kamma. Next, he gives a comprehensive and practical analysis of the workings of kamma according to the roots of consciousness. That includes a practical and systematic analysis of the three merit-work bases: offering, morality, and meditation. Then, he analyses the ten courses of unwholesome and wholesome kamma: killing, stealing, sexual misconduct, etc., and non-killing, non-stealing, etc. He discusses also the results of kamma: rebirth in hell, as a ghost, animal, human-, or celestial being. Mundane wholesome kamma unique to a Buddha's Dispensation he discusses as knowledge and conduct: necessary for future attainment of Nibbāna. Afterwards, he explains The Buddha's twelve categories of kamma: four for time of effect, four for order of effect, and four for function of effect. And he discusses how they operate over past, future, and present, and how their workings depend also on the achievement/failure of a certain rebirth, appearance, time, and means. Then comes a lengthy discussion of 'The Small Kamma-Analysis Sutta'. There The Buddha discusses how kamma accounts for the superiority/ inferiority of people. Next is a discussion of how a being's kamma 'paints a picture' of a being, who is in fact nothing more than the five aggregates. And finally, there is a detailed discussion of the gradual unworking of the potency of kamma with the insight knowledges leading up to the Stream-Entry Path Knowledge, etc. up to Arahantship. It ends with a detailed discussion of the Arahant's Parinibbāna, and what this means in practical terms. The Most Venerable Sayadaw gives many examples, with continuous reference to the Pali Texts. He cites and explains also the dangers of holding to a wrong view that denies the workings of kamma. And he explains the necessity for seeing the workings of kamma oneself with direct knowledge, explaining that one is otherwise unable to understand the Second Noble Truth: the Noble Truth of the Origin of Suffering. There is also a detailed analysis of the transition from one life to the next, and many charts help the reader understand the explanations on the practical level of consciousness and mental factors.

Book Synopsis Magic & Mysticism In Tibet by : J. H. Brennan
Download or read book Magic & Mysticism In Tibet written by J. H. Brennan and published by New Age Books. This book was released on 2010-07 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Generations of isolated Tibetan monks have devoted their lives to an unparalleled investigation of the human mind and soul. Over many centuries, as Buddhism blended with Bon, the aboriginal shamanic religion of Tibet, a great esoteric tradition evolved. In this revised and ex-panded version of Occult Tibet, the pro-lific and eclectic J.H. Brennan surveys this vast spiritual heritage born in the shadows of the Himalayas. The evolutionary result is apparent in the Tibetan languages, which is choc-a-bloc with different terms for (to the average Westerner) incomprehensibly subtle levels of meditation and trance. Generations of monks, sequestered in monasteries that sometimes reached the size of small towns, devoted their lives to an investigation of the human mind that is literally unparalleled anywhere on earth. Where Western psychology chose the path of theory and investigation, these men became psychonauts, mounting a personal exploration of inner space that carried them to realms of strangeness ranging from the development of near miraculous powers to the contemplation of ultimate reality. This book explores their findings. It presents a unique and fascinating view of Tibetan culture and spirituality, Tibetan magic and Mysticism bringing the ancient magical techniques of Tibet to the magicians and mystics of the West.Delhi,
Book Synopsis Buddhism and Science by : Jargal Dorj
Download or read book Buddhism and Science written by Jargal Dorj and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the basic doctrines of the Buddhist teachings is the law of karma. What is the law of karma? Science believes that an animal and a human are the result of the biological evolution theory developed by Charles Darwin. Buddhism believes that the animal and human are the result of reincarnation. In fact, the animals and humans are the result of evolution and reincarnation. In other words, living beings are the result of biological and psychological development, because both the animal and human consist of body and mind. A soul appeared when the sentient beings emerged in the universe and with this information about the actions-karma taken during their life. This information persists in the soul. Even if the karma does not grow in this life, either happiness or suffering, after the death of the animal and human the soul with karma doesn't die or fade away. It is reborn in one of the 6 animal species of the non-eternal universe depending on their karma, and still exists in the universe from one birth to another birth. If people develop their minds and healthy actions, they may arise in rebirth and even be reborn as the Buddha or God. If people have an unhealthy mind, the actions that they take can to reduce their rebirth and even be reborn as hell, as a devil. Buddhist teachings describe it as the law of