Rupwate and published by Dorrance Publishing Company. This book was released on 2023-04-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About the Book Based on the original scripture of Christianity and Buddhism, Rt. Rev. Dr. Daniel D. Rupwate analyzes the Bible and the original teachings of the Buddha in his own word in the Pali Canon of the Buddha or in Tripitika. Aiming to persuade researchers and religion students to use original scripture rather than secondary sources, Rupwate shows how this approach reveals a true teaching of religion. With this comparative study, readers will know the true teachings of each religion which will, inevitably, enable them to choose the spiritual path of their salvation for truth. About the Author Rt. Rev. Dr. Daniel D. Rupwate served as a minister of the Methodist Church for thirty-four years. Rupwate wanted Christians to know the doctrines and practices of their faith, solely based on the Bible. He preached more than 325 textual sermons to propagate the word of God. He also published fifteen books in India to educate theological students and preachers in the concerns of the biblical doctrines and the practices. Rupwate is interested in dialogues with universal religions and he wrote this book to enter into dialogue between Christians and Buddhists.

Book Synopsis Dependent Arising In Context by : Linda S. Blanchard
Download or read book Dependent Arising In Context written by Linda S. Blanchard and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2013-01-05 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dependent arising is the backbone of the Buddha's doctrine -- all the other lessons he taught relate to it, or refer to it in some way -- yet it is the least understood. There is a confusion of theories as to its meaning: is it about three lives, or one? about rebirth or moment-to-moment creation of the ego? Yet when dependent arising is seen in the light of the central myth of the Buddha's day (the creation of First Man and how that relates to our creation of self) the whole structure becomes much clearer, and many of the points of confusion are straightened out. People have long asked, for example, how the 'actions' of the second step precede consciousness in the third, or why we seem to be being told that we would want to completely stop consciousness, and contact with the world, and feeling. All these questions are easily answered when we see where the structure came from, and what the lesson is really about.

Book Synopsis Right Concentration by : Leigh Brasington
Download or read book Right Concentration written by Leigh Brasington and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2015-10-13 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical guidebook for meditators interested in achieving the states of bliss and deep focus associated with the Buddhist jhānas One of the elements of the Eightfold Path is Right Concentration: the one-pointedness of mind that, together with ethics, livelihood, meditation, and more, leads to the ultimate freedom from suffering. So how does one achieve Right Concentration? According to the Buddha himself, the jhānas—a series of eight progressive altered states of consciousness—are an essential method. But because the jhānas can usually be achieved only through prolonged meditation retreat, they have been shrouded in mystery for years. Not anymore. In Right Concentration, Leigh Brasington takes away the mystique and gives instructions on how to achieve them in plain, accessible language. He notes the various pitfalls to avoid along the way and provides a wealth of material on the theory of jhāna practice—all geared toward the practitioner rather than the scholar. As Brasington proves, these states of bliss and concentration are attainable by anyone who devotes the time and sincerity of practice necessary to realize them.
Book Synopsis The Noble Eightfold Path by : Bhikkhu Bodhi
Download or read book The Noble Eightfold Path written by Bhikkhu Bodhi and published by Buddhist Publication Society. This book was released on 2010-12-01 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Buddha's teachings center around two basic principles. One is the Four Noble Truths, in which the Buddha diagnoses the problem of suffering and indicates the treatment necessary to remedy this problem. The other is the Noble Eightfold Path, the practical discipline he prescribes to uproot and eliminate the deep underlying causes of suffering. The present book offers, in simple and clear language, a concise yet thorough explanation of the Eightfold Path. Basing himself solidly upon the Buddha's own words, the author examines each factor of the path to determine exactly what it implies in the way of practical training. Finally, in the concluding chapter, he shows how all eight factors of the path function in unison to bring about the realization of the Buddhist goal: enlightenment and liberation.
