Mindfulness is the practice of finding that realm, dwelling there, and cultivating the ability to live completely in the present, deeply aware and appreciative of life." - from the author's Preface. "This enigmatically titled anthology offers numerous delights and valuable evidence that great poetic variety, from haiku and witty two liners to page-long discourses, has by now given distinct expression to Western Buddhism." - Publisher’s Weekly.

Download or read book Emily Dickinson, Accidental Buddhist written by Rupert C. Allen and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emily Dickinson, at an early age, became enlightened. Ego-transcendence awakened her to the Higher Self, unleashing a torrent of creative energy that sustained her for 35 years, producing hundreds of poems dealing with the phenomena of cosmic awareness. This also made her a heretic, for she (like the Buddhists) recognizes no creator god, much less a deathless ego-self in the form of a soul; hence the secrecy of her poetic enterprise. Over the years she made booklets of her poems and stashed them away, to be discovered posthumously. Dickinson's worldview was first described by the Buddha, and has been examined at length in countless Buddhist commentaries, which makes the dharma accessible to rational understanding. This provides the cognitive framework of Emily Dickinson: Accidental Buddhist. It consists of lucid close readings demystifying man of Dickinson's most "enigmatic" poems. The author, RC Allen, is a retired humanities professor, and a veteran student of the Spanish transcendentalist poets. His experience and familiarity with archetypal discourse are now devoted to the Dickinson oeuvre. His previous book, Solitary Prowess: The Transcendentalist Poetry of Emily Dickinson (Saru Press International), appeared in 2005.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a collection of 100 poems covering the first 100 days of Zen meditation practice in the confines of a countryside Buddhist temple. These are not poems of enlightenment and peace or worldly observations. These are poems of struggle and discomfort. These are not poems of book learning and priestly discussions, but of simple observations sitting in meditation, eating in silence and cleaning the hallways. These are poems of celebration of a new world that any Buddhist practitioner will enjoy reading. Also, throughout the book are photos of Buddhist and Shinto temples in Japan. Neither the poems or photos are previously published.

Download or read book Scuffed-Up Shoes written by John M Travis and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-13 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poems John shares in this collection are deeply personal. They offer a glimpse into decades of devoted practice--living out the teachings of the Buddhist masters of our age. His poems transport readers to a cave in Nepal, a hut in Tibet, and along the banks of a Wyoming river. But, perhaps, John's greatest gift is his direct transmission of the Dharma to his audience. Inside the pages of this book readers get a good look inside the mind of a man on a spiritual oddessy. It depicts reflections on navigating a Buddhist trek of human experience. Filled with devotional insights (sometimes raw, often humorous and painful, and occasionally rebellious) the book is a delightful read and a refreshing taste of spirituality. In this rich sampling of John's poems--64 of them--he provides deep insight into Buddhist teachings and the path to relieve suffering. The book's compact size makes this collection a wonderful trekking companion. SCUFFED-UP SHOES Longing for ground, Scuffed-up shoes, A flower opens.

Download or read book The Poetry of Impermanence, Mindfulness, and Joy written by John Brehm and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-06-06 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 125 poetic companions, from Basho to Billy Collins, Saigyo to Shakespeare. The Poetry of Impermanence, Mindfulness, and Joy received the Spirituality & Practice Book Award for 50 Best Spiritual Books in 2017 by Spirituality and Practice Website. The poems expertly gathered here offer all that one might hope for in spiritual companionship: wisdom, compassion, peacefulness, good humor, and the ability to both absorb and express the deepest human emotions of grief and joy. The book includes a short essay on “Mindful Reading” and a meditation on sound from editor John Brehm—helping readers approach the poems from an experiential, non-analytical perspective and enter into the mindful reading of poetry as a kind of meditation. The Poetry of Impermanence, Mindfulness, and Joy offers a wide-ranging collection of 129 ancient and modern poems unlike any other anthology on bookshelves today. It uniquely places Buddhist poets like Han Shan, Tu Fu, Saigyo, Ryokan, Basho, Issa, and others alongside modern Western poets one would not expect to find in such a collection—poets like Wallace Stevens, Robert Frost, Elizabeth Bishop, William Stafford, Denise Levertov, Jack Gilbert, Ellen Bass, Billy Collins, and more. What these poems have in common, no matter whether they are explicitly Buddhist, is that all reflect the essential truths the Buddha articulated 2,500 years ago. The book provides an important poetic complement to the many prose books on mindfulness practice—the poems here both reflect and embody the dharma in ways that can’t be matched by other modes of writing. It’s unique features include an introduction that discusses the themes of impermanence, mindfulness, and joy and explores the relationship between them. Biographical notes place the poets in historical context and offer quotes and anecdotes to help readers learn about the poets’ lives.

Download or read book Until Nirvana's Time written by Trent Walker and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2022-12-27 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique Buddhist tradition, accessible in English for the first time—translations of forty-five Cambodian Dharma songs, with contextualizing essays and a link to audio of stunning vocal performances. Until Nirvana’s Time is the first collection of traditional Cambodian Buddhist literature available in English, presenting original translations of forty-five poems. Introduced, translated, and contextualized by scholar and vocalist Trent Walker, the Dharma songs in this book reveal a distinctive Southeast Asian genre of devotion, mourning, and contemplation. Their soaring melodies have inspired Cambodians for generations, whether in daily prayers or all-night rituals. Trained in oral and written lineages in Cambodia, Walker presents a carefully curated range of poems from the seventeenth to twentieth centuries that capture the transformative wisdom of the Khmer Buddhist tradition. Many of the poems, having been transcribed from old cassette tapes or fragile bark-paper manuscripts, are printed here for the first time. A link to recordings of selected songs in English and Khmer accompanies the book. These frank and compelling poems offer mirrors to our own lives—even as they challenge Buddhist conventions of how to die, how to grieve, and how to repay the ones we love.