karma. Karma is the seed of mental, physical and verbal actions. Generally speaking, karma covers all the information about the actions committed by the living creatures, in their past and present lifetime. Until now, not only ordinary people but even scientists have not believed and accepted the law of karma. This is the main reason some people say that the Buddhist religion makes people stupid and some religions say that the Buddhist religion is misleading people. This is due to lack of scientific evidence for the law of karma. We have proved and verified the existence of the law of karma in this book with the help of Set theory and quantum physics. The book contains 3 parts and 15 chapters. In the first part, we have proved and verified the law of karma by using Set theory, while the following two conditions: first, the existence of three types of things in a non-eternal universe: matter / body, spirit / mind and imperfect cluster elements (body-mind), second, the occurrence of separation of mind and body when people and animals die. In the second part, we proved and verified the first condition and the soul with karma continues to exist in Samsara as the Wheel of Dharma or exists as the law of motion of animated matter-soul. And we demonstrate that the Buddhist philosophy has a dualist and dialectic character. In the Part 3, we proved and verified the second condition that the body and mind of humans and animals are separated, when they die by using Quantum physics, and it has an empirical testament and its own unique interpretation. Also, we demonstrate that the life is rational combination of evolution and reincarnation. The Buddhist philosophy assumes that there are non-eternal and eternal universes and they have their own objects and phenomena. We demonstrate that there are non-eternal, eternal and neutral universe and describe their facts and phenomena. At the end, we demonstrate the Buddhist teachings about how to reduce the suffering and improve the happiness and rebirth and enlightenment as well as three levels. The Buddha Gautama found the natural law of karma or the origin, development, degradation and death of living creatures through enlightenment over 2,500 years ago. But people have studied it as a religious doctrine in this period due to the lack of scientific evidence. At this time, we have proved the law, therefore, our duty is to extend this knowledge to people regardless of thier religion. Learning about the law of karma is not only useful for personal development, but also vital to improve the ethics and morality of human social development.
Download or read book Grist for the Mill written by Ram Dass and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2014-02-11 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Ram Dass, one of America’s most beloved spiritual figures and bestselling author of Be Here Now and Be Love Now, comes this timeless classic about the experience of being and the risks and rewards of our spiritual path. Originally published in 1976, Grist for the Mill offers a deep spiritual journey of self-discovery, and a universal understanding of what it means to "be" and to grow as human beings. The book is fully revised with a new introduction. As Ram Dass puts it, "When the faith is strong enough it is sufficient just to be. It’s a journey towards simplicity, towards quietness, towards a kind of joy that is not in time. It’s a journey that has taken us from primary identification with our body and our psyche, on to an identification with God, and ultimately beyond identification."
Book Synopsis KARMA Its Applicability And Relevance In Day-To-Day Life by : LALJEE VERMA
Download or read book KARMA Its Applicability And Relevance In Day-To-Day Life written by LALJEE VERMA and published by One Point Six Technologies Pvt Ltd. This book was released on with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every act is part of the karmic process; bound to have its effect. Karma is considered the all-pervading, universal law of existence. It perhaps finds its greatest relevance in the sentient minds of humans. The karma doctrine cannot be viewed from a religious standpoint; it is relevant to all, regardless of sect, community or beliefs. No one can claim to live life without performing an action – from simple life sustaining activities to highly complex scientific or spiritual enquiry. What we do dictates what we get in this life...and the next…and the next…till we are freed of our karmic burden. Genetic and transmigrating influences are, even today, subjects of research and discussion. The quantum and quality a living being brings from previous karma, if any, is a matter of intense debate, as is the effect that actions may imprint on our conscience. Deliberation on contentious issues is basic to human nature and has been part of human discourse from the dawn of civilisation. The attempt to define karma has consumed immense mental resource over the millennia, along with the search to understand the essential meaning of life. In the vast literature which exists on the subject, pundits from almost every society and religious group in the world, have attempted to explain the significance and validity of karma, or its lack.
